Once the console drops back to the browse menu, turn it off and plug your newly exploited memory card into your non-exploited console. If so, congratulations you have successfully softmodded your console! If you have opted for a multi-install as instructed in this guide, then the memory card can be used to execute the FreeMCBoot on any console that is not the latest release of the slimline console SCPHx.
If you are unable to go through the FreeHDBoot method which can be done without one, then your next course of action is to purchase a FreeMCBoot memory card. Unfortunately we do not provide such service yet , however the PS2 Reddit community has a contact that will do this for you with no labour charge.
Simply pay the fee for the memory card unit, and they will send you one with multi FreeMCBoot pre-installed. Details can be found in the sidebar on Reddit mobile users, click community information. You must have either of these: A hardmodded PS2 console had a chip installed to give it modded abilities.
You also need: A computer operating system does not matter. An 8mb Memory Card official 8mb is preferable, third party is a risk. You also need the following software all free : FreeMCBoot original. Know that during this process your memory card will be wiped, so you may want to make a backup of it on to another memory card before you begin this process. I have a pair of Logitech wireless controllers, which work great, but during this process they were a pain.
I have to say, this frustrated me to no end. Essentially these are the steps. When this screen appears, the legal PS2 game disc will stop spinning. When you do that, the PS1 disc will spin for a second and then stop spinning. Your screen will change to this:. Press X on your controller and the system should launch the main screen for uLaunch. I formatted a Staples branded flash drive as explained above and put all of the required files on it and the system refused to read it.
The light on the drive would just blink and the screen was black. I tried again with a PNY drive and it worked fine. After this screen comes up, press Circle on the controller to launch the file browser. ELF file and press Circle on it to launch it. Installation will begin and should take minutes to complete. Be patient. Press X to choose Ok. At this point you can power off your PS2 and remove the disc. Power it back on. The method above is one of the oldest methods to soft mod.
The down side is that you have to be perfect with your timing when swapping discs after the PlayStation 2 logo disappears. This video shows someone pulling the trick off. If you already have Agent Under Fire, you may want to go this route. At this point you can re-assemble your PS2. Keep in mind that the software that makes this work is installed on your memory card. You should label it as such. When you remove the card from the machine, it will act like a normal PS2 slim, as nothing on the console itself has been modified.
The console will still play retail games just fine, and you can use either the open space left on the Free McBoot memory card or another memory card inserted in to the second memory card slot to save games. Thank you Jason, this was the clearest guide I found on how to mod the PS2. Instead of booting to cogswap I booted to uLE and then I followed your guide successfully.
Thank you very much! What should I do? Great work! Does this work on model SCPH? I think that it was modified right away after it was bought. Hope you can help me, thanks! Your guide was a great help. I got it to work on my 2nd or 3rd try with that game. There was only one thing different about that game to the others.
I did a bit of digging around the internet to try and find more videos of people successfully pulling this off. First of all, thanks for putting this guide together! I just wanted to share something i found that another forum user somewhere said that I think helped sorry, forgot the source.
I dont fully understand the technical side behind all of this so I hope it makes sense:. According to this source, the boot file of the ps2 game that you use should have an LBA of around 1,, I checked all of the games that I had been trying and failing with, and they all had LBAs in the s or s. One of the games Killzone had an LBA of almost 3,,, but I couldnt get it to work either maybe too high?
I dont fully understand the technical terms behind doing all of this, so it may just have been coincidence. I hope it may help any one else trying to do this. Hii, i have sony playstation 2 slim silver SCPH so how can i moded like u show inside u did cover button for boot. Hello Jason,thanks for taking the time to make this guide and since its been a while since you made i doubt you are still active here right?
However if you see this i have a question. Thanks in advance. I can swap the legal disc to the clone disc and use it to play my game flawlessly my legal copy is quite scratched and freezes the game to load up more data.
The game also has the FRWL. Not even booting up the FRWL demo works! The only thing I find peculiar is that I can use the modded disc to run the game flawlessly, since the original disc is severely scratched and causes the game to buffer every minutes.
It will either not run at all or be too slow, depending on your built-in video card chip. It is not installing. My laptop is asking for GS plugin file and says there are no plugins. If you are running Windows 7 or later and a DirectXcompatible video card, then you can click the "GSdx10" section on the page. Otherwise, experiment with "GSdx unified" and "GSdx9".
You may need to install the latest video drivers for your video card and DirectX if you have not done so. Unrar the downloaded archive.
You will get a package of ZIP files. Unzip the latest version and you will get the missing plug-in DLL files.

The other solution is gaining administrative rights for your account and disabling UAC to see if it can help you. Click the Start button in the lower-left corner.
Type "User Account" and press "Enter". Click "Manage User Accounts", select your account, and change its membership to "Administrators" the step for doing that depend upon your being in a domain, in a group, etc. Accept the changes and go back to the "User Accounts" window. Click "Change User Account Control settings". In the new window, move the slider to the bottom "Never notify". Click "OK" to accept the changes. You do not need the "X" letter.
You need to make sure that you have a functional optical drive with a disc inside. Then, press the Windows and "E" keys to open File Explorer. Before this, you will see a letter. Replace "X" with that letter. Please note that if you have several optical drives, then you will need to choose the correct one with the inserted disc.
