Hi!

Reading this info on this thread, i have got some questions about this method using hdloader with an unmodded ps2.

>Q: First you copy some games to the PS2 HD(let them be BACKUP or ORIGINAL) , and then you use the MC Exploit with a PS1 CD to load the HDloader from a memory card.

>A: Yes that's right, HD can be the Sony HD or Third Party Vendor of HD, like Seagate,Maxtor and so on. And on your MC Exploit HDLoader or HDAdvance.ELF is needed, and again that's correct use PS1 disc to do MC Exploit, tip: use demo it's perfect!


>Q: Now as the HDloader is loaded, does the HDLoader show all the games you have on the HD, or is it a predefined list of the supported games or smthn and when you select a game it checks the hd for it?

>A: Yes after HDLoader loaded there is a "MENU", you can see all your games and how much more GBytes left sort of information and yes when you select a game it will be read from the HD and you can play ur game.


>Q: And when you start the game you want, does it just start loading the game from the HD, or does it ask for the backup DVD or smthn?

>A: NO it does not ask for backup.

>Q: Or if you have a original game copied to the hd, does it ask for the original DVD before it starts.?

>A: NO, from HD all the way.

>Q: Or does the HDloader have to be somehow tweaked to start backups on an unmodded system?

>A: Yes either use the official Disc or MC Exploit.

>Q: Or how can you fool the HDLoader to load the backups with an unmodded system?

>A: HDLoader is your MOD :) Only uses HD (hard drive) installed to your Network Adapter.

Have Fun!

I'm sorry for the one problem you have! If you were my neighboor, consider it done! but again, you need a swap magic disc or someone that you can go to for their console that is modded so you can install the MC Exploit. I heard though that you can boot it with game shark (which available to any game store) but I'm not sure, I didn't dig into it since my consol is modded. and addition to HDLoader, the point of using this is that you can save your laser since it's easy to wear out, and with the HD PS2 running your games is much much faster and more enjoyable to play and for the purpose of storing games so that you don't have to swap disc every time you play your other games. I feel for ya! hope I can help you this part :( mjay23!

>I've taken into consideration to installing a modchip myself. I know there are a lot of modchips around. Could you or someone recommend any modchip, that would be inexpensive, and easy to install?

>> You're Welcome Knarffi

>> You might want to look into "Magic 3.1" or "Magic V" Mod-Chip they have decent pricing. Mine is DMS3-Plus but your choice. I can tell you this, as far as installations. If you have Version 4-10 console it will be a little easier to solder wires on to it because of the design of the motherboard, the chip terminals, some have extenstion for easy access and soldering part. With version 1,2,3 it's very difficult :) you have to solder on chips which is what i have hehehe, anyway look into those two mention above and you can consider others too. your choice. by the way here the link i saw for "MAGIC 3.1" preety cheap: "http://www.easybuy2000.com/store/playstation%20II/index.html" act fast as it's on specila price. good luck!

>A: You're Welcome! and I have the .ELF for HDLoader or HDAdvance if you want. google "swapmagicfix" also for tuturial and they may have the HDLOADER.ELF let me know if you want it. send me a line.

New to this forum...now...Whats this about copying HD Loader / HD Advance? I tried it myself (I have HD-Advance DVD + CD versions.) Those things are damn near impossible to copy...Alcohol takes forever to copy it because of all of the bad sectors. Theres rings all around the data side of both discs. Same thing for Swap Magic 3 (I have that too). Exactly what program and settings do you use to copy each disc? Even then...I still doubt a 1:1 copy is achievable. What about its "signature"? (Valid PS2 disc). I'm just confused a bit over here on how you achieve such a thing. :/
Oh by the way...along with those discs, i got a Flip-top, Network, and 120GB Maxtor HDD. Everything works fine cept for PAL games now. I suppose I would need to mod it to be able to play PAL games correctly now? The game plays, but the signal is a PAL signal (black and white, flickery 50hz, and black bar on top. Other TV's may vertically roll).
Also..this MC Exploit thing is quite new to me...I'll look into it.

>A: You can NOT copy the original CD and DVD versions of HDLoader or HDAdvance. The thread of this forum is "ISO" (image) version of HDLoader or HDAdvance, meaning a file program called .ELF that is HDLoader or HDAdvance. The CD and DVD version of HDLoder and HDAdvance is the same as the .ELF version. They function the same thing. Only the .ELF is triggered/runned thru MC Exploit with PS1 Disc that's what make it possible to copy the program HDLoader or HDAdvance. Google MC Exploit tuturial first step.

>A: No problem you have Flip-top, Network, and 120GB HD and they all works fine perfect, except for PAL. Remember if your PS2 is designed to be as PAL viewing meaning all PAL Disc/Games should be played in that PS2. To your MC Exploit comments yes that's your first steps see above first answer.

I looked into the memory exploit thing...and yeah, i see why people would get this. wouldnt have to pay so and so $$$ for the real disc..but eh, still using a disc. I forgot to mention I use HD Advance (commercial copy), works quite well. i can play/copy backups and everything including PAL games with the aforementioned side-effects. I managed to find a PAL to NTSC converter with Y-Fix, but sadly it wont work with Gran Turismo 4 Prologue :(. I bought a DMS 4 pro modchip earlier though...now i just gotta figure out how to keep a steady hand when soldering it on <.<.
Thanks for the replies :)

Does anyone have a TITLE.DB file that has all the PS1 games already in it? Also how do I change the MC Exploit to boot directly to the the HDLoader.elf file and not the boot.elf file?

This might be a funny question but if the new update for HD Advance allows a 200gb hd the 137gb limit is not a question. So how do we get an even larger HD to work like a 300gb or 1/2 a Terabyte HD. I do not see why 200 will work and 300 wont.
That will be awesome when it works.
