HDLoader games list

[robmrom]

I remember hearing somewhere that there was a patch for HDLoader
somewhere that would allow more games to be viewed in HDLoader's
gamelist, but before I start dealing with that, is there another way?

I've filled up HDLoader's game list to the end of the screen, but now,
anytime I attempt an installation that would put me past the end of
the screen, it tells me I'm out of disc space - though I have 87 gigs
free.

Thanks for any help.

Ok, in case someone else runs into this problem as well, installing
a game through HDLDumb resolved the issue. No clue why, but
now I can install games though HDLoader again, in conjunction
with HDLDumb.

Thats because using those programs or even Winhiip 1.7.6 which is what I use allows the 48bit hdloader which is needed for hard drives over 137GB

I just use hdloader8c.elf and use Winhiip to transfer games.

I see there is a new hdloader though that allows up to 1000GB hdd.

Actually, it appears to have been some sort of bad spot
on the HD (something I knew was there previously, but
had hoped was closer to the end of the HD.) The HD is
only 160 gig to begin with; once I forced an install with
HDLDumb, HDLoader resumed able to install games itself.


Makes no sense to me, but hey... it works now, so I'm
happy.

I want a terabyte in my PS2. That would be awesome.
But then... I don't even have half that in my PC.

Well thats good you got it fixed.

I see the new hdloader allows people to update their hdloader if they wish.

Yeah thats a lot of hdd 1 terabyte. I have a few drives that make that up, but not just one.
