Have seen backups are starting to be released again.

Think you need Phantasy Star Online and a Broadbrand adapter.

Anyone tried these?

Many thanks,

Joe.

requests are not allowed

where ever you normally download your stuff from p2p, newsgroups or irc

I can't see the point of even trying them yet. a load don't work at all, most of the ones that do work have messed up cutscenes and in-game music.

Many thanks,

Joe.

| The dogs of Paradox are proud to bring you the next installment of the |
| famous Animal Crossing loader. |
| |
| Eurasia decided to drop all GameCube activities so we are pleased to |
| be involved in the next evolution of this awesome loader. |
| |
| Special Thanks to X-He for testing and support... |
| |
| Features: |
| |
| - More speed (x2) |
| - More compatibility |
| - Only one boot mode for all iso |
| |
| Read the following notes below for usage instructions... |
| |
| ---------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| |
| Initial Setup: |
| ============== |
| |
| In Windows,Go to Control Panel/Network/LAN Connection/TCPIP properties |
| and change the PC IP address to 192.168.1.100, |
| subnet should be 255.255.255.0 |
| |
| In Phantasy Star Online.. |
| 1) In Main Menu, go to Options -> Network Option -> Provider Option |
| 2) Go to Network Setup in the Network Setup Menu |
| 3) In Select network Information settings, hit Edit |
| 4) In Edit ISP name, you don't need to change anything |
| 5) In Ethernet settings, choose |
| - Manually set an IP address |
| - Do not automatically disconnect |
| 6) In IP address manual-settings put |
| - IP address: 192.168.1.32 |
| - Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0 |
| - Default router: 192.168.1.100 |
| - Primary DNS: 192.168.1.100 |
| - Secondary DNS: leave it blank |
| - DHCP Hostname : Not set |
| 7) In Browser settings, you don't need to change anything |
| 8) Hit save to save all the net info, and you can go back to main menu.|
| |
| First connection |
| ---------------- |
| The purpose of the first connection is to let PSO save the user info |
| into the memcard so you don't have to enter them every time.. |
| If you already played PSO online, you don't need to do that. |
| |
| In Windows, open up Command Prompt/DOS |
| - run psul -s |
| - In Main Menu, choose Online game, and create a new character |
| - Enter any Serial Number, Access Key and Password (you won't have to |
| remember them), and skip the useless menus |
| - Save the Password to the memory card when prompted |
| - The GC should connect to the PC and you should get this message: |
| Saving user info on memory card... |
| Done... Now everything should be set up!! |
| |
| To upload a Gamecube game: |
| ========================== |
| |
| In Windows, open up Command Prompt/DOS |
| - FIRST run pdx-acl.exe <your game iso name> <arguments> |
| - Start psul.exe <your boot file> <arguments> |
| - start PSO goto online start an games |
| - Psul will transfer the boot file to the cube now |
| - When the loader has been booted press start (If you have problems |
| remove you memorycard) |
| - The game should load now |
| |
| Problems/Tweaking: |
| ================== |
| |
| If you are having problems with hanging, or the console is filling |
| up with X's and transfer rate is very slow, try using the delay |
| switch to slow down transfer rate from PC. |
| |
| Delay usage: pdx-acl.exe game.iso -d10 -f16 |
| |
| Delays for 10ms every 16 packets. |
| |
| If no -f switch is given the frequency of delay will default to |
| every one packet which is far slower and perhaps no more reliable |
| that a given frequency value. Experiment to find the optimum |
| settings for your system if you are having long loading times. |
| |
| The C Switch |
| ============ |
| |
| New to this build is -c for caching, its experimental and produces |
| different results on different games. -c will cache dvdreads to PC RAM |
| |
| example: pdx-acl.exe game.iso -c4 (This will cache 4MB) |
| |
| Remember: X indicates a bad packet, C indicates a cache fill... |
| the less X and C you see will give better results. |
| |
| Parts of this text were taken from PSUL doc (C) Crazy Nation... |
| |
| Enjoy! |

There's detailed how to guides in the link i posted on the 20th of october.

http://gc-compat.webhop.net

so how many of you guys tried this(PDX Animal Crossing Loader)? is it any good ie. any slowdown etc.?

Check Uranus's link has full details of what works and what the problems are.

Does`nt seem to good at the moment. Maybe with a better loader. It`ll be worthwhile.

Joe.
