Naplink and Exploit

**ps2swap** · 08-30-2003,04:17 PM

Just a querie if anyone wants to help out. Just wondering why all other apps work with the exploit except for Naplink? I am using the MCBOOT coded by JUM and it is the only app that doesnt want to boot? I am running all this in a V9 Euro machine.

I am booting with my original psx game, it takes me to the menu where i select Naplink.ELF app from the Memory Card, and then no go!!!!! I know JUM's readme said Naplink requires the CD, so I placed the Naplink CD in before executing the ELF file and still no go!

I know my naplink CD works, as I have a modded V7 and it boots fine from that!

Any suggestions would be great

Naplink needs the CD. An unmodded system wont read a burnt CD whether you are using the exploit or not.

If u press eject button and insert a disc, the cd u put in we ll not be usable

So is there anyway to modify naplink tom get it to work without the cd? any ideas on how to get it to work? there must be a way?

I m not an expert but maybe, (I said maybe but I am certainly wrong) it could work if u rar the files.

MerryD explain this a little further, what do you mean rar the files? Never thought that is possible to do it like that?

Hello

The problem is that naplink need 2 files in IRX Format, and these files can't be read by the memory card, it need the cd with IRX files of Naplink. Maybe it'll work one day for non-modded Ps2, be patient...

it just seems strange that once everything is loaded i think JUM mentioned you need the CD, I did as his readme stated. I thought that once the memcard exploit was done it wouldnt need to check for authentic disc or not, but I guess I am wrong. Im not in a hurry, I just thought a small app like this would possibly have a way of being executed from the memcard. The ps2link can be executed from the memcard, and doesnt that rely on other files?

Naplink w/exploit= black screen also with all nedeed files in memcard . The executable will search files on CD ( cdrom0 ).
Need a modified vers. of the exec to run from MC.

yeah its simple just replace the cdrom0:\%filename;1 calls with those appropriate with your BXDATA dir on your memory card.
