L-Burna, where would I be able to find a tutorial for getting anaconda to the memory card and using AR to boot to it? URL?

Yeah true Indienemo hahahaha lol I agree with you some what,but you have to remember it is just decrypted Cobra bios files.We should actually be thanking the Cobra and Viper team for making the bios files and the chip to see how the cube operates,but I understand where your coming from.It makes it seem like PSO is pretty much useless now since all the good stuff is coming out quick as hell all the sudden.DonGio to be honest the Memorex discs I got really was not by choice,my brother picked them up for me from WalMart.The information I get from them though when I plug them in DvdDecrypter are:
Memorex 8X 4.7Gig
Current Profile: DVD+R
Disc Information:
Status: Empty
Erasable: No
Free Sectors: 2,295,104
Free Space: 4,700,372,992 bytes
Free Time: 510:03:29 (MM:SS:FF)
Physical Format Information (ADIP):
Disc ID: PRODISC-R03-03
Book Type: DVD+R
Part Version: 1
Disc Size: 120mm
Maximum Read Rate: Not Specified
Number of Layers: 1
Track Path: Parallel Track Path (PTP)
Linear Density: 0.267 um/bit
Track Density: 0.74 um/track
Nothing really special to be honest man,but I would definately suggest picking up some Ritek discs if you can get your hands on them.Maybe from http://www.meritline.com or http://www.newegg.com either one of those sites are pretty good at supplying name brand discs very cheap.They have the 8cm discs and the full size discs also if you are looking to get either one.If you get the full size discs go with Ritek G04 discs they work like a charm.Hey coldasice all you need to do right is get sdloaderv1.1 and then place the anaconda04.Dol on the sdcard.Then just pop in Action Replay and you should be able to boot the file.I don't have the sdcard and Action Replay,but if I did I would make a tutorial.I remember seeing someone say exactly what to do as for replacing the exact file where and what,but I forgot where I saw it though coldasice sorry man.I am sure you can find it off maxconsole.com.I think that is the place I saw it originally.Another place to check out is gcdev.com they have most of the files you need,and dextrose.com has a convertor so you can convert files.I hope this helps you out I can't really help you out on the sdcard method.I would if I could,but I don't have it man sorry.

well, yes we stuck for almost two or three years and now there come all these cool ideas and stuff. i wonder! but i think there is a very easy conclusion: nintendo helped! those fuckers didnt know how much they harmed themselves with their fucking copyprotection!!!! no one buys GC, almost every game developer wont port games to nintendos gc and nintendo itselve is almost broke. so? hellooooo? this is what happened.
Ok, well it is a unwritten secret that sony made the ps2 games easy to copy. the software industry was not very amused. but this helped sony to become the top of the pops on the console market. so, and what is nintendo, the stupid fuckheads always overleep everything. dumpasses.
well, sorry for my bad english but i hope you all understood me. ;-)
greetinx to all from me

@L-Burna: thanks a lot! but i red almost every sentence of this thread and still have some questions:
1. what do i have to do with the anaconda04.bin file? in the tutorial they only use snace04.dol file? with psul.exe (i've got the newes version of psul already)
2. do i always have to boot pso first? is this the main reason using the viper chip (i mean dont i have to boot pso with the viper)?
3. do i still need to hook up my gc on a pc? ok, i know for backing up the games i need a crossover cable and stuff, but after i burned a game onto a mini dvd does it work without a pc (i guess not because of the psul thingy, right)?
thanks in advance

Getting it to work using the PSO method and BBA you will want to use Phoenix.Open up Phoenix and select the Load a DOL or BIN File option.If you have Psul v1.1 saved on memory card you won't have a problem.If not go back and delete the PSO save that contains PSOL.Then just select the option in Phoenix and put the marker on PSUL and then save your settings.A prompt screen will come up,start up your cube,build a character if it gets deleted,make sure your internet settings are right.Then just save PSUL to your memory card.If you are using Anaconda04 or GCoSv1.1 you will need to tape the lid sensor switches back or find another solution for them.If you are using GCoSv1.2 or GCoSv1.3 make sure not to do the lid sensor switch technique.If you have the lid switches taped down on these versions it will not work,since it has to detect the lid opening and closing.If the lid switches are held down it will constantly read and never give you the option to swap discs.So far these are my results on all the versions,and I finally ended up getting everyone of them to work.I hope this helps you out Laxington and some peeps that are reading this.
Peace L-Burna

