The Open PS2 Loader CFG Database Project Goal. This is a collection of CFG files for use with Open PS2 Loader. Originally based on Veritas83's CFG repository, this database has been enriched with game information from ScreenScraper.fr, using a rather hacky script that can be found in the scripts folder of this repository. The original CFG files already contained game titles and, in some. I assume you installed opl. Which way would you prefer loading isos? From usb flash disk / hdd (not recommended, usb 1.1 slower than ps2's dvd reader), ide harddrive if you have fat ps2 (mine is slim so I don't know how to setup this way) or loading over ethernet (loading isos from your pc via ethernet, the way I use). OPL then can be posted right on the spot of the change and staff can review it with trainer and sign. To help you understand how to create OPLs, please visit our One Point Lesson Directory, where you will find several examples of OPLs.

Open PS2 Loader (OPL) is a 100% Open source game and application loader for the PS2 and PS3 units. It now supports *.ISO images on HDD, Ethernet SMB shares, and USB while also maintaining compatibility with USB Advance/Extreme format. It's now the most compatible homebrew loader and it should work without ps2load or change DNASXXX.IMG tricks.

How to use
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

OPL uses the same directory tree structure across HDD, SMB, and USB modes ...

• --- 'CD' (for games on CD media - i.e. blue-bottom discs)
• --- 'DVD (for DVD5 images; DVD9 images on USB must be split)
• --- 'VMC' (for 8MB Virtual Memory Card images)
• --- 'CFG' (for saving per-game configuation files)
• --- 'ART' (for box and disc art images)
• --- 'THM' (for themes support)

---
USB
---
Game files on USB must be perfectly defragmented either file by file or by whole drive, and Dual Layer DVD9 images must be split to avoid the 4GB limitations of the FAT32 file system. We recommend Power Defragmenter for best defragging results, and our own comman line tool iso2usbld to convert or split games into USB Advance/Extreme format ...

Other utilities are: USBUtil 2.0, USB Extreme installer or USB Insane.

---
SMB
---
For loading games by SMB protocol you need to share a folder (ex: PS2SMB) on the host machine or NAS device and make sure that it has full read and write permissions. USB Advance/Extreme format is optional - *.ISO images are supported using the folder structure above with the added bonus that DVD9 images don't have to be split if your SMB device uses the NTFS or EXT3/4 file system.

----
HDD
----
For PS2, 48-bit LBA internal HDDs up to 1TB are supported. They have to be formatted with either WINHIIP or uLaunch. From there, use uLaunch to make a partition (rec. minumum of 2GB) named 'OPL'. If OPL detects this partition at start up, it'll automatically create the above directory structure. Use it to migrate ART, THEMES, CFGs, VMCs, etc. off your MC or USB stick to the internal HDD and free up space on those devices.

To launch OPL, you can use any of the existing methods for loading an executable elf.

On PS3, you need an original SwapMagic 3.6+ or 3.8 disc (at the moment there aren't any other options). The steps for loading OPL on a PS3 are:

1. Rename OPNPS2LD.ELF to SMBOOT0.ELF
2. Make a folder in root of USB device called SWAPMAGIC and copy SMBOOT0.ELF to it.
3. Launch SwapMagic in PS3 and press UP+L1 then Open PS2 Loader should start.
There are 4 forms for launching elfs in SwapMagic.

SMBOOT0.ELF = UP + L1
SMBOOT1.ELF = UP + L2
SMBOOT2.ELF = UP + R1
SMBOOT3.ELF = UP + R2
