this is for rebuilding games,
DVD Decrypter is for straight 1:1 iso burning

Hursty i tried your method and got as far as dragging files in Nero but it tells me to use UDF Rom file system cause one of the files i need to drag is to big. this was with Ultimate Spiderman the file DUMMY.DAT 2.38gb

wtf...!!!!!
the whole point of rebuilding is to get rid of the dummy.dat file
do not extract it...leave it alone.....but
you must replace it
create a new text doc (right click on mouse),then opn the new text doc and press space bar once(puts in 1 byte of data)
then rename the text doc to DUMMY.DAT
you will get some kind of warning about changing extensions...ignor it
then drag the text doc named DUMMY.DAT into Nero,in place of the original DUMMY.DAT file
this is how you do it

i created text doc named it dummy.dat no warning when i use Nero it comes up dummy.dat.txt and the reason i didn't remove it in first place cause i thought was part of game cause with out it game only 1500mb

somehow when saving it still saved as a text file
what operating system are you using?
if you are using 98 i know you have to click the dropdown menu and select all files when you are saving then for example name it dummy.dat
however what ever the problem there you can fix it
go to control panel then choose folder options
go down to where it says 'hide extensions for known file types' then UN-CHECK that box
this will now display the full name of all files (remember to change this back afterwards)
now find that dummy.dat.txt file and rename it to dummy.dat
it may give you a message saying 'renaming an extension can make the file unstable do you wish to proceed' or something like that
just select ok
it will now be ready for use
hope this helps
REMEMBER TO CHANGE THE 'HIDE EXTENSION FOR KNOW FILE TYPES' BACK TO HOW IT WAS AS AN UNEXPERIENCED USER CAN MESS THINGS UP IF THEY START CHANGING FILE EXTENSIONS!!!!!!!

Hi Hursty,
Just wondering if you can help a n00b out here. I downloaded the Fifa 06 Dagger torrent 100% successfully, but I've now ended up with the first file as an IMG file(not ISO) and the rest are like 55 files that are just sitting in the folder.
My question is, when I try to follow the instructions on how to rebuild fifa eg: Load the IMG file into isobuster..but the thing is, when I load the IMG file to isobuster I am left with Track 01 and nothing else..no other subfolders or anything..nothing.
I can't highlight any files because their is nothing there which leaves me wondering where I am going wrong with this. Can you pls advise asap what/where do you think the problem is?

What are the 55 files names? IS this your first DL game?
If so you have to extract the ISo out of the files most people use WinRAR cause its free and easy to use,
Type ( extract ISO ) into the search button)
If this is not your problem Im sorry, I dont know what your talking about.
Also you probally dont have to rebuild the game Most people just rebuild them cause they say they load faster. but there is a couple games out there you have to rebuild in order for them to work

Hursty, first off, awesome guide, very helpful!
However, I have run into a few problems that I think I may know the answer to, just want to bounce 'em off ya's and see if I'm right...
I had the OEM suite of Nero 6 installed, and could not find the screen you were referring to. When I tried clicking the Nero button on the bottom of that window like a previous user said, it just brings up an advertisement window for Nero's site. I tried going to create a Data DVD and doing the same steps. However, I selected a burn speed of 3x but when it finished burning, it said "Burn process successfully completed at 8x." The DVD will not play in my hard-modded PS2. I am using TDK 8x DVD+R disks. I didn't know until today that there was a difference between the DVD+R and DVD-R's. Is this my problem? Do I need the other disks? Any help is appreciated! Thanks in advance!

dvd-r/dvd+r shouldnt really matter unless your ps2 is a version 3 or below,in which case you need dvd-r
you need to use the burning rom option as stated

As I said though, using the OEM Suite, I was unable to locate it. So then I tried uninstalling it, and installing the update package 1 that lists the burning rom as a feature, but once again, I was unable to locate that option in the program.... any ideas?

HELP PLEASE!!!!
I have been trying to make a PS2 game for a while now.
My PS2 is chipped with AR2 V2 replay chip.
I have downloaded x-men legends 2 (NTSC) iso. Its around 1.3 GB.
I have extracted the files with isobuster into a folder.
The came up with this order.
LICENSE
MODULES
MOVIES
NETWORK
SOUNDS
Z
DATAOLAY.BIN
DNASOLAY.BIN
SLUS_211.38
SYSTEM.CNF
XMENSAVE.ICN
I then opened Nero burner. Used the TAB with DVD (UDF/ISO).
Made a new project. I dragged the above files from the folder in that order (as they appeared on ISOBUSTER). then I burned with x2 speed on a verbatim DVD-R.
THIS DOES NOT WORK.
Is there something i missed out?
Please someone tell me how to do it using Nero please!!!!
Is there something wrong with my PS2? Is it the game??

Hey Hursty look into the Gnie tool he just made bro,it has an option to shrink it down to the ISO section.The tool is called ExPERT and has a couple other plugins for it,for different munge files.The plugin for the Experimental plugin Extractor Rebuilder tool is called Shrinker_ps2_CdDvd5_iso.epi .Just create your ISO with dvddecrypter,open it up with the tool with the plugin I mentioned selected.Then follow these steps:
1.Extract LBA
2.Extract File
3.Rebuild File
It is alot easier and I thought I might want to mention it for rebuilding techniques bro.

For some reason DVD Decrypter won't burn ISO files I create using DVD Decrypter but it will burn other ISO files I download like MC Killer etc, it gives me an error, anyone know why? Also it will, once in a great while burn an ISO that i created with DVD Decrypter but only after I restart my computer 6 or 7 times.

hey Hursty and others.
The reason I rebuild the file was because I tried every other technique to burn this game succesfully and it still doesnt work.
People told me maybe its the media. I used imation once ppl told me it was crap, then i used tdk it didnt work.
I used dvd decrypter ISO write (just burned the iso) and it didnt work.
I also used nero burning image of the xmen2.iso and again it didnt work.
Burned everything on x2.
The game sometimes will load after I put it in the chipped ps2. and the screen will just go black. The ps2 seems not be able to read further on.
Does any1 know y?
Can you point me to the right direction??
P.S I just tried again with another iso of the same game i downloaded and it didnt work.
Thanks

Hi Hursty and others,
I have the same problem as apollon 1 and asrgames when i use DVD Decrypter i sometimes have the error message but when i don't dvddecrypter burns the media on a benq DVD-R 8x and it works but keeps freezing the game images and the audio too, when i try to burn using lower speeds as of 4x my ps2 starts with the modchip screen(Matrix Infinity Ver.1.12) and then it turns black. I already tried the Nero with the same result.
Thanks for any ideas
