Okay hopefully someone can help me.

I've been putting all my PSP games onto my harddrive for safekeeping and so I can run isos from the memory stick. So far so good except I'm having problems doing so with Darkstalkers.

I'm ripping the UMD onto my 2gb memory stick using the dump function on Fastloader V0.7. I'm then extracting the file onto my harddrive using Winrar and making it into an iso using umdgen. Then I'm sticking it onto the memory stick as you do.

I've tried it with both Fastloader and UMD Emulator and the screen just goes kinda 'psychedelic' and freezes. At first I thought it was because I'd ripped an important file by accident when using umd gen (even though I was pretty sure I'd not touched it) but when I did it all again from scratch I had the same problem.

I really want a working iso of this game. The load times are bad (especially as it's not graphically heavy) plus I don't like carrying loads of UMDs with me both as it's a hassle and in case they get damaged.

I've had no problems with any of my other games doing exactly the same process so I don't know what I may be doing wrong here.

Anyone? Thanks in advance.

Is the iso your trying to run completely un-edited from the UMD?

If so, I guess the only answer is the most current iso loaders aren't advanced enough for that piticular game.

I had this problem too mine was around 690 mb and it just froze in straight from dump.

so i threw a ripkit on it and now it works I don't know wich kit it was but The extra's and musi are gone and that's all I don't mind that so maybe you can try that

use vcdromx, not umdgen.

half the time my dumps never work when rebuilding with umdgen. but they ALWAYS work when rebuilding with vcdromx.

Jambooboo,

What was the unedited iso size on the 2gb ms for darkstalkers after you ripped it from the umd?

zshadow is right. I just had the same problem when i rebuilt the file with umdgen. It wasnt working at all. Then i rebuilt it with vcdromx and it worked flawlessly.
