COBRA FOR VIPER GC V0.3 - ³

³ (Early Beta Version) ³

³ ³

³ 27th of december, 2004 ³

³ ³

³ ³

³ As we promised here is the first update of the Cobra Bios

³

³ Yes! It is true, no more need to swap with an original disc anymore. ³

³ Just put your DVD-R or Mini-DVD-R in your GC Drive and power on with the lid closed ³

³ And for our fellow PAL users there also have been improvements in the code for PAL consoles ³

³ ³

³ USER MANUAL ³

³ ³

³ - Flash the Viper GC with this BIOS then remove the parallel port ³

³ connector from the programmer ³

³ ³

³ - Turn on your GC with your backup ³

³ If there's no Title Screen coming, but the original BIOS instead ³

³ it's probably that you messed up your viper install:-) ³

³ Check your install ³

³ If you have a black screen coming, it's probably because you have ³

³ some wierd BIOS we don't support (and don't know about) yet. ³

³ ³

³ - While turning on your GC: ³

³ - Hold X if you want to boot Original BIOS instead ³

³ - Hold Y if you want to boot Original BIOS with region-free hack ³

³ - Hold B if you want to run the new Viper executable manager ³

³ - Don't hold any button if you want to run DVD-R :-) ³

³ ³

³ - Remove the top of your GC if you want to use full-size DVD-R ³

³ ³

³ THE MEDIA ³

³ ³

³ The GC drive only eats DVD-R, MINI-DVD-R and single-layer silver DVD, ³

³ it works with a few bunch of + media but its NOT supported. Also no DL at all. ³

³ Like Xbox thomson drive, it is very "sensitive" to the brand of ³

³ media you're using. Some are working better than others, some even ³

³ NOT AT ALL! So better check what media other users recommend. ³

³ Check the compatible media list from our guys @ ps2ownz ³

³ ³

³ You don't need to encrypt the disc or use a special burner firmware ³

³ to write the disc. Just burn your ISO/GCM (Nero, DVD Decrypter, Record Now Max). ³

³ ³

³ As we have checked the DVD writer used makes no difference to the result ³

³ ³

³ CHANGES (from 0.2 version) ³

³ - Improved code for PAL machines. Fixed anoying bug with the lid at startup time ³

³ - Preliminar Swap Disc Code. A few games are working now ³

³ - Some improvements to the streaming audio, sega games now stream audio correctly ³

³ - Viper GC IO manager. Upload your dols, and manage them with a menu system (128 KB limit) ³

³ - Direct Boot. Now correct boot code is inserted into the cobra bios (generic) so no need of an original disc now ³

³ - Extended compatibility. Only a few games don't boot now, we are still checking disc, any info is really helpful ³

³ ³

³ TROOBLESHOOTING ³

³ ³

³ REMEMBER, THIS IS AN EARLY BETA VERSION ! ³

³ There are probably lots of bugs we need to fix including: ³

³ - If the drive becomes idle for a couple of minutes, depending on the ³

³ media you're using it might loose sync, and hang. This is also a ³

³ bug of ours we will track. For now, if this happens to you, avoid ³

³ "PAUSE MODE" in games. ³

³ ³

³ - Audio Streaming is still very buggy, some games work, some don't. ³

³ Just turn off music with those games ³

³ ³

³ - Disc swap, doesn't work everytime. If you have problems, close the lid and open it again. If still doesn't work, then that game is still unsupported ³

³ ³

³ REMEMBER, THIS IS AN EARLY BETA VERSION ! ³

³ ³

³ Note that on screen there's a two digit number corresponding to your ³

³ GC version (right after the Cobra Version). Here are the current ³

³ versions we support: 13,14,16,18,24,26,28,34,36,38,44,46,48,52. If you have ³

³ another version, then wait a little more ³

³ ³

³ IF YOU MAKE BACKUPS, DON'T USE ANY "WIPE" TOOLS TO SAVE SPACE. Unless ³

³ you know it's REALLY working. Most of thoses tools only work because ³

³ the current pso loaders patch libraries routines to emulate DVD. But ³

³ on REAL HARDWARE, each file/fst has to be aligned on a 4-byte boundary! ³

³ Else nothing will work. Audio Files (for audio streaming) even need ³

³ to be aligned on a 32kb-boundary ! So forget current "WIPE" tools until ³

³ they are fixed. ³

³ ³

³ ³

³ CLOSING WORDS ³

³ ³

³ Special thanks Ps2Ownz for their charts, you guys sure helped a lot ³

³ ³

³ You are free to redistribute this package as long as it's not changed, ³

³ patched, ported, or whatever. ³

³ ³

³ Our code is free of any copyrighted code from third party. ³

³ ³

³ To tmbinc, viper chip has NOTHING to do with YOUR IPL replacement, so fuck off and stop saying things you still don't know ³

³ ³

³ Have a nice Game :-P ³

ELLE EST PAS BELLE LA VIE............ mais ou le trouver???????????????
