This may sound dumb but I dont understand something...

Know, I understand putting certain .elfs on the MC because it allows you to
ftp to your ps2 and such.

Can someone please explain to me, why putting the HDL/HDA elf file on the mc(So that you can run HD loader from the MC) is even worth it?

You stil have to insert a cd correct? You have to insert the PS1 game, you got the SLUS from.

Its not like you turn on your PS2 without a cd, and hdloader runs from your mc does it?

I dont know, the other exploits I understand, but dont know why we would run a program from the mc, that requires you to put in a cd anywayz, just put it the hdloader cd.

Dont bash me, Im seriously asking. :crazy:

one for ppl that dont have the real thin, for ps2 with bad lasers... for ppl that want to make thier laser last longer...I leave my spyro the dragon my ps2 all day so when i tuyrn it on it goes to kl... then i can go to hdl or what ever i want ....save time

Sorry, but how does it save your laser?

because his ps1 game launches his memory card exploit, which is probably set up to make the disc quit spinning, and from there any series of programs can be launched from mc, hdd, usb mass storage, ect so the laser isn't used after that (ie HDL as he mentioned)

plus MC is the only way to get patched versions of hdloader. something on a disc cant be patched now can it?

actually you can make a bootable cd with a patched HDL elf by making a system file that calls to the elf, don't know if thats what you were referring to not being able to do or not though

for people without a modchip. This way, we dont ever have to swap discs.