Geforce go with the Ritek G04 what you where planning on getting first if it is 8cm size.The memorex small dvd discs I am not sure about from Memorex.I was using memorex dvd-r full size discs.The dvd-r discs from Memorex where 4.7gig in size.I tried out Maxell not that long ago and they seem to work also,this is the full size dvd-r discs though.I have a Sony 8cm mini dvd-r that I plan on trying real soon.I hope that works,mainly it is just testing and error Geforce.Sorry if those discs didn't work for you Geforce,but sometimes it really isn't the actual discs.It actually has something to deal with the system and the version of it.I think some systems are really picky about certain media,and then some of them can handle alot of brands.I am not really positive that I have a really strong gamecube at the moment yet.When I start working on the 8cm mini dvd-r media I will know what works the best and doesn't,this is just for the cube I have though.Actually if you plan on getting 8cm mini dvd discs I would say Ritek G04 discs or their is another brand called Traxdata which is suppose to be the same thing as Ritek G04,but alot cheaper.I think either one of these brands will work.I already heard from alot of peeps that these 8cm mini dvd two brands seem to be flawless.I hope this helps you out,and if you get the 8cm mini dvd go with Ritek or either close to that.They are very good and can work with picky systems.Quezacotl this is from actually testing the versions out myself man.I noticed that on GCoSv1.2 and GCoSv1.3 it has to be able to pick up the function of the buttons(when you click on the boot menu,the method there told me).At first I was like you Quezacotl it wouldn't work for me with the lid switch taped down.I then went back took the lid switch tape off,and it worked like a success.They just forgot to input that information,but I swear it works on my system without the lid switch taped down both versions GCoSv1.2 and GCoSv1.3.Yeah there is a couple methods I have heard rc119,but I am not really clear myself on using the memory card trick as for now.I don't have the sdcard or know the memory card trick though.It is possible and yeah I have it works with all the methods,some methods I have no clue what they did just from having no personal experience with the equipment they have.I am just lacking that to be honest,if I did though I would help you out.

This doesn?t really belong exactly with the Anaconda/GCOS topic but a lot of people have been talking about media.
The other thing about media is that it?s not always made by the same manufacturer.
Just because it a lot of companies have their discs manufactured by another company who then just put a stamp on it.
This is why you have Traxdata and Ritek/Ridata being the same, because they are the same product with a different label.
However often times companies get their discs manufactured by more than one company. Some of those manufactures may be very good others not so good. Hence why sometime you get very good Memorex discs and sometime utter crap.
Another example: Optodiscs, generally great media (if you get ones actually produced by optodisc). I bought a spindle of 50 one time, which I think were optodisc 'imitations or something' the were TERRIBLE. I checked the manufacture id and sure enough it wasn?t optodisc :P Some manufacturer I had never heard of.
This is why knowing the Manufacture ID is very important (more important than whatever is stamped on the disc)
If your buying from your local best buy or Future shop you kind of just have to go by the label, But if your buying online best to check out the manufacturers id and see if its a good one.
There are different site online that rate media, and list what Brand Labels are using what manufacturers lately, so best check those out.
Also for future posts, you?re posting on this site, what media works/didn?t for you post the manufacture id with it.

GCoS rocks even harder!
It even plays Prince of Persia; Sands of Time (NTSC) on a PAL Cube!
I would like to give huge hats off to team utopia and all the other dudes that made this possible.
And thanx L-Burna for sharing this news.

Yeah true I did DonGio,but they where not the 8cm mini dvd-r's which could have been made somewhere else.The discs I was using where full size dvd-r discs 4.7gig,which are different.They have been manufactured longer than the mini 8cm discs,so your chances on the Dvd-R 4.7gig discs will give you better chances than the 8cm discs small size discs.It really depends like I mentioned on the media.The Traxdata and Ritek issue I have no clue about,so I recommended Ritek G04 since I use them frequently not just for GameCube,but for all my systems.

I tested GCoS without lid trick, and i got same results as with lid trick, so it's same either what to use.
It still did'nt worked for me, but it's because i have TDK media. but will Ritek G05 work good too?

Well, ive probably got trouble because i justed ordered a 10-pack of ritek 8cm disks from meritline or something, but didnt check the shipping costs until after i placed the order. Then i got an email saying the shipping an tax and everything was almost 65 dollars!! I chose Wire transfer for payment method, but im probably not able to pay because i dont have enough info on their bank. By the way, im not going to pay 65 dollars shipping for a 10 dollar spindle..!!

Hey wats up Quezacotl you are probably right,media is a issue no doubt with certain GameCube systems.The best is Ritek G04 at the moment.I am not sure if Ritek G05 will work,since I never used Ritek G05 discs.If you do get them I can't really say they would work or not.Indienemo hey man try burning alot slower like at 2X,if it doesn't pick up the discs it might be your Ohm settings.I didn't do the pot tweak method so I can't really help you out with tweaking your laser,but speedi could help you out.The lasers are alot different,so you will want to find your laser's Ohm setting before attempting anything else.The Ohm settings are different I think for every GameCube.In fact I have heard of alot of people that have their GameCube set between 165-170 Ohm and this is the manufactory setting with no laser tweak.You might have to lower your Ohm even lower indienemo,but to be honest I have no clue what would be a good setting for you man(what was your Ohm setting before adjusting).If you talk to speedi,you will definately get more help on this issue.Geforce I really don't know what to say,you could always cancel your order though.Apologies on my part if any of this information is not helpfull.
Peace L-Burna

Apparantly it matters which boot disc you use to to....is this true? Im using a PAL version of the game 'Gladius'.... my friend says the original you use to boot up has to be 'a larger game' to boot up the copy. True?

I dont think so. It just needs the booting code from any disc. I'm not 100% sure though.
