Introduction
Open up PS2 Loader (OPL) is a 100% Open source game and application loader for the PS2 and PS3 units. It supports three categories of devices: USB mass storage devices, SMB shares and the PlayStation ii HDD unit. USB devices and SMB shares support USBExtreme and *.ISO formats while PS2 HDD supports HDLoader format. It's now the well-nigh compatible homebrew loader.
OPL developed continuously - anyone can contribute improvements to the project due to its open-source nature.

Release types
Open PS2 Loader bundle included several types of the same OPL version. These types come with more or fewer features included.
| Type (tin be a combination) | Description |
|---|---|
Release | Regular OPL release with GSM, IGS, PADEMU, VMC, PS2RD Cheat Engine & Parental Controls. |
DTL_T10000 | OPL for TOOLs (DevKit PS2) |
IGS | OPL with InGame Screenshot feature. |
PADEMU | OPL with Pad Emulation for DS3 & DS4. |

How to use
OPL uses the following directory tree construction across HDD, SMB, and USB modes:
| Folder | Description | Modes |
|---|---|---|
CD | for games on CD media - i.e. blue-bottom discs | USB and SMB |
DVD | for DVD5 and DVD9 images if using the NTFS file organisation on USB or SMB; DVD9 images must be split and placed into the device root if using the FAT32 file organization on USB or SMB | USB and SMB |
VMC | for Virtual Retention Card images - from 8MB upward to 64MB | all |
CFG | for saving per-game configuration files | all |
ART | for game art images | all |
THM | for themes support | all |
LNG | for translation back up | all |
CHT | for cheats files | all |
OPL will automatically create the in a higher place directory construction the start time you launch it and enable your favorite device.
For HDD users, OPL will read hdd0:__common/OPL/conf_hdd.cfg for the config entry "hdd_partition" to utilise as your OPL division. If not found a config file, a 128Mb +OPL partition will be created. Y'all can edit the config if y'all wish to use/create a different partition. All partitions created past OPL volition be 128Mb (information technology is not recommended to enlarge partitions as it will break LBAs, instead remove and recreate manually with uLaunchELF at a larger size if needed).
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 do not recommend using any programs. The best way for defragmenting - copy all files to pc, format USB, copy all files back. Repeat it in one case you faced defragmenting trouble again.
You also need a PC programme to convert or split games into USB Advance/Farthermost format, such as USBUtil 2.0.
SMB
For loading games past SMB protocol, y'all demand to share a folder (ex: PS2SMB) on the host car or NAS device and make certain that it has full read and write permissions. USB Advance/Extreme format is optional - *.ISO images are supported using the binder structure above with the bonus that DVD9 images don't have to be split if your SMB device uses the NTFS or EXT3/iv file arrangement.
HDD
For PS2, 48-scrap LBA internal HDDs up to 2TB are supported. HDD should be formatted with the APA sectionalisation scheme. OPL volition create the +OPL partition on the HDD. To avoid this, yous can create a text file at the location hdd0:__common:pfs:OPL/conf_hdd.txt that contains the preferred partition proper name (for example __common).
NBD Server
A NBD server replaced HDL server. NBD is formally documented and developed as a collaborative open up standard. The current implementation of the server is based on lwNBD, go there to contribute. The main advantage of using NBD is that the client will simulate a similar interface to the OS as if the device was plugged directly into your automobile. All your favorite software that worked with the device directly connected to your car, will work with the device accessible through the network.
Currently, only consign for HDD is supported by the server. You can use hdl-dump, pfs-shell, or fifty-fifty directly edit deejay in some hex editor. Instance, how to install HDL game to the HDD: Connect with your choosen client, and then hdl_dump inject_dvd ps2/nbd "Test Game" ./Examination.ISO and when yous're done, disconnect the client.
And then you lot need a NBD customer. Here nosotros listing some known uniform clients and how to use them.
nbd-client
Supported: Linux, Windows with WSL and custom kernel
nbd-customer requires nbd kernel support. If it isn't loaded, sudo modprobe nbd will exercise.
list available consign:
nbd-client -l 192.168.1.45 connect:
nbd-client 192.168.1.45 /dev/nbd1 disconnect:
You'll more often than not demand sudo to run this commands in root or add your user to the right group usually "disk".
nbdfuse
Supported: Linux, Windows with WSL2
listing available export:
nbdinfo --listing nbd://192.168.1.45 connect:
mkdir ps2 nbdfuse ps2/ nbd://192.168.i.45 & disconnect:
wnbd
Supported: Windows
WNBD client. Install, reboot, open up elevated (with Administrator rights) PowerShell
connect:
wnbd-client.exe map hdd0 192.168.1.22 disconnect:
wnbd-customer.exe unmap hdd0 Mac Bone
Not supported.
PS3 BC
Currently, supported only PS3 Astern Compatible (BC) versions. So only COK-001 and COK-002/COK-002W boards are supported. USB, SMB, HDD modes are supported.
To run OPL, you need an entry point for running PS2 titles. You can utilise everything (Swapmagic PS2, for case), but custom firmware with the latest Cobra is preferred. Annotation: only CFW supports HDD mode.
Some notes for DEVS
Open PS2 Loader needs the latest PS2SDK
