Maybe because "normal game id" is same Main Id?.

use theme mode in psx2psp, there the names are correct (or use the same id for all id's)

I have used same id SLPS02480 for Id game and main game for first and second disk. (Because I haven't used "Theme Mode"), then is better recompile with theme mode, and use SLPS02480 for GAME ID and SAVE ID?.

Because now I tray to recompile in "Theme Mode".

I put SLPS02480 I Save ID and Game ID. For first Disk.

Now I have selected the second Disk and now, from default SAVE ID is set to SLPS02480 (Automatically), but Game Id of second disk is automatically setted to SLES12562. Then I must change to SLPS02480?.

Is only to be sure, to waste time to re-create for third time the Eboot.:o

This is correct?.

When I open Cwcheat in game, it say me in the memory card cwcheat option.

Sles-02562-0.mcr. It is the right saveid od first disk...it is a good thing?.

The gameid should be the same for both discs, otherwise it won't use the optimizations in the second! So yeah change it ;)
CWCheat I dunno about..

I used "theme mode".

Same SLPS02480 Id for CD1 and CD2. Game Id and saveid both with SLPS02480.

I am loading the game.

In cwcheat always see the game with original ID SLES-02562. But i put ID SLPS02480 in PSX2PSP!?!.:confused:

I don't know..

I don't know if this thing is important....

anyway...

Same problem. If I press "HOME" button with 4.01 popsoloader the option "Change Disk" is in Brown color (then not selectable).

If I try lo launch the game with " Original From Flash", the game start but rest in black scrren, but if I try to push "HOME" button, the "Change Disk" option is selectable, (white color) with two circle inside number 1 and 2.

I have fear, if I play the game, and after I can't change the disk!.:(

P.S. I always try with PAL version.

Hey Xenogears V what you want to do is use psx2pspto convert your eboot and slect the jap game from psx2psp game id menu set disc 1 to jap id disc 1 and disc 2 to jap disc 2 id that should work for you also to swap disc you Have to use the Reset option under home switch disc only lights up when the game asks for the disc to be swaped however theres a little trick if you load up off of disc 2 and try to start a new game it will ask for disc 1 press home and you can now test the disc swap (will be white not grey) hope this helps

Thanks for help mate. But now i play it with slps00025 with 3.10 Pops. No glitch no freeze.

Like said before, my Pc is old and slow, is a mess to load big file on Memory stick..I try it future.;)

let me know if you get any crashes it tends to crash when in battle if you get hit and knocked back as so the camera angle changes the game will freeze a good example would be in dryfield the desert chasers try it out get into battle with a desert chaser and move so that the camera angle changes and let the desert chaser knock you back so the camera angel changes back the game will hang P.S. AFAIK the PAL version needs to be patched (Copy Protection) to get past the square screen

I had pached it for sure, because I had ripped it from original Cd.

But now I playing Ntsc Version.

Now I am in Desert... In night walktrought. I killed the giant monster, no problem until now. Only a little defect. In a room in the first floor (in desert) graphic is disappearance, leaveing blue block to the place of the furniture, like when developent they create the videogames to the computer.

After a little time, returning in that room. No more problem.

Furniture was visible in the room.

Have played the game up to the end of the Mine level on Disc 2. Not one crash/fatal error. Two small (quite funny) glitches.

Changing to Disc 2 - Contrary to what is said you CANNOT save right before Disc 2. The nearest save point is in the shop in the trailer next to the garage. When Jake asks you to get on the truck, a cutscene plays and the words CHANGE TO DISC 2 come up on the screen. There IS a way around this - PE2 uses the Slave Disc system. Save your game in the trailer mentioned above and Quit Game. Delete the PE2 Disc 1 eboot off the PSP and put on PE2 Disc 2. Make sure the two eboots have the same SLPS00025 and all that. Now, load up Disc 2 on the PSP using the same POPS (3.11) and load your save file. You are now on disc 2 in the trailer. Go to the garage and get on the truck with Jake. I'm not 100% but MAKE SURE YOU SKIP THE FMV!!! Just hammer the START button and the game should continue as normal. That's what I did.

Glitch 1 - There is a room on the upper floor of the Motel that should be locked once you get into Dryfield. However, when you open it, the room has glitched and isn't textured. This isn't fatal (at least it wasn't to me) and when you exit the room, everything returns to normal. The door is now locked.

