Response to the PS1 on custom firmware tutorial

It's fine. I have the discs for those games so the whole process is pretty simple from here. I know that a new version of popstation can compress them, but that is not good enough for me.

I downloaded a program called CDGenPS2. It can compress games really far down, and then you can use popstation to compress it more. I just haven't figured out how to do it yet. You can also use ISOBuster or MagicISO to do these things. Basically, you are deleting the padding files.

Some people are reporting compressions like 530mb down to 90mb! I will just hold off until I learn more about it, but I am not actively trying to learn about it at the moment.

yea but some of these things are like ur tutorial for making more flash0 memory they take out music sound fx and sometimes if done incorrectly the boot of the game

For compressing that way, sometimes certain things are taken out. I knew that when I found the program. Some people are experiencing no additional errors.

It is kind of like UMDGEN if you have ever used that.

The pad files are generally just extra space that has no use but to dummy itself/ make the image on the disc bigger/ less manageable. Again though, I am not trying to do it right now.

It was good talking to you tonight george, but I am going to get a little shuteye
