PS1/2 Possible to fix certain games that don't work with ESR?

[BigMane]

I have both Gitaroo Man and PaRappa The Rapper 2 but they don't work with ESR, either one gives a black screen or the other has sound issues and crashes.

I can't play my own copies due to them being scratched up and I got no other option.

I don't know about OPL with the USB option and using the HDD option still requires me to get a few things.

Are you patching the ISO files with ESR Patcher?

ESR requires you do to that in order for games to load properly



If you are patching and they still dont work I dunno. I have little experience with ESR

Try with the different version of ESR

Parappa 2 only works through external hard drive using OPL. Your options are use a hard drive to play it or re-buy the game.

sorry for the late response but its possible to play parappa the rapper 2 off of a usb using op, but it must be opl version 1.00 (for people that are struggling to run parappa the rapper 2 on OPL)

If you have a compatible PS2 you can use mechapwn to run masterdisc burns (or unmodified burns if you use the more drastic "forcd unlock" mode, both of which supposedly have full game compatibility. Alternatively you can resurface the disc (manually, or you can go to a shop (e.g. a game shop) that has a machine, although those machines can potentially be be a bit overkill and put small fractures in the disc's transparent plastic part).

Or at least that's what I'm told.

Hey everyone, since then I've gotten a FAT PS2 with a modchip installed and freehdboot, everything runs pretty fine but the only problem I have is that some games like Jak & Daxter, Ratchet & Clank etc wont play at all of the hard drive, some do.


They are EU dumps but I did also try US ones because of 60hz obviously, no bad dumps at all but I just get a black screen using OPL or whatever else was suggested to me.


Can anyone help me out on this? I've tried erasing the HDD and reinstalling everything pretty much from scratch with no luck, doubt it's the PS2 itself...

what model do you have if it's a fat i recommend a hdd adapter (sata prefered) the go for around $20 on ebay/amazon and their compatibility with OPL is in the 80-90% range you can even play PAL//NTSC-J iso's directly from the drive don't forget though the hdd limit is 2TB because of MBR also it's recommended to format your hdd using the PS2 itself wlaunchelf/Ulaunchelf can do that (go to misc-----> hddmanager when i loads your drive hit R1 and select format)
