Recommended PS2 Tools

Here’s a list of the most usefull PS2 tools ever released on the net (for free of course) ;) beside i’ve already tested it all and all this tools works great


Code (Gameshark, Codebreaker, ARMax) Converting / Decrypting :

PS2 Ripping Tools (although i’ve already put this on my previous post but i forgot to add the link to the official website, so i put it again together in here) ;) :

Note: The official site is in Japanese, but if you don’t want to download each one of these files you can download it from my uploaded files (included in my previous post about ripping PS2 Movie)

  • PSS Demux (used to Demux Audio and Video from PS2 Stream : PSS Demux
  • PSS Player (used to play directly the PS2 Stream without demuxing it first, if you dont like to convert it into another video container first) : PSS Player
  • MFAudio (can be used to demux and convert the PS2 Audio Stream into standard WAV format) : MFAudio

Note: If you need to download cheating devices like ARMax, Codebreaker, Gameshark, etc. You can contact me directly for more information about this ;)

Save Game Converter :

FTP Server Program (for use in PS2 Machine) :

Note: for those who cant copy the ELF executable into your ps2 memory card in order to run it from ExecFTP Standalone version, choose the ExecFTP ISO Image version as temporary solution and burn it into blank CD-R using your favorite burning program in order to run the ExecFTP program … but you’ll need swap magic trick if you’re not using Modchip on your playstation 2 console. (im going to create some tutorial on this topic in the future, so dont forget to bookmark this site) :P

PS2 Bootable CD / DVD Creating tools :

  • Dummy File Creator : Use this tools to create a dummy files on your burned ps2 cd / dvd
  • CDGen 3 : this is the tools used to create a bootable CD / DVD Structure for your burned ps2 disc

PS2 Media Player to play Divx / XVid video on your PS2 (run this on your ps2 machine) :

  • PS2 Reality Media Player : although there’s similar apps like this one but i choose this program to play media files such as MP3, Divx / Xvid Video on my pstwo

Apps Launcher for your PS2 Machine :

  • LaunchElf : this launcher simply is the best launcher for me ;)

Playing PS2 from your HDD (since im using slim pstwo i cant use HDLoader program), so the only way for me to play through HDD is by using USB HDD Advance by connecting my harddisk drive into usb connector (not all games can be played like on HDLoader) .. if you need it try searching the internet because im not going to put any links to it (illegal) ;)

And don’t forget to check my newest post for an All in one ps2 tools

    Nice page, sort of. Video ripper, audio ripper. Yeah, yeah, yeah. What about PICTURE rippers?! Where do I get those? I want to rip ALL the picture files (the ones in the “CG Gallery”) from the game “Dead or Alive 2: Hardcore”. Now if you can find me such a picture ripper, I’ll be the happiest man alive. I’ll have all the bikini-clad chicks from the game, now as wallpaper on my computer

    hi,, been looking for a way to play mp3 on my ps2 modded with modbo4 and installed with hdd (already with games thanks to winhhiip!)and boots nicely thanks to boot.elf… only if i could play mp3 and video without swappin and browsin in roots directory and by using only winhiip to install mp3s and videos (since its the only user friendly way to do it) is there a way to do this…………. thanks and looking forward to your assistance regarding my problem…

  6. Matthew said Dec 30, 2008 at 9:06 am

    i am trying to rip the movies from the new kingdom hearts re chain of memories (ntsc u/c) when i use the tools from your guide i got all the movies from the disc using fmvtool but when i demux to get the sound all that comes out are m2v files and dat files no wav. do you have any suggestions?

  7. Mark said Dec 13, 2008 at 5:31 am

    OK so I have an unmodded ps2 and all I want to do is transfer some save files over from my computer to my ps2 memory stick. Without modding it, is there a way to do this? Or if I buy Codebreaker/Action Replay will that work?

  8. Evan said Dec 1, 2008 at 5:07 pm

    I would like to know how to get ahold of this codebreaker software or ar max… i believe it is all thats left that i need to run my backups. From where do i download it, possibly free?

  9. Reaper-X said Nov 28, 2008 at 9:40 am

    Well since armax and codebreaker isnt free unfortunately you’ll need to buy it :(

    although i believe you can find it on *cough* torrent *cough* :P

    but as a side note, you’ll need a modded ps2 to run a burned armax / cb (im using modchip not using swapmagic so i can’t tell whether it’ll work or not if you’re using swapmagic)

    and lastly, codebreaker by default don’t run on non US console even if you bought it (i have PAL console), but because i have a “special” version of codebreaker i have no problem running it on PAL machine, assuming that you have good modchip installed on your ps2 ;)

  10. Tatsuya said Nov 27, 2008 at 3:46 pm

    Wow thanks for the reply! Is there anyway I can download armax or codebreaker and burn them into a disc or something?

