TUTORIAL: How to play backups w/o mod chip, only Max Drive Pro Memcard

no, I'm just pressing A, and even when I didn't use an import it did the same thing, I put in my NTSC Resident Evil game into my NTSC gamecube, and....nothing.....

 

Well why the hell are you using a boot disk to load something that will load fine if you don't use a boot disk? I've never even tried that and neither has anyone else. I don't think they would waste time putting a feature in that boots already original games...

 

you said it could load imports.....so I was testing it.....since it wouldn't load my import, I thought maybe it would at least load one of my normal games......

I don't see why it would only work with backups and not imports or other games.....

 

I was hoping I could use this instead of my Freeloader disk so I could sell that.

Anyways once my dvd mini's arrive and I test a burned game, if it works then I'll be happy. Sorry, if I did something I wasn't supposed to. >_<

 

anyone tested with normal dvds (GC with replacement top)
does it work ?

 

this is great it is so much cheaper than hard mods

the link for GcoS is dead

 

did you try googling for GCOS, i found it pretty easily, i know i cant link to the site because of forum rules but i'll give you a hint
europe+asia 'dot' 'nu'
what's the combined word for europe+asia? hmm cant seem to remember

 

lol thanks,

There are four copies of it

GCOS v1.5 (teaser)

GCoS v1.5 Final (pack)

GCoS v1.5 T3 (binary)

GCoS v1.5 T4 (binary)

what one should I get

 

the pack, everything else doesnt sound right

 

Ok it keeps saying Media wasn't recognized for me. I'm using some no-name dvd-mini's and my dvd writer is a Pioneer.

 

I got the final pack and there are multiple dol files what one do I load.

GCoS 1.5 (Viper DVD).dol
GCoS 1.5 (Qoob Pro Internal Flash).dol
GCoS 1.5 (PSO).dol

Then there is a .bat file that the ready me says...







This is GCoS 1.5 with the potential to use Action replay codes by means of merging it with
Action replay 108. It has been tested on maxdrive pro, and PSO. (It will not support ViperGC
or Qoob as they already have cheats built in).

What you will need:
d0lz3.0
Action replay 108
Darkakuma/softdev action replay patches
A way to boot homebrew code (1.5mb~ file)

Method:
Patch Action replay 108 with darkakumas patch
D0lz this patched file (with "Drivesave OFF" (-m))
Place this dol (ar108-dLZ.dol) in the directory and run "runme.bat"
"GCoS With AR.dol" will be made.

How to know if it works:
Apart from giving it a go, check that the CRC of the file produced is this: 0876c44b
AR with -m flag offset is 37326528

Thanks to Maximilianop, Sharpener (Fuzziquer_Software), softdev, and Lukeage.





I think I have to use the .BAT file is this correct?

 

you have to use Gcos 1.5(PSO).dol

 

Xerofyre: Where does it say media not recognized? Your gamecube or your PC?

Mr-Cube: I said explicitly on the tutorial that you should use gcos(pso).dol

Xerofyre: Sry then I had heard it would load import games but perhaps I was wrong. I never really tested import myself.

 

on my gamecube

 

GcoS tells you media not recognized?

Are you in the UK just out of curiousity>?

 

and the link for gcos is alive

 

nope, in the U.S.

 

yeah Gcos says Media not recognized

 

it looks like there are two different types of max drive pros.

which is the correct one to use to do this max drive pro softmod?

i've only seen the one with [bold]one disk[/bold] for sale on codejunkies.

is the one that brucedlx used available anymore?

 

2 possibilities:

1. Your Blank DVD's are cheap/incompatible (unlikely)
2. Your laser needs POT re-adjusting (Probably because you bought it more recently)

These are the only 2 sol'ns I can think of.
