where to find info on PS2 executable file format?
hi there, I asked how to start writing a PS2 emulator and I got links to PS2DEV site, but that gives info on PS2 programming, how can I understand the COMPILED BINARY executable format for ps2 programs in order to emulate them??
coz when u wanna emulate a ps2 prog, you only have the binary, where can i find info on analyzing that binary?? thanx

By using a disassembler to convert it to assembly language.

Re: where to find info on PS2 executable file format?
is it really possible to emulate 100% of the hardware?
if it is, what is the problem of the emulator programmers out there? lack of info?? or maybe it's against the law of SCEE?

It's really hard to emulate all the 100% of the hardware, because the documents about the PS2 hardware doesn't actually explain all the features, but only the "needed" ones (needed by the game developers).
