Playstation 2 External Storage Device games Loader (PS2ESDL)

[SP193]

Ok guys it seems i found out finally, it was a fragmentation problem, how i solved it:

1- Extracted the ISO in a folder with Apache
2- Defragmented in Folder mode (very important) with autologics disk defrag (see in: Action > advanced > defrag folder)
3- Made a new iso with imgburn (default options)
4- Copied to the usb hdd with usbutil v2.0

Now it seems to work fine with OPL, no special mode used so far (although the videos intros are slowed down somewhat)

Try using PS2ESDL instead. OPL is weak with video streaming, especially across USB devices.

Hi, SP193

I have everything done in your guides but game loads and nothings happens, the game is not patched even with modes it doesn't launch and it work on pc emulators. (Kingdom heart 2)

It should work can you see the USB device with uLE if so then check for fragmentation on USB device if fragmented defragement it

[MORGON]

Already done before I posted my problem!
Maybe is PS2ESDL using some datas from Free Mcboot, like the ESR files? Still black Screen here

[RandQalan]

works fine for me and I use FMCB myself
Maybe you don't have a good rip of Game or maybe something wrong with USB device hook to pc run fix on usb device
If all else fails try OPL it can run it too I know

So I close my question.

It's the usb stick from san disk

It doesn't work on sandisk usb sticks. Beware

So I have to use another one thanks anyway

Well that may still work but you have to remove the u3 software and make sure you use the right removal tool for the job

is there any way to convert .PDI games back to iso, or at least to OPL format, and then into iso?

There is no 'OPL' format. OPL supports only the USBExtreme format and normal ISO9660 disc images (.iso files). PS2ESDL supports all that, plus it's own format.

There is currently no way to convert a game from the PS2ESDL format to the USBExtreme format, and neither is there a way to reclaim your games as .iso files. It was a feature that was meant to be implemented, but never was.

Actually, it's just a matter of rejoining the parts and resplitting them into 1.00GB parts. There is no secret format to any of these game formats, other than how the list of games is recorded.

PS2DCDMP needs to be rewritten for readability and maintainability, which I had completed partially when I used PS2DCDMP in another project. It'll probably have that missing feature added next.

PS2ESDL itself has got some fixes that it badly needs (Includes performance enhancements)... but I can't ensure that the new EE core is faultless, which is why v0.830 has been delayed until today.

I'm now working full-time daily, so I have nearly no time for even myself. My work on the SMAP driver has been taking the time I've got, so everything else has been frozen.

SP193 use Dropbox instead. It's super easy. Upload files to your public folder on it. It is as easy to install as it is easy to install Utorrent for example, except it's private and you choose who you give your links to, and if you post the link in a forum it can be used like mediafire and anyone who clicks the link can download the file.
