So far I have had a nightmare trying to get a damn game working, tried (unsuccessfully) fight night 3 and splinter cell. Running a 1.5 with umd emulator v0.8
1) Is this common? I mean do they just not work or am i doing something wrong?
This is common, The 2 games fight night round 3 and Splinter Cell ISO's do not work as of yet with 1.5, Syphron filter works though. If you have the ISO, down load DAXZISO loader (psp-hacks.com). Then open the Dax compresser and compress the ISO file into DAX format, make sure you tick compress nc areas for both video & audio. Now install DAX ISO loader as you normall would on a 1.5 psp, follow readme if still unsure. Now Download RunUMD from PSP-hacks.com, when you open the ziped file, double click the RUNUMD folder, not the one with the % on it, now you should find a EBOOT.PBP file. copy that onto the DAXZISO Loader folder which if installed correctly, should be in your root of memory stick. Now after its in there, rename the EBOOT.pbp, to runumd.pbp, now if you hadn't put the Syphron filter DAX file in your ISO folder, do it now. Then unplug the USB cable and run DAX Z ISO Loader. Go to the Syphron filter name, and press [] button, it should show configurations, change the boot method to RunUMD - Load Exec, and allocate tables switched off. Then press start game, hopefully it will work then. Now for furthur use of other compatibility with DAX, check this compatibility list:
I have syphon filter working but I didn't do any of that. The version I have is not an ISO, you just copy all the folders to a blank memory stick. No additional loaders required, it just runs itself from the game menu. Guess its been conveniently "hacked" by someone. Its 900MB in size
how do i convert it to an iso file? i have 16 files, they are not rar files, so WinRAR seems to be useless. sorry guys, this tech stuff is not my forte, hope someone can help me here.
cant even tell what type of files they are. an example of one is lfc-sfdm.001. under that is says 001 File. all the other files read the same with the number at the end increasing.
OK, appaerently my copy runs using RUN UMD 0.01.01A1 experimental by Saturn expedition committee.
It is not an ISO, the game folders are dumped to my memory card along with an X folder. I guess the loader is built into it somehow. I would tell you which folders exactly are on there but I am at work and dont have my USB cable with me.
I guess one of the experts round here knows more about how it is done.
