Demo wrote:well, sony id is only used by released games. you picked the right file. since date is the same, you have found the beta you wanted.

I know. I had it since like... uhm... April or May? I dunno. XD

I eventually found the ID using ePSXe's logs, from BOTH versions! The hacked version (the version with the creepy Test Level), and the normal version (the version with the Primus song and the video billboard).

Normal Version: SLU__668.98
Hacked Version: SLU_870.80

Sorry for off-topic, but speaking of ePSXe, weren't you on the team? Or was that another guy named _Demo_?

i doubt this has anything to do with real sony index as you may create any iso and it will come up with some index. it's probably used to load the correct save state.
that's another guy. I didn't know we shared the alias by the time I came with this one. however I helped them to translate the android version.

Ah, ok. Thanks.

Just an edit so I won't double post or anything, but I wonder what this is for in the Downhill level?

It's about the same color as the SKATE letters. Maybe you originally had to collect these things instead of SKATE.

Here's your THPS4 PS2 BETA, standalone iso made by me:

And I'll have your Jampack Winter 2002 demo as soon as it arrives in the mail for me to rip it.

There you go bro! http://tnthps.us

Led, in the first post the information you wrote about TNT's recent upload is incorrect. His demo that he has uploaded IS the one from Kelly Slater.

I messaged him and explained and told him to add the Jampack version as well, he hasn't been on to see it I guess.

The one in kelly slater is based off a similar era build, but it doesn't have the main menu, level/skater select, or any of the other dev stuff in it. and it starts using a special menu instead of the main menu.

That menu can also be accessed in the other demo in the debug menu listed as "Screensaver".

I tried to run both THPS4_JampackWinter2002Demo_TNThps.us.iso, and THPS4PS2Demo_byTNT_TNThps.us.iso and they both seem to be just the same demo. in fact they seem to be the same iso from what I can tell. Did you happen to upload the same demo by accident?

No, they were definitely separate ones. I tested in PCSX2, and it loaded the full menu with the dev options, and then put it straight into my PS2 and it loaded the other menu without the dev options.

PCSX2 fools the demo into loaded the dev menus. There should be a way to mod the iso to reflect the dev menu though on a ps2. I can definitely try to make that happen in my free time. It just honestly appears to me like they added separate files for the demo on top of their dev version, so if we just remove the flags we could have a standalone version for physical PS2 consoles. If we're getting into all that though, we could take it a step further and add the levels, etc, because a lot of the data is still there, but that's really if we wanted to make a project out of it, and I don't know if anyone wants to.

They could both be the same version on both disks, I guess, but I did rip one specifically from Kelly Slater, which I downloaded from TheIsoZone.com, and then the other from a brand new Jampack disk I ordered from Amazon just to rip it, because there were no downloads for that specific Jampack.

TNT did upload the demo from Kelly Slater and Jampack. But they are byte-for-byte the same. As discovered by TNT, if played in the emulator, the game detects it as a dev system and will go to the skateshop. If not, it will launch to college with this small menu.

I converted the THPS2 PS1 Demo and the THPS3 PS1 Beta to EBOOTS if you want to play them on your PSP. If you guys want, I'll upload them.

About uploading the beta, I'll think about it, I found it on some site back in around 2009, Like i said, Only 3 Levels work

I guess I'm way too late to ask this, how in the world did you get that version of the beta? You said you might upload it, but that was like 3 years ago. I don't know if you still have that beta of THPS4. I appreciate TNT's THPS4 Beta ISO, but that one doesn't have the Beta HUD and was taken from KSPS/Jampack Winter. I'm really desperate for that Beta HUD. So if you still have this beta please upload it, I'm also doing research on the Beta version of THPS4 so this'd be greatly appreciated.

THPS Dreamcast 12/10/99 beta, mostly UI differences, FPS display in game, and a locked cheat menu on the main menu.
