    I'm pretty new to all this ulaunch, fmcb, and esr, but i'm starting to get the hang of it. So far ESR works great but there are 3 games I can't play using it that I know work with swap magic. As with many people, my sm disks is beat to crap and doesn't like to load much anymore so I tried using the .elf for both swap magic 3.6 and 3.8 and I can't seem to get either to work.

    with 3.6 I get the same error I've read that alot of people get, I get the logo for like a second and then it goes to a black screen. Haven't read any solutions for it yet though. with 3.8 seems like it's going to work after I boot up the copy, however it just reboots the system.

    Anyone know what I need to do to fix this?

    Which games are you talking about?

    You don't need those SM-ELFs at all, since you have uLE.
    If you really want to swap, simply use 'unofficial LaunchELF'.

    Oh and btw. There is no Homebrew-App available for the PS2, which is called 'ulaunch'. Please simply refer to it as 'uLE', since it is shorter; the correct abreviation and ronald|dlanor get's the hang of it (not telling he's getting annoyed by it).

    the games i need SM for are All Star Wrestling 3 (esr patcher couldn't patch it), Michigan Report From Hell, and Aqua Teen Hunger Force Zombie Ninja Pro-Am. ESR has a couples issues with them from what I've tried. How do I use uLE to do the swap?

    I do not have these games, but what do you think about posting more info (especially about your issues)?

    To swap with uLE (I'm not sure, since I do not swap):

    -turn 'Disc-Control' on, save settings and restart uLE.
    -Insert an original disc with a high TOC and of the same type (PS1, or PS2 and CD or DVD)
    -Wait for the inserted disc, beeing stopped...
    -Once it stopped, use the swap-trick to exchange your original to a backup
    -Either enter the filebrowser and refresh the content of the disc, or simply start 'PS2Disc'.

    Game should start...
