* Drive state of sceCdStandby has been changed to PAUSE: Check iTV * Added support for fonts stored on the HDD unit (root of +OPL partition hdd0:+OPL/) and USB device (root of device mass0:/). * Game history will now be updated the 'towers' behind the 'SONY Computer Entertainment' boot screen should continue to grow. * Renamed compatibility modes to have actual names. Simply put your ISO files in your CD and DVD folders and OPL will find them. * ISO disc images no longer strictly need to be named in a special format. * Changed the delete and modify VMC controls to be disabled instead of hidden, when writes are disabled.

* Renamed 'Enable Delete and Rename' to 'Enable Write Operations'. * IP address configuration can be set automatically with DHCP, although it is still recommended to reserve an IP address for the PS2 in the network because the DHCP reservation will not be ever renewed while in-game. * SMB server can now be specified by its NetBIOS name.

* Added a new network update mechanism, which allows game compatibility records to be automatically downloaded from the OPL-CL service. * Fixed HDD corruption caused by deleting a game from the HDD unit. * Fixed the problem with the HDLDump server being difficult to shut down properly. * Improved stability, design and UI responsiveness. * Network settings are now saved in opl_network.cfg. * Better error reporting and help messages in general. * Infamous 'Blockhead Grande' theme bug SQUARSHED! (Themes should now get loaded correctly, regardless of display settings). * GSM moved to Game Options menu since its a Per-Game option now. * Improved the behaviour of the auto-refresh option. * Fixed renaming functionality for USBExtreme games. * Fixed support for SMB usernames and passwords that are longer than 16 characters (limit extended to 31). It's to emulate DVD-DL support, for DVD9 rips (games with their 2 layers compacted into 1). * Changed 'Disable DVD-DL' to 'Emulate DVD-DL' to better explain what it does. * Improved reliability of some CDVDMAN functions, for more consistent behaviour. * Improved reading performance of the cdrom device. For games that need OPL to store its modules elsewhere, to avoid a memory conflict.

* New compatibility mode: 'high module storage'. * Mode 7 'IOP threading hack' removed, as the new streaming mechanism has taken care of all related issues. * Added a workaround for some clone network adaptors. * The CallBack Timer (CBT) setting now uses a standardized value and was merged into Accurate Reads mode. * Added Accurate Reads mode, for emulating the reading speed and behaviour of the CD/DVD drive. * New super-slim EE core, making mode 1 (Alt EE core) obsolete. * New PS2RD Cheat Engine port by Doctorxyz. * Removed obsolete Compatibility Modes and needless GSM video modes. * VMC Fix - Slot2 should no longer clone Slot1 and vice versa * Improved performance and stability of SMB support. * Eliminated the need for user-configurable delays in USB support.

* Updated USB drivers - support drives greater than 1TB but less than 2TB in capacity, plus better reliability. * Added support for the DTL-T10000, for debugging. * Kinder, gentler, and hopefully better IGR mechanism * New CDVDMAN streaming mechanism for better performance. (I'll bring one to the next NAVA and show you how easy they are to use.)ДЄnd even though they won't make a copy that will run without a system modification - Alcohol, Nero, or just about any other CD burning software that will make a 1:1 copy and not get hung up on 'rights copy protected' software will do fine.ДЄND (lots of and's) I only suggest the 'archive' grade CDRs due to my experience with backing up PS1 games and recently discovering that they all (about 100 of them on several different brands of 'standard' CDR media) failed after about 7-10 years of storage.ДЄt least a product like that has a 'guarantee' of non-corruption/failure for x amount of years.After nearly 2 years, v0.9.3 of Open PS2 Loader (OPL) is finally out! If you've never soldered anything to anything.

You'll need either a mod chip, swap disc, 'magic finger' expansion port device.

Nothing can copy the verification track on a pressed PS1 CD. I'm pretty sure software like CloneCD or Alcohol 120 allows you to make perfect backup game and you don't need modchip.
