I just got this swap magic 3.6 plus disic and i can't boot any backups at all i am using MAXELL DVD-R disic i downloaded the zonelader and burn it as a image to a dvd and tried to load it with swap magic and then swap off that to run my scareface backup but ican't seem to get this to work.. I read may tutorals and guide how to burn ps2 games with DVD Decrypter and i know i am doing this right. But what is up with my swap magic disic??

Maxell discs are crap consider ur self lucky if it read it u would have kept using the discs and it would have killed your laseer buy a pack of Ritek G05 DVD-R and burn it at 4x thats what i did and scarface worked using zoneloader

ok.. Heres things i all tried

I backup my GTA 3 because i own it and burn it with DVD Decrypter and try to swap it and i get Not vaild ps2 disic...

Then i found out you need Zoneloader to boot any swap boot disic that is past version 2.0.. So i went and downloaded Zoneloader and burned it as image with decrypter and i could even get swap maic 3.6 plus to read that .. So would that still be my disics?

Are you using the Flip top method.

Or using the Duct tape method with the Swap Magic?
