  1. #1 Where to get HDloader? 
    Blooddrive Guest
    Ok so ive been busy looking at everything I need to do to get games playing off an internal HDD and for the most part it looks like I need a copy of HDloader.

    So the question is, where did you get your copy from? If i'm going to buy it I need a recommended site (or someone to say its in a gamestop in utah). Its that or breakdown and get a modchip apparently.

    Also are there any acceptable alternative programs that will load games straight from the hdd?

    hdloader was shut down a long time ago

    hdadvance is still in production and is a copy of the original HDLoader

    any site offering pressed HDLoader discs will suit your needs .... whichevers cheapest

    you could also go for a gameshark, swap magic or just about anything that will result in you being able to install the exploit, as there are a few games the patched HDLoader will play that the original will not, as well as the large HDD support, and you can only run the patched HDLoader from the exploit...

    if you really dont want to get into the exploit, i'm afraid i'd have to reccommend HDAdvance... the only reason people reccommend HDLoader over HDAdvance is the principal of the thing... HDAdvance is a patched ripoff of HDLoader, but if you want the absolutely easiest solution, then that's the best option.

    I recommend a cheat device that has flash drive capability. (such as codebreaker v9 or AR EVO) With them you can set up the exploit AND use a cheat device.
