Can someone tell me what would be the best cheating device to buy that would allow me to play backup ps2 games with cheats enabled. I have a fliptop v7 ps2 console and I use swap magic 3 to play my backups. Now I would like to purchase a cheat device to play with my backups. I know that gameshark, action replay, and codebreakers are some of the cheating devices that are out. But I am not sure if they will work with ps2 backup games. What are suggestions do you have for my situation? Thanks for your help.

action replay max, will work with your back ups.
but to be frank, why are you wanting to cheat.
all your doing is spoiling online gaming for everybody else.
if its just for single playing, i still dont see the point of cheating.
maybe if you brought a psone and played games like monsters inc or some thing similair you would be able to cope without cheating.

You don't have to worry about the cheats working. I have Action Replay Evo, Codebreaker, and Gameshark and they all work. The reason why I have then is so that which ever ones releases the new cheats fastest. Umm. I have a fliptop Version 9 ps2.

Warman all you need to do is purchase one of the Cheat cds (I would recommend Action Replay) and us it as normal.
Just select the cheats you want and start game. Then put in your swapmagic DVD and swap that with Dvdloader. Then insert the swapmagic DVD as a toc. then Press X. Wait a little bit. After that just swap the swapmagic DVD with the game and the codes should work.

Yeah the reason why it takes so long to load is bc of the cheats itself.
I found that the more cheats you have on the Disc the longer it will take.

So if someone has Codebreaker i suggest you just leave the Codes on your USB drive.

What cheat device do you have and why version is it

As for how to upload cheats to the game you will need to be more specific.

I'll try to help you as best as I can

i think that is a very long way to do it, can't you just load your swap magic disc up, but in your back up of your cheat disc, after selecting cheats, but in your back up game? (or load your orignal cheat disc before using swap magic instead of the backup and after selecting cheats change it with swap magic then put in your game?) the reason i am saying this is i do it this way when playing psx back ups and it works fine, i don't know if it is the saw with ps2 though.

also i mainly use AR max for all of my cheating needs wont it work with backups? or will i have to use another cheat device? if thats so will i have to use game shark, i don't really want to because i want to be able to play pal games and gameshark realy don't support pal games...

it's up to him if he wants to cheat, he didn't say in the first place that he was going to use cheating for online? theres nothing wrong with cheating, he is using cheats on his ps2 not yours, it only makes the game more intresting this way, besides most online games you can't use cheats online becasue of the DNAS.

Action replay max works with swap magic,
Here is how you do it

AR MAX


DVD BACKUPS
1. Boot AR MAX
2. Select the codes you want
3. Select Start Game
4. The cd/dvd drive will now eject automatically.
If you have a version 1-8 ps2 replace the AR MAX with the swap magic cd.
If you have a version 9/10 ps2 replace the AR MAX with the Swap magic dvd.
Once you have made the appropriate swap press eject to close the cd/dvd drive and press x.
5. Once the Swap magic cd/dvd has loaded do the following...
If you have a version 1-8 ps2 swap the swap magic cd with the cdloader using ea method and press x.
If you have a version 9/10 ps2 swap the swap magic dvd with the dvdloader using ea method and press x.
6. Once the cd/dvdloader has loaded press eject and swap the cd/dvdloader with a high toc original such as the swap magic dvd and press eject to close.
7. Wait about 7 seconds and press x.
8. Once the screen that says "swap dvdr by ea method" comes up swap the high toc original with your dvd-r backup using ea method and press x.
9. Your backup will now load with cheats.


I have seen this posted before so its a good idea to search the forums before you post new messages but i have tried this method and it works every time.

i think this method would only be used for swap magic version below 3.3 i have the swap magic 3.3 not anything below that and a pstwo.

so becasue i have a V12 pstwo and a swap magic 3.3 i will not need a DVD loader or a CD loader to boot the AR max CD.

HUYI-

This hs been posted on this board and proven to
work for ver 1-10
I have used it MYSELF with my swap magic 3.3
And it works every time

That is the easiest way to use swap magic with ar max.
And be assured it works if you dont believe me look around here or try for yourself.

Well i see that with an ar max it works, but i need to buy the swap magic, and all that in my country costs 100$.I know it is worthy, but i have 15 years old and there's no way to convince my dad to buy them.Or there is?

Well, my question is, can i backup a swapmagic cd and do that trick?Sounds impossible to me, but....we never know...

Anyway, i'm gonna buy a AR MAX, and i have a usb pen.
I read about a exploiting file to the memory card, so isn't there a method to load backups with these stuff?

I mean, a way to, with an AR MAX and a USB pen, load backups?


Sorry if i'm bothering you guys, but, i'm a n00b when it comes to this subject.

Thanks guys.
