Fix to play ntsc disks in ps2..

    I'm using Swap Magic with Fliptop lid to play imported backup games. The only problem is that the backups are in NTSC format whilst the ps2 slimline and swap magic are PAL. This is resulting in the games playing in black and white.


    Is there a way of getting a fix for this so that they play in colour?

    okay so i have a chipped ps2 and my imported[ntsc etc] games would show b/w so i used to dump them on pc and patch them as pal and re burn them, patching them makes the screen go offset but patcher had some sort of yfix,
    if that didnt work i used a cd loader that makes ntsc to show pal,
    you would have to use your loader, then this cd loader , then your game.
    il try look for the cdloader link, its free and legit ASFAIK

    if you use a fully pinned scart lead or s-video lead that should work also. much cheaper and a lot less hassle. your tv will also need to be able to accept NTSC 60Hz signals though.

    this solved the problem for me
