I have recently gotten into PS2 homebrew and ordered a MX4SIO to play ps2 games on the microsd. however currently right now i cannot get games over 4gb that i have split into multiple parts and put in the root of my SD card to appear on OPL. i believe i am using 1.10 the version which allows you to save using MX4SIO. anybody know what is causing this trouble? i can clarify more if need be

yup.

Also, I was using the newest FMCB 9.66/OPL 1.2.0, formatted my SDcard FAT32 - 16 kilobytes clusters and to check compatibility list (wont let me post it). I think it's going to be a while before everything starts working. Sometimes even brand of SDcard is a problem.

They say a fast way for playing games is with the network adaptor using samba file sharing, might try that next.

it's very picky with SD cards.

but may I ask why you're using FAT32? I format mine exfat, games can go over 4GB, no problems....
