What you need:

* Swap Magic 3.6+ [Some reports of v3.8 are recorded to work, others have been unsuccessful] (Purchase here or here)
* Launch PS3 (20/60gb) - NTSC/Japanese (Must have emotion engine, only launch PS3's had this) [Note there have been reports that this method works on NTSC BC consoles] .
* Flash Drive (PSP in USB MODE will also work).



1. Download the USBAdvance Tutorial File Pack.
2. Extract the contents of the folder USBADVANCE to the root of your flash drive/PSP.
3. Boot up SWAPMAGIC and once loaded into the menu screen, press UP (on D-Pad)+L2 on your PS3 controller to browse through your flash drive. If you are unable to view your flash drive, then it is not compatible (use another one).
4. Copy the BADATA-SYSTEM folder and USBLD_01.ELF file to your Virtual Memory Card (on PS3).
5. Go inside BADATA-SYSTEM folder and cut/move the Pictures and SWAPMAGIC folder to ROOT the Virtual Memory Card.
6. Remove your FLASH DRIVE, press the button and quit the game and go back to XMB and launch swap magic.
7. At this point you should move the Playstation 2 ISO's of your choice to your external HDD/flash drive. You need to have them properly formmated and copied over via USBExtreme (is included in file you downloaded above). If you are not sure how to do this, there is a quick tutorial that guides you through the process. Make sure your USB/Flash drive is plugged into your PS3.
8. Once booted, browse and launch USBLD_01.ELF
9. And there you have it, if you followed this tutorial properly you should see the Playstation 2 ISO's there and just click and launch

How to copy PS2 ISO's to a external USB/flash drive

1. Download the USBAdvance Tutorial File Pack. (Ignore if you downloaded it in last tutorial), and extract the folder USB EXtreme to you desktop.
2. Plug in your USB HDD (or Flash drive)
3. Put a PS2 game into your disc drive (if the game is already on your computer you can mount it with Alcohol 120)
4. Open up the USB EXTREME tool on your compute.
5. Select your Disc Drive the PS2 game is in, Media type (most are DVD's) and your USB/Flash drive.
6. Now you can name the game and hit start.
7. There you have it a properly copied game to your HDD, just pop it in your PS3 and follow step 8 from above.


F.A.Q
Q: Does this work on PAL PS3's?
A: No, support for PAL is expected to be released soon. (does not work on ANY pal systems at the moment).

Q: But my PS3 is backwards compatible, why doesn't this work?
A: It does not work with SOFTWARE EMULATION (which is what your PS3 most likely has). If its not a "launch unit" it will NOT WORK RIGHT NOW.

Q: How do I know if my unit is a LAUNCH UNIT?
A: Check model number on back of PS3, if it is a launch unit it will be one of the follow: CECHA, CECHB, CECHC, CECHD

Q: Does this work on NTSC PS3's?
A: We have had reports that some people got this working on NTSC consoles with EE (backwards compatibility).

Q: What PS3's can use this method of PS3's?
A: Basically USA and Japenese Launch Consoles (20/60gb) that contain the Emotion Engine (PS3 Models CECHA, CECHB, CECHC, CECHD)

Q: Will it work on a PS3 with no Emotion Engine?
A: No not yet.

Q: Does this boot from PS3 internal HDD?
A: No you need a external.

Q: What version of SWAP MAGIC do I need?
A: 3.6+ or 3.8 (Some reports of v3.8 are recorded to work, others have been successful)

Q: Where can I buy Swap Magic?
A: Here and here.

Q: Swap Magic cant see my USB for somereason
A: It is probably not compatible, buy another one.





(1) Swap Magic 3.8 and 3.6 both work

(2)SwapMagic 3.8 may say 3.6 on the cover.

(3)You cannot burn a copy of Swap Magic as it will be a copied disc and the Ps3 can't boot them - (opening the ps3 and swapping may work but I doubt anyone wants to do that).

(4) Your version of Swap Magic needs to be for your region as the Ps2 cannot play different region games. (Again opening the Ps3 and swapping can work around this restriction).

(5) The USB Loader so far only works on Jap Consoles. If you don't have a Jap console with backwards compatibility then it won't work for you. (This may change in the future or it may not).

(6) Once you have SwapMagic booted you can use either LaunchElf or UlaunchElf as your ELF Loader. The first one LaunchElf picks up mass: by itself where as ULaunchElf needs an extra USB.IRX file).

(7) The USB Program will boot on all consoles with BC when installed correctly however it will only detect an external USB device on JAP Consoles. If you have followed the instructions you should see the application boot but it will just tell you that it can't detect an external USB device.

alors les consoles jap et ntsc 60 go ont l'emulation 100 compatible (materiel+logiciel)
alors que les pal (autrement dis les 60 go euro) n'ont que 50% compatible (que logiciel) donc en gros il faut soit vivre aux japon ou aux states soit acheter une console en import si j'ai bien compris   :)

(en plus, on a un probleme de zone sur les jeux ps2, et j'avoue mon ignorance sur la possibilité du swapmagic de lancer des iso d'une autre zone.. si quelqu'un l'ayant deja fait sur une PS2 pouvait me l'indiquer )

C'est une superbe nouvelle!
j'espère que juste qu'on va en rester la. J'ai pas envie que la ps3 finisse comme la psp

Il faut impérativement une PS3 avec l'émulation matérielle (intégrant l'Emotion Engine), mais pas forcément une console Jap.

J'ai une 60 go européenne payée 500€ (lors de la baisse des prix) ,avec émulation matérielle, les 4 port USB etc... Ne pas généralisez les cas.

Par contre si il faut l'émulation matérielle ce qui est normal, y a pas trop grand intérêt je préféré encore glisser mon DVD dans ma PS3 et jouer à FF X . Sauf peut être pour moins utilisé la lentille fragile de la PS3.

Je parle bien sur d'utilisation légale. Avec des jeux que je possède. Et de l'utilisation que cette nouvelle pourrais m'apportée
