I have read the forums and applied several tricks I have found there in order to make a backup of Nicktoons Unite for PS2 and so far I have been unsuccessfull. The software I am using are as follows:

DVD Decrypter -to decrypt
ISO Buster -to "rip from iso" and place in alternate
folder. Also to veiw the intial order of folders and files.
DummyFile -I replaced the DUMMY.DAT with 600 mb "]fake-filler-file" if you will.
CD-DVD Generator 1.5 -to list the files as they appeared in iso buster and generate the .lst files.

Then I used the dos prompt to combine the two resulting *.lst files into one iso and burned the image onto a disk using nero.
The burn was 99.70% successful onto a:
Manufacturer : VDSPMSAB 01
Disc Type : DVD-R
Usage : General
Recording Speed : 2 X - 4 X
The second sector (in the begining) of the disk was unreadable resulting in the - .3% success.
After all this I still received a "Not Valid PS2 disc" message from my Magic Gate 3.6.
I wonder, was I supposed to created a false DUMMY.DAT to replace the intial DUMMY.DAT in wordpad and the put the 600MB filler on the bottom of the list renamed to something like DUMMY1.DAT?
Or perhaps that .3% spelled my doom.
Has anyone else made a successfull copy of this game and if so, could you tell me the exact process you used?

When you're replacing dummy files, you have to open a new txt document, put a space in the begginning so it's just a 1k file with a blank space in it and name it EXACTLY the same thing as the dummy file you took out with ISO buster. Then, when you have all the dummy files duplicated with tiny little txt files named exactly what their counterparts were, you rebuild the ISO in the same exact order it was once in and throw out the large dummy files you originally started with.

Thanks for the prompt response. But after 15 hours straight of working it I read a single post and realized I just had to copy it straight there was no need for a rebuild. So stupid... so much time wasted...
