Well if that is true it would be great, for all future messiah buyers, but no that great for those who all ready have a messiah on their consoles.
Cause againthey will have o buy another chip, and take off the old one, and to get rid of the old one it ain´t easy if you knbow what I mean.

Nah - they can buy a legal copy of DVD Region X or Action Replay 2 and play their region 4 movies that way.

Anyway, things move on as they have to, don't they?

Yeah - I know. But they can't complain if things don't always work the cheap-ass way. I know they will complain, but if the alchemists couldn't turn lead into gold, they're not gonna make Region 4 movies play with cheap-ass tricks like backup copies of DVD Region X.

Or maybe they will if someone sends me something to try and fix!

Messiah team should of know that bye now, long time ago, its obviously they make tests on consoles, is it that hard to get a simpe CD-R back up of dvd region x in Europe, I think it coudl be really cheaper thatn to send it from the other side of the ocean.

if you look at the install diagrams, you still need to solder to the bios chip. the only difference is that the offical points are the points on the underside of the motherboard. other chips can be installed using the alternate points as well...

So can somebody make the diagrams for messiah 2,dms3 and/or magic 3.1 with these alternate points?It would help a lot of people.
