A pic you took and uploaded to pc ? or actually the game lol

O.O How did you manage to do that lol

yes it is an emulator

recently support was released for ps2 ethernet and usb

just have to rip your frontiers disk and patch your iso

it is great because if your machine is good enough you can beef up the resolution and add anti aliasing

i just use an xbox USB controller

give me a little bit of time and I will post a link to a compressed file with full instructions

FYI you may get banned if you cannot properly get your disk's online ID
also, it may be quite laggy unless you have a really good CPU.
i'm pretty sure pcsx2 doesn't support quad core CPUs.
sony may ban you for doing such a thing.
also, it will not help you to cheat.

also, you have to have a working PS2 to be safe. if you cannot get your disk's online ID, you will find it online. if 2 people use that ID (they are unique to each disk) they will know you are using a burned game and ban you.

Oh, I prolly shoulda mentioned that they also might ban your PS2 from online (or atleast from EQOA). Which really only means that the bios you're using will be banned. Since you're also prolly not using a bios from your PS2 (which is illegal if you aren't, pirating software) then that bios might end up banned, disallowing your EQOA access. However, if you are using your PS2's bios and not your game's ID then your real PS2 has a chance of getting banned.

I'm just throwing this info in. Not at all trying to imply that it WILL happen, only that it MAY. Honestly, I doubt it will, but that bascially how it worked for Socom I, II, III & III:CA.

However, C9 ("Code 9") and other methods of cheating on Socom will not work on EQOA because the server is where all the info is, and it doesn't trust the PS2 client enough to change any server side data based on it. Such as changing your char's name will only be cosmetic -- it will only change it on your screen. The server and other players will still see your original name.

P.S.
The game is pretty laggy on a 2.8 GHZ dual core AMD processor. Unplayably so as a tank (and possibly healer). And all cases where fast action will keep you alive. Not sure how much help a better graphics card will be though, as this lag was with an integrated video card.

Man.. you must tell me how to do this!! PLEASE!!1 haha. I will die without this knowledge!

Guys let's look at this from a different perspective.
The games dying, let's be honest here. MAYBE we can get it onto the pc some how and then free servers? That wouldn't help the population but i dunno. I'm always worried I'm going to log on some time and all the servers will be "down"...

I think it would be pretty awesome to get EQOA running on a laptop...but emulating a ps2 takes way to much resources for any class of laptop I could afford.

Also to the OP how do you have firefox but not adblock installed?

Not exactly an answer to my question. I understand wanting to play once the servers are offline. What I asked is why do they so badly want to play on the real servers on their PC? I think that's what I meant. I didn't reread this thread.

Ok, so luckily I do have the developing skill, and a friend of mine is a software engineering manage who said he can give me some direction and help in building the server. We need packets though. I'm going to start sniffing tonight. We have to figure out what kind of protocol the server uses in order to reverse engineer it. Going to be fun...hopefully possible...maybe not hard to tell yet. Secondly, we have to program the client to go to the IP address of the server that we create...which can't just be my computer lol, we would probably have to rent some server space or i'd have to build an actual server hardware setup, which I havent looked into costs yet. First things first though. Server protocol and packets. Thanks.
