Not to go off topic, but I should be recieving mine today also.
According to the review of the chip, the reviewers say you cannot use a backup copy of your own. You have to download the game from the internet, and convert. Is this true?
Is there no other options? I have made an image with wxripper, but have done nothing to the image (no patching) Could I not use this method and patch with this chips SS?
I would like to know, I ordered it C.O.D, and want to know if i should refuse it.
Thanks
you can rip your own using wxripper, make sure image is 7.05 gb, then patch ss.bin with ss merger 1.6, then run underdog NME conrter and burn.
BE AWARE if you have a pioneer 111D, it will not burn the disc properly and game will not boot. I had to use my Lite-on SOHW-1693S to get the games to boot

say if you do download from sites and the iso is not 7.03 gb it will not work ?
From The Rules
I'll state it very simply.. Do not discuss pirate downloads. If you are backing up your own games then enjoy the forums, but if you are downloading warez releases then we don't want to hear about it. At all.
Don't say:
- "I'm going to try/am trying/tried 'warez release X'".. that just tells the world you downloaded it.
- "Does 'warez release Y' work with the TS-H943 hack?".. we don't care, we're not here to help you pirate.
- "No, really, I'm just interested in the hypothetical possibilities that 'warez release Z' might work with...".. see above, then take the discussion elsewhere.
We have a zero-tolerance policy towards piracy, and any post that shows member is engaging in piracy will be suspended or banned.
If anyone else takes this topic down the same road the thread is over. So please respect the original poster and don't ruin this for him
