Has anyone got a copy of this game to work? If so, what was your method?

I have SwapMagic 3.6 with both a DVD and CD loader disc. Since I didn't have any regular CDRs laying around, I used CD/DVD Gen, and created a DVD Project using the image file of the game (which I created using Record Now.)
Loading the game only results in a black screen, both using the normal boot and special boot option.

Thanks for your time,

Gamer2000

http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/176791 Yes it works. Gradius V is a CD-ROM based PS2 game so you burn it the same as a PSX game. Check here for a thorough PSX burning guide: http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/236278

Hey,

I just got it to work, and I see you've already posted some links to help out. Here's what I did.

1. Created image with Record it now.
2. Opened the image in ISOBuster.
3. Extracted all images to my iso_extracted_files folder.
4. I used DVDScan Lite on all of the files, and let it patch the
the appropriate key files so that I could burn the image to DVD.
5. Opened CD/DVD Gen, and added all of the files in the order they
appeared in Isobuster.
6. Used IML2ISO to rebuild the files to the final image.
7. Burned with DVD Decrypter.

Game plays exellent!!
