==Game CONFIG commands (notepad and worklog)==
All info here related with commands needs to be moved to frontpage at some point

===ps2_netemu command 0x1===
There are some additional internal patches using CONFIG cmd id 0x01, using subs not available in 0x3B list
 condition: 0xBBB5F800, 0x3B949C00, 0x42133A90
 setting: 
   0x18E1F0, sub_4670C (4.70)
   0x348EC8, sub_44338 (4.70)
 
 in id0x01, function id 0x18 
 condition:  [ 0x20183F04 (+200000000 base) ] == 0x0C060F2C
 setting:
   stores 0 in address 0x20183F04, 0x20183F34, 0x20183F3C - with 200000000 base
   0x183F0C, sub_46334 (4.70)
   0x183F3C, sub_45DA4 (4.70)
   0x183D74, sub_47B50 (4.70)

====Function Mapping====
ps2_netemu.self contains a table (with entry_length=8 and entry_number=variable) where are listed the function offsets used by config command 0x01

This table is used to assign a funct_id to a funct_offset. The funct_id is given by the position of the entry in the table, so the first entry in the table is funct_id=0x00, second entry is funct_id=0x01 and so on

The purpose of this table is to be able use the same funct_id values in the external CONFIG files for netemu, this way even if the func_offset changes in between versions (internally inside the ps2_netemu.self file structure) the funct_id will be the same. The other ps2 emulator types doesnt have this table (doesnt needs it because doesnt uses external CONFIG files)


*funct_offset_table location by ps2_netemu versions:
**Table v1 (the table contains the same data)
***Firmware:370-374 offset:0x897ED8 length:0x1C8
**Table v2 (the table contains the same data)
***Firmware:400-401 offset:0x8970E8 length:0x1C8
**Table v3 (the table contains the same data)
***Firmware:410-411 offset:0x8971E8 length:0x1C8
***Firmware:420-425 offset:0x8972F8 length:0x1C8
**Table v4
***Firmwares 4.30 up to 4.76 was not tested (if someone wants to add this info do it here)
**Table vX (latest)
***Firmware:478-488 offset:0x8063f8 length:0x1E0

===ps2_netemu command 0x5===
This command seems to be disabled in netemu, but is used in gxemu with ID 0x4

*There are several games that uses it in his config data hardcoded inside ps2_gxemu.self such:
**SLES-51823 | 1 | cmd: 0x4 Hunter: The Reckoning Wayward
**SLES-54135 | 1 | cmd: 0x4 Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories
**SLES-54136 | 1 | cmd: 0x4 Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories
**SLES-54622 | 1 | cmd: 0x4 Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories
**SLES-54623 | 1 | cmd: 0x4 Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories
**SLPM-65340 | 1 | cmd: 0x4 Shinseiki Evangelion: Ayanami Ikusei Keikaku with Asuka Hokan Keikaku
**SLPM-66275 | 1 | cmd: 0x4 Onimusha : Dawn of Dreams
**SLUS-20001 | 1 | cmd: 0x4 Tekken Tag Tournament
**SLUS-21423 | 1 | cmd: 0x4 Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories
**SLUS-21590 | 1 | cmd: 0x4 Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories

===ps2_netemu command 0x0B===
There is a lot of misunderstanding about that command.

Offset seems to be dependent on read mode, is not about what media we use. This is dependent how game read data, more precisely how game read that one sector we want to patch. 

PCSX2 "CDVD reads" logs can help here:

'''CDRead requested block size (CD disc):'''
*2048 = Offset + 0x18 (skip 12 sync bytes, 4 of header, and 8 of subheader)
*2328 = Offset + 0x18 (skip 12 sync bytes, 4 of header, and 8 of subheader)
*2340 = Offset + 0x0C (skip only 12 bytes of sync data)

'''DVDRead requested block size (DVD Disc):'''
*2064 = Offset match, but only until the 349th sector. Otherwise is offset - 0x0C because that read mode see data as ID DATA (4) + ID DATA EDC (2) + Reserved bytes (6) + 2048 data + EDC (4). Why there is some weirdness that about first sectors, no idea. Maybe it is something common for DVD discs that i'm not aware off. 

