[sugadaddy]

I was just wondering was there a software out there that will allow me to make a backup copy of a dvd swap disc for ps2 with rings on the disc.i have tried the usual nero,dvd dcrypter,is there any others out there that works better for this job

Alcohol 120 is one of the best disc copiers.

Alcohol 120% will work great or blind read/blind write


Also:
If you make a copy of this disk it will not work unless you use a modchip or have some other original disk to use in conjunction with it

There is NO WAY to burn a disc that will boot in a PS2. None. Zero. Zip. Nada. Nil. Zilch. Nein. NYET!

doesn't it boot with the modification or something as mentioned?

I'm sure I read about it somewhere but maybe I'm mistaken

that mentions you can boot a backup with a PS2 and this one looks the business

do you mean that particular disc that sugardaddy mentions Gurm?

"There is NO WAY to burn a disc that will boot in a PS2. None. Zero. Zip. Nada. Nil. Zilch. Nein. NYET!"

...BULLSHIT!!!

Then again... maybe that's too harsh.

You should qualify that statement with "...boot in a PS2 without a modchip."

Several mods for the PS2 allow direct boot of burnt backups.

leave it Gurm, lol

swap disks are pressed. However, it is possible to copy them as I have seen it done. However, again, you CANNOT boot a ps2 with a copy of a swap magic disk.

Whoever said you need a modchip to boot a back up swap magic forgot that if you have a modchip you don't need the swap magic.......

Very true I was just making a point copying them is completely useless
only time where I seen this type of thing as a benefit was when people copied gameshark cds so they could use the gameshark capabilities with their modchips

Ditto, we know what you meant
If we could make a bootable swap magic then we could make games boot the same way

Just as Handyguy said if you have a modchip you dont need a swap magic disk.

*hugs his V7 modded with a DMS3*

I love you, no swapping, ever.

Hey PS2Daddy, what chip do you recommend for a USA V4 PS2? I'm about to put a new 400C laser in here to replace the craptacular 400B (that no longer reads DVD's, even after a voltage adjustment) as it requires no internal modifications to make this work. Its a V4, no-gap BIOS. I was thinking Duo2 or that Duo2SE that just came out. I basically want to go as cheap as possible, and just boot games on DVD-R and imports, most likely Im gunna give this one to my friend once its chipped.

Duochips work great
I like Messiah 2, Duochip, and DMS3 chips
I am going to give a matrix infinity a try in my new PS2 to see how well they work.
