Free McBoot Configurator

[JNABK]

With the Skip Disc option, you can choose not to have the disc autoboot with it set to ON, but if its set to OFF, it autoboots a disc anyway, so its not a required option for AutoBoot Disc, since it doesnt really make much difference in 'autobooting' anyway.


Yes in our tests, Skip Disc works just fine..

[Mozgus]

Hmm, it sure doesn't have any effect for me.

[JNABK]

The Skip Disc option isnt fixed in the current release, so you'll have to wait for the next release for it.

About the problem with display:

My console is PAL. NTSC has less vertical space, I didn't even think about it.

Removing Free McBoot Settings line is OK, I only added that because the first configurator was directly coded withing ule.

About autoboot disc:

You are going way too fast, as well as jimmi. You are forgotting that not all of us want to always use hacked osdsys. Removing autoboot option is forcing me to use the hacked osdsys to boot my discs.

In my opinion it is a very useful option, it has been disabled on newest beta, but I hope it won't be on the next one.

BTW the skip disc makes the ps2 go to the inner browser whenever it tries to boot the disc (but you can launch it from there). It's not what I thought it would be, but of course I can't complain about their work, they're doing their best and I thank them.

In my tests, with the OSD Hack set to OFF, this still auto boots a disc if the Skip Disc option is OFF, so it shouldnt make any differences there.

Yep, i noticed that too and mentioned it to jimmi, so i dont know if its just a bug or not yet.

It does make the difference if you don't have set any launcher option to OSDSYS (i.e. straight boot to ule unless disc in drive)

[JNABK]

Well, if there is no disc in the drive either way, it wouldnt matter if there is an autoboot option set to on/off.

Ok no problem I will just uncomment AutoBoot_Disc
But Maybe we should just rename (my fault) its text to "Ps2 Game Fastboot" in the configurator to avoid confusing people.

For the skip disc, maybe we can make it not go to inner menu, but I tought that when user insert a disk, it's to launch it (most of the time)...

[Neme]

Does it still go to inner menu with the newest update though? I expected it to completely ignore any disc including invalid ones.

[jimmikaelkael]

Yeah it's still bringing them to inner menu when inserting a disc, But I was not seeing it as a bug...
But the problem with "DVD player not configured" message is fixed.

We still too have the Ps2 DVD retail game freezing after Ps2 logo when Skip Disc Boot is ON on older ps2... I plan to overwrite ps2 dvd function pointer to make it FastBoot and see if it's working this way or not.
