Ps2mame elf download: The easiest way to install and run MAME games on your PS2

1. Download PS2 MAME. I found a number of different places that PS2 MAME could be downloaded from. The best download I found was "OPL Ready PS2 MAME", which contained detailed instructions and a pre made .iso file ready to add games to. I also found out that PS2 MAME doesn't have a browser, and will only launch games from the ROMS directory of the PS2 MAME ISO / CD. Max. number of romsets per CD - 30. This totally scuppered my plans to copy the whole MAME 0.37b16 romset to a USB stick and launch from there!

2. Download a complete MAME romset for MAME 0.37b16 aka MAME 0.52. I couldn't find a complete 0.37b16 romset available for download. After giving up searching, I found a .dat for MAME 0.37b16 and complete romsets for MAME 0.36 and MAME 0.72. I used CLRMAMEPro and the .dat file to the rebuild a complete unmerged 0.37b16 romset (Unmerged as I thought that this was the safest bet for getting games running). I ended up being around 30 individual roms short of a complete romset, and those 30 odd roms belonged to completely obscure games that I had never heard of, so at this point I decided that I had obtained enough romsets for the test.

3. Download a complete set of Samples for MAME 0.37b16. This was somewhat easier than acquiring the romsets as there are numerous MAME websites dedicated to MAME sample sets so I had the complete collection downloaded in no time. This turned out to be a waste of time...

The following tutorial uses Windows 10, but the PCSX2 installation and configuration are similar for macOS and Linux. First thing first: head to the PCSX2 website, then download and install the latest stable version of the emulator. 2ff7e9595c
