hi, im facing a issue with vmc in OPL, i wanted to create vmc for all ps2 games in opl because i buyed the mx4sio memory card so i don't have another slot on ps2 because there is already mx4sio and fmcb memory card, for convert my already saves in vmc i use ulaunchelf and i copied all save folders on memory card i used to save my ps2 games and i converted all folders in psu format to make it compatible with mymc, after on opl i created a generic memory card because there was that option so in the computer i putted all ps2 saves in the generic.bin vmc but when i want in opl to start a game with vmc it says that the generic vmc is fragmented and it doesn't let me use vmc's on the ps2, how i can fix this problem, i'm doing something wrong with the process?, can someone help me fix this issue?, because i would like to play ps2 games with mx4sio with vmc without having to restarting the game progress again. Sorry for my bad english i'm not motherlanguage

you can use a defragmenter program on PC where you can defrag the fragmented VMC... THOUGH be aware your save files inserted or inside the generic_0.bin might get corrupted... it always or sometimes happens that whenever you created a generic_0.bin or generic_1.bin it has a chancer of being fragmented... mymc is a great PS2 Save manager and i just used it recently to back up my VMC saves then transfer save files inside the bin to my other VMC save from my other 2 usb external hdd for PS2 games...i have a 3 usb external hdd full of games on my PS2 Slim and im aware the sometimes generic_0 and generic_1 gets easily corrupted or fragmented... and recently i just tested all PS2 GTA Games Save files doesnt load or detected on VMC...even if i choose 8-16-32mb on OPL...its really frustrating that GTA games loads save file so slow if you are using a physical memory card with 256MB of storage WHILE other games manage to load fine like God of War 1 and 2... they dont have problems loading a save file in a 256mb memory card...

    @K3Nv2, RIP Felix does great videos on the PS3 yellow-light-of-death.
  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
