Problems patching 60hz Border Down and Psyvariar 2
Both games runs fine in 50hz mode, but if I patch them with Pal Patcher 1.1, Border Down (no autoboot), booted from Utopia, stops loading at 96%, psyvariar 2 returns to Dc menu after the Dolmexica screen.
They both show me protection 2 and 3. I have tried to patch both protections and then only prot 2. neither work and show the same effects.... ![]() I have a Pal euro DC. Can someone help me? Thanx! |

I've patched it using "PAL Protection 2", and it seems to works fine...

I have patched the cdi file with both border down and Ikaruga.
After the selection screen they both return to the main menu! I have Ikaruga patched succefully in the single disc version.... What I do wrong?? I copy DC games with daemon tools and clonecd 1:1 copy. But I think that's not a problem since they work in 50hz.... Megalexx, can you tell me the hex values for psyvariar 2 and Border down, so that I can patch manually and see if it's right? |

In 1st_read.bin, look for : D2 0B 42 09 00 01 1F 0C 84
Replace 0C 84 by 30 E0 |

I have changed the hex values but psyvariar 2 reboots after the usual screen...
![]() It's really strange. Megalexx, what can be the problem? is it the protection that reboots the DC?? I don't understand why only those games don't work at 60hz on my DC.... If I try to make them no autoboot, do I have more possibilities that they work in 60hz mode? thx. |

If you take the original iso and only change the code I gave you, it should work fine on a PAL DC.
What kind of cable do you use ? What tool do you use for hex-editing ? Maybe the one you use messes up with your iso. I'm afraid un-selfbooting your game won't change anything. Does anyone else here have the same problem ? |

I use the standard rgb cable...
I have many games patched succefully, but the latest releases have problems running 60hz. Ikaruga was fine but Border down, Puyo puyo fever and psyvariar 2 doens't boot anymore once patched. I have used Hex workshop 4.0. I think it's not there the problems because they behave like patching with your program... |

That's weird :
_ I've got a PAL DC with a scart cable, and all these games work fine on my PAL TV _ the code I gave you is exactly the same as Ikaruga, so if Ikaruga works on your DC, the other ones should also work Are you sure you modify only 1st_read.bin ? This code might appear somewhere else in the iso. You might try this : _ look for 02 E0 21 D1 02 21 0F A0 09 00 _ change the first "02" by "00" |

I have searched all the cdi file for the code.....
what is the difference in searching only on 1st_read.bin? but after patching the iso, the game behave like patching only 1st_read.bin with your program. the new code you have given me in what is different? I ask you this because I am running out of cds! thx for your help! |

I have another question:
a friend of mine told me he has a modified Utopia to force games to run 60hz, is it possible? I also have found an utopia 1.3 and 1.5....are they fake? |

At least, you're sure you don't mess with other files. >but after patching the iso, the game behave like patching only 1st_read.bin with your program It still reboots ? Maybe you should try with a scart cable... >the new code you have given me in what is different? It's on some bytes after the ones I gave you before. It should have the same effects, but now I'm sure of which value is used on your DC. >a friend of mine told me he has a modified Utopia to force games to run 60hz, is it possible? I doubt it, since most of the games reinitialize display at boot time. But if your friend can give you some proofs... |
