I want to run a backup game with cheats. I found this guide, but it doesn't work:
1. Boot AR MAX (use swapmagic first if its a backup too)
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.
When AR asks for the game CD or DVD, if I insert Swap Magic CD, it crashes after I try to load the game backup, and if I insert the Swap Magic DVD, the game loads but without cheats.
I have a backup ARMax, Swap Magic CD 3.0 & DVD 2.0, and a Ver. 7 PS2.
Thanks
Oh, and I usually don't use the SMCDs, I use the memory card exploit, so the SMCD program is already in my memory card. Could ths be the problem?
