Slow openings and loading time?

Well.. I tried using cracked version of usbadvance with swapmagic 3.3

and tried on maxtor easytouch 150gb and vantec+seagate 250gb case

on a PSTwo.

They all works fine except the problem being DVD games's

openings and loadings times are significantly slow.

(CD versions are ok.) hdadvance.com advertises as "the game

loading speed is as same as the original PS2 game disc."

Is it the problem with the cracked version? that the offical version

will offer fine openings and loading time?

I tried granturismo4, grow lanser3, nba street3, spectral force 1 and 2.

The game play is fine with normal speed, it's just the openings.

I read the forum and this might be related to the so called "fmv being slow"

and I guess it stands for "full motion video" perhaps.

Any comment will be helpful.

Consider the source...
Their statement is simply false, that's all.

No, I don't think so. Various testers report similar results for USBextreme and USBadvance. This is to be expected, as USBadvance is a crack of the first release of USBextreme, and there hasn't been any new release as far as I know, so they are probably still identical. (Apart from the encryption and packaging.)

Not while running the game. There is no way of replacing the drivers used by the game for this, without interfering with the compatibility. The only way to do it would demand developing an entirely new version of USBextreme, and most likely that would get limitations similar to what the current version has (because some of those are inherent to the design concept).

Hopefully someone else can help you find one, as I don't use any. But be aware that this won't work for all games, as some of them 'hide' their files so that normal access methods won't find them (eg: most 'Square' games).
