The fan mod is an interesting one. I used a 5v Noctua and that works perfectly, quietish but not close to silent. The schematics say the fan gets up to 8v, but it seems to be more of a fixed output - voltage rises until the power draw is high enough. The 5v Noctua handles more power than the original fans in the 3900 models, so it doesn't seem to receive more than 5v.

@guruguru214 4 месяца назад

I like how you highlighted using the boot card as a Free McBoot card. I use my MemCard Pro GC the same way, if a little less elegantly. I haven't done PicoBoot or anything, so I have my boot card set to a hacked save file that runs iplboot (the same loader PicoBoot uses) from the memory card, which launches Swiss off the SD2SP2, then Swiss switches me to a card for whatever game I pick. Like you said, it makes it hard to imagine using my GameCube without it. The MemCard Pro line is a total game changer.

@cheddar6738 4 месяца назад

Do you have a guide of how to set that up?

@guruguru214 4 месяца назад

@@cheddar6738 I've tried a couple times to give you some pointers, but my comments keep disappearing. I guess it's something I'm saying? Just search for the things I talked about using and you should hopefully get pointed in the right direction. If you get stuck, I can try again here or you can look me up elsewhere and I'll help. Edit: Since this comment stayed up, I'll try here and I'll keep it short: Google the name of the loader, that'll get you it, the game saves, and instructions. Use Tito's PicoBoot video to set up the SP2. Use this video to set up the virtual memory card. You'll need GCMM, either on Swiss or a Wii, to get the stuff on the memory card.

@Formedras 4 месяца назад

Does the MemCard Pro2 have the ability to have multiple games on one channel via GameID recognition? For example, it would be nice to be able to use the same virtual card for all the Armored Core games on the PS2, since they all can import various amounts of data from prior games. (AC2AA can pull saves from AC2, AC3SL can pull from AC3, 9B can pull from Nexus, LR can pull from both Nexus and 9B, and they can all pull Emblem data from prior games.) Similar for the .hack franchise. (Each chapter of a series pulls from the previous one, G.U. Terminal Disc pulls from the three G.U games, G.U. Vol.1 can pull from all of the original series, and each G.U. chapter can use LATER chapters' save data to unlock enhanced starting stats.) Even Sony themselves got into it: In Gran Turismo 4, having save data from GT3 or a GT Concept game can give you extra money. (Not to mention the Arc the Lad games on PS1.)

@CAVisualProductions 4 месяца назад

I gotten this card a few weeks ago and just now starting to work with it. And I tell you this is an AMAZING card and was worth the wait! I did test putting the card into my PS1 console which has the X-Station, and the mode switched automatically to the PS1 mode. Unfortunately when I placed it back into my PS2 it was still in the PS1 mode so I had to switch it manually. In addition if you put in a physical PS1 disc (switching to PS1 mode on the console) the MCP2 will also change to that mode. I guess that If the card was updated to where it can automatically switch back to PS2 that would be awesome. In addition the other issue with the MCP2 is that when in OPL when your playing a game obviously the VMC will show the current game being played. If one uses the IGR though it won't work since the MCP2 has to be back on the FMCB card for it to work (I have yet to test this). And as for PS3 compatibility that is sooo awesome even though I have the PS3 Mem card adapter back when it was cheap back in the day. What a time to be alive in this modern gaming age!! Great job on this video!

@3rd.Eye.Saw.Destruction 4 месяца назад

I’m a little confused at how the virtual memory cards are mounted but I highly recommend everyone to keep fmc and other programs on a separate physical memory card if you’re using this to play games off of. If it’s using some sort of multitap protocol that could be a huge bottleneck that might break compatibility for some games. It might not be a big issue for most stuff especially if you’re not playing madden with 8 people or using other accessories but it’s good to keep this in mind. Another issue that comes to mind in using OPL is freezing while saving (which is already an issue for games that aren’t running off HDD) I foresee it being exacerbated to the point of being frozen twice as long or even locking up if you’re running everything off this. Maybe it has some features that fix this through its microprocessor but idk, just some concerns I had.

