Making a Hacking guide (PS2dis)
trying to make a complete guide to it (this is going to piss off some people) Im putting it togethr with alot of talented people. let me know if you want in on it, you'll get credit on it.
its time to open everyone eyes cause you are nothing more then a battery(saw the matrix one to many 600 times)

[garnick]

sounds awesome.. though your reasons for doing it seem stupid. You seem very upset with just about everyone.

[GMO]

of course my reason mybe be stupid but it is making me do the guide faster cause im been on it for weeks
just needed some inspiration

[CygnusXI]

GMO, I would love a hacking guide.

[GMO]

some far, i got some functions, Hacking with labels, how to gwt your master codes (single elf), and im currently on hacking without labels

[Codemasta]

GMO,you know me,i can always use that hacking guide! ;)

[Tommy24]

wooo, I can't wait until you get this guide finished:wow:

[martinewei]

GMO, i support you.

[Liquidvlade]

I had like 85% complete of the perfect hacking guide, till I had to reformat the HD, man it had all with ps2dis, how to convert with kpd's, and all type of converters, even some basics with IDA... :(

[CygnusXI]

Mmmm... ok.. nothing really to add here.. Except support :)
Any help needed?

[Liquidvlade]

Well, Ill help GMO finish this guide

[Tommy24]

good, I can't wait until you guys have it finished. I'll support you guys all the way.

[invisibleman]

i hope hacking without labels is as good as it sounds.

it feels like i have tried every label for some games........

[Mochi]

Praise be to GMO!

If you need any help, let me know.

Cheers!

Mochi

[hacker07]

ass soon as you finish send to me .....i been wanting to get into console hacking....this summer goin back to computers :P im gonna have fun

[invisibleman]

any chance of a realease date?

:)

[Tommy24]

yea, i'de like to know when it will be released too.

[Codemasta]

lemme know when its done dude.

[GMO]

hopefully by next month

[CygnusXI]

*does happy dance*
:)

[Codepunk]

i really wanna learn how to hack ps2 codes!!!

thank you so much for making this FAQ GMO!

[khdg]

wait..........................................
just wait game codes,

[Tommy24]

I think if he's gonna take the time out to make the guide the least the people that are going to be reading could do is wait. I think that he will tell us when it gets finished so we don't have anything to worry about.

[invisibleman]

any chance of an update on how long or something
cant wait

[Codemasta]

Yeah guys calm down! he said he's working on it!

im sure he'll post it when its done.

[DemonEyesKyo]

Yo i cant wait until this guides done should b a good guide or so it sounds.

[GMO]

im revamping the ITM site a lil, P (http://codes.ps2newz.net/codes.php)utting up the guides as i go along

[Tommy24]

Looks good dude, keep it up :)

[GMO]

added "Code Condensing Basic" to the guides

[GMO]

added Advanced Code Condensing

[Pyriel]

It might be worthwhile to point out the address limitations on those codes. People will still ask, I'm sure, but it just might cut down a bit on the number of people asking why codes like
41560155 00040001
01010101 00000000

don't function. You alluded to the restrictions in your examples, but never came right out with it.

In the advanced condensing guide, you used 00040001 as your counter/offset multiplier and stated you'd explain what that part of the code did. I don't see it anywhere in there. I can't think of a good, completely non-technical way to explain that off the top of my head, so I don't envy you trying :cool:

Nice work.

[GMO]

i said i will post about it later as soon as i find out more info about it

[Pyriel]

Hmmm so you did. What additional information do you need though? I always thought the function of that part of the code was pretty specific.

[GMO]

according to the 4xxxxxxx > 00040001 < this affects who you are going to get
03030303 < keeps each persons value at 3 ( you get all there costumes and stuff > 00000000 i always kept it there

[dmplz7]

cool

[dmplz7]

new guide was added
How to create a multi elf master code

only works with
Cosmic Cheat, Codebreaker, Xploder, and GS v3.

GS2/AR2 must wait a little longer

[whitee322]

gj GMO, i've been reading all ur guides at Gamehax too. they're really helpful, cut straight to the point, unlike most mips tutorials. no any good ones? i have the acrobat reader, and some other one's, but i want REALLY good ones

[Tommy24]

I bet your looking for guides that just have things about all those little symbols right? EX: a0, v1, addu, etc? Good luck finding one that has all of those symbols and thier functions. I've looked everywhere and I can't find anything that just has the symbols. I've seen them talk about some of them in guides but I haven't found a guide just about them. The only thing I could find relativly close to what I was looking for is that guide of MIPS that Ace1 has.

[dmplz7]

looking in the LInk section on the ITM Site

[GMO]

new guide added

How to Create An AR2 Multi Elf Master code

yea, i haven't been able to find any either. i've read through the one's i have. but it's not enough, I NEED MORE, MORE MORE, lol. i know it takes time, but i just don't have it, i need a good tutorial so if anyone knows one hit me up.

[Tommy24]

I've been looking for A guide like this for a long time. but I have 0% of luck. So I too would like to have a guide like this if someone can get it.

[GMO]

http://codes.ps2newz.net/links.php?op=viewlink&cid=7

[Tommy24]

The first guide I read awhile back and the last one I read just recently. I have a fairly good understanding of some of the things but there is also a still a few things I have no clue on. BTW that 2nd guide is just a little weird. it opens in note pad but it is all cluttered and no very understandable. but I will read ass much of it as I can. Thanx dude, your the man.

[GMO]

dont copy the intro, i was thinking out loud while watching Kungfu Movies, and full metal jacket

[MeNo2003]

hey im new to this site but ive been try'n to learn how to hack im mess'n with my ps2dis but i still have'nt figured out how to hack. if u finished tha hack'n guide can i please have it to study it ? lemme know please right back

[GMO]

[GMO]

i get that too, i see whats up

[Tommy24]

Hey GMO how's about a joker command guide?

