if you rebuild it seems to play better for swap magic users.

ballzonya, yes in order to play your PS2 back ups you will need either a chip, or to use a boot disc (Swap Magic) with a flip top or slidecard.
You can get them all over the net.

jaxxpro, use dvd decrpt to read your orginal image, then use isobuster to rebuild or shrink the iso file, then use Nero 6 to burn your new isobuster image to a dvd.

Hey all.
I have been having the same problem. Game just gets stuck at 'Loading' screen.
I am using Swap Magic 3.3.
I have noticed a lot of people on different sites say to rebuild the .ISO and it works great.
But no one ever gives any instructions on how to rebuild the .iso.
If anyone could please tell me & others how this is done. it would be much appreciated.
Thanx,
Andrew.
Obie.

***COPY AND PASTED***ISO REBUILDER***
1) COPY THE PS2 GAME DVD TO YOUR HARD DRIVE AS AN ISO IMAGE.
a)OPEN DVD Decrypter.
b)IN THE DESTINATION AREA, CLICK ON THE FOLDER ICON TO CHOOSE BOTH A NAME AND A STORAGE LOCATION FOR THE ISO IMAGE.
c)CLICK ON MODE > ISO > READ.
d)CLICK ON THE DVD ICON TO START THE PROCESS.
e)WAIT UNTIL THE PROCESS IS FINISHED THEN CLOSE DECRYPTER AND GO TO STEP 2.
2) EXTRACT THE FILES FROM THE ISO IMAGE.
a) CREATE A NEW FOLDER ON YOUR HARD DRIVE TO STORE THE
EXTRACTED FILES.
b) OPEN ISO BUSTER AND CLICK ON FILE > OPEN IMAGE FILE.
c) NAVIGATE TO THE ISO FILE CREATED IN STEP 1 AND CLICK ON ?OPEN?.
d) HOLD THE CONTROL KEY ON YOUR KEYBOARD AND LEFT CLICK
EVERY FILE AND FOLDER IN THE LIST.
e) ONCE ALL THE FILES ARE HIGHLIGHTED, RIGHT CLICK ON ONE OF THEM AND CLICK ON ?EXTRACT OBJECTS?.
f) NAVIGATE TO THE NEW FOLDER THAT YOU CREATED ON YOUR
HARD DRIVE AND CLICK ?OK?.
g) WAIT FOR THE PROCESS TO FINISH THEN CLOSE ISOBUSTER.
3) CONVERT THE EXTRACTED FILES INTO 2 BIN FILES.
a) OPEN CDVDGEN.
b) SELECT ?CREATE NEW PROJECT? AND THEN SELECT ?DVD-ROM
MASTER DISC?. DRAG CDVDGEN TO THE LEFT SIDE OF YOUR
SCREEN.
c) NAVIGATE TO THE FOLDER THAT YOU CREATED ON YOUR HARD
DRIVE BACK IN STEP 2 AND OPEN IT ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF YOUR SCREEN.
d) SET THE WIDTH OF THAT WINDOW SO THAT IT IS ONLY 1 FILE WIDE. THIS WILL PLACE THE FILES INTO THE SAME ORDER AS THEY WERE ON THE GAME DISK BUT YOU SHOULD CHECK THEM FOR CORRECT ORDER JUST IN CASE.
e) CLICK ON EDIT > SELECT ALL.
f) DRAG ALL THE FILES INTO THE RIGHT SIDE OF CDVDGEN.
g) LOOK FOR A SLUS OR SLES FILE AND WRITE DOWN THE FULL NAME AND THEN CLICK ON THE ?VOLUME? TAB IN CDVDGEN.
h)TYPE SLUS OR SLES (WHICHEVER YOUR FILE NAME IS) INTO THE 1ST BOX NEAR "DISC NAME"
i) TYPE ALL OF THE NUMBERS FROM YOUR FILE NAME, WITHOUT THE PERIOD, INTO THE 2ND BOX.
j) TYPE PLAYSTATION FOR THE PRODUCER NAME AND SELECT THE APPROPRIATE LICENSE AREA.
k)CLICK ON "REC...".
l)SELECT YOUR DESIRED STORAGE LOCATION AND NAME THE FILE STAR.IML
m)YOU WILL GET 2 ERRORS, JUST CLICK OK FOR BOTH.
(If you get one error message, then you have to download ?WNASPI32.DLL? www.Nero.com/us/WNASPI32.DLL.html
and put it in your windows system 32 folder.
n)THE RECORDING SCREEN WILL POP UP, CLICK ON FILE > EXPORT IMAGE AND SAVE IT ON ONE OF YOUR HARD DRIVES (NOT IN A FOLDER) NAME IT STAR.LST
o) WHEN IT'S FINISHED, YOU WILL HAVE 2 FILES NAMED STAR.000 AND STAR.001
p)CLOSE CDVDGEN AND GO TO STEP 4.
4) MERGE THE .000 AND .001 FILES INTO A SINGLE ISO IMAGE.
THE EASIEST WAY TO MERGE THE FILES IS FROM A COMMAND SCREEN.
YOU WON'T HAVE TO INSTALL AN EXTRA PROGRAM THAT MAY NEED
EXTRA FILES TO WORK AND COME ON, ADMIT IT, DOS IS SO MUCH FUN!!
a)CLICK THE WINDOWS START BUTTON AND CLICK ON RUN.
b)TYPE CMD IN THE BOX AND HIT ENTER.
c)CHANGE THE DIRECTORY TO MATCH WHERE YOUR STAR.000 AND STAR.001
FILES ARE STORED.
EXAMPLE- IF THEY ARE ON THE C DRIVE, TYPE CD C:\ AND HIT ENTER.
IF THEY ARE ON ANOTHER DRIVE, TYPE THE DRIVE LETTER WITH A COLON AND HIT ENTER.
d)ONCE YOU HAVE THE CORRECT DIRECTORY-
TYPE COPY/B STAR.000 + STAR.001 STAR.ISO AND THEN HIT ENTER.
e)WHEN IT'S FINISHED YOU WILL HAVE A NEW ISO IMAGE NAMED STAR.ISO THAT YOU CAN NOW BURN IN STEP 5.
5) BURN THE NEW ISO IMAGE ONTO A DVD.
USE YOUR FAVORITE DVD BURNING UTILITY.

