Hello, I'm trying to create an ISO of a DVD9 game so I can run it with HDLOADER. I'm following exploitstation's DVD9 Flattening Guide to do it. But the problem is whenever I try to read the second layer of the disc to extract the files, I cannot see any files in it. I tried with 2 different computers, one has a dual-layer DVD burner, but still the same problem.

I tried using Apache 2.0, and I thought the program was deffective, so I got Apache 1.0, but still the same results.



I know it's there, and that my computer can read it, because I can see the information with apache, and there are 2 layers, but I don't know how to extract the files from it.

I'm thinking maybe it's a setting within Windows, I don't know.

Oh, I also tried extracting the ISO with DVD Decrypter, and the ISO is 8.5 GB (what it's supposed to be), but when I transfer the game to the ps2 HD, no matter if I use HDLOADER or HDAdvance 3.0, the game starts but crashes when I select New Game.

Is there a Mode I have to activate with HDAdvance to play DVD9s?
I tried several combinations, but nothing worked.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Odd... but just in case go to www.backuptools.co.uk or www.thefileforum.com and download Apache3preview

I couldn't find any apache 3 preview on any those sites.

And I just did a Firmware update, but still no luck :(


OK, I found Apache 3, I'm rebuilding the ISO right now....

ok, I tried Apache 3. Same thing.

I work in a computer repair shop, and I tried building the image with like 8 different computers now (even tried a MAC!!!!)

But it still doesn't work.

Either somebody is not telling the whole story about how they extracted the 2nd layer, or we've been played.

I even tried the Toxic patch that supposedly inverts the data in the second layer, but still the same thing.
