Hi, I'm new to this whole exploit thing so I'm not really sure as to what I'm doing wrong. I have read guides on how to do it over and over again but for some odd reason it just wont work for me. I have a fat PS2, Gameshark (not sure about the version but it has a 5.1 on the righthand side of the CD), PS1 disc (I only have Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 and NFL Gameday 99), and the USB that has the exploit.
I can transfer the file to the MC fine, the problem starts after I swap the disc and insert the PS1 disc aka the trigger disc. Instead of booting the launch elf it just boots the PS1 game. I have been looking for answers on this for the past few days but so far I haven't seen anyone with this problem. I would really appreciate it if anyone could help me on this. >_<
Oh cool thanks I'll try it. I found that guide before but I thought it wouldnt work since it was for codebreakers. Well since it workerd for you... maybe it'll work on mine too... hope so... *crosses fingers*
Well.. it didn't work. *sob* How did you make yours work? Did you change the file name so it would work as a gameshark game save? After I copied the ulaunch file and plug the usb once more with the pelican file it didn't boot to the SMS thing. Am I supposed to do something else? Once again I'm lost. *despair*
Oh btw, I found someone with the same problem I had with the PS1 disc just booting the game instead of the exploit. Unfortunately, I didn't get to save the link and I have no idea as to what I search beforehand that lead me to it (deleted browsing history already). Anyway, they solved the problem by configuring it to autostart the exploit or something like that. Any idea as to how to do that?
I was thinking that you could use the burn cd method at the bottom of the list if you could swap it in with your gameshark. I wasn't sure if it would work though. If you have a gamestop in your area you might want to see if they have a codebreaker in stock. I got mine for 10 bucks from there.
I tried to do the cd one but er... I'm not sure as to when I'm supposed to switch the cd since the gameshark disc doesn't seem to stop, and if I use that Start without cheats options, wherein it opens the tray so you could put in the game, it doesn't load the disc. *swt* Gah ebil Gameshark!!! Oh well at least i tried right? Should've gotten codebreaker in the first place! Lol
Well I guess I'm going to buy one. Mc_boot with the esr thingie sounds pretty good so I'll try that one after I get codebreaker!
Thanks for all the help! ^-^
Er wait... one last question... It said codebreaker 8.1 or newer right... sooo it doesn't matter if it's the newest version or something like that as long as it's not lower than 8.1 or is there a requirement too? I dont' want to have troubles with the version again like gameshark. @_@
I tried the GameShark a long time ago. Never worked. All my stuff came together when i got Action Replay Max, and I used the media player to run an exploit install disc I had burned. From there, i finally learned about FMCB, and never looked back. Your halfway there, bud!
