Ok, well I was just wondering if anyone could please explane to me what they do, but from what I understand they are a file that you burn with the game to make it work with swap magic. If someone could tell me if im right or tell what they do I would greatly appreciate it. I was also wondering were i could get these files, or can someone send them to me please.
You need either cdloader to boot up games that have extra protection (this file is burned to a cd and works for PS2 consoles version 1-8, I believe). If you have a version 9/10 PS2 console then you need dvdloader, which is cdloader only it is on a DVD - this is done because these two specific PS2 versions do not read cdloader correctly. Check out these sites for help:
There are certain games that require you to use an option in cdloader to boot them up correctly. The sequence: swap disc -> swap for cdloader -> press X -> choose option -> press X -> manually EJECT -> place CD swap disc for CD games or DVD swap disc for DVD games -> press X -> it should say: "Swap by EA method" here you swap for your backup -> press X. Game should boot up.
Getting cdloader and knowing what option to use for what game within the program: www.swapmagicfix.com
If your CD swap disc does not work then there is another dvd file also called dvdloader that will help you boot up your CD backups (do a search here): www.ps2ownz.com
i downloaded Cd loader and extracted it. My .BIN file is only 22mb and my .CUE file is only 1 kb when extracted. What's going on. They should be bigger, and which file do I burn to a cd?
do u mean to put the CUE image on a CD which is only 1kb, and the 22mb BIN file will automatically be put on? I don't get how that happens. I use Alcohol 120%. Plz some more help on this issue.
