NR Disc PSO 1&2

Anyone have a copy of this they are willing to part with? I need to back up some NR discs and this is the only solution I can see happening until I get a GDEV (who knows how long that will take). :-(

Roger that, No more need for this topic

 

so is it possible to exploit the nr cube via nr pso?

nice :nod:

 

Request seconded, if anyone has another one, please get in touch!

 

Yep, I proved this a long time ago :nod:

 

then i'll definetly need one too...

 

Erm, use a usual modchip (qoob, for example - it includes a ripper) on a retail gamecube, and put the NR-drive to the unit (yes, that works - the really really only difference between a retail unit and NR reader is the drive). Then use normal ripping software (for example the qoob-integrated ripper, or whatever), and you can make an image.

Do GDEVs have DVD drives at all?

 

Wow, I never knew this

 

nope, only npdp.

and that drive swapping really works? awesome, have to try that

 

Chipping an NR reader isn't the same though, plus you get a nice new NR disk for your collection.

Looks like I have little choice though, nobody has come up with a concrete offer of a copy, or even the facilities to burn the tools for me (I have blank NR's).

The drive swapping does work, spent hours inside my 2 NR readers swapping bits around.

 

Technically NPDP stuff doesn't have optical drives at all; the NPDP cubes and GBOXes are cart-based and the GDEV only emulates discs off a PC ;-)

Depends on how technical you want to get. The NPDP certainly thinks it is talking to a GC disc when it boots up. It has no idea that's really a cart in the system. Brilliant piece of engineering on that kit.

...So true, being able to 'fool' the system that you've 'opened the lid', changed a 'disc' and then 'force' a disc read error, is the ultimate example of clever and useful emulation.

 

Well, I know this is abit off topic... but you can get the GC ''chip'' that allows you to switch from pal to NTSC, keeping that in mind if you remove the shell of a GC and place a back-up DVD-rom if your game it will work.

 

But that still wouldn't read an NR disk.

 

ya true, gimmie a day or so, see what i can scratch up

 

My noob alarm's gone off.

 

wow, thx...

 

hey no problem I use to be part of the dark scene for abit, so I dont know what I say or not, but I tons of info on why some things came out, who really released DC boot disc, xbox mod, where 90 percent of ps2 mods came from etc
