 |
|
I just got Taiko no Tatsujin for my PS2. It being a CD-R, I am trying to use the Swap Magic 3.0 disk. I am getting nothing but a red screen when I load "normal mode" and "special load" just goes to a black screen. Am I missing something here?  |

And by "got" you mean "downloaded", right?
A red screen using Swap Magic (any version) means it's a bad burn. You either didn't burn the game correctly, or the CD you used was bad.

Make up your mind.
CD-R means CD-Recordable, NOT legit game CD. If you're trying to say it's a CD, just say it's a CD. If you call it a CD-R, people will assume you either downloaded it or copied it, either way being illegal and frowned upon.
Anyways, about the problem. It may be your PS2 laser, but I doubt it if other games run fine. Try other CD-based games. If the Swap Magic CD disc works, then your laser isn't the problem.

| Yes I purchased it, yes it's a CD. Sorry my mistake. Anyhow, my Swap Magic DVD works (currently playing DDR Extreme), and other people have played "Taiko" on US PS2. So not cool. |

You don't use the Swap Magic DVD for Taiko, or any other CD games. You need to use the Swap Magic CD version (There are two Swap Magic discs: one for DVDs, and one for CDs) in order to get import or backup CD-based games to run.

Never mind. I just found out that Tatsu no Tatsujin 2 Doki!, is an add-on CD to the first version, and will not play on its own.
I am going to take this up with the store I bought it from. It says nothing on their site about "doki!" being an add-on and not an actual stand alone game. |

I dunno about this Doki, but TnT2 IS a stand alone game. Maybe what you bought is just an add-on to TnT1, cause TnT2 is definitely a stand-alone game, as it gets play on my PS2 quite often.

Guess what Andy? The CD version of Swap Magic, won't work for "TnT" on my friends PS2 either.
I am going to kick something now. |

| Well I guess it just TnT2 that doesnt work on my PS2. I just received TnT3 today and it boots up just fine. Total fun, too bad my other version doesnt work. I wonder what the deal is with part 2? |

If he bought it and has the real copy it is not illegal to copy it for YOURSELF |

| It might just be the disc of my original TnT2 that is not booting. I'm going to try and make a backup disc of it and see if the game being on a new CD will help. |

That's erroneous information, son.
The CD version always gets a red screen, whether it's good or bad. The DVD version is the one that uses a red border to siginify a bad burn.
Also, I cannot get it to boot either. I'm using SwapMagic 3.2 on a Slimline PS2.

Hi everyone. I ran across this thread after I just bought TnT2 (Doki). I can't get it to work either. The other versions I have work fine. I'm using a PS2 v4 with fliptop and SwapMagic 3.0.
Has anyone gotten TnT2 to work? If so, what kind of system are you using?
Also, I was thinking about buying versions 4 and 5, but I'm kind of hesitant now. Does anybody know if they will work? Thanks! |

Doki is an addon(append) disc. It cannot be booted directly by swap magic. The only way you'll get it to work is with a JPS2 and the original game it's appended to, or to have a modchip that allows direct boot.

I keep reading conflicting things about this then. Earlier in this thread someone states that it's a standalone disc. I think the only game that came out before Doki was the original TnT. I have that game, but I don't see anywhere in the menus about switching discs. I guess it won't matter since I don't have the right mod, but I would like to get a definitive answer either way.
Do you have this game, and what's your setup if you do? |
