Question for Charlie - about Action Replay.
 

Charlie! If you may please answer my question:
Since I've been using DVD Region X so far, Supposed I want an Action Replay. Can this be downloaded and burned or do I have to buy it?

Thanks.

It can be downloaded and burned in principle. I boot with PAL DVDRX and recently downloaded JAP DVDRX and booted it behind the other one. Also I know that GS/1.9 (download-->backup) can be booted behind GS/1.7. So, Yes. And that solves the odd problem about AR2 versions for particular boot cases.

I kinda lost you on that one.
Can you give me a little more details?
What odd problem is there?
All I know is that I need GS or AR to play DVD-R's.
But my question is weather a disc is all I need? Isn't there a key that I need also?
Can I really boot Game Shark on a PAL PS2?
Where can I download what I need?
What do I need to download in order to have the least problems?

Hope I didn't swirl your brains with all these questions.

Thanks!

Gilad.

Thanks, Charlie!!!
Where do you find these sites? I can search for years and not find these things!
All I want the AR for is for the DVD-R's. All the others I will boot using DVDRX.
Can you tell me how can I find information weather I can boot DVD-R's with AR without a key?

Thanks.

Charlie,

In principle you should be able to do this and the DVD-R should play as per the boot method tabled at PS2OWNZ. So obviously you're gonna be no good to help answer Gunblade's AR2 question for a while! I was going to try it this weekend and I don't have an AR2 key. So we'll find out one way or another, but, of course, I don't use that method to boot DVD-Rs.

We're pulling out the stops to get the answers for you on AR2.

As for the URLs, it comes with the 1,100 posts. There are 24,000 members and a dozen or so show their appreciation by sharing their little gems.

GUNBLADE: I downloaded AR2/1.7, burned it and booted it OK behind DVDR-X; it requires the key. SO that's that one put to bed and a CD-R you owe me because you didn't do that!

DAL: I just re-read your post. You want to use the DVDR-X dongle!!! Wow - great if it works, another first for the top team. Why don't you waste a disk and try it! The AR2 download is at the site I declared a few posts back in this thread.

I tried burnning AR two, but it didn't boot even behind DVDRX.
Which program did you use to burn it?
I used CDRWin 4.0 beta.
By the way, thanks for doing so much to try and help.

CDRWin 3.8F

I can't make 4.0 Beta work so I've binned it and I advise you to do the same! The best version I've found is 3.8D. 3.8F has no copying problems but there appears, with Windows 2000, to be a lurker that disturbs modem connexions after you close it.

Goodnight - it's bedtime and you should be asleep too.

charlie solves mystery again
i guess i have to burn it now
should boot straight with messiah
kids love to cheat
i got no ar
i use fm xtreme
very good for booting(never tried dvdr with it not likely to no) messiah rules
anyone one want it for miminal price
i must bed soon new pc tomorrow
:)

Well, even before I read the respond, I already installed 3.8F, so it works. Thanks!
But... Of course, it doesn't boot without the key, so I guess buying is required... Unless you can think of a solution to that?

Yes - buy, buy, buy and the CD-R you owe me!

In my country, a single CDR costs 2 Sheqels. That means about half a U.S dollar, or about a 1/3 of a Pound. Now how would you like me to deliver a huge amount of money like that all the way to the U.K???

That's your problem! We'll wait until it reaches, say, 3 CDs or better still one or two DVDs and I'll give an address in Tel Aviv who'll bring the stuff (for me to test, of course) to the UK in due course. Say, March!

So keep asking questions.

Gor it all working yet or are you going to charge me for the answer? You should be quite an expert via the hard way by now.
