but ignore that bit
Unzip the titlemanfrontend.zip to whatever folder you want. Go to this folder and double-click “Titleman Frontend.exeâ€. You should get a window like this: Click “Create TITLE.DBâ€. Then, from the pull down list, pick the S_ _ _ that matches your region. Following my above example, you would choose SLUS. In the empty space next to this dropdown tab, type in the numbers you wrote on the scrap of paper, including the period. I would have written “004.37†in the space. Click the “Add Exec†button. Now click the “List current contents of TITLE.DB†button and make sure your newly added S-value is in the window. Close the program
Copy the new “TITLE.DB†from the Titleman folder into the “Memory Card Files†folder in the “Everything you Need†folder. (Keep it in ALL CAPS)
Unzip the PS2SaveBuilder.zip to whatever folder you want. Go to this folder and double-click “ps2save-builder.exeâ€. In the space next to “Root/ID†type the following, without quotes :
I. “BEDATA-SYSTEM†if you are in Australia or NZ (PAL)
ii. “BADATA-SYSTEM†if you are in the US (NTSC)
Select “Editâ€, then “Add File†from the top menu. Navigate to the “Memory Card Files†folder inside the “Everything You Need†folder. One by one, add all of these files, including the TITLE.DB you created earlier.
b. Your list should now have these files :
I. BOOT.ELF
ii. CDVD.IRX
iii. HDLOADER.ELF
iv. TITLE.DB
v. icon.sys
vi. my.icn
NOTE IF YOU ARE USING A JAPANESE PS2 You must make 2 save files. One with “BIDATA-SYSTEM†as the Root/ID type that contains ONLY the TITLE.DB and the icon.sys. The second save file should have a “BADATA-SYSTEM†Root/ID and contains the rest of the files.
Save the memory card file by clicking the disk icon or selecting “Fileâ€, then “Save as†from the top pull-down menu. Name the file whatever you like, I like calling it “exploit†so that I know what it is. Be sure to select “Xploderv4†as the “Save as type†save it to
c:\progam files\firelink\xlink\saves
make sure the exploder disk in ur ps2 is on the main menu screen and load the xlink software the right hand list will now list all ur games on ur memrey card drag the exploit file from the left list to the right list when its complete reset ur pc and insert ur ps1 game
