when u transfer games from the pc to the ps2 using that vaplink or something like that ..does the ps2 have to be just on, or in the browser menu, or in the hd loader menu?

i was looking at winhiip v1.63 and it looks like a great piece of software. and i just seen that i just answered my question from earlier on...haha..damn im good...lol. but as i was reading the changelog for v1.63 it says that it has the option to disable the 128Gb limit. does this mean that i can put a 250Gb on my ps2 and use almost all of the capacity? and it aslo talks about use the 48 bit LBA option if u have a patched version on ur HDL. how in the heck do u patch the HDL? and why would u patch it?

hmm.. I know this is quite old but thought it was worth replying since no one else did..

Yes you can patch it to destroy the 137gb limit. So you cud have a 250gb hdd if you wanted to.

Yes it is to do with the 48 bit.

Hope this helps you, and anyone else

well i already patched the file and it made an outfile.elf...now my question is how do repack it and burn my hd loader cd with the newly patched file?

[H|LLJD00]

Yeh think so.

i didnt ask if this process was possible or if i can be done....lol..i asked (sense i already patched the file to exceed the 137Gb limit) how do i go about repacking my hd loader files so that i can burn it to a cd?..

You dont need to pack it. You would only need to pack it if you wanted to boot HDL from your memory card and were concened with the size of the HDL elf taking up too much room on your memory card.

You can simply take your patched HDL elf and create a .cnf file that points to the patched elf file you created then load them both in CDGENPS2 and creat a bin/cue of them both, then simply burn the bin/cue you created with your favorite CD burning app.

I have attached a SYSTEM.txt file. I changed the format to .txt so I could attach it here. But you can view what the SYSTEM.CNF file looks like in note pad. Or you can simply take the SYSTEM.txt file I attached and rename it to SYSTEM.CNF the 2 files are case sensitive I believe, so if you use this .CNF file make sure you use all caps and your OUTFILE.ELF is also all in caps. Then download CDGENPS2 create your bin/cue and your ready to go.

If you have the matrix infinity in your PS2 you can FTP to your PS2 with ExecFTPs and simply install your HDL elf to mc0:BOOT/BOOT.ELF on your memory card. You will of course need to rename your OUTFILE.ELF to BOOT.ELF , then you can boot to the HDLoader by simply holding R1 on game pad 1 and it will boot the HDL elf first thing, even before the PS2's own browser, with no need for a disc in your PS2 at all!!!!!

I have been seeing a lot of people asking how to do this crap.... hopefully this will clear it up.....
