Both GT4 and GOW can be played in their entire full dvd9 forms with the latest patched HDL.

All you have to do is:

Use DVDDecrypter to make a full dvd9 ISO.

Use Winhiip to put that ISO to your ps2hdd.

Use the latest patched HDL (whether it be via exploit or burnt onto a disc) to play your games.


No flattening needed anymore.

Tyler!

ao3 chill im just playin (but i really didnt know wtf u were saying tho)

tyler---just what i expected...you f'n rock. nice post, bing bang boom..just the answer i was lookin for. thanks. course i dont know if i dare try all this crap on mothers day, maybe monday.
edit: btw whats the patch im looking 4 called, just dvd9 patch id guess?

[barkroc2]

ok the patch i got :hdl dual layer patch r2
has a .ips ext, the ppf o matic i been using is looking for a .ppf. do i need a difft patch prog? if so what 1?..
->next plan, i got the toxic patcher, but that looks like its for patching the game right? so what am i patching, the game or the hdl? if i patch the game do i need to patch the hdl--or-- if i patch the hdl, do i need to patch the games?..lotta ??'s i know.

[TylerDurden]

You dont need to patch anything. Just download the "fully patched HDL" .elf from www.exploitstation.com and boot it however you boot your hdl elfs.






Tyler!

[barkroc2]

got it. thanks. guess ill have to do some searching tho cuz i started to get into the whole elf thing like 6 mos ago, it got a little complicated and i really had no good use for the whole exploit deal at that time anyway, dont really remember much about it-- ill learn, but is there any other way to play gt4 on hdd w/out the exploit? cuz 1) im lazy and a procrastinator, and 2) gt4's the only dvd9 i got now anyhow
