Hey,
I'm trying to do the 007:AUF swap to install FMCB. I've already changed the driving.elf, burned, etc. I go to the main menu in 007, insert a slide card into my fat PS2, and slide to the right. The disc tray comes out, the PS2 makes noises as if still trying to read the disc, and before I can swap in my 2nd copy, the main menu freezes. Any help? Thanks

Nevermind. Was using DVD-R's, found a few DVD+R's and worked on the first try. However, a patched ESR game wouldn't work on a DVD+R. Trying a -R now..

Not sure why +R worked for you swap, but now ESR does not.

Make sure if using DVD+R to set your BOOKTYPE In your Burning program to DVD-ROM.

Burn it at 4x with imgburn.

Thanks, I'll give it a shot now. Only or DVD+R's left. I have a v4 fat PS2. Would you recommend Verbatim +R's or -R's for a v4?

A V4 PS2 should play DVD+R as long as its BOOKTYPE is DVD-ROM.

Most PS2 seem to prefer DVD-r, except the newest models doesn't seem to really matter.

And as long as your laser is in good shape and you have had no trouble playing Original DVD or CD games.

I've patched my isos, but so far no success with: Sony DVD+R set to DVD-ROM, TDK DVD-R, Memorex DVD-R. Just ordered some Verbatim DVD-R's..hopefully that'll do it

Hi, have you thus succesfully swapped the original game with the patched copy to install FMCB?

If so, did you mod your ps2 before that in any way (I mean with this that I want to find out if this works with an unmodded ps2 where the only thing changed is the possibility to run games with the lid open [I have ps2 slim btw). I ask this because I wanna try this myself but I don't know if the ps2 will even read a burnt iso without any mod =s)

Thx in advance for reading this,
grtz Blehmeh
