do i need to patch the GT4 image, when using hdl 0.6c...

[ahmadka2]

hi guys.....i just wanna know that,...i just got the pal gran turismo 4 release by strike........now, according to toolboy's work, i have to apply patches, etc... to get it to work on the hard drive.........but then, with hdloader 0.6c, do i still have to do this ?? and secondly, what is the reason for patching the files ? is it because hdloader by default cant handle dvd9 games ?

and say, i do patch the files, rebuild the image, and then send the rebuilt image, so that it works with even hdloader (old one), will it still work with hdloader 0.6c ???

I am asking this, cuz right now i do not have an external hard disk box, so i want to tranfer the game only once, and not again and again :lol: ....

another thing.........refering to this post....http://www.ps2-scene.org/forums/showthread.php?t=36991


.....if i send a dual-layered ISO image of GT4, without modifying the image files like toolboy said, then the image that the ps2 recieves is just the first layer, not the second...........is this true ?

[ahmadka2]

secondly, where is the problem ? was it in hdl_dump, that it didnt send both layers ? or was it in hdloader, that it didnt read both the layers ?


please help............