[GMO]

Joker Command guide.... i should shouldnt i.

[Tommy24]

yup, Because you don't see to many joker commands posted for ps2 games unless you use a joker that is in a code. I.E. press L3 for infinite health.

This link is down. Is this guide posted anywhere else? I'm new to PS2 hacking and I was wondering how much program knowledge is needed. I'm real good with programs in assembler language and have a good knowledge of C++ would this be enough to hack PS2 games? Thanks.

[Tommy24]

Yea, sounds like you Don't need to go through the rough stuff I went through. Having to read that big ass guide about assembly language.

here is a Backup of it (http://ps2hacking.dpinoyweb.com)

[Tommy24]

Better than nothing right? Well do you have any idea when the other 1 will be back up?

EDIT: any update as to if you making a joker guide?

[GMO]

im working on one

[dabsac]

They were very helpful. I learned that the assembly language that I'm familiar (68HC11) with is slightly different from the one used in the PS2 (MIPS). Many of the commands used in MIPS are slightly different than what I know and it looks like MIPS uses different registers also, so I'm going to have to learn more about the MIPS language before I'll be able to hack effectively.

[Pyriel]

Heh, "slightly different." Do they still force students to use those old Motorola trainers in computer engineering classes or did you pick it up some place else?

[dabsac]

Yeah they forced us to use the Motorola trainers, but I didn't use them in Computer engineering. I used it in Electronics engineering. You are right though the 2 languages are more than slightly different, but on most of the codes in MIPS I can figure out what they are trying to do simply because of my 68HC11 experience. I could probably pick up on the MIPS language quickly, because of what I know about the 68HC11.

[KRISHNAMURTI]

i dont find the guides to ps2 games hacking?
my heart is weak and my soul strong,
i going to become the protector of does i now need me and i can call friends!...hu?
sorry i am all emotinal! ^_^
GMO..I hope you can tell me where they are located?
most all is close !...i cant find it?

just wait games.........
just wait soon i go to show how is the elf hunter?
by the way thanks for all your codes like always GMO
SAVE THE DAY! ^_^

[UNE]

You should include a tutorial on how to make joker codes

[Tommy24]

yea, I told GMO about it a while ago. He's been working on one as far as I know. So just give em time.

[GMO]

im going to be releasing a CodeKit tommrow in the Y! version of the ITM_Public Download station

Includes..
Ps2 Code Decoder
Master04
guides.. (itm ps2dis guide, EE core manuel, and ALTPG)
opcodes list
and reference to ... i cant tell you everything about it. it will be up tommrow.

P.S. this is great for beginners who want to get started!

[Tommy24]

sounds good dude. can't wait to see what all you have in it.

[GMO]

it up right now!

[Tommy24]

it's good dude. You need to fix your WinRaR download though. It downloads allright but when you get ready to install it it won't install the .exe

[UNE]

I cant open the PS2Dis guide. There is a problem with the images. here is the error i get:

Unable to load graphics conversion filter. Continue with document conversion?

So i click yes and it says:

Unable to load graphics conversion filter. Continue with document conversion?

So now i click no and it syas:

An unexpected error occorred while reading C:\Documents and Settings\User\My Documents\PS2\CodeKit\The Guide to PS2Dis.doc.

you are trying to open a .doc with something other than microsoft word, wordpad probably. it will open in wordpad eventually but not with any images, get word installed.

[GMO]

v1.9 is up. I'll add the Mips rar up later. the yahoo groups seems to be down now :(

[LaBoom]

is there an updated version/.?

[ochpsx]

Anyone knows of a software that allows you to hack ps2 codes instead of manually editing the ps2 disc memory itself?
I remember that in PSOne, you can connect it to a parallel port then install the software that comes with the device called PC Comms Link and the ps games then can be hacked through the software itself.
Thanks.

[Tommy24]

nope, this stuff hasn't been made. As for right now if you want to hack codes you gotta do it the hard way.

[ochpsx]

How I wish we could create our own PS2 codes in a more easier manner! :(

[GMO]

i wish too

[GMO]

going to be adding the add on guides soon, so be on the look out (its a big PAL user special)

[GMO]

started a basic guide to IDA...

[GMO]

here is an early version of the joker guide, i still need to add more examples and fix my math, but you should get the general idea

[GMO]

reformatting the Doc, fixing the table of contents up
All the Bolds screwed it up

[Tommy24]

Stuff is looking good dude.

[GMO]

ok, adding more Television COde SHortcuts, and New Code Site will be Up!

[Tommy24]

Can wait for all the stuff to be released. Maybe it will slow down all the noobs quistions. lol

[GMO]

"%d, %d\n"

[Tommy24]

??? Nice reply lol.

[GMO]

how many do you have that has this label?

[KRISHNAMURTI]

This is shaping up nicely, I really appreciate all of your help and im sure alot of others do as well..

[rdchaldo3265]

Since you are the first one to post in this thread for over five years, I doubt very much if the other guys who posted here are ready to continue where they left off.

For cases like this you should open a new thread about your new issue instead, as the original topic of this thread has very little to do with your request. (Since your purpose is not to take part in making that ps2dis guide.)

Any serious game hacking project would belong in the Homebrew/Dev forum. And there you can just scroll down near the bottom of the page and use the "New Thread" button.

It's effect will be quite similar to that of the "New Reply" button inside a thread (which you already have used), with the difference that your post will be the first post in the new thread, and the title of that post will become the title of the thread as a whole. So it makes sense to use a good and meaningful title, so that others with similar interests are attracted to that thread.
