I agree, its an amazing hack, but modding for me is all about convenience. And burning disks doesn't align with my own perceived convenience. Prefer helping OPL devs to optimize further their application.

Does Linux support SMB 1.0, and if so, will it keep supporting it in the near future? Also, I was hoping there was an easier solution because I don't want to install another OS or use WSL (if the latter even supports SMB 1.0), especially when I don't even know how to work with ithem. Maybe there's a program that supports a local SMB 1.0 server without having to change any Windows setting.

EDIT: It seems OPL Server makes a local Samba server with protocol SMB 1.0 (ready for OPL) without the need to change any Windows settings or expose the PC to a risk of attack. It is a full-independent server, working on a custom port of the user preference (that one has to select in OPL later), so it doesn't interfere or change any Windows configurations or the native Windows Samba/CIFS server.

yeah, I was using a modchip for burns that I own, but I think the laser is dying yet again. my laptop doesn't have a burner whatsoever, and my parents' is screwed up for some reason. that's why I made the recent jump to opl with an mc2sio. all games run perfectly except mega man anniversary collection, which is supposed to work. no idea why that's happening.
 
does anyone know if you need the network installation disc in order to use ethernet on the ps2? I just bought an ethernet cable so that I can download the configurations for games with opl, but I don't know if I need that disc to set up everything or not.

What configurations for games? I'm curious.

do you know whether compatibility could be different with mc2sio, different sd cards, or is it the same compatibility no matter what?

I don't know. I don't know what it's for. I might have to buy one.

Oh, you're talking about the CFG files. Some games have a setting to create a network connection and so you can use them instead of the Network Access Disc. That network connection is needed to play games online so it has nothing to do with downloading the CFG files. The network connection the Network Access Disc and some games create isn't used by OPL to download the files you mentioned and so it's not needed. OPL's Network Update setting only downloads the CFG files regarding the games OPL finds.

It seems this website also offers CFG files but OPL's latest versions might support the games without them since all of these CFG files were tested in older OPL stable versions so they might not be needed in newer OPL stable and Beta's (the same may go for the CFG files downloaded from OPL).

Are the CFG files downloaded by OPL up-to-date?

What do you mean? How can a network configuration be created in uLE? Are you talking about uLE's PS2Net? Then, it's not used for that but as a FTP server to upload files from the PC to the PS2 and to download files from the latter to the former.

The best option for ps2 slim still use dvd r either plus r or min r with modchip , but find original optical lens for ps2 is really hard

Why so in your opinion?

I honestly prefer using SD card to load the games.
 
Speed and compatibility is best for me before optical lens is became weak after years of use in my ps2 slim 9 series

I can't find original optical lens here

I use ps2 slim 7 series now with opl 1.0 external
