[PS2-Emu] PCSX2 1.3.1 Updated! (Complete w/ BIOS, Tools & Patches) + BIOS Collection

[Zorlon]

Depends on the size of the flash drive

It's like asking how long a piece of string is

USB flash drives go into the TB range now around 1000GB that is alot of games plus the emulator

just one PS2 game it is ok?

Sonic Gems Collection because it was not released in North America. only in Europe and Japan

as stated depends on the size of the stick, they up to 1TB now so you could fit lots of games with ease onto one of those plus the emulator with all the plugins and bios

If you are emulating though you may as well just emulate the original systems instead of emulating PS2 that is emulating other systems

my PS2 is not modded

my PS2 is not modded

No one said it was or wasn't no one even mentioned the actual console only emulation

Saying that it's not exactly hard to mod though either

[MaslowK]

a moderator should have banned you for risking the site trust me

can this emulator fit in my USB flash drive?

Most likely, yes. When it comes to consoles that used discs, the emulator is always going to be much, much smaller than the games themselves. As others have mentioned, the number of games you'll be able to fit on one depends entirely on how big your flash drive is. Keep in mind that most PS2 games are around 4gb+ uncompressed, so divide the total GB capacity of the drive by about 4 (with some leeway) and you'll know roughly how many it can hold.

i should've assumed as much. i already know HDD space for computers is probably well above GB by now. alienware i got for my 18th birthday had 200GB iirc, this 2009 laptop has a max of 451GB, so my next computer will likely have well over double the space as this laptop.

I have 4 external USB drives all 2TB they are a few years old now and only use USB 2.0 though that is fast enough for my use, GB is so last year though a TB drive isn't that expensive either unless you go for an ultra slim or a USB 3.0 drive or a ultra fast drive but even those are dropping in price

Even my Xbox has a 750GB IDE drive in it and IDE went the way of the dinosaurs they just don't make them now

My first PC only had a 20MB HDD and half of that ended up being bad sectors so make that 10MB (it was a 8086 though )

hay ho. when i unpacked it i became a virus alarm. is it safe?

[Zorlon]

It's out of date anyway, though it is safe yes

Awesome, Thanks!

Thanks read some the Face palm comments and didn't see anything about it.
i noticed you mention widescreen support, is there any draw back to forcing widescreen like some N64 game where the camera becomes dislodged and such?
(if you force Banjo Tooie to widescreen that happens and yes i know Banjo Tooie has widescreen built in just an example)

[messiahgov]

I will try to update the whole package again, I just had no time the last months. Sorry for that...

@do a barrel roll
Normally, there should be widescreen patches for games that need them only. But to be true, I got them from the official forums, and never tried them myself. Logically, there should be only useful widescreen patches, I think/hope.

So if Banjo Tooie has build-in widescreen-support, then there shouldn't be any ws "cheat" at all I think. There instructions are like this:

Put the .pnach files in the "cheats_ws" folder in the PCSX2 directory.
Start PCSX2, go to System, and make sure "Enable Widescreen Patches" is checked.
You can enable the console to ensure that the emulator has found the patch.

Open PCSX2 > Config > Emulation Settings.
Go to GS Window, Aspect Ratio, and ensure "Widescreen (16:9)" is selected.

If everything fails, I mean when the ws hack gets activated and the picture sucks, just use the build-in one of the game or try to force widescreen through "System > Emulation settings > GS window", without any patch. ^^
