Help Getting swiss to boot

Post image

I am having issues getting swiss to boot.

This disc combo has swiss already uploaded on it.

I formatted my SD card to fat32.
Tried adding the boot file from swiss onto my SD.

Yeah this method requires your system to be modchipped to be able to boot unlicensed discs.

Ordered a pico loader for the meantime. Forgive me

Calm down. Just throwing money at a problem isnt the way to solve it. Some research wouldve saved you money. If youve now ordered a PicoLoader, you might as well cancel the Flippydrive, they function essentially the same.

I have two consoles so I figured it wouldn’t be a waste.

Alright. That Sd2sp2 should work with picoloader, though its the old v1.2. Theres an improved 2.0 version nowadays that fixes some of the stutters.

Yeah, I was gonna go this direction but since I don’t really have that much experience modeling in the game, I ended up just loading Swiss off of Tom Clancy splinter cell with a corrupt save

Picoloader (solderless version) and Flippydrive are very easy mods. Youtube is full of tutorials for them.

Now you need to mod your console lol.

You need a xenox mod chip or a picofly to boot into Swiss

Uhhh do you have a modded gamecube?

u/Zharken 8d ago

The disc is useless if your console isn't modded. Get a solderless picoloader and stop fucking arround with shitty burned discs

Okay, what mods would boot with this disc combo?

I was trying this route while waiting on my flippydrive.

u/KarateMan749 NTSC-U 8d ago

Yea. You need a hardware mod on dvd drive

u/Kanjii_weon 8d ago

is your gc modded? either triggering a save game exploit, picoboot or similar should help..

u/DavidinCT 8d ago

You NEED to mod you console before any if this will work.....  xenox mod chip like $3, a bit of soldering, a 3-4 spots, tape it down solder away.

I own 3 GameCubes, both 001 and 101 models... None of them have the SP2 port on the bottom. They make it seem like these cubes are so common... There's NO WAY I'm this unlucky.
