if all your other copies work then i would say that you know what your doing. Even if others worked on those disc this game may not due to it being so big and graphically intense.

But you may want to search for another guide or even a patch
nevermind i found some for you.

register there and they may still have the GT4 rip kit

I have the same problem as well after rebuilding my GT4 (PAL version), what I do is I press X when its about to come up (it'll display a white screen, then soon after the polyphony digital screen follows - or you can just repeatedly press the X button until the game goes into the main menu) to skip it. In the game you can set it to skip that screen (in GT mode: go to Home, then Settings, and have a look around, there's something in there, I can't remember exactly what its called though)

What version is your GT4, and how much did you reduce the videos when you rebuilt it?

Yeah that's exactly what I did. I'm guessing by the fact that this is the first thread I've seen on this topic, its probably a problem with the PAL version when its rebuilt (I got the original too), otherwise people with the NTSC version would be posting all over the place about this if there was a problem with rebuilding :p

I guess you just have to skip the intro part, if you want to see that you can always use the original disc anyway.

I know its a bit late but I had the same problem and the answer is here. http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/325496

It aint worth burning another disc but it may help if you get same problem in the future. Ignore last posts from thread hijacker.

I guess these are the important files (i.e. don't downsample these). Might give it a try when I feel like burning another DVD :p

That depends on what modchip you have, you'll need one that can boot dual layer discs in order to boot copied dual layer games

Does Swap Magic 3.6 boot dual layer DVD's ? I tried the "Winhex" method, and it didn't work. The first screen booted up, but that's all that happened.

I am going to make a new way tomorrow. If it works, I'll let you know.

Pretty sure swap magic 3.6 doesn't boot dual layers

I have a Matrix Infinity which also boots DL back ups. I did a 1:1 back up just using DVD Decrypter. I had the same problem with the MDS file but I manually chose the ISO file and made a back up from there.

With DVD Decrypter you use the MDS file
with any other program you select the ISO file.
The TOxicOS has the dual layer support built in so you never have to use the Toxic DL Patcher. That is for people with outher chips.
If all else fails just download the copy that is already fixed to work with DVD5, or the DVD9 copy.
