Help - Apple / Magic2 Clone

[GreenX]

Which would you install if you ahve both chips infornt of you,

pros and cons?

Apples mess up teh PS2 logo? Support GS? Any known problems?

[charlie_ps2]

Apple is better than Magic 2 Clone because it handles GS2/AR2 with codes on backups and on v7 t least plays mod protected PS1 games.

Charlie,

By "mod protected PS1 games" I assume you mean out-of-region PS1 games, and not anti-mod games(?). Because I don't believe the Apple will play unpatched anti-mod PS1 games...

Sorry for not making myself clear.

I meant Apple on PAL v7 happily plays anti-mod PS1 games. I am indebted to Meyousikmann for sending me the PS1 game. Backup also works.

On Messiah 2, original works in switchoff mode, but the backup will not work - comes up with the Circle/diagonal symbol.

I tested a backup of an anti-mod PS1 game (Spyro 3: Year of the Dragon) on my NTSC V7 with Apple mod. It did not work (comes up with red circle with diagonal line). The same game patched with the PDX crack works fine. These are the same results I've had with a Messiah modded V4 35001.

I played (and stil have Meyousikmann's original) SPYRO Year of the Dragon. So what's different between the rwo? If I can rent one I will.
