What are the differences between XEB+ and FMCB and can the latter be installed in every PS2 model and without having installed FMCB first (so, when hacking the PS2 for the first time)?

XEB+ is a dashboard, FMCB is an app which modifies the OSDSYS on the fly.
Both can be used to launch ELFs.
FMCB usually gets installed as a bootloader and initializes the console by itself.
The Xmas Showcase of XEB+ does NOT includes a bootloader, so using PS2BBL is the recommended way to run it.
You can run XEB+ from FMCB or OpenTuna too.
The method depends on the console's model and in the fact of your MC having MagicGate or not.

    @BigOnYa well, starting with, idk which emulator should i use for switch, i got a gtx 1650, do you know which one would it better for my pc?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    The switch emulators on pc rely on your CPU mostly, and they only use a single core, so GPU not as important as a good CPU. I don't use switch emulator, but many here do, and willing to help.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @K3Nv2 do you want to chime in, don't you use yuzu or ryujinx? Which do you prefer?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Morganna I'd say try them both, and see which work better for your setup, good luck, and have fun!
  • Morganna @ Morganna:
    i tried just yuzu so far, not even played, just open the game to see if it run
