thats cool, the more i read, the more i find that every machione is different and just because one person cant get a certain madia to work, that dont mean it wont for another person. hell my PS2 booted dvd-rw's when i got my first no-solder chip. but i've red that lots of people cant boot them at all.

I am just getting started. Was wondering about import CDs. Do I need the swap magic disks or will just getting a Flip Top work?

Max Payne works for me too all the way through. I make ALL my backups using DVD Decrypter - it's the fastest way.

BTW, I have a Messiah Pro 2. Burned on Ritek's DVD+R media on a Sony DRU-500A - no probs.

just burn an exact 1:1 copy. you'll have to do cd based games, or get a dvd burner for dvd based games.

Ok I dunno if this is a fliptop or a gameshark issue, but here goes:

I have a US ps2 with fliptop and swap magic. I also have the gameshark 2(version 2). Now, normally I play all my backups/imports with just the fliptop/swap magic discs. I use the gameshark2 only when I need codes... however, the gameshark2 either with the fliptp OR the knife-trick (no fliptop) will not boot my DVD imports or DVD-R backups... and I need the codes from the GS for those imports/backups.

Is this a gameshark thing then? Do I have to rip my DVD import to a CDR in order to use the swap/knife trick to load the game?

If that's the case, how do I go about downsizing the DVD import... it's already at 1.2 gigs, and I can't just delete files since they are in huge "cvm" files.

Edit--
Okay I just read that without a mod chip the TOC limit on booting games w/out a chip is like 630mb... most dvd is way larger. So... I guess as long as I'm depending on the fliptop and no chips I won't be able to load imports/backup DVD thru my GS2?

Apologizing now for being such a noob here... if I had a nice big FAQ to read that explains all this I'd probably figure this out :D

hi, i've been hearing about the flip top for some time, and i was wondering if in order to play a cd-r backup (i'm nit sure about dvd-r's) u have to use a boot disc that is bigger then the cdr u are trying to boot, does this hold true to the flip tops, or just the no solders?

the flip top is pretty much the same, you need a boot disc for cd and dvd based backups. the swap magic discs work great.

I dont think that it is possible to copy splinter cell with a flip top. All of the people that have tried get the same problem.

I have read that the 3.6 chip works (and the 3.1) but havent tested it myself

lol no i havent heard anything on them yet...for all i know it could have been a rumor but i imagine they are working on them. Even if you spent $$ on the flip top on disks, you can just buy the disc's for 19 bucks....

Anyone read my post about the website and if it would be helpful? I havent got any info back....let me know if people would use my idea or not

anyone tried making a backup of a backup? Sounds dumb but if my original goes bad and I want another backup, can you copy the dvd from the backup dvd or only the original...

anyone tried this?

thanks

works with DVD's too. it's nice cause it's already ripped so it's just a 1:1 copy.
