Questions like these make me smile. П™‚Let’s think about this for a bit. First of all, how swap magic is copyable is beyond me. It has jagged data rings, so it is unlikely for a home user to copy it.Next of all, even if there is a copy of it online (maybe from originator or whatever), how will your PS2 read it?When you buy swap magic, it is silver pressed, similiar to like your audio cds. It is formatted as PS2 disc, and it will work.Now you download it, and how do you burn it?
You burn it on blank DVD media using purple dye layer, right?THIS IS NOT SILVER PRESSED. YOU ARE NOT FOOLING YOUR PS2. IT WILL SAY INVALID PS2 DISC.End of story. Go buy swap magic. Hey I have a big question that I really hope you answer. I have done so much researching on how to play downloaded PS2 ISO games and I’ve pretty much decided to go with Swap Magic BUT, what is the difference between Swap Magic 3.6 and Swap Magic Plus 3.8 VER 2.0 CODER. Does Swap Magic Plus 3.8 play import Pal AND NTSC?
And is Swap Magic Plus 3.8 all you need to play import games or do you have to have the original swap magic 3.6? Please help me out, I have already burnt a game to a DVD-R disc and I want to play it, it’s Rock Band for ps2 and i need to now if I should get Swap Magic 3.8 or the Original Swap magic 3.6. I figured to stop me asking loads of different questions at different times, I’d save us both time by writing a longer post.
I have a grey slim playstation from scotland (PAL). I want this game Sega Ages Volume 32 – Phantasy Star Collection. I would like to get this game imported from Japan, but dont want to spend 30 pounds for the game alone and then all the additional money for flip tops and magic switches and swap magic 3.6. I’ve read through your blogs to try and prevent asking questions you’ve already answered but I’m still all unsure how this swap magic works so I apologise in advance if i’m doing your head in. I just need a list of the needed equipment for my slimline ps2 and guidelines on where to buy them as I’ve searched the net and some websites sell one thing but not the other. So again please, would you give me a list of the exact things needed and some incline on where to buy such hardware/software etc.
Swap Magic 3.6
Thanks again and sorry for being a pain. Much appreciated. I cannot give you any guarantees. The swap magic disc itself can do both NTSC and PAL games, so the swap magic disc is not an issue.However, many of the Japanese games I have seen are NTSC. Being that I have a NTSC PS2, all is right in the world, but I cannot comment if using a PAL PS2 with NTSC game and Swap Magic in PAL mode will make it work.This is a question I will have to pose on the afterdawn.com forums.Have you tried looking at estarland.com?
They sell swap magic, and I believe that they do ship internationally.Since you have a slim PS2, what you need to do is the PS2 slim sensor mod. See the link on my table of contents page (you did know this page existed, right? П˜› )The sensor mod allows you to block 3 sensors, so you can do swap disc easily. I have both the fat and slim ps2, but unfortunately I do not have any slim ps2 videos to show off as that is with my brother and I am stuck with my fat ps2.Once you got the sensor mod working, all that is left is swap magic, DVD burner, and blank DVDs.
