new pdx spyro3 PAL 100% *NOT* 100%

[soul_courageous]

I just burnt Spyro 3 PAL with the newly released patch from Paradox, and, to my surprise (sarcasm), it's still not perfect. When playing the game in English it suddenly switched language to first Italian, then Spanish. IN GAME! Man, the copy protection on this baby is just out of this world! :-p I wonder if we'll see a 110% crack any time soon...? I hope Sony won't get the last laugh.

(this new PDX patch was released just a few days ago, and is available at http://koolkrakkz.tsx.org/)

If you start a new game AFTER you cracked it it will probably work. Why didn't I think of that sooner? Right now I'm cruising the levels of the first world and everything works perfectly. Three cheers for Paradox!

Its far from perfect.....

Patched the image , burnt it no problem and tried it in the machine .
I collected just 6 eggs then went after all the gems in the first world . I went into the room with the balloon in and was greeted by the now infamous fairy telling me i was playing a hacked copy e.t.c .

Also i could not collect all the gems in the first level ( four were missing)

The game was patched correctly , i had the PDX menu screen where i can select Pal/NTSC , infinite lives e.t.c .
I also started with a fresh memory card as well .

make a copy, no patches or modifications.. get the gameshark cd from megagames.com =>psx utilities =>action replay tools => gameshark cd, download it, burn it to a cd. use these codes -

try all 8 first, if that doesnt work, try the first 4, if that doesnt work, try the second 4. one of those combo's should work.

lemmie know if you get it to work.
