Can someone tell me how do I set up backgrounds (not game icons) for games in Webman folder?
I'm trying to figure it out 2nd day already, nobody on PS Hacking discord could provide any answer, and I didn't find an answer on google.

Alternative file names for icons and background

/dev_hdd0/PS2ISO/<filename>.PNG <= Used as ICON0.PNG when the game is mounted
/dev_hdd0/PS2ISO/<filename>.PIC0.PNG <= optional
/dev_hdd0/PS2ISO/<filename>.PIC1.PNG <= optional
/dev_hdd0/PS2ISO/<filename>.PIC2.PNG <= optional

How they are recognized? If by filename, then how? By GameID (i.e "SLUS12345.png")?
Both methods are supported.

If the TITLE ID is included in the file name of the ISO, the cover is searched in the same folder or in the centralized repositories. If the TITLE ID is not found, the cover is searched in the same path of the ISO as file name + .JPG or PNG (.iso extension is optional)

I don't believe I understand it correctly.
I'll just say what I did and someone please correct me:


I have <Grand Theft Auto Vice City.iso> in /PS2ISO folder.
Added <Grand Theft Auto Vice City.png> in the same folder, as the game icon and it works properly.
Tried adding <Grand Theft Auto Vice City.PIC1.PNG> in the same folder, and it does not work. The background does not appear.
Tried making a subfolder so now it's /PS2ISO/Grand Theft Auto Vice City, and copied all game related files there. No effect.
Dropping a file simply named <PIC1.PNG> does not work either.

What should I do at this point?

Try PIC0.PNG

    and i know what you may be thinking, "why become an adult at 21? doesn't that mean that banging an 18 year old would be illegal?"
    first of all, being in a relationship with someone who's 18 is technically ok, as long as it started when they were 18, but the age gap is still weird depending on how old you are. besides, the age of consent differs between different states

  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    also my reasoning for adult age being 21 is because the reason that's the drinking (and now smoking) age is because it "gives them more time to think rationally and not drive drunk"
    so you should have that extra time to mature and think rationally before going to serve in the military or vote

  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    tl;dr the "adult" age and the legal drinking age (and voting age) here in the US should be the same

    It's all good no one pays attention to the law anyway lol
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What about making kids wait till 18 or 21 to drive? And yea is messed up, you can join army and die for your country at age 18, but you can't drink alcohol or smoke a cig til 21, is ridiculous

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    If someone is in the military they should be allowed to smoke and drink at 18.... Would help drive recruitment lol

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    We all know they do and will anyways. I think laws prevented them only pushes them to illegally do it. Even tho if was legal, most prob wouldn't even bother. Not a big deal or risque if its legal, no fun.

    That's why some kids don't mind having a rap sheet or two just so they never get drafted

  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    also, i think the voting age should match the adult and drinking ages too, because by the logic of giving them time to mature and think rationally so they don't drive drunk, then they should also have that time to mature and think rationally so they can think for themselves

    because self deprecating humor is important, as long as it doesn't turn into self hate. because you can't really make fun of anyone if you can't even make fun of yourself
