PS3 Save Metal Gear Online 1 ps2

[SniperSnake]

Hi i am trying to figure out if it is possible to run the metal gear online 1 cheats on ps3 to play MGO1 ps2 subsistance disc 2 on ps3?

I have a ps3 slim that does run ps2 ISOs and ps2 classics .pkg game fine im just running into issues where trying to run ulaunchelf via a swap magic. Iso or run any .elf for that matter.
I belive its due to the slim ps3 vs a full BC 60gb ps3 not having usb access.

Anyways can i use gameshark like codes on a ps2 iso from ps3 cfw?

I think MGS2 and 3 had copy protection so you couldn't just add a launcher to the disc unless you keep the LBA correct so if you are just trying to add ulaunchelf to the game and launch it that way it won't work with either game.
I don't have this particular game for ps2 (anymore) but for a lot of PS2 games "PS2 Patch Engine" works pretty well, it can patch cheats directly into the iso and the only real issue with this method is that you can't turn cheats on and off easily, but if this doesn't work Haxxxen did make a method for putting a codebreaker into the game and putting the games ELF onto the memory card

and IF that still doesn't work then next would be to rebuild the games image and keep track of the LBA and add a launcher at the end of the LBA so that all the game files stay where they should be.
Good luck and let us know how it goes.

I am working on this with lots of headaches from guides being outdated to the apps they use.

Im looking to patch the iso itself with the cheats to bypass extra .elf loading. Id like to also try a patched iso on my ps4 pro and ps5 via that game expolit. Mgo1 has been my favorite online game of all time. It was my first i ever really got into

well the "big" issue would probably be getting online working, you Can't ps2 games online on slim ps3 and probably the same on ps4 or ps5, on PS3 the ps2 emulator doesn't support online (on non-backwards compatability models) and i suspect the same on ps4 and 5 (but if anyone can prove this wrong feel free but i have never seen ps2 games online on ps4 or ps5 to date)
