PS-2 Backup TUTORIAL TROUBLE !*!*!

mescalin · #1 10-10-2001, 13:17

I've just got a v4 ( i think ! it's a UK SCPH 35003 ) and I've never copied a ps2 game before.
I've tried to copy Extreme G Racing, this is how -
Reading options on cdr-win set to : -
Raw/CD-TEXT/MCN - ALL uncheked
Error Recovery - Ignore
Jitter Correction - disable
subcode Analysis - Auto and its a disc/cue image i'm making.
Okay Reading the 'Spoonfed Burning Tutuorial by BJohnson, I convert it from a .bin to a .iso
using all the exact settings 2352 - 2048 etc BUT its when I come to using ISO buster and Addzer0 that I get a little bit lost !
I understand there is the system.cnf in the wrong LBA Address, but what address do i put into the Addzer0 Application to put the .cnf file in the right place ????
With AddZero I know I have the output.iso file to convert but where does the input.iso come from ? Its not the extreme-G.bin is it ?

Help I'm lost ?

Copy it using clonecd.
You will not have to patch it as it makes a 1:1 copy of the game

The rest of Meskalin's post is a mystery to me. CDRWin produces a BIN file which you can patch with PPF-O-MATIC. Then you burn it back to CD-R with CDRWin. There's an EA Patch to apply too. So what's all this ISO to BIN stuff you're into?

Hi,

you downloaded Extreme G3 off the web didnt you??

If you have an original copy of this game then CLONE CD will be fine, i know cos thats what i used in fact i made a backup of it today and it plays fine.

Also i dont know who u word move a ISO file to a BIN file they 2 way different file types.

Cheers

Thanks for the advice Dal. I'm just about to chip up my new UK Version V4 PS2 . Um just wondering what chip to get. I know there are new chips on the market soon NEO V4 And MESSIAH but I dunno if I can be arsed to wait for these. And I'm thinking now that V2.2 NEO is the chip to go for !

Only have GT3 at the minute, And I aint buying Originals at £45 a peice while I wait for a new mod chip.

Copy It up till we have a scene like we had on the A500

Hey Sony can take it more than Commodore could !!! Laughs

Friggin multinational corporations snatching a slice of the console Market

I HOPE MICROSOFTS X-BOX IS THE BIGGEST FLOP SINCE THE JAGUAR ! THEY DONT DESERVE ANY SHARE OF THE CONSOLE MARKET !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!SCUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!SCUM!!!!!!!!!!!!! SCUM!!!!!!!!!SCUM!

Hi,

Pleased you found the info usefull. if your not worried about the NEO4 then get yourself a NEO2.5 chip it only needs 5 wires soldiered and has a few extra features to the NEO2.2 mod.

Dont 4get to pick yourself up a REGION X for your boot cd, is the quickest on the market.

check out www.playstationmods.com and order your chip!!

PS the Amiga days were something special wish i still had mine!!!

goodluck