"Offset + XX" for CD assume that you use Isobuster RAW mode. "Offset + XX" for DVD assume that you use Isobuster NON RAW mode (ISO can't store all data, so is missing ID/Resv bytes too.<br>
Keep in mind there is a bug in pcsx2 where fastboot "force" 2048 CD read on DVD disc for executable. That one will match 2064 read for us.

* You are very right. I was not aware about different read modes you can specify in the sceCdRead command. That makes sense and that explains that Freekstyle issue. Regarding the whole offset misunderstanding, I know it could be confusing sometimes when you open the mounted file system through the HxD for example (only data bytes are seen). It is important to load the image file in the hex editor directly (or use the "Load image file" in HxD), or check the RAW box in the Isobuster's sector viewer.<br> When it comes to the DVD discs, I know the offset correction is somehow related to the DVD RAW 2064 bytes per sector mode. But I am not sure if it is not applied until the 349th sector precisely - it is what I noticed by looking into the Psychonauts and Street Racing Syndicate configs. The latter has got the patch data applied to the 349th sector without the 0xC correction at all. It is the farthest example I have found.--[[User:Agrippa|Agrippa]] ([[User talk:Agrippa|talk]]) 14:47, 20 February 2022 (UTC)

===Getting Playstation 2 Software Emulator working===

Method (on Firmware 3.55, without! Cobra-USB Dongle or Downgrade) for all consoles (fat & slim).

 1. Replace following files on your consoles /dev_flash/
    with the ones included in this archive
    p3dwik-ps2compatfiles.rar
 2. Get into Factory Service Mode (FSM Tool/Dongle)
 3. Insert your Original PS2 Game Disc
 4. It will run.

Note: Backups wont work. You're getting the compatibility of the 2.60 software emulator with all of its bugs.

Download: [http://www.sendspace.com/file/bm9z9v p3dwik-ps2compatfiles.rar]<br>

http://www.multi...upload.com/YCZ63Y6TQ5 boot_ps2.pkg (69.17 KB) <br />

any chance of having this package resigned for 4.21 cfw? might be useful to see if it'll boot ps2_netemu.self LPAR.

(can boot ps2lpar, but also petitboot if otheros installed! 50:50 chance)

[http://rghost.net/42586725 boot_ps2 4.xx eboots.zip (153 KB)] <br /> installing 3.55 pkg and replacing the eboot and editing the sfo should work.

==== Service Mode in relation to PS2 emulation tests ====
* Service mode resets display settings (on default it uses HDMI with composite on MultiAV connector) - this means that users of Component cables can get garbled screen / no display output (in tests below, the primairy screen) unless using composite wiring/screen (in tests below, the secondairy screen).

* Service Mode also resets user presets like disc autoboot, so it needs to be disabled again if needed.

* Any made Virtual Memory Cards previously will be removed and you will have no access to them, nor be able to create one.

* When PS3 is switching to PS2, connection with Sixaxis / Dualshock 3 will be lost (even when using USB wired connection). In some cases easily resyncable by using PS button, but in other cases the leds stay off and the controller cannot be used (until ps2 mode is exited or console rebooted)

* As a workaround for above wireless controller issue, you can use an USB2PS2 converter and connect an old PS2 / Dualshock2 controller.

==== tests on 2000 series PS3 Slim ====
Testplatform:
 SKU: 2000 series slim (minver 2.70)
 Firmware: 3.55 'Rogero 3.4' mmap114+peek/poke but no SS-patches
 Memorycards: MC:PS1 in slot1, MC:PS2 in slot2.
 Mainscreen: Component+Composite 576i+P/720i+P//1080i
 Sec.screen: Composite 576i
 48 titles tested (PAL disc on PAL SKU) // [[User:Euss|Euss]]

* Without Factory Service Mode : gives "Incompatible Data" when inserting PS2 disc

