It doesn't have an intro video and features a different menu and character selection screen from the EU version of Blood Lines.

Since Radical Entertainment is/was based in Canada thry may have started development for an NTSC release and it eventually became a PAL only title.

Still have some more work to do ]]>

Blood Lines characters are: Alex, Maya, Khafka, Lupo, Walker, Reiko, Bomani, Jon, Angor, Daria, and J.O.E. Some names may be changed due to localization or just changed during development. So you were correct to assume that this may be more than just a bootleg. I mean, it might very well be, but that doesn't make the contents less important.  

Hmm... Maybe we can get the Blood Lines files to compare. Unmatching filenames could be typical to standard development. ]]>

Just looked into some of the textwork on the back, and that points to "Master of Monsters: Disciples of Gaia" in which the logo on the back was also gypped from. ]]>

Also, going back to the bootleg aspect, it's not the correct typography/layout that's on standard PS1 disc or cover. Over-lapping layers, no UPC, no real blurb on the back, fuzzy print job... while pretty good for the most part, but it's not real.

Looking at the logo from the back, that came from a game called "Master of Monsters: Disciples of Gaia", which is a strategy-based game, much like Civ II-- which makes me think there's some sort of correlation between that and the CFG file.

Other words, the bootleggers probably just Strategy game fans and just 1:1 copied Civ II's disc files and called it a day, not knowing that that's not how you copy a PS1 game. ]]>

There is a psx.exe file but I get a not compatible error with my current pc, might try my laptop later.

No .cnf file only .cgf and .cpe ]]>

Alternatively, is there simply a psx.exe file in the main? ]]>
