so is this better than opl.0.8
Im trying to get the PS2DCMP-Win working, but I fail everytime. :facepalm:
I would like to install a game on a usb thumb from a disk image file
but i get this message : "unable to create disk image file on target drive".
Can I have some help?
Thanks.
Have you tried running PS2DCDMP with administrator privileges (Right click on ps2dcdmp-win.exe and select "Run as Administrator")?Quote:

Please check to be sure that you selected the right drive to install the game on, and that you have enough free disk space.
I'm running Win7 x32.
Yeah of course, I checked that. Im using a cruzer blade sandisk 16Go, with 12Go space free.
Btw, am I supposed to set something next to the "DNAS Keys" and "Other option" in the GUI?

Edit : my bad, problem solved : I just mispelt the PS2ESDL folder name on my usb thumb. :facepalm: A bit ashamed.
Sorry for the inconvenience, and thanks for your help (and of course for this loader ;)
Hey, congratulations on getting it working! :DQuote:

Hi. Unfortunately, this is currently not possible with the current tools at the moment, but I'm currently working on a new PS2DCDMP utility that will support a scan/repair feature. It is a near-total rewrite of the entire tool, as my coding standards have changed a lot since the initial version in 2010 (And the earlier prototypes in 2009).Quote:

If you really cannot wait for that, you could try to rebuild your game list by hand using these structures, which was what I used to advice users who have gotten into the same situation as you did:
If you opt to rebuild the game list by yourself, the file simply comprises of the struct PS2ESDLGameListHeader header, followed by all the game list entries (struct PS2ESDLGameEntry).Code:/* PS2ESDL Disc Image format version 1.22 */
struct PS2ESDLGameEntry{
char title[80]; /* Title of the game that will be displayed. */
unsigned char disctype; /* Currently whether it's a PS2DVD or PS2CD */
unsigned char flags; /* Optional flags for PS2ESDL to use. */
unsigned char cache_sz; /* Read buffer size in 2048-byte sectors */
unsigned char ELF_fname[11]; /* Name of main ELF on the game's disc. e.g.: SLXX_999.99 */
unsigned int crc32; /* Checksum of the entire game. */
unsigned char cdvd_dnas_key[5]; /* DNAS disc key */
};
#define PS2ESDL_VERSION 0x122
struct PS2ESDLGameListHeader{
unsigned char signature[4]; /* "PDI" + a padding field (A 0x00 byte). */
unsigned short int version;
};
It's technical, I know. But that's the only way to get it done without tools. :/
thanks SP193!!! i have absolutely no problem waiting for the new utility to be release. your work is amazing and the PS2DCDMP utility is really easy and helpful when i need to install my games!
