Post: PS3 controller sync issue ps2 games
09-05-2016, 10:33 AM #1
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Ive been searching for a few hours and i cant seem to find a working solution for me anyway. Maybe im missing some steps but i need some help.
Im running rebug 4.76 cex and ive been making isos of my ps2 games. i finished copying all my ps2 games to my internal hdd today and when i went to play the controller wouldnt sync wirelessly.
At first i thought it wouldnt sync at all but i plugged it in and it did sync when connected via usb but it will not sync wirelessly. Ive enabled ps2 classics in webman and i installed ps2 classics placeholder. I thought when i installed that i would get an option in multiman to convert ps2 isos to ps2 classics but i cant find that option. I changed some of the settings in rebug toolbox like the ps2 emulator. instead of using the cobra emu i switched to the original, but that just made my ps3 screen go black when trying to load ps2 games.
I installed reactpsn and ran it but it says it cant detect my firmware version and i cant figure out how to install the .rap file it came with. I thought if i put the rap file on my usb and then ran reactpsn it would install but i dont see any evidence of that. I also tried to do it thought psnpatch but again i cant seem to figure out how to use psnpatch to install this file.
And the tutorials i am finding arent for my firmware either so im not sure whether the methods im trying will even work. I could only find tutorials for 4.70.1 and 4.80 and so far im not having much luck with this.
If anyone can assist me with this id really appreciate it. I would really like to be able to play my ps2 and ps1 games without having to have my controller linked to a 10 foot usb cable.

It works with the controller plugged in tho, not that much of a nuisance if your charger cable is 12'-24' long. Few of my favorites to replay is Matrix: the path of Neo - Black - silent hill 2 - The Warriors - Some aren't as fun like they were at time of release like twisted metal - the maddens then :( so bad, the controls then from now wow. That's also y some games weren't successful as hyped due to no pre orders and ppl trying b4 buying and can't do shit cause the controller layouts were awful.

Figured it out, for anyone who is interested.
Im not sure why ps2 classics placeholder would not work for me. When using it, it just went to a black screen and sat there forever.
A couple days ago i found another thread where someone said to use ps2 iso/classics loader. I googled that and found it, installed it and it works.
Yay, finally.
