with dvd decrypter i decrypted rainbow six lockdown ps2 game i had an .iso file after reading many things about how to write a dvd game here on your site i tried many things but it didn´t work!!i used isobuster, dvd decrypter to burn iso on the dvd ``4x ridata -rw´´ (i used rw in order not to use many dvd´s when it will work i´ll burn it on a dvd -r)

i tried the dvd on the ps2 it didnt boot, the message was insert a media ps2 format...


i made a boot cd ``D.G.master 4x-12x rw´´ with Swap Magic that i downloaded from the internet(it was written burn on a cd but it is to boot dvd´s)

i tried the cd on the ps2 it didnt boot, the message was insert a media ps2 format...

(i dont know if i have chipmod on my ps2 i think i dondt thats why i used swap magic but i dont know if i used it well...)
i saw on your site a little explanation about Swipe/Slide Card on how to move the pin before using swap magic. i didn´t do it yet

if i do is it enought for playing the game?

there is a difference between the versions of swap magic in accordance to my ps2 version??

plz can you give me the explanation step by step off all the things i can do starting from my .iso file.

tx for helping me

Swap magic has to be the original disk,
And you HAVE to have a way to open the tray,
without pressing the eject button (Slide card , fliptop , or slimtool).

Copies of swapmagic will NOT work.

Also you CANNOT usw RW media in ANY CIRCUMSTANCE.
Simply put the ps2 CANNOT read RW media.

If you have a Mod-chip installed,
You dont need swap magic as your games
should Direct Boot with no problems.

Swap magic is for those without a mod installed,
But for them to work they have to be the original disks.

Use -R or +r.
RW media wont work.
Good luck.

ps2 can play backup DVD movies,
As long as they are in DVD video format.

You can use many programs to covert the video to
dvd complaint format.

I mainly use Nero Vision or dvd santa myself for converting video.

Use better media.
Burn at the slowest supported speed using DVD Decrypter.
1x isnt always better but quality media makes a difference.

You should be able to backup tekken 5 with DVD Decrypter no problem.


http://www.digitalfaq.com/media/dvdmedia.htm

The following list is in preference order.

MXLRG01, MXLRG02 = Maxell = (-R) ... be aware of unbranded fakes
MCC = Mitsubishi Chemicals = (-R)<-----------------VERBATIM MY CHOICE #1
TDKG02 = TDK Corp = (-R) ... be aware of unbranded fakes
TAIYOYUDEN or YUDEN = Taiyo Yuden = (-R)<--------------FUJIFILM (made in japan) MY CHOICE #2

Decent discs, though not perfect, about 85-95%
success rate:

RICOHJPN = Ritek or Ricoh = (+R)
SONYD04 = Sony = (-R) ... be aware of unbranded fakes
PRODISC = Prodisc Media = (+RW)
INFODISC = Infodisc Media = (+RW)
RITEKG04 = Ritek = (-R)
