Playing PAL PS2 games on an NTSC PS2

Hi

I was wondering if you managed to get your singstar game working. We are having the same problem, the audio/video are out of sync.

My daughter was given this game by my friend in the UK and she's desperate to play it. Any help would be appricated.

Does a DMS4 SE chip sync the audio and video of PAL games on NTSC PlayStation 2s when you decide to force NTSC mode with or without Y-Fix?

 

that's a good question. I'm getting the DMS4 SE soon so I'll test this and report on it.

 

Ok, I just bought a PAL game, and I have a PAL-to-NTSC converter. My NTSC PS2 console keeps saying that the game is not a playstation 2 disc. Can you play PAL version games on an NTSC console without a modchip? Can I burn the game and play it without a modchip? I have a new system but I dont think it has a modchip.

 

Can Someone help me ?, I can't Get PS2 - PAL Ford vs Chevy to work after I Burn it.

 

the file I am trying to patch to NTSC, is a bin and cue file... how do I complete the process using those? Also... I tried using Bin2ISO just to burn it for use on my multisystem tv... but that also didnt work.. when I swap magic'd it came up red, meaning that the file wasnt right. Any Ideas? (plz dont suggest nero, I tried it, and it didnt work.... whenever I tried to burn an image, it just crashed)

Btw, the game is Raiden 3. I tried to get a NTSC copy.. but it had no seeds, so now I have the PAL copy

About pal games on NTSC systems. No, you cannot play any other region PS2 game on your console, unless it is the same region as the console... i.e. your PAL game on your NTSC console. You need either a modchip, or the swap magic discs.. using slide card or fliptop.

 

I tried Patching PAL Ford Vs Chevy But Is Still Don't Work

 

ok can some clear this up for me please....the version i downloaded the other day was 1.03 so if someone has .06 and a link i would appreciate it(ps2 PAL to NTSC y fix)....second of all i am tryin to patch raw vs smackdown 2006 iso file and when i rin it with patcher it comes up just like you said it would in the screen shots on your guide but my question is...is it suppossed to change a file in the iso because when i opened the image with alk 120 it was still the same sles file so before i wasted another disc i wanted to make sure.....thanks for the help...i noticed the path after patched didnt say the same drive as my path to my iso so thats why im askin

 

yes, it should be the same. The point is to patch the PAL file to act like an NTSC, not actually change its coding to the NTSC format.

 

Here you go. I just used it on a PAL NBA Live 07 and it worked fine. It was posted in an old thread here.

I have a problem with NBA Live 07 and Tiger Woods 07, on default POS of 48, the picture doesnt' show on the screen, but if I move it to 40 the bottom of the screen is cutoff. Also without using Y FIX too much of the bottom of the screen is cutoff. Has anyone got an acceptable position with either of these games?

 

I followed the direction on how to convert a pal iso to ntsc. After patching with ps2pal2nysc at y-fix offset 48 i burned the same iso with dvd decrypter and it still comes out black and white with a rolling picture. Can anyone tell me what im doing wrong? thanks

 

i downloaded an .iso and burnt it using dvd decrypter... and loaded it... but the game was black and white... so rebuild the game and installed the pal to NTSC patch but now the playstation2 logo coems up and it freezes on a black screen right after that... can anyone help?

 

This is what happens when I patched a PS2 Linux distrobution (from PAL to NTSC using ps2_pal2ntsc_yfix)

Any help?

 

Swap magic has Loading mode "NTSC", PAL or Normal does this automatically convert the signal or no.

Also when you get the OFFSET higher that will get more of the bottom of the screen, when the Y offset goes down it gets more of the top right?

So wouldn't a value of 56 be more optimal then 48?

 

many games hang up in some point with values greater than 48. Use by your own risk. 48 is the secure value.

 

The Warriors works with PS2 PAL TO NTSC PATCHER WITH Y-FIX V1.06 BETA
at a 48 Y-Fix.

 

Why is is that MOD CHIP or a hardware converter can get the picture perfectly centered.

But the software fix cannot?

 

hi... i have a PAL PS2 machine and i was wondering if any one could help me.... i need to convert it to NTSC so that i can run my NTSC games on it and also get color on it... because right now it runs black and white.

 

i have a question...i had a game that i patched a while ago and i patched it with a selector....wen i tried to load it from hdloader it didnt work.....so my question is do patched games work on hdloader...or is it just that they wont work when they have a selector? ...has anyone played any patched games on hdloader?
