i was just in the shareaza network and downloaded swapmagic3 iso and you know didnt have nothing to do so i tryed it in pcsx2 0.7 and it works
i can press the buttons and it works like the ps2 version so what im jabbering about is that the ps2 games have a special codec and the swapmagic dont. so we need to find out how to crack it. any help

There is no way that a download of swapmagic will ever work in a ps2.

If you wanted to boot it up then you would need a pressed original version of Swap Magic, or a modchip.

It's common sense, lol.

aint happening buddy

if it is then id like a pic of it please, perhaps a video so i can see it for myself?

we wouldnt all be spending money on swap magic now if we didnt have too...

PS2 games are actually pressed DVD/CD discs, they are not burned. PS2 games use the Burst Cutting Area (BCA) of the disc to identify themselves to the PS2 unit.

The BCA is not part of a disc that you can burn on, it is only replicated on pressed discs.
