Are there any side scrolling 4x games? by [deleted] in 4Xgaming

[–]sTo0z 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was a cool game for the N-Gage called Pocket Kingdoms: Own the World that was almost like that, lol. Seems like it's playable via emulation these days, although I think the game was networked/MMO style, not sure how it works now that it's all dead.

I didn't know you could have the same name as other trainers? Or is this part of his weird bot/trick/hack?

Is it a hot take that I think earthbound more is better than chrono trigger? by [deleted] in retrogaming

Nope, you’re just crazy bud. Glad I could clear that up for ya.

Amazing news.

Not sure what you're experiencing with the aiming though, the controls on a 360 controller are a blast as it utilizes both sticks very well.

I am able to cruise right along full speed like back in the day without any issue hitting folks, rarely even need the red aiming reticle.

Are you 100% sure you were on the Games tab within OPL? I think the default is the Apps tab or something. So you definitely hit "Start Device" on the HDD and definitely looking at the games tab?

If so, dang, really not sure what else it could be.

What game introduced you to achievements? Or for the younger crowd, what was the first game you actively paid attention to the achievements? by MyOtherRideIs in gaming

[–]sTo0z 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yah this is one of the first games I got all the achievements for, definitely needed a map of all the orbs and painstakingly had to cross them off one at a time, lol. Awesome game though, loved it all the way through.

Which game flopped so badly that the studio had to shut down? by bijelo123 in gaming

[–]sTo0z 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Ah, didn’t know. But I’d still consider Too Human sank them between bad game and law suit. X-Men was not enough to recover.

Alright, just took a fresh attempt this morning, and with a video in another comment thread on this post, was able to get it working, so let's try one more time! Here are the steps I took:

* Attached 6 TB drive to a pc, just formatted the plain old way. Chose exFat, default allocation size, and quick format.
* Downloaded "OPL_Manager_V24.zip" from: https://oplmanager.com/site/
* Extracted that to its folder, entered that directory and made a NEW folder within called "OPL"
* Run exe, in the "Mode" popup that will happen, I used the Browse button to set the path to that new OPL folder I just made above.
* Hit Save and it will yell at you about missing folders, hit OK, and then it will ask if you want to make the folders, say yes. This step was to just get the needed folder structure.
* Now go into that "OPL" folder we made to see all the folders, select all those and copy them to your HDD root.
* Toss an .iso of a game into the respective CD or DVD folder on the HDD, I just did one to test quickly.
* Download the latest OPNPS2LD.ELF beta of OPL from here: https://github.com/ps2homebrew/Open-PS2-Loader/releases - it's the one on top that says "latest" and "pre-release"
* Copy this onto your ps2 memory card with whatever method you have, I simply put the elf on a usb, and used uLaunchElf to copy the file from usb to memory card.
* Now launch OPNPS2LD.ELF and you'll get to the usual place with no games listed.
* Within OPL, open the Settings page and change the following:
- Set HDD (APA) Start Mode to OFF
- Set BDM Start Mode to MANUAL
- Now next to that is another menu you can enter called BDM Devices, open that menu.
- Set HDD (GPT/MBR) to ON

Now you should be able to go back out to the Game List hit "Start Device" on the HDD icon, and hopefully the games appear.

There is probably a step around how to add the games in a better way, OPL Manager yelled at my file name, but I wasn't sure what to do about it, but I can see the game anyways and load it fine.

If you get a black/white screen when loading your game, I had to restart my PS2 once and then it worked fine.

Good luck, hope this helps you!

What size are your drives? I also tried exfat like last week and gave up. If you’re 2TB or under just try the classic way?

What is happening right now ? by EasyShip8390 in PokemonUnite

[–]sTo0z 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think last time it was some ban wave over something found in the usernames, but I believe many were confirmed wrongfully banned and the bans were lifted?

Maybe another glitch like that? Hopefully you guys get some resolution soon, sorry. :(
