Loading .IRX from computer to PS2

[ghostboy78]

Ive had a hard time with this and now its starting to make me mad...

My EE program is trying to load two .IRX files from my computer so that the pads can be used in the program. Does anybody know what format these should be loaded in?

so far ive got "host0:\\PADMAN.IRX";

but the above doesn't work. I'm using X-Link to run my .elf

Thanks, but it isn't what i'm trying to do. I want my .elf file to load the .irx file from my computer to my PS2 using X-Link.

Use "host:PADMAN.IRX" and remeber that PADMAN requires SIO2MAN to be loaded first.

this doesn't work neither. My two .IRX files are in my C:\ directory also if this helps solve my problem.

If you are using PS2Link, the easist thing to do is to put the IRXs in the same directory as the ELF you are launching and use the relative path "host:<filename>".

Otherwise "host:c:\\padman.irx" or "host:c:/padman.irx" should work.

Neither of what you said worked :/ I dunno whats going on so heres some source.

Code: Select all

    sceSifInitRpc(0);
    while (sceSifLoadModule("host:sio2man.irx",
			0, NULL&#41; < 0&#41;&#123;
	printf&#40;"Can't load module sio2man\n"&#41;;
    &#125;
    while &#40;sceSifLoadModule&#40;"host&#58;padman.irx",
			0, NULL&#41; < 0&#41;&#123;
	printf&#40;"Can't load module padman\n"&#41;;
    &#125;

It seems you're using SCE's sdk, not ps2sdk. I'm afraid you won't get much help here.
