Load ESR through Swapmagic?

**Tabizzle** · 04-29-2012,10:25 PM

You may be wondering why I want to use ESR when I already have swapmagic, but the problem is that I have TOC issues with swapmagic.
I tried loading the ESR elf file by renaming it to SMBOOT1, and then launching it through swapmagic. the logo showed up, then there was a black screen. at this point i tried replacing the swapmagic disc with a ESR patched backup, but nothing happened. The backup simply wouldn't spin.
I can't use FMCB because I have an SCPH90001 model.
So, how can I launch ESR through swapmagic correctly?

Easy answer take UlaunchELF change to SMBOOT1 have ESR on same Folder use uLE to launch ESR but you do have to patch ESR games you know

I did what you told me to do, but now the back up sins very slowly. it hangs on a black screen. the backup is also esr patched ...

Try special boot with Swapmagic maybe it will help

Do you think the problem has to do with the type of elf file? there are 3 types of esr elf files:
dvdv direct off
dvd direct
mcard (something like that)

OK why not just use uLE and install FMCB it would be easier and Faster to use ESR

and yes if the game uses to much memory it needs ELF off
and most games need esr to run right
The memory card one is to launch something after game is reconized like cheat lol
