Where did you download it from and is it pre-patched?
I just got the 'Eric Cartman' version but is isn't patched.
Looking for one that is.

arnt u only meant to use swap discs with games that dont normally work? maybe using real pes2 makes it counter it what the swap disc does, if u know what i mean

OK, I'm having a bit of trouble actually copying or writing a CD from an image, and getting it to work with the flip top lid + boot disks method. Now, I have tryed the flip top lid + boot disks method with the ORIGINAL REAL smash court tennis pro tournament, (which is on CD). I then tryed to copy this directly to a CD-RW using CloneCD. CloneCD said that the copy was ok, and it worked etc. Then i tryed this copyed version of smash court using flip top + boot disks method, however it didnt work!!!
So i used CloneCD to write an image of the ORIGINAL REAL smash court tennis pro tournament, then put in a CD-RW and burned a copy from image, using CloneCD. Again when i tryed it on the PS2 with the flip top + boot disks method, it didnt work!!!
Im wondering (hoping!) if im doing something wrong and somebody knows why it isn't working! If this is the case then i would be very grateful if you could just reply to this post and tell me!!!
I thought perhaps you cannot use CD-RW to makes copies of games???
Thanks a lot for reading, hope you can help me!!!

Yeah, i found it no trouble at all. You'll need a pretty damn small screwdriver though! Or you could, like me, struggle with a big one! lol. The screws inside the PS2 are pretty small!
Ok, im actually now having trouble patching the game! I've got WedoIT 1 on it at the moment. Then i take an image of that, and extract the FILEDATA.AFS file an use AFS Explorer to apply the solidus 4.0 patch, then it all goes pear shaped :confused:
Any help please!!!???

26-04-2003, 10:27
whats happening exactly? is the image not loading in afse?
timedwins7
26-04-2003, 10:36
The extracted AFS file loads in afse, then i apply the solidus patch, and it says its completed and it works. Then i go to open the new AFS file, (with solidus on), and it is corrupt??? i continued anyway an put dynamo patch on, then tryed to import the file into my image in CDmage, but its corrupt:confused:

timedwins7
27-04-2003, 21:16
oh, i see. Yeah, i've got a SOLO card :D Just came in the post on my 16th birthday
So how did you go about the whole paypal bullsh*t?? How does it work?
timedwins7
27-04-2003, 21:21
lol. Well i went to www.paypal.co.uk then u gotta register your card (credit or debit). Then to confirm it's your card. PayPal take out to small amounts of money, for example 27p and 78p. You have to wait about 2 days, then go down to a hole in the wall, (cash machine), and get a mini-statement with the card you registered, and the two amounts are on there. Then you can buy stuff and recieve money.
timedwins7
27-04-2003, 21:22
sorry, when you get the mini-statement, you then log back in to your PayPal account an enter the two amounts, then you can buy an recieve money!

i didnt have to do that when i registered with them, although it was about 2 month ago. all i had to do was enter a bank sorting code which went next to the payment that came out of my bank account. and i got online banking so didnt even have to wait 2 days :) it was isnt ! yay
timedwins7
27-04-2003, 22:50
Yeah, they only take out little amounts, if you got a SOLO/SWITCH card registered. You got a flip top yet hitman?
