[H|LLJD00]

Hey,

Has anyone got Starwars Battlefront working on HD Loader?

Thanks.

I don't think it does work - I think I remember a post a while back.

.............................I could be wrong however...

sigh i still see people arnt using the search feature :rolleyes:

Fix found by Cyberskunk at www.ps2-scene.org

Managed to get Star Wars Battlefront PAL (Known for Black Screen of Death) to work. I noticed that the game itself has it's normal SLES,SLUS,SCES file but also has an ELF file SWBFRONT.ELF.. See where im going......

I simply copied the files on the disc to my hard drive, then using notepad edited the top line of the SYSTEM.CNF to read.. YUP you guessed it..

BOOT2 = cdrom0:\SWBFRONT.ELF;1

Then rebuilt the ISO in nero in no particular order and making sure to rename it "1_01" which was the original name for the disc.The ISO is half the size because you have only made an ISO not ISO/UDF (I think) don't panic though.

Dumped it using HDL_DUMP 0.7.3 with the HD attached to PC using SWBFRONT.ELF as the Disc ID (Instead of SLES/SLUS/SCES_XXXXX)

Loaded it with all modes OFF... nothing...

All modes ON... SUCCESS

I hope this can help to figure out the BLACK SCREEN OF DEATH problem. Someone with more experience may be able to work back from this...

Hopefully

I don't think the network capabilities work doing it this way.. but from what i can see i believe this is the first a BLACK SCREEN OF DEATH game has been loaded using HD Loader.

I have a PAL V3 NO MOD PS2 using MC Exploit & Fully patched & skinned HD Loader

GAMES THAT WORK USING THIS METHOD

Star Wars Battlefront NTSC/PAL...............(SWBFRONT.ELF)
Metal Gear Solid 3 OPSM Demo NTSC.........(MGS\MGS3.ELF)
GoldenEye : Rogue Agent.........................(GE2\GE2RDVD.ELF)

if you have time and patience can you explain this step by step. i dont know how to rebuild an iso or dump etc. see where im going i need a tutorial on the basics. dont have time or dont care thats life. we learned from somebody who was willing.