* When enabling [http://www.ps3devwiki.com/files/devtools/lv2-v9-pkg/ LV2Patcher] without factory service mode (patch4 set as http://pastie.org/private/jp8zhvuocjz95cfrjm0uzg) : no changes in XMB:Game (still only PS upscaler/smoothing, no PS2 mention at all)

* When enabling [http://www.ps3devwiki.com/files/devtools/lv2-v9-pkg/ LV2Patcher] without factory service mode (patch4 set as http://pastie.org/4355919) : gives XMB:Game PS2 smoothing/upscaling options, it also make an inserted disk to be seen as PS2 format. Still same problem of ¨incompatible title¨ and loss of BT/settings. Also after returning to XMB, it no longer sees the disc as PS2 format but as incompatible data (which suggests the lv2 patch is undone, as lv2 is reloaded when returning from the ps2 lpar)

* Using [http://www.ps3devwiki.com/files/OtherOSplusplus/misc/boot_ps2.pkg boot_ps2.pkg] without factory service mode : no resetting of date/time/displayoutput (still output on mainscreen), but all connection to any bound bluetooth device is lost, even when connected via USB (need PS button reactivation), and after a long while comes up with the message that the title is not compatible and that the ps3 needs to be updated (Basic nag screen that is on BC PS3s when inserting a noncompatible title). 

* With Factory Service Mode enabled (there are no Xmb options to combinetest with [http://www.ps3devwiki.com/files/devtools/lv2-v9-pkg/ LV2Patcher] or [http://www.ps3devwiki.com/files/OtherOSplusplus/misc/boot_ps2.pkg boot_ps2.pkg]): gives ´PS2 disc´ detected at disc icon, but starting gives: resetting of date/time/displayoutput (effectively disabling my mainscreen), then all connection to any bound bluetooth device is lost, even when connected via USB (needs multiple PS button reactivation), and after a long while comes up with the message that the title is not compatible and that the ps3 needs to be updated (Basic nag screen that is on BC PS3s when inserting a noncompatible title).

In short: [http://www.ps3devwiki.com/files/OtherOSplusplus/misc/boot_ps2.pkg boot_ps2.pkg] and Factory Service Mode seem to enable simulare (it tries to boot it) while [http://www.ps3devwiki.com/files/OtherOSplusplus/misc/boot_ps2.pkg boot_ps2.pkg] gives you more options e.g. using [http://www.ps3devwiki.com/files/devtools/lv2-v9-pkg/ LV2Patcher].
Perhaps hardswapping out all the dev_flash ps2 emu files for the same software only emulator would circumvent the 'incompatible title' message.


==== Second test: FW 2.70/3.15 ==== 
Silent Hill : gives disk icon "unsupported data" and error message like "This model of the PS3 system is not compatible with Playstation2 format software" when run via disc icon. Using [http://www.ps3devwiki.com/files/OtherOSplusplus/misc/boot_ps2.pkg boot_ps2.pkg] gives title not supported error message like "This title is not currently compatible with the PS3 system".

==== Third test: FW 3.55 OtherOS++22GB (with SS Patches) ==== 
Silent Hill : gives disk icon "unsupported data" and error message like "This model of the PS3 system is not compatible with Playstation2 format software" when run via disc icon. Using [http://www.ps3devwiki.com/files/OtherOSplusplus/misc/boot_ps2.pkg boot_ps2.pkg] gives blackscreen lockup, not reacting on PS button, or powerbutton, requiring removing powercord.

These have no listed issues:
* Half-Life
* Hulk
* Medal of Honor: Frontline
These have minor issues listed (but should still play):
* Silent Hill 3
* Second Sight

==== tests on CECHC04 (partial BC) ====
on 3.41 or on 3.55 in normal XMB mode (no disc icon in XMB): boot_ps2.pkg gives no resetting of date/time/displayoutput (still output on mainscreen), but all connection to any bound bluetooth device is lost, even when connected via USB (need PS button reactivation), and after a long while comes up with the message that the "The system was not turned off properly" as if it had experienced poweroff and from there booted back to XMB. It then returns to the XMB, but first gives an error screen, mentioning 0x80028F17 occured (''PS2 mode error 	0x80028F17 	"An error occurred during the start operation (80028F17)," PlayStation 2 disc Boot Error, also related to PS1 PSN games.'')

