I'll leave them here if you want the original infinity manager icon file

Thanks for the help. The first thing that I used about 3 years ago on my PS2, was the infinity manager downloaded from sksapps and a very old skin from uLE (I still have both files on my PC). When I discovered FMCB I decided to give it a try and ended up staying with it. I remember reading on many pages that there was no problem using FMCB on consoles modified with matrix infinity. I wanted to have a backup on my other MC with FunTuna in case the MC where I have FMCB fails. But maybe take your advice and reinstall INFMAN

FMCB (at least 1.8) was build with the most common chips in mind.
Most chips work fine with 1.8 and a lot of the 1.9x-versions, except for the Crystal Chip "looping" at the logo.

We even reused the default paths for DEV.1 and the Shoulderbutton-config of the Matrix Infinity, hence installing either the Noobie-Package or even the basic install-package installs wLE into the same path/"slot" like DEV.1 is stored at.

To be honest I do not know...

Did you use USB drivers from 17\05\2020:
https://github.com/ps2dev/ps2sdk/commits/master/iop/usb.
Or the ones that comes with FMCB 1.8b?

My SDK is older, so, no, not these...
The SDK I used is from the very same date that wLE was commited (not my wLE modification, the stable release itself), so it should work exactly as the stable one...

Check the POPStarter guide on how to get it working.

Your FunTuna package was made\uploaded 30\08\2020.
Latest wLaunchELF version is from 07\08\2020.
Latest USB drivers are from 17\05\2020.

So your version is "equal" to wLe from 07\08\2020?

Because I am not sure which wLe version is stable...

Regarding what I have read, this one: https://github.com/ps2homebrew/wLaunchELF/releases/tag/170827a

Of course, we use the official OPL, not the OPL DB nonsense.
Why? Read here: https://www.psx-place.com/threads/funtuna-free-mcboot-for-fortuna.30973/page-2#post-259345

So a version from 27\08\2017...
In 2018\2019 SP193 made a few fixes (but a lot of work) for USBHDFSD drivers.
You can read about them in a Tentative changelog here:
https://www.psx-place.com/threads/wlaunchelf.20791/.

Also you can check these commits at GitHub (including commit 41e4ebe):
https://github.com/ps2homebrew/wLaunchELF/commits/master.

So older versions including the one from 27\08\2017 may cause some problems with USB drives.

Good to know! I will keep this in mind for later. Thanks for pointing it out.

Ok then how do I play PS1 games on Funtuna?

You cannot. Fortuna doesn't run PSX games. It is exploit on which You can run homebrew applications like i.e emulators (POPS via POPStarter or PS2PSXe). Disc images only; for POPS they must contain TOC, for PS2PSXe they cannot contain TOC).

From discs, none of the exploit allows You to run games from different region than console and/or from CD-R or CD-RW. That's feature only modchips can provide (or cheat engines pressed on disc for swapping). The same also for PS2 games on CD (in theory it is possible via CDX or UMCDR implementation, just like fake DVD-Video via ESR but no one written such app and high probably no one ever will write it).

It depends...
Original? Backup? From disc, or from USB/HDD/SMB?

ISOs from an external hard drive on the PS2

Just use POPS via wLE_kHn+POPStarter or via APPS page on OPL
Or PS2PSXe directly or via PS2SX...

Because the won't automatically show up there... YOU have them MAKE to appear there!

See above... Btw.: What does this have to do with Fortuna or Funtuna? It's actually totally unrelated...
