replacing scsi cd-rom drive with scsi sd card adapter?

[Wraith]

Did you rewrite the game and try using both versions, or just pop switch out the SD cards?

 

[Darksoft]

I was gonna say ^THAT^

@Wraith Yes i just finished rewriting the game like 15min ago.
That's when the freezing started.
Cloned again the games on the sds but didn't then rewrite the game. Should i??

 

[Darksoft]

Yes you should. That's how game gets copied from microSD towards the SIMMS.

@Darksoft I see sorry, my understanding of how the whole thing works, as you can see, is close to null.
Which version should I use then, just to make sure I'm using the right one? (since it was one of your carts )

 

[Darksoft]

if it was a repro cart then use the standard SH2. Go to the menu and rewrite the game.

Let us know how it goes.

 

[Mitsurugi-w]

Pretty sure the answer will be "I rewrote the game using standard SH2 version and now all is well"

The system does not write from the disc/sd card every boot. The game is loaded and then held in memory until written over. On every boot after the game is written the system checks for the proper disc and then boots.

 

[Wraith]

Fingers crossed hope it works out. Are you one of the French guys that came to DTN?

Well it didn't work with the Standard but the Custom version (go figure)... But it DID work indeed!
Thanks a lot for the help everyone! m(_ _)m

I don’t think he ever said it was a repro cart which would explain why custom sh2 version worked for him.

I would understand that if it was one of MY carts, it would be a reproduction. The other ones were made by Capcom

This dude won the Gutter Trash tourney in the UK.

Mmmh it is most definitely one of your carts DS, I even recall sending you the money through PayPal and all. I copied both Standard and Custom on the mSDs and started randomly by Custom to rewrite and it worked. 乁| ･ 〰 ･ |ㄏ

@Wraith unfortunately I couldn't make it to DTN, I really wanted to (( I was one of the Frenchies who made it to TFC a couple years back when the Japanese were also there. Maybe this year, if the Jazzy Circuit continues I'll try and come steal a qualifier ୧( ˵ ° ~ ° ˵ )୨

Looking to replace my CD-drive for the SCSI2SD.

But which of the two versions should I buy? The v5.1 or the v6? They seem to have slightly different features and sizes.

Any help gratefully received.
