I have read many threads which state this time consuming way to rebuild ps2 games. Well it just doesnt have to be that hard. I will tell you the easy way to copy, rebuild, and burn ps2 games in the easiest way possible. I have had a 100% success rate, and have coppied scores of PS2 games. This will work on every PS2 dvd game you want to back up. (mind you, if its a DVD9 game which is rare, you will have to lower the video/audio quality so it fits on a single layer dvd. This can be done using pssplex)
Step 1.
Decrypt the ps2 game to your hard drive using dvd decryptor.
Step 2.
Open up Isobuster and load in the image file.
Step 3.
Hold shift and highlight all the game files and put them in a folder.
Step 4.
Open up Nero burning rom and create a new UDF/ISO dvd (It's the last one in the list). Drop all the game files into Nero in the same order as it is listed in Isobuster. Just keep Isobuster open as a reference when you do this. Nero will change the order of the files graphically, however they burn in the order that you dropped them in.
Step 5.
Name the image and burn it at 4x.
Step 6.
Presto, you've rebuilt and burned a PS2 game. Play it.
note:
Some games have dummy files in them.(ie. guilty gear, spider-man 2). They are used to beef up the size of the image and to copy-protect the game. Burning games with the dummy files left unchanged will result in a game that does not boot (using swap magic anyway). To remedy this annoyance follow these fun steps.
Step 1.
Use Isobuster to copy the files to a folder.
Step 2.
Create a new text file. Open it and press the space bar, then close it. This creates a byte of data in the text file.
Step 3.
Rename the text file you made to the same name as the dummy file in your folder. You can point out a dummy file if its called DUMMY.DAT, DUMMY.000, DUMMY.001 etc., GARBAGE.DAT. These files will always be in the main folder of the iso.
Step 4.
Overwrite all those dummy files with the blank ones you've created. (games generally only have 1 dummy file, but some have multiple dummy files)
