DMS4Pro

[akahomeruk]

The idea behind the DMS4 Pro was the Toxic OS - does the Matrix Infinity have a simalr thing then?

[spedmetal]

Well yes.... but it wasnt developed my the Matrix Team. Its called the patched HDL that you can install to your memory card. Whats nice about this is that you can customize HDL anyway you like, unlike Toxic-OS. The DMS4 is a great chip dont get me wrong, each chip has its pluses and minuses.

dont listen to these ppl. You will ask everyone in this forum and they will say other different chips you will never heard of in this world. They will never admit dms4 pro is the best chip out there. DMS4 Pro does have a customizable menu unlike what the other member said. With Toxic OS you can load disc, hdd games, HDL right off the chip without having to hold any buttons at startup. Toxic OS also supports DVD9 games on hdd and PAL to NTSC fix and alot more. It will soon have a cheat system in the Toxic OS thus replacing gameshark. Matrix infinity is the older chip and DMS4 Pro is the newer chip. Place your bet.

Dont listen to this guy, he cant read for one and two he odviously doesn't know about some of the hardware issues the DMS4 has. Every chip has its plus and minus.

I say he cant read because I said nothing about a customizable menu. What I meant was you can customize your HDL images with custom splash screens and fonts unlike Toxic you have to settle for what they give you..... not a huge deal but it is a limitation. Now that I have said this they will most likely have a skinnable Toxic on the next release LOL.

*sigh* big deal you can do the same thing with the MI. In the config menu of MI you can set the default boot method to dev1 which will boot whatever you have in mc0:BOOT/BOOT.ELF which in this case could be a patched HDL skinned with your favorite image.

*sigh again* Once again more features the the MI and DMS4 both have in common, I really dont get his point at all with this that one. You can load your DVD9 games to your HDD via winhiip and play them with the latest patched HDL.

So what ..... its still keeping pace with DMS4. Dont get me wrong I'm not anti DMS4 at all. Just seems like people feel they have to dog other chip to make them selves feel better. Once again another notch on my wall as to why the PS2 scene can kiss my ass when it comes to drama like this. Give it up Spike7 no one give a crap and save your drama for your mama.

@ Spike - you're a bit of a DMS Fanboy aren't you?

Why should we admit that the DMS is better, when it ain't? I don't know of any other chips which suffer inherant problems such as Ground Bounce - and with the sort of stuff we can produce today, this simply shouldn't be happening. How many other chips suffer Ground Bounce? Exactly...

Now the MI shares all the features the DMS has - and has NO Ground Bounce... Go figure!

[Warlock]

I agree with Sped and Lufcfan.

The chip has really bad ground bounce problems. All you gotta do is go to dms website and look at all the people having problems with getting it to work at all. I have dms3 and I like it but then I didn't install it and have to deal with all the headaches of ground bounce.
