How to make an iso to play on pcx2 ?

[XAlFias]

So , I have this PS2 version of "Metal Gear Solid 3 : Snake Eyes (PAL)" , and I learned that I have to Make an Iso of it to be able to play on PCSX2 . I made an Iso using ImgBurn , But when I tried to Boot , an error pops up saying "file not found path: Iso file system" Am i doing something wrong ? My pcsx2 is perfectly configured , and I played many other games on it .


In the image you can see that the files are in a disk . I copied them in my HD and made one single Iso out of them .

Please help.....

Did you configure the CDVD to point to ISO instead of Plugin?

SOLDIERSeeD is trying to help you run the game direct from your DVD drive

Why you would want to emulate a system if you own it I don't know, maybe the novelty of it, personly I hacked my PS2 to run backups instead, but thats a subject for another section not this one

But if you realy want to make a disc image the first thing you done was the wrong thing, but I will do a very quick guide for you

... To make an iso image file

0 download and install imgburn if you dont already have it

1 inset disc into DVD drive of ya PC
2 run ImgBurn
3 select Create Image from disc
4 Destination hit the spy glass on a folder icon and pick a destination and file name
5 Hit the big icon of a disc and an arrow pointing to a piece of paper with a disc on it
6 Wait for it to complete... done

Tried that , an iso was made without any error , but still when i try to boot , error pops up saying "file not found path: Iso file system" ........

Have you checked to see if the game is even compatible with the emulator (P.S. I don't emulate PS2 systems as I own a PS2, with a software mod installed to my memcard)

LOL I'm more like to emulate other systems on my PS2

Hmm, as a last resort, how about downloading the iso from the main site instead of trying to run the self-ripped image? I know that MGS 3 is playable on PCSX2 and the compatibility list says likewise.

Here's the link:http://www.emuparadise.me/Sony_Plays...(En,Fr)/153806

Or if the PAL version doesn't work, the NTSC-U version:http://www.emuparadise.me/Sony_Plays...r_(USA)/150681

Why won't the PAL version work ?

The emulator might not be compatible with all versions of any given game, so sometimes PAL or NTSC can have separate issues.

It's strange that it's saying file not found, try as suggested but download any PS2 game (even a small one) just to test to see if you can load any iso at all. If you cannot load any iso files, then it could be the Iso loader plugin, pcsx2 comes with a few, maybe you messed with it and changed the default plugin.

edit\ nvm, just read that you are running GoW just fine, must be some a problem either with how you made the iso or the version of the game, I guess just download mgs3 and see.

I've managed to get my emulator to work completely, except for one thing: Only the left half of the screen works. Does anyone know how to fix that?
