I just downloaded Tales of Legendia and I was already having problems with it. At first the game wouldn't get by the first loading screen; however, now it is acting very sluggish during game play. Sometimes the music won't load fast enough and voice acting is off. Also takes a long time to load between cutscenes. Is this my PS2 acting up or my game?

I had a similar problem wit dragon quest but I rebuilt it and it worked fine. Some reason Legandia has no dummy files but still slow and choppy.

I got a DMS3 modchip in V9 PS2. I use Ritek Arita DVD-Rs.

Try rebuilding. Rebuilding also can help games run smoother.

10. Q. What does rebuilding an iso mean?
A. It means that some games 4.36-4.38GB's may need rebuilt to work with Swap Magic. This isn't true for ALL games over 4.38GB's and differs on a game to game basis. The main purpose of rebuilding is to shrink the game's Table of Contents (TOC-the size of the game) in order to boot it with Swap Magic. The TOC for the Swap Magic DVD is around 4.37GB's. There is no need to rebuild games if you have a modchip. Another purpose of rebuilding is to make games run smoother. Usually the size of the game after rebuilding is smaller, but not always. Some games have dummy files used to beef up the TOC and help them run more smoothly. A good way to lower the game's TOC is to overwrite a large dummy file. If you are having trouble getting a backup to boot, and you're sure the media isn't the problem, try rebuilding the game.

11. Q. How Do I rebuild games?
A. With Nero and Isobuster (works as long as no single file is over 2 GB's): http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/197949
With CD/DVDGen: http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/210515
