Here's how I burn my games using a "borrowed game" or "rented retail game."
For playing my burned games, I use...
1. Swapmagic 3.6 comes with 2 boot discs. One is a DVD loader and the other is a CDR loader.
You don't always have to burn a game to a Blank dvd if it will fit on a blank CDR.
2. Depending on which CD type your burned the game to, determines which boot loader
disk you insert into the PS2.
3. Once the load states "load program", I simply remove it and insert my burned game.
NOTE: You can simply use DVD Decryptor to create an image of a retail game, then burn the image back to a blank DVD or CDR (depending upon the size of the image). Then you have a playable game.
If your game stutters during playback (sound skips, frequent freezing of images), then you need to use ISObuster on your image. The reason is because the "system file" is too close to the outter edge of the burned game disc.
1. Open ISObuster.
2. Move it to the side, and drag your image file that DVD Decryptor created, to the right box of ISObuster.
3. You now see the file names and folders for the game. Write these down in the order you see them.
4. Now, create a new folder on your desktop called "iso-rebuild-temp".
5. Drag, file by file, each part you see listed in ISObuster to the new folder.
NOTE: This process rids the original iso file from excess, dud space, which will inturn
reduce the image file size dramatically without loss of game play quality.
NOTE: if the drag and drop doesn't work for you, you can right click each part, select "extract"
and click on your new folder.
6. Once you have dragged (extracted) each part over, close ISO buster.
7. Now, you need to open the program cd/dvd-rom generator.
8. When opening it, tell it "new project", then "create dvd."
9. Drag, in order you wrote them down, the files from the extracted folder to the generator.
10. When done, click the Volume button.
10A. For the disc name, put in the numbers shown next to the system file for the game.
10B. For the Producer, put in Playstation.
10C. Click the Record button at the top right.
11. You will get two errors with this program, this is correct.
12. Next, File/Export IML and select a newly created folder (you might name it IML-files).
13. Once this is done, open up GDVD IML2ISO. This program will rebuild your iml files, by you
telling it to open the first IML file that was created.
14. The final result will be a much smaller image file of the game, thus, this will bring the
system file for the game closer to the inner ring of the disc.
15. Use DVD Decryptor or your favorite iso burner software to burn the iso to a blank disk.
16. Enjoy your game.