on 3.41 or on 3.55 in normal XMB mode (disc icon in XMB): boot_ps2.pkg gives resetting of date/time/displayoutput (no output on mainscreen), but all connection to any bound bluetooth device is lost, even when connected via USB (need PS button reactivation). The game is playable on secondary screen, and exit to XMB with holding PS button goes without 0x80028F17 errors, but does give the "The system was not turned off properly" error.

no disc icon:
* Medal of Honor: Rising Sun
* Half-Life

disc icon:
* Hulk
* Second Sight
* Silent Hill 3

==== Renaming ps2_netemu to ps2_emu ====

Tested renaming ps2_netemu.self to ps2_emu.self on CECHB01/rogero 4.21 with dev_blind mounting via multiMAN but boots to black screen, no disc activity, but controller shuts off and is synced. No PS button menu or anything.

boot_ps2.pkg boots, no disc activities, then throws up an error depending if the file is resigned for 4.21 or not. (tried both a resigned and the existing version)

==== Tests on NON-BC CECHP01/NTSC-U (Firmware 2.60/boot_ps2.pkg) ====
<br>
<br>Amplitude - Intro prompts are completely glitched, unresponsive to controller input.
<br>Backyard Football 2007 - Graphical glitches during menu and gameplay. Frame rate is okay.
<br>Boogie - Intro FMV runs very slow, fails to recognize input after the title screen.
<br>MLB 08: The Show - Intro videos run smoothly. Menus load with no issue. Gameplay is extremely slow with graphical glitches. Network configuration utility is completely garbled.

==Hidden/Inaccessible menu in ps2_emu==

Apparently PS2EMU (CECH A/B) have some hidden menu that is able to print IOP configs from bios (XPARAM.ELF), i didn't found way to get there, my only idea is replacing other menu with that one in jump case at 0x5D980 (emu around 4.78). Case 21, and 22 is what seems to be hidden menu. 
More info about printed data: https://www.psdevwiki.com/ps3/PS2_Emulation#TitleID.2FDiscID_in_ps2_netemu.self

==Crazy Taxi check==
Emulators ps2_netemu, and ps2_gxemu (maybe others too), after calculating game hash perform compare check to 0x2BD12D81ED.
ID match US release of Crazy Taxi. This id is kinda special, because Swap Magic CD version, and some other Datel products like Action Replay use Crazy Taxi TOC in their retail discs.
Is known that they literally ripped part of disc (with key/logo, and TOC), and frankesteined it with own products.
So mentioned check first compare hash, and if that match, then run function that perform another check at disc sector 267559 (0x41527), so exactly where main executable is.
I didn't figured out what next, but this is probably anti AR/Datel/SM check. What's weird, there seems to be nothing for TimeSplitters2 which if i recall correctly was used for DVD version of Swap Magic.

Notes:
N commands handling differ a lot from pcsx2, doing that correctly is important for emulation.
Read model number return SCPH-50000 while returned mechacon version is (not existing?) 3.9.
This model should return Dragon mechacon rev, so 5.0 and up. 
Returned ConsoleID is 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00, this can be issue in corner case where game additionally check for non zero result.
Returned iLinkID is 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00, this break Time Crisis 2,3, and one of Armored Core games on pcsx2, surprisingly netemu run them fine.
Every "mechacon_auth" command return zeroed result with different size. Only exception here is 0x81 which return 1.

1000F800 to 1000F8B0 seems to be some fake regs for testing purposes. Probably not existing on real PS2. 
* 1000F820 return "DrJock TV Quiz P"
* 1000F830 return "hD bags few lynx"
That make string "DrJock TV Quiz PhD bags few lynx" - This is perfect summary of Sony work. Since correct pangram should use "MrJock". So even here they made mistake. 
* 1F00F880 return hardcoded value of 0x4457, which match emu revision i'm working on. Can be just coincidence.