It unfortunately cant do load games, just the save files. Would be neat if it could become a super version of the mx4sio

@HUYI1 4 месяца назад

@@MachoNachoProductions oh I see, it's still a neat useful device and would even work well with the slim model and a modchip, to manage game save files, I still have my old PS2 slim with a matrix infinity that is stored away that could be used well, even my pink slim 7000x model could use this as a bypass method to swap load games with dvd discs possibly? I'm sketchy when it comes to PS2 because of how old it is lol

@HUYI1 4 месяца назад

@@tnaplastic2182 hmm, well I hope it does progress even further, even if emulating is out there for PS2 games and works well now it's still good to archive and still be able to load all our old PS2 original game discs with ease and modern methods

@tnaplastic2182 4 месяца назад

@@MachoNachoProductions It's on the idea-list but on the backburner until all the other stuff works without big flaws. MX4SIO-like game-loading probably will be quite an effort to accomplish, so we (PS2-Scene side of the collaboration) rather want to get some basics running PERFECTLY (or close to), before working on that.

The memcard pro series are the one tech in this hobby that are *always* an *immediate* buy for me these days.

It's so good, I recently bought 8BitDo Retro Receiver Mini, I would like to see one day convert the RJ45 to Wi-Fi or integrated into a memory card to be able to play online games (with custom DNS) because it It's annoying to make a PS2 bridge with my laptop to be able to play online or leave the cable lying on the floor too far to the modem box...

Manually swapping memory cards while using MX4SIO is... not a problem that this solves. You dont need a separate memory card for FMCB. You can save on your FMCB card.

@blindhouse4744 4 месяца назад

I use my mx4sio on slot 2 and use vmc in opl so my saves store in the mx4sio sd card

I am very new to this. Are the roms now on the hdd or are the on the sdcard in the memory card?

@shockwave.9749 4 месяца назад

Excited for mine to come in! Quick question, as I will be using it on stock ps2, can you name the memory cards manually so when your cycling through them you know which one is for which game?

@tnaplastic2182 4 месяца назад

You can.

@CardCaptorKaren 4 месяца назад

I got one of these day 1 and I'd like it a lot more if there wasn't a coinflip chance of the SD card corrupting when manually swapping cards, so it's become OPL use only for me with regular memory cards still holding for disc games. Straight replacing my FMCB card is hella useful though.

Countless amazing titles I've owned for the PS2 and they're quite good on the stock console for point of reference until we can retire this thing forever. Nice showcase!

Wow, all three consoles. Been thinking about getting each for obvious reasons.

Tito, loved the video. Can you add a link to the Blue Retro adaptor you used for the PS2? I'm sure a lot of people would like to buy a high quality low latency version!

@MachoNachoProductions 4 месяца назад

Just added a link, but it’s not blue retro, it’s the retro fighters defender wireless controller. It’s great!

@AmpliFreQuency 4 месяца назад

The tipping needle in my mind was kind of leaning towards buying one, but on top of PS1 compatibility and OPL on the PS2, showing the bonus PS3 feature made that needle in my mind shatter on the floor of the buying side. Purchased! Hopefully MechaPwn doesn't mess with the card in any way!

MechaPwn'd consoles work fine with it.

@Matt23488 4 месяца назад

Is it possible to have specific games share a virtual card? Like some sequels let you load your save from previous games to unlock extra content, so you'd want both games to use a shared card instead of separate ones

@RNRSpiderman 4 месяца назад

I want one for N64 though I guess there aren't as many games that use the memory card.

@tnaplastic2182 4 месяца назад

Being worked on by another team AFAIR.

@theoldone22 4 месяца назад

There are a few games that will unlock more features if it sees a save file for another game on the card, does this support setting up shared virtual card for this up or better detect those games and automatically share the card with other games in such a set? Example is Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time gives a discount and a hat when it sees a Tools of Destruction and Quest for Booty save.

@tnaplastic2182 4 месяца назад

You can share VMCs amongst games.

Would it not be possible to use the Memcard pro 2 also as a Mx4sio/Mc2sio to directly load games from the sd card? Maybe as a future software update?

@tnaplastic2182 4 месяца назад

Yes, that's TECHNICALLY probably possible! It is however not done and currently not being worked on, because some other features are more important right now.
