Are you on a Mac and want to convert PSX games 2 PSP or PSP ISO games to iso,cso,or DAX?

Well with PrometeusPro you can, and it's easy to use!

Converting ISOs:

PrometeusPro gives you 4 options:

Converting ISOs is as easy as starting up the program.

First, you decide what you want to convert your ISO too (CSO or DAX).

For this tutorial i am going to convert Tony Hawks Underground 2 - Remix to CSO

Just hit the open button and select the ISO you want convert (If you don't have one, you can download a program to make your own GOOGLE THEM, sorry I don't have a link at the moment and don't feel like looking).

Now it should show that when it is done converting it will be Tony Hawk Underground 2 - Remix.cso

CSO_selected.jpg


Now all you have to do is hit compress, and wait.

That's it!

Converting to DAX or back to ISO is just as easy. Just follow the same steps with a different mode selected. :smile:

How to convert a PSX game to PSP:

For this tutorial i will be converting tomb raider.

Insert the PSX game into your mac. It should come up like this (with a different # of course):

PSXgame.jpg


Open up PrometeusPro and select "PSX -> PSP". Then press the "Rip" button. It will ask you what you want the name of the game to be and where you want to save it.

While it is ripping the disc, the memory stick light on the psp starts to blink (i personally like that little touch).

While your PSX game is ripping, take this time to find or make an icon, background, sound, icon video, and a title image. Make sure the images are PNG files.

I will be using these images:

Background

TR3_BG.png
480x272 pixels

Icon

TR3_icon.png
140x80 pixels

Title

TITLE.png
310x180 pixels


Now the game should be done ripping, and you should get this message:

PSX_id.jpg


Click ok and get ready for the final steps.

If you do not see your game in the PSX image box like this:

bin.jpg


Click open and select "your games name".bin

Now it's time to add the images (and sound/video files if you have them).

Just click the open button next to the box of the image you want to add.

It should end up looking something like this:

add_images.jpg


If you want to save the final eboot to a different destination you can change that by hitting the save button next to the "save as" box.

Once you have the images the way you want, hit start.
