After extracting the 7z file you get several files:

Readme.txt
ECCO_DOTF_CE_BY_XIAOPANG.CDI

If one of the above files is missing, you're dealing with an
incomplete and altered archive of this game. Better delete it and
look for the full release elsewhere.

### Ripped:                                                        ###

One 50sec CDDA-track, which didn't seem to be used by the game anywhere
and one useless demo had to go.

### What's the deal with the Complete Editions?                    ###
######################################################################

My first 99min rips were kinda unoptimized due to external 
circumstances. I decided to re-rip some of them. To distinguish
the new rips from my older ones, I called them "Complete Editions". 
They have nothing or no essential game data ripped out and 
thus preserve almost all or even 100% of the quality of the original 
game.

In this section I will honour people, who were kind enough to donate
money or hardware:

Thanks goes to Iron so far 

The reason why I'm accepting donations is, because ripping is not a 
cheap hobby. I need several Dreamcasts to test the rips on and I need
quite some of those expensive 99min blanks before a rip finally works.

Also, donations will keep me motivated enough to keep doing this work.

If you want to encourage me, you can donate to me through Paypal at 
the following address 

Xiaopang(at)web(dot)de


I'm also accepting hardware donations. Anything is welcome as I can 
use it to replace worn out stuff. Contact me by using the above mail
address. Also, I'm much more likely to take suggestions about rips 
from donators  Happy motivating

Thanks goes to:

Me, for bringing you one of the best titles for DC with full stereo
sound intact. Downsampling or mono-izing that one would be a crime, so 
enjoy
