    I applied the NTSC2PAL patch on Devil May Cry 3. The game itself works just fine, but during movies, the sound is a lot faster than the video. I encountered a similar problem when playing an NTSC-regioned DVD. Fact is, because PAL has more lines, it takes the ps2 a bit longer to build the image, so the video is a bit slower than the sound, which played at normal speed. The only solution I can think of to solve that sound issue is to change the pitch, at least that was what I did on that DVD.

    It probably means the game can't be patched.

    What game is it?


    This is from the faq in my first post:

    5)Can I tell what region the disc is before burning the backup?
    Yes. Put your original into your dvd drive. Locate the elf file. If it is named SLUS or SCUS, it will be the USA release. If it is named SLES or SCES, it will be the PAL release. If you just have the .iso file of the game and you don't have the orignal, you can use IsoBuster to view the files of the game.

    The Colin McRae games can't be patched. I would suggest getting a modchip that will convert the signal for you. Try the dms4 pro or Matrix Infinity.

    Devil May Cry 3 and Tekken 5 have not been released in Europe yet (According to Gamefaqs) and attempts to copy GT4 have been unsuccessful.
