    Yo thanx so much man, but i've got ONE last problem, i burned the game and the screen stood black after i loaded the game with my MAGICSWAP 3.6. So i realized that my DUMMY files had to be remade to 1 byte files but the CD/DVD GENERATOR says: TOO SHORT LOCATION LENGTH
    WTF!?? I wanna cry so bad this is officially the worst game to EVER RIP!!! Help

    I have a huge problem trying to rip MGS2:Substance PS2 and use it with SWAP MAGIC 3.6. I've followed the old guide step by step and the hexing guide u provided. Many thanks to that, But when i use CD/DVD GENERATOR to make the .IMS file it says "TOO SHORT LOCATION LENGTH" So then i replaced the three 1byte dummy files i recreated to the original DEMO2, STAGE2, & VOX2.DAT files, created the .IML file, used .IML2ISO then burned it with DVD Decrypter and it was no good. the game stood on the black screen after LOAD PROGRAM. PLZ HHHHEEEEEEELLLLLLPPP!
    much appreciated.

    What's Up, 2Pac!? Thanks for taking notice. It's actually single-layer which is good. The only issue I got is loading it up on my PS2 Version 4/5 using SwapMagic DVD Version 2. I've gotten it to work only once and haven't even got it to show anything since then. I even rebuilt the .iso file and it hardly shrank for some odd reason. Can this be explained? Those picture screens on top of pg. 26 of this forum are mine. Anything look fishy? I patched the .iso file with DNAS and all that stuff as well. Ever heard of ZoneLoader DVD? Could it be usefully to try? I'm burning on using DVD Decrypter with Maxell DVD+R at 2.4x (max on my HP Burner). It's worked everytime, including with NBA 2K6 which is made by the same producer. I've been looking around everywhere and need someone who can help or has done it themselves. What advice do you got for me? Thanks!

    No I never heard of the Zoneloader thing or whatever so can't really help you there bro. But I would you suggest you use Nero 7 so any version of Nero and burn the ISO file with the DNAS Code patched at a 4x speed. I use WinDip to patch the DNAS Code. For more info you can use my links at the bottom of my signature alright partner good luck and I hope you get it working right. I really can't see why it shouldn't. Strange.

    i have a question. . . with "Gnie's ExPERT v1.03 Rebuilding Tool" can i use that for any ps2 game?. . . as in lets say for example say i want to use Gnie's ExPERT v1.03 Rebuilding Tool to rebuild a game thats like only 2 GB. . . will it still rebuild? or does it only work if the ps2 game is bigger than 4.50 GB?. . . or basically this tool is to make an ISO smaller to fit on a DVD right? .. .. or what information do i not know, or i should know, or im saying wrong?

    Hi all

    I've tried the GT4 re-buld method and got as far as the Pss sofware stage.

    Unfortunately this re-build method is neither easy of quick and teh biggest problem appears to be the software needed for the job

    Again thank you all for youradvice and help but i think that we need a truly stable (Gnie Experimental type" kit to deal with GT4

    if God of War can be back up via such a method then i think GT4 shouldn't be that difficult butuntil then, i think these guides are more of a headache then a real help.

    Gnie experimental is you read this, please deliver us newbies out of this long winded process and develop something sweet for GT4

    used Gnie to sort out Gebji, 50 cent and all work like a charm
    thank

    Man I'm going to eventually try a doubled layer game. Still haven't done one yet.

    swap magic doesn't support dual layer games.