Glitch 2 - On the upper floor of the Motel, Aya has the master room. You can enter this also before you should be able to. It has a phone in it. If you find yourself in this room before you should be (the old guy should give you the Master Key) then just leave. This also didn't seem to affect my game.

Hope this helps someone.

Interesting is from these things seems no problem in Disc two.

I add another thing.....Some problem have the game to load (in disk one), savegame in the desert location....I don't know...but after shower scene, if you save the game in other place, for example in the lobby, the game when load, is stuck in loading screen...then is better after shower scene to go ahead until end of disk one.

To proceed to disc 2 you need to save your game before getting into the
truck at the trailer. Then exit the game, now you can run the disc 2 eboot and continue your game.

Other thing.

Aya master room, (where she is make the shower), has a problem. When in the desert become night, the door don't open anymore, even with the master key.

When you fight with big monster, be sure to stay in the corridor, or in the right site, because if , for example, you kill the big monster forehead the Master Room, you are f*cked. Because you can go down.:(

I think if guilty of popsloader.

i dont understand why people insist on using 3.10 pops when the game runs fine as a multi-disc eboot under 4.01 pops then theres no trouble with making 2 eboots then switching them around every time very strange i must say:confused::confused::confused:

Dany23
11-14-2008, 07:40 PM
it's because u cannot save the game just before switching disc..using a 2 eboot version doesnt allow to continue disc 2 because u have to quit the game completly, load disc 2 but then u r stuck, u cannot load the save game because it was made before the disc switch menu. using a 1 eboot let you load disc 2 without quitting the game, u simply press home-reset game and choose load disc 2. Next do a search, not every game let you save before changing disc

You dont need to reset the game to change disc you just use the swap disc feature in pops under the home menu no need to reset to swap disc so my last post still stands i dont get why people insist on using 3.10 to play parasite eve 2 when it runs perfect on 4.01 ive done the game using 4.01 and disc swap worked fine no reset needed just like it was on the old greystation:)

nobody is talking in this thread about pops 3.10, where did you get that? The title says 4.01, wich means, if you didn't guessed, that most, if not all people use pops 4.01 and not 3.10. We are not stupid, if a better solution is found for a game, specially multidisc games we are gonna use that and not the old version. Unless people are n00bs but most of them are not n00bs.

what are you on about i was the one who got this game working as a multi disc eboot i know what the title says i made it this is my thread and if you read the whole thread you see people still using the old 3.10 pops as thats what pe2 used to run on till i discovered a way to make it work on 4.01 then theres you banging on about no being able to save before disc 2 using a multi disc eboot you dont need to save before disc 2 because the disc swap feature works perfect the whole game runs perfect cant even make if crash if you want to i have tried

Dany23
11-17-2008, 09:53 PM
ok fine, you r right, but don't forget, not everybody has a huge memory stick to carry in 1 shot a 1.4gb game. I know PE2 is probably the worst example, because a 2gb stick cost like 20-30$ but games with 4-5 discs (Fear Effect, FFVIII and FFIX) came out 2-3gb compressed, wich means u have to buy a 4 or 8gb sticks. Some people then like to use the 2 eboots version, they finish 1 cd, delete it and copy the 2nd or 3rd cd.

Parasite eve II will not work on 5.00 pops as the post before this one said it will crash on the square logo without an id change and with an id change (jap id) it will just gaive a black screen wont even show the ps logo so just use the jap id and 4.01 pops it works 100%

follow the popsloader stickied tutorial thread you didn't install 4.01 inside popsloader (just installing th eplugin is not enough)

Thanks for the great find with this! I also got a multi-disc eboot working on 4.01. One thing you might clarify is the following:

The Game ID of Disc 1 needs to be: SLPS02480
but...
The Game ID of Disc 2 needs to be: SLPS02481

I know it took me a couple of tries to realize this as I put SLPS02480 for the Game ID of both discs as some games need you to do.

A question I do have though is that the "Switch Discs" option is grayed out even though I have both discs as 1 eboot. Is this supposed to be like that under 4.01 and is only used if running a game with CFW5.0?

bond109
02-18-2009, 11:53 AM
the swap disc option is greyed out because the game has not prompted a disc change if you want to test it load a disc 1 save from disc 2 when you try to load the save the game will prompt you to change disc you will then be able to use the swap disc option hope that clears things up for you

Alright, thanks. I thought that would be how it works but I've never done it before so I wasn't sure. Once again, thanks for the help.