  11. Reaper-X said Nov 27, 2008 at 7:08 am

    Hello Tatsuya, actually in order to transfer save file using USB file you’ll need a cheat device like armax or codebreaker (i have tried them both) :)

  12. Tatsuya said Nov 26, 2008 at 7:31 pm

    BUMP!!!!!! Anyone here o.O? Sorry for being impatient but still… Is there anyone here?!

  13. Tatsuya said Nov 25, 2008 at 10:37 pm

    Hey guys could anyone of you who knows how to transfer save files for ps2 games to and from the ps2 and pc(probably using the USB?)? My email is timothylimjz@hotmail.com …. I hope you guys can help me… Especially you Reaper-X.. Email me or post it here thanks… Though I would prefer you guys to email me…

  14. Selzar said Sep 3, 2008 at 10:56 pm

    Hi Reaper-X, i hope you can help me. I have a PS2 PAL that isn’t modded and i want to transfer save games between my PC and PS2. So do i need software like CodeBreaker to do it? If so which one do you recommend and where can i find it?

  15. KMathis said Aug 24, 2008 at 8:52 am

    Hi
    I am interested in obtaining a free version of code breaker9 (malware free, plz). If you know of a safe download or can send it to me I would very much appreciate it. I have a ps2 slim, but I’m not sure which version. I have never used any ps2 cheat software before, so any advice would also be much appreciated. Thanks for your time and help.

    KMathis

  16. Scott said Aug 14, 2008 at 9:40 pm

    Reaper,
    Do you know how to get a save file from a PC to a PS2 MC using a regular flash drive without having to buy ARmax, sharkport, or anything like that?

  17. Drussell said Jul 18, 2008 at 5:01 pm

    On the back of each PS2 game inner circle there is a ID number followed by a letter like thats the game number he’s referring to.

  18. Drussell said Jul 18, 2008 at 4:57 pm

    codebreaker version 9.0+ would be most compatable.
    here’s a good Q. my ps2 isn’t reading my linux pendrive even though it’s plugged in what programs are required for ps2 slim in order to read it? Like codebreaker version 9+? ARMAX is pretty good as long as your using it also.

  19. Reaper-X said Jun 12, 2008 at 2:42 pm

    Well i just tested the megaupload link and it works fine so im guessing probably you cant download it from megaupload so here goes another mirror for cdgen 3

  20. jerry said Jun 12, 2008 at 2:48 am

    PS2 Bootable CD / DVD Creating tools question. do
    you tell me where i can find CDGen 3 program to download. or can you send me the site to my email?

  21. Reaper-X said Jun 9, 2008 at 9:51 am

    # mike

    since you said your ps2 is an unmodded ps2 console, unfortunately you won’t be able to run it because you need modchip or at least you can run backup copies without problem :)

    # everyone else

    since i just get back again, just let me know if you still searching for it by posting comment again and i’ll get back to you ;)

  22. mike said Jun 7, 2008 at 5:10 am

    Is there anyway you can send me a copy of codebreaker or anything so i can download it. And also i need to know what do i do so i can load game saves on my unmodded ps2

  23. MonkeyMan said May 1, 2008 at 2:27 pm

    Could someone upload the latest version of ARMax plz. btw will this work with my PS2 slim unchipped

  24. aleckz said Apr 24, 2008 at 4:22 pm

    yoh reaper

    could you please send me the latest codebreaker and the savebuilder file. have tried to download the save builder file from the link thru this site but seems theres a problem on downloading.

    here’s my mail: ALECKZ8@YAHOO.COM

    Thanks a lot and keep up your good work!

    Dear Mr. Repear X,

    Good day to you again sir, i hope your fine and have a great day. Sir can i request to good office to lend me a copy of PS2 Emulator or pcsx2 software i am eager to play a game of a ps2 disc to play it in a personal computer if you have time please email me the emulator at f_macabeo@yahoo.com. I hoping for early reply. Thank you very much.

    Florencio

  26. Reaper-X said Apr 4, 2008 at 8:46 pm

    # florencio

    I’m really sorry for late reply because i didn’t see your comment :(

    as for your question, it looks like you’re looking for PS2 Emulator, if so then i’d suggest you to grab pcsx2 (it’s still far from perfect but if you have high end machine / computer specs then at least you can still get decent fps in-game) ;)

  27. florencio said Mar 29, 2008 at 12:36 pm

    good day reaper,

    I want to ask you if you can help me,
    My bestfriend have ps2 games discs, can i use them and play them in pc dvd rom, is there any application software can i use to access the game thru my computer

  28. klikx said Mar 8, 2008 at 4:12 pm

    Hi, reaper-x can u give me a copy of your codebreaker on my email?

