Thread: Cobra USB Open PS2 Loader

Is This True Or Not??

[h=Open PS2 Loader v0.8 ISO released for non-backwards compatible PS3 consoles — tutorial available]1[/h]

Forum member coveman from tortuga-cove has released Open PS2 Loader v0.8 ISO for non-backwards compatible PS3 consoles. For those unfamiliar with Open PS2 Loader (OPL), it’s a PS2 ISO loader originally developed for the PS2 (remember Free McBoot?).

Keep in mind, in order to boot the Open PS2 Loader ISO, you’ll need the Cobra USB device. What luck! We’re giving away 5 Cobra USB devices this month!

coveman says:

I created an “Open PS2 Loader” ISO file, so you can just load it from Cobra Manager or multiMAN.

Features:
You don’t need SWAP MAGIC
You don’t need any optical disc at all in your PS3
Works on non-backwards compatible PS3 (fat and slim)


Requirements for tutorial:

• Jailbroken PS3
• Cobra USB device
• Cobra USB custom firmware v3.55 installed on PS3
• USB flash drive
• External USB hard drive
• USBUtil v2.00 (see download below)
• Open PS2 Loader v0.8 ISO (see download below)
• ESR disc patcher GUI v0.24a (see download below)

Tutorial:

1. Extract the Open PS2 Loader (ISO).rar file
2. Transfer Open PS2 Loader.ISO to /dev_hdd0/PS2ISO/ found on your internal PS3 HDD
3. Using Windows XP/Vista/7, format external USB hard drive as FAT 32.
4. Use ESR disc patcher GUI app to patch your PS2 ISO
5. Use USBUtil to transfer your patched PS2 ISO to your USB hard drive (step #3 must be completed)
6. Plug in external USB hard drive to PS3 and Cobra USB device
7. Start PS3 Open PS2 Loader from Cobra Manager or multiMAN Cobra Manager
   
   1. Note: Cobra Manager needs Cobra USB custom firmware

i tried the iso, but it wont boot on my non bc 160gb. it just played the ps2 gameboot sound then black screened

the same thing happened to me. the ps2 reset and cobra got stuck in an endless loop. I had to hard reset the system to turn it off.

already posted in news....and this is NOT a ps3 app. it is a ps2 app that runs with cobra.

No it is a PS3 app, it runs on the PS3 making it a PS3 app, it may run PS2 games but that does not stop it from being an PS3 app, Lightyear wrong again.

no its a ps2 app thats been around for years that was just realized to work on a ps3 with the cobra

First google result for "usb Open ps2 loader" brings up this from 2009
Source 1: Open PS2 Loader Project - v0.8

This was a preexisting app that was for ps2 someone just stumbled upon working with a cobra on a ps3. (why was the first thread about this here closed by a mod if it was new?)

Source 2: Coveman releases 'Open PS2 Loader' as ISO for Cobra USB (note it was opened and closed within a day or so)

gotta love illiterate trolls. It works on a ps3. its a ps2 app.

ummm...actually, it is NOT made to run on ps3. it is made to run as if it is a ps2 iso...which is EXACTLY what it is...this is why you need cobra to run it. It's a ps2 iso lol ps3 can't read ps2 isos....only cobra can

you are wrong, and you're making accusations with absolutely no evidence to back it up.

If it's a ps3 app then why can pcsx2 run it?? If it's a ps3 app, why is it in iso format? ps3 apps are in pkg format....anyone with a brain can tell you that

next time you want to disprove someone, get some evidence, because I'm, about to make you look completely stupid.....ready?? here it comes....





....like I've already said...it's a ps2 app.
