    JoJo's Bizarre Adventure detecting that my PS1 is modded?

    Just got a modded PS1 to play region free games. Not sure which mod is in it.

    A few games have worked fine but my copy of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure throws up this screen which I can't get out of after pressing start on the attract mode. It displays a loading screen for the main menu presumably and throws this up requiring a console reboot.

    The Google translate app on my phone doesn't give great results but it thinks it is something about a modification. This is a legit copy of JoJo, is it detecting this is a modded machine?

    Quite possibly. I had the same on a couple of my PS1 games too, Snobow Kids perhaps.
    Lie with passion and be forever damned...

      Cheers, that's annoying. I'll try it on my PS2 test kit instead.

        This is why you shouldn't just randomly buy a modded PS1, you need a stealth chip.

        Will play on your debug PS2. Hope your PS2 debug is NTSC though or it will run incorrectly at 50Hz.

          You can download a patch for it here which removes the check. There should be a guide on the site explaining how to use ppf



          Not all ‘stealth’ chips circumvent every protected game so a ‘stealth’ chip per se is incorrect. It should specifically be mayumi v4 / MM3 code to play everything.

            Guess I should have specified that. I was getting at that having a machine modded with a contemporary solution rather than buying blind would be the way to go. I like the Mayumi V4 myself, feels slightly more integrated.

                You can also try a boot disc called 'Import Player Light' which can easily be downloaded if you google it (v2.1 appears to be the last version released). Besides having antimod capability it can also run PAL games at 60hz and vice versa.

                  Cheers for the suggestions guys. I'll get burning some disks.
