I just recently purchased HD Advance 3.0 and tried to backup Star Wars Battle Front 1 and it doesn't work. It completes the entire backup but when I go to run the game it doesn't work. It just stays on a black screen. Ive tested the other games that I backup and they work fine. What is wrong?

some games just dont work on the HD Advance. plus you cant play online with the games on the hard drive :( . if i were u i would go with swap magic 3.6
For compatibility with most ps2 games for the HD Advance
http://forum.hdadvance.com/hd_advance_compatibility.asp
i looked and didnt see SWBF1 on it but this will probable answer some questions. search around for an updated list on compatibility games to the HD on the forums on the site. hope this helps.

you will hate me for this, but it will work. i just dont remember exactly what to do cuz i have been away from this for awhile.

go to the rebuild forums to figure out how to use isobuster (if you dont know). you have to rebuild the game, while doing it, there is a file to edit before you burn it. the startup file tells SWBF to look for the disc. you need to change it to look for the start up file name.

i actually came here looking for the info, cuz i lost it and wanted to try it on the new one.

sorry to be vague, but at least you know there is a way.

look for a SWBF rebuild post. it is in there. if i can find it i'll repost. i know it was here, just not sure how far back the archives go.

?Thanks andrew and dan1929 It worked like a charm.I also was able to load it to my hdd by making a few simple changes.I first followed Dan1929's instructions a few posts back then after step 2 I opened notepad>file>open> directed it to where I had saved the Isobuster made files>changed the dropdown menu that says "text files" to "all files">clicked on the system icon within my saved folder>click open.You should at this point see something like this opened in notepad:

BOOT2 = cdrom0:\Slus_xxxx;1
VER = 1.02
VMODE = NTSC

Change it to read

BOOT2 = cdrom0:\SWBFRONT.ELF;1
VER = 1.02
VMODE = NTSC

Click the save icon in the toolbar for notepad>close everything and proceed with step 3 and the rest of Dan1929's instructions.Once you have burned your backup use hdadvance in your ps2 choose convert and load your backup to your hdd.once finished on your hdd you will need to press select on your controller before you hit "run" and enable modes 1,2 and 3
I tried out every level and all the sounds,options,graphics work great.Tried single player and splitscreen and no problems.Hope this helps someone as much as andrew and Dan1929 have helped me....see ya,nemesiskm?
