    Yes, you can use RadHostClient copying the games throught ethernet with the router connected
    to the PS2, is a lot more slow than PFSshell but is the only alternative if you like try it.

    Thank you, i'm glad you liked it, and yes thank you also to gledson999.

    If anyone likes it in their own language let me know here.

    I'm not sure now if is possible create a partition with PFSshell, but use uLaunchELF with
    the HDDManager tool for make that, is the most fast and easy way that all the people uses.

    Best regards.

    Update:

    Modificações na lista:

    --ALUNDRA_2_A_NEW_LEGEND_BEGINS (SLUS_010.17), está perfeito;
    --HARRY_POTTER_AND_THE_CHAMBER_OF_SECRETS (SLUS_015.03) , está perfeito.

    Obs: Eu testei todos os jogos com algum tipo de problema na minha lista, com o programa “WIP6 Beta 5”, os resultados foram os mesmos do “WIP2”, mas, eu modifiquei a informação “WIP2”, para “WIP6 Beta 5”.

    Modificações no “#toolbox_Português.exe”:

    --Gera o arquivo “VMCDIR.TXT”, para jogos com várias partes, desde que, exista a escrita “CD1”, “CD2”... nos jogos;
    --Cria pastas POPS0, POPS1, POPS2... para os jogos;
    --Ele também vai procurar todas as pastas POPS0, POPS1, POPS2... até POPS9, para construir o arquivo “conf_apps.cfg”. (o “#conf_apps.bat”, faz a mesma coisa).

    Os arquivos “PFS_WRAP.BIN” e “POPSTARTER.ELF” dentro dos programas, são os mais novos, (PFS_WRAP.BIN -> 3KB) e (POPSTARTER.ELF -> WIP6 Beta 5).

    Detalhe: Sempre vai ser o mesmo link, eu descobri, que, se você criar uma pasta no servidor MEGA, e compartilhar o link da pasta, você pode mudar os arquivos dentro da pasta, que o link sempre vai ser o mesmo.

    Note: I tested every game with some kind of problem on my list, with “WIP6 Beta 5” program, the results were the same as “WIP2”, but, I modified the “WIP2” information, to “WIP6 Beta 5”.

    Changes in "#toolbox_English (Translated by Chrome).exe":

    --Gera The file “VMCDIR.TXT”, for the games with various parts, provided, exist the writing “CD1”, “CD2”... in games;
    --Create folders POPS0, POPS1, POPS2... for the games;
    --He will also search all folders POPS0, POPS1, POPS2... until POPS9, to build the "conf_apps.cfg" file. (the "#conf_apps (Translated by Chrome).bat", does the same thing).

    The files “PFS_WRAP.BIN” and “POPSTARTER.ELF” in programs, are the newest, (PFS_WRAP.BIN -> 3KB) and (POPSTARTER.ELF -> WIP6 Beta 5).

    Detail: There will always be the same link, I discovered, that, if you create a folder on MEGA server, and share the link of the folder, you can change the files within the folder, the link will always be the same.

    Is there a way to automatically start Ulaunch straight to the __.POPS/ folder? Also, would I be able to swap out the X with O? Another stupid question, I've tried streaming the ps1 games through Component, but once the game starts playing, my roxio game capture no longer works with it. Is there a way to force component signal with ps1 games?

    I can not regist a new account in PS2HOME forum, so I can only post my test result and suggestion here.
    The new USBHDFSD.IRX driver is not stable, for me, POPSTARTER (20150728, beta 7) runs terribly via USB stick.
    Audio and FMV stuttering problems are too severe.
    Can you downgrade USBHDFSD.IRX to the WIP 05 version? I don't think PS3 users need POPS more greatly than PS2 users since they have $ony's PS3-specific PS emulator.

    @craftierspace.

    Bonsoir.

    Je pense que votre problème viens de votre configuration PC. Vous ne l'avez pas indiquée. Donnez-nous votre configuration de système PC (XP, Vista, Win7, Win8, Win8.1) et peut être nous pourrons vous répondre plus aisément.

    Moi même, j'utilise un système peu connu qui me permet de travailler avec une "machine virtuelle XP-PRO-SP3" sous système MAC OsX.5.8 Leopard. Cela fonctionne très bien chez moi.

    Bonne soirée.

    In English :

    Good evening.

    I think your problem just your PC configuration. You have not specified. Give us your PC system configuration (XP, Vista, Win7, Win8, Win8.1) and may be we can respond more easily.

    Myself, I use a little known system that allows me to work with a "virtual machine XP-PRO-SP3" MAC OsX.5.8 Leopard system. This works very well for me.

    Good night.

    Weird problems yep... The Grand Theft Auto.cue you posted is correct and should be parsed by ToolBox without a crash.
    Download this ToolBox zip. Unzip the "ToolBox" folder to the root of your HDD. Drop your cue file to BULK_CUE2POPS.

    Normally you should see something like that for several seconds :
    [​IMG]
    It closes after the conversion is completed. The created VCD can be found alongside the BIN and CUE files. If there's something wrong with your CUE, the command line or the file path, ToolBox is supposed to print an error message then "Press any key to continue...".

    @krHACKen i need a little help from the steps after having your games converted to a VCD. OK so right now i have USB with a folder named Pops on it and in the folder i have the following:
    Grand Theft Auto.VCD
    Grand Theft Auto 2.VCD
    PFS_WRAP.BIN
    POPS.PAK
    POPSTARTER.ELF

    what do i do next?

    Edit: Nevermind I got it to work. Again Thank you @krHACKen

    Make a copy of POPSTARTER.ELF.
    Rename POPSTARTER.ELF to XX.Grand Theft Auto.elf
    Rename the copy of POPSTARTER.ELF to XX.Grand Theft Auto 2.elf

    Launching XX.Grand Theft Auto.elf will play Grand Theft Auto.VCD
    Launching XX.Grand Theft Auto 2.elf will play Grand Theft Auto 2.VCD


    There is a way to run the VCDs directly from the uLaunchELF file browser, without the need to copy and rename POPSTARTER.ELF :
    Leave POPSTARTER.ELF into the POPS folder of your USB drive, do not rename it.
    Run the uLaunchELF ELF that is provided with POPStarter (Misc Stuff\uLE_kHn_20150602\PACKED_BOOT.ELF).
    Select a VCD file by pressing the circle button, the game will run.


    Also make sure your USB device is defragmented.

    EDIT : Okay. No problem :) . Have fun.

    Oh yeah also one more thing @krHACKen what's the maximum size of a USB a PS2 can handle I'm planning on using 16 if it can, that would be great but if it can go higher that would be awesome.
