Emulation how to make .WAD into .ELF

[lynzhiii]

Hi chat. i help turning a .WAD file into .ELF
I simply tried downloading a ps2 emulator to play sly3 on my pc but the emulator says it either needs a disc file or .ELF.
Can someone explain this in the most simple term there is? Explain it like youre explaining a child please
This is my first time trying to download a sony-emulator. usually i go for nintendo games.

Probably because the disc image file you have selected is not supported somewhat. Try using ISO or BIN/CUE.

I don't need to spoon-feed you, I'm sure you can do plenty of research to figure out the problem that you're having. Its not that hard.

What SylverReZ is trying to say is you need to find ISO files. PS2's emulators plays ISO or BIN/CUE files.

You can't ask for them here, you need to find them yourself, as they are illegal to share.

First of all, a wad file has nothing to do with ps2: it could be a mod/add-on of Doom, Hexen Heretic or whatnot. Nah, it really doesn't have shit to do with it.
You're using PCFX2, I suppose: it supports ISO, BIN, CZO, CHD formats and something else I think. The former you can easily find online; the latter two are compressed formats.
Anyway, this is the psp section; the ps3 section is perhaps more appropriate for this topic.
