I have a swap magic 3.3 cd version which has a 632 meg TOC and a volume lable of Action replay and my brother in law has a Swap Magic 3.3 CD version with a 622 MEG toc and Crazy Taxi as the lable.

1 is this a sign of fake swap magic

and 2 is it a big deal to have a smaller toc on his?

as far as i know they are pressed onto other discs so that the playstation will read them. most likely your brother-in-laws disc was just pressed onto a different disc than yours.

your right lizard. Thats why swap magic can boot, they press it over a ps2 game.

you answered that in your original question. if its pressed over action replay, its 632 and crazy taxi is 622. It depends on the size of the game it is pressed over.

so why are all swap magic dvd version 4.35 toc no lower no higher.

99% of fixes wouldnt be needed if they pressed over 4.37.....

thats what im getting at.

we were talking about the cd, i don't really know about the dvd. Maybe they couldn't get games cheap with a 4.37gig toc to press over.

the free demo cds of DMC 3 were 4.37 gig.

anyway i just found it funny that tocs are not consistant with these 2 copies thats all.

say if i had a 4.37 gig dvd and owned swap magic is there a way i can press swap magic onto it???

like are there such thing as pressing services?
ide pay for that.