No need to rebuild MX-VS-ATV
I burned with DVD Decrypter and have played many times with no crashes, well at least the game doesn't crash, me on the other hand, hahaha
the only thing about this game is that the load times are horrible. It takes 3-4 times longer to load up a race in season mode than any other game i have ever played.

I noticed that the load times seem really long, also. I'm using a DMS4.

yep, mine has a DMS4 Pro chip, but i don't think that is the problem. I will have to try it on my V7 to see if it is the same, but i assume it is. I have no problems with any other games taking that long to load.
P.S. the new ToxicOS v0.3 is due to be released this week for the DMS4 Pro!!!!
Now you will be able to play DVD9 Back ups and much more.

I'm using the lite, but they're saying that 1.3 is coming out also. Hey steimy, this is a little o.t., but do you happen to know if the dms will load games directly off the hdd? I'm not new to the ps2's, mod chips, etc., but I've never bothered with a hdd. Just read recently about playing from the drive help save the laser and (duh)this makes sence. So I've already ordered hd advance and I'm heading out soon to pick up a 80gig hitatchi that's on sale.

My load times are perfectly normal. I burned the game with DVD Decryptor at 2.4x and load the game with my Swap Magic v3.3 discs. Loading times actually seem shorter then the original game. I burned Burnout 3 to a 16x Verbatim DVD+R and the loading times where horribly slow. So I reburned it to a 8x Memorex DVD+R and now the game works perfectly. Make sure you use good media when your burning a game. It really makes a difference.

hey all,
thanx to 'FreeGamer' for pasting the info.
I have done that. And all works great now.
'steimy', i originally burnt it with nero & dvd decrypt. with the same result (both at 2x, the slowest my drive will go.
'CagadaMan', you are right about the load times.
The rebuilt copy definately loads quicker than the original. I have no idea why.
I was also told by a friend the rebuilt version loads quicker on his DMS3 modded ps2 aswell.
So while burning with dvd-decrypter may work for some people, you better have good patience when playing it.
Solution for me:
1) Rebuild.
2) Burnt with Nero at 2x.
3) Boot with Swap Magic 3.3.
4) Play Until i feel like throwing the controller at the tele. (lol)
Goodluck all,
& thanx for all your help.
Obie.

Has any backed up a copy of their PS2 games using DVD-R's or does it have to +R's?

Yes, all i use is DVD-R discs
Phillips 8X DVD-R to be exact. I rarely ever use +R unless a friend gives me some freebie's. They work too.

Also if you have Nero there is a MUCH easier way to rebuild the game, as told to me by Minnwild. I tried it and it worked like a charm.
Step 1.
Decrypt the ps2 game to your hard drive using dvd decryptor.
Step 2.
Open up Isobuster and load in the image file.
Step 3.
Hold shift and highlight all the game files and put them in a folder.
Step 4.
Open up Nero burning rom and create a new UDF/ISO dvd (It's the last one in the list). Drop all the game files into Nero in the same order as it is listed in Isobuster. Just keep Isobuster open as a reference when you do this. Nero will change the order of the files graphically, however they burn in the order that you dropped them in.
Step 5.
Name the image and burn it at 4x.
Step 6.
Presto, you've rebuilt and burned a PS2 game. Play it.
