Firmware V1.3 Released, Factory Expansion completed, more News.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We released today V1.3 Firmware for the Infinity Modchip.
you can Download it from HERE. http://www.infinitymod.com/matrix/fi...finityFW13.zip

New Features and additions:

- ATAD auto patch.
- HDD browser support.
- PS2 color/videomode fix.
- GameAccellerator function for PAL machines (beta).
- Selectable default boot mode.
- Default language selection for FastBoot/MC applications.
- Selectable pad detect time.
- DEV1 compatible mode for MC applications.
- Infinity options configuration screen.

Notes :
-------

- ATAD auto patch will let you use your non-Sony hard disk like an
original one
(install HDD enabled games and updated browser software).

- The new HDD browser is now supported by the Infinity (no more need to
fastboot
games with the official or non-official HDD).
Owners of USA PS2 will be able to install and use the new official HDD
Browser
coming with the HDDTools disk.
All discs will be recognized and autoboot.

- GameAccellerator (PAL60) experimental support. This forces all games to run
on NTSC with color correction applied. Games will run faster (60Hz) but
screen
could be not centered (some games support adjusting of screen position if
needed).

- You can now select a default boot mode. If no button is pressed on the
pad this
boot mode will be used.

- You can now press R1 during boot to start DEV1 mode. This will launch
applications on your memory card using the standard mc0:/BOOT/BOOT.ELF
instead of the Infinity Manager.

- A default language to use for games using FastBoot or memory card
applications
can now be selected. Previously all games default to Japanese.

- On some PS2 versions if a pad was not connected on port1 the screen
would stay
black waiting for a pad for several seconds. This waiting time can now be
configured (only useful if you usually boot your PS2 without any pad
connected).

See "V13README.TXT" file inside the V.13 zip folder for detailed
specifications.

mindjoker · #8 10-08-2004, 12:45 AM

Well i assumed it would be the D-Pad as it is the only thing that's worth to be called pad, after that we have buttons and sticks, but press pad gets me confused i tried D-Pad Up + Circle and all other combinations D-Pad Down,Left,Right,Diagonals, and even down but with no result

Don't came here calling the ppl stupid before you know the fact's allright, for your information the Matrix Team just fucked up, in the TXT you downloaded it's written:

Press TRIANGLE + CIRCLE to enter the configuration menu.............

But in the file that i and other's have downloaded at 21:41 hours and earlier you can read the following:

It seems they have seen their mistake and have corrected the file, but next time don't be so hasty judging people because it can be you the one to make a stupid figure of yourself.

Well if you say this to me:
Why ppl cannot even read a simple TXT file ?

it's like calling me stupid, also you commentary cleary denotes that you have not read the previous post carefully because i wasn't the only one refering the PAD + CIRCLE problem so if you have indeed read the other replies you should reached the obvious conclusion that it wans't neither a mass delusion problem nor a reading problem unless i and the other's were perhaps drunk or on drugs and even in that case it would be a hell of a coincidence we both read the exact same thing, anyway thanks for the info that helped clarifying the problem it was sad the way it was done but what mathers it's that the problem was sorted out and everyone that was having the problem can benefit from it.

The new HDD browser is now supported by the Infinity (no more need to
fastboot.) what does this mean? can we install the sony hd browser?

Gradius · #16 10-08-2004, 03:40 AM

- The new HDD browser is now supported by the Infinity (no more need to fastboot games with the official or non-official HDD).

Owners of USA PS2 will be able to install and use the new official HDD Browser coming with the HDDTools disk. All discs will be recognized and autoboot.

Is still coming... Not sure since it just says "the new official HDD Browser coming with the HDDTools disk".

Sounds like the disc (HDDTools) coming with official Sony HDD.

Readme.txt sure is confuse.