  29. Reaper-X said Feb 27, 2008 at 10:24 pm

    # z00bay


    - Codebreaker v9.2.ISO
    - CB9.2.ELF
    - CODEBREAKER.ccd
    - CODEBREAKER.img
    - CODEBREAKER.sub

    Based from the filename, you can just burn the ISO file (dont use nero start smart) via nero buring rom -> burn image option from the toolbar

    as for the CCD and IMG, it’s created by CloneCD and im not sure whether you can burn file created by CloneCD with Nero

    as for the ELF file, usually that is a *cough* cr***ed *cough*

    so the easiest way … try burning the ISO file (not drag n drop) and if its still not working try burning the IMG using Alcohol or CloneCD (not drag n drop)

    # carlos

    Im not sure whether the old GS2 v3 (or known as GS3) have that function but one thing for sure is GS5 (Gameshark with Media Player) have that function

    # luigi

    Do you mean transfering the downloaded bin update file? or?

    # lexus

    all i get are coasters no matter i set burn speed to lowest or highest. 1 cd and 1 dvd is detected in ps2 as valid discs, however trying to run ‘em goes back to file browser with reading disk… message and it just stops there.

    based from your description it seems that you’ve burned it correctly .. so i’m thinking that probably your modchip isn’t compatible with it (because you dont need to put / create dummy file or at least i dont need to create dummy file)

    i’d suggest you to try the burned cd first on your friend ps2 console (with different modchip) ;)

  30. lexus said Feb 26, 2008 at 8:05 pm

    hey reaper, how are ya?

    hope you can help me out. i gotta ntsc j fat ps2, modded (the shop said matrix2 but i cant tell).

    i’ve gotten hold of cb9.2 in both ccd as well as iso format (iso file named Cracked, dunno how true that is).

    now, i’ve tried burning both the ccd as well as iso versions onto imation cd-rs as well as mitsubishi dvd+r as is (no dummy files) via Alcohol 120% and i’ve set it so that the dvd+r is detected as dvdrom.

    all i get are coasters no matter i set burn speed to lowest or highest. 1 cd and 1 dvd is detected in ps2 as valid discs, however trying to run ‘em goes back to file browser with reading disk… message and it just stops there.

    now, i’m wondering if it really is necessary to put in the dummy files? coz i’ve tried but can’t seem to d/l from ur links, seems the d/l slot for my country is full.

    so could you kindly email me the dummy file generator, a copy of cb9.2 cd+dvd versions and some instructions on burning please?

    i’ve used cb (v4 and v9.2) before (bought the pirated discs since originals not available where i’m from) and it generally works great however those discs are gone now and all the pirates in my country have stopped selling cheat discs so i’m stuck in the mud as it is.

    highly appreciated my good netizen, and thanks a zillion in advance.

    cheers,
    lexus

  31. luigi said Feb 20, 2008 at 12:27 am

    how do you get codes from a pc to a mem stick to the ps2 using action replay, it didn’t come with the ps2 stick or the evo or max drive cd download software

    cheers

  32. carlos said Feb 8, 2008 at 11:46 am

  34. Moogle said Jan 13, 2008 at 9:59 am

    greetings,

    i have ar max and i have transferred saves from the memory card (MC) to an imation 256mb up to around 3.3mb in the past, but nothing would write further to it after october. i started using a lexar 512mb, but things stopped transferring from MC to the lexar usb drive after about 3mb as well.

    i formatted both in fat, and transfer from usb drive to MC always works. i recently checked for scratches on the AR Max disc and noticed nothing too outstanding.

    can you tell me why data stops writing to the usb drive?

    thanks

  35. Elijah said Dec 30, 2007 at 11:08 am

    Hey Reaper man I have a PS2 Slim and a gameshark2 version 1.1. I’ve been trying to get codes for Final Fantasy XII but im new to this stuff what should I do?
    Future Thanks Buddy

  36. Teo said Dec 27, 2007 at 11:56 pm

    Please help me to watch a divx file on PS2 via USB stick. its necessary specific software or new model stick ????
    Thanks.

  37. debbie said Dec 14, 2007 at 10:35 am

    As I have been reading I’ve been seeing a lot about Codebreaker, what exactly is it. Is this for advanced players? Sorry for the dumb questions, but this is all new stuff to me.

  38. debbie said Dec 14, 2007 at 10:28 am

    I am buying a ps2 for my kids for x-mas and would like to make backup copys of the games I bought. This is all new to me so need some advice. I have Clone CD and Any DVD. Will this copy the games? I also understand that I need a Boot Disc or Swamp Magic to play the games on the system, what do you recommend. I would like something easy to just plug in if possible.

  39. Rin-kun said Dec 11, 2007 at 10:46 am

    Hai! I have a problem. I downloaded a save from the internet and wanted to use it for my PS2. But my PS2 cannot detect the data (but it can detect the pendrive). By the way, i used AR MAX cheat device. What format do i need to transfer data in AR MAX and Gameshark?

  40. Du said Nov 23, 2007 at 4:57 pm

    Hey i really need help. I have a ps3 and would like to play my ps2 save files on it without having to buy a memory card converter. Is there any way to put the memory card data onto a flash drive and then onto my ps3?

  41. retro said Nov 18, 2007 at 4:33 pm
