Best mod for new V9

ChrisBaller23 · #1 05-11-2003, 17:46

Just wondering what the best chips for the v9 were and where to get them. Thanks.

There is a v9 Magic V and the Messiah 2 1.33, which is in production so it should be here soon. I would wait for the Messiah.

yo bighap, i've been away for a few days, so i'm now wonderin what's happened to M2 v1.32 ? i see we are now waiting for the v1.33 all of a sudden!?

i was thinking that as well. Get a mars 2 does the same as a messiah 2 or wait a week and get a m2

For some reason they skipped 1.32. Not sure why.

ChrisBaller23 · #6 06-11-2003, 22:28

Yeah....i think ill go with the magic. I have a Messiah 2 that i just found out won't work. So basicly got ripped off cause now i have no use for the Messiah chip with my V9. I guess ill take my chances with something else.

its been documented elsewhere on this forum that the M2 (v1.31) didn't work with the new US v9, so don't be surprised....

i'm definately holding out for the new revision of the M2, i've had my v9 for 6 weeks and i've been happy to wait patiently; i'm not about to give up hope on the M2 team any time soon...

Charlie, are you able to shed any light on the jump from v1.32 -> v.1.33 please?

1.33 is available
no 1.32 as it was associated with hdd support,which follows later

1.33 full support all v9,plus dvdr bug has been removed

EVOEvo · #9 08-11-2003, 10:17

whats the price tag on the 1.33 in US dollers ?

dust2dust · #10 08-11-2003, 12:31

$50 including postage all surcharges included (ie paypal)

ic99fly · #11 08-11-2003, 13:38

So what ever happened to the DMS3? I have been away for a while and now I am lost.

What's up Bighap? Long time no see.

EVOEvo · #12 08-11-2003, 16:52

hey all, I'm a newb when it comes to PS2...just picked one up a couple days ago.

when you refer to the "new" v9, does that include ALL models for that series? The retail packaging shows mine as a 50001/N/97016, but the side of the system is labelled as 50010/N. This one is the bundle box with NIC, game etc...

as far as I can tell, modchip.com carries a DMS3 v2 chip that "might" work on this system. if anyone can shed any more light on which chip I should be looking at, where it can be found, and if there is any soldering required.

finally, if someone knows of an installer based in Toronto/Canada region, please share!

thanks for any response posts.
