    to uninstall the exploit??? hmmm.... i think the easy way is to just delete the system configuration file from the MC. you can do that from the ps2 browser.


    the reason they prob'ly told you to use the underscore is because that's what usually works. i have that for all 3 of my trigger cd's and they all work. you may want to put more than one trigger cd info into making the titledb file.

    The irx files should be inside the FILES dir. At least thats where I remember them on the cd. I will have to look again.

    And shouldn't the sles code be

    SLES_014.20

    instead of

    SLES-01420

    I would think the . would be more important than the _

    Is there a guide anywhere for the SM3.6 exploit? I have to play with my laser 10-15 times before I can get it to read the SM3.6. I would love anyone that could tell me how to save my SM3.6 to a memory card or HD so I don't have to f with my laser everytime I want to play a game.
    PLEASE
    Thank you

    Just use CogSwap on your MC to load games. I haven't seen a way to get Swap Magic on your MC.

    Is Cog Swap only for CD based games?
    I swear when I bought SM3.6 on the slide case it said "now can be loaded from memory card" or something like that. I also heard HDLoader doesn't work for all games.
    Are there any other loading programs from memory that will load all games(DVD based) as good as SM3.6?

    I'm basically looking for another way to play backup games(either from HD or +-R discs) without forcing my PS2 to read the SM3.6 everytime.(without getting out the soldering gun) My PS2 has a hell of a time reading that SM(DVD)disc.

    Cogswap will load CD and DVD games. There is an extra swap step involved. You need a high TOC orignial pressed PS2 game (I use GTA). When the CD is on the screen, you eject and insert the orignal ps2 dvd game. Then once you see the dvd, hit x and it will say use cogswap.

    My swap discs are giving me issues too. I swear, my PS2 has a mind of it's own (and it does not like me). I have been using CogSwap off the MC and it seems like games load faster than with SM discs (when they actually work). I have a feeling my laser is dying (have already had it replaced by Sony twice) and I really dont want to send it back to them again. If anyone knows of a way to get SM on the MC I would also like to know.

    Will Cogswap work for ALL DVD based backups?

    L-Burna etc., i've installed the MC exploit no problem (using ARMAX with cdloader.elf and swap trick). I used Keyloader as the BOOT.ELF file and when i but in my ps1 game, a black screen appears - no sign of life from keyloader. I have a PAL v.10 ps2 (non-slimline), could this be the problem?,

    What can i do to solve the problem? - thanks for any advice you can throw at me

    Finally got the MC exploit to boot with my ps1 game - excellent!

    I realised that i must have been doing something wrong along the way, so i got this fantastic package to do practically all the work for me:

    http://www.console.iscentral.net/download.php?view.183

    It's the Independence Compiler program (version 4.0)... you can't go wrong with it - it compiles your bin/cue file for you and all you have to do is select which options suit your system (makes the title.db etc.) You can import your elf files to it (downloadable from http://www.console.iscentral.net/download.php?list.12)

    With generated bin/cue files, i just burned with Nero.

    After loading the cd (with cdloader through AR MAX media player), it had a few false starts saying it couldn't install certain files on the disc (think i burnt the disc at too high a speed) - after 3rd try though (with the same disc), all the files were on the memory card... and it loaded when i put in my ps1 game. I used PS2 Menu as the boot elf and everything loads swell!

    I guarantee this easy option is practically error-proof.

    Excellent man, your on the right track. The installer done the same thing for me at first (i burnt it at too high a speed). Dont worry though, just delete the "System Configuration" file on your MC and load your exploit disc again (the same one)... it loaded on 3rd attempt for me!...

    Just keep trying the same disc, it will work if you've got the installer to load.

    for me, i used the codebreaker + usb drive method. that seemed to work a lot quicker. but if you got that far, just keep trying it. it's bound to work. worst case scenario, you would have to burn another cd with all of the other extras included

    i have never used the installer method so i dont know exactly how that works. i am sure there are some details in a tutorial somewhere. my favorite places to go are www.exploitstation.com and www.ps2hd.com. i got mine working from ES first, and found ps2hd later on. they both have info and tutorials. so go read up on some stuff in the forums first because it's guaranteed that most of the basic questions have been answered. that is all i can do to help you.
