So the Thread with the proof of concept running ps2 on vita from the chinese guy got taken down but i could save most of it here it is
bad translation of his post :
I play PSV version of Ricky and Tinker Bell Collector's Edition Collection, and Jack Dast Collection, Cunning Fox Adventure Collection found that the three collections are actually PS2 emulator shell, that is to say, can be used as a PS2 container, by my test put Ricky Tinker Bell 123 into the Cunning Fox Adventure can run, put into Jack can also run, that is, the emulator is universal, what is the game package are It doesn't matter what the game package is.
So how to run other PS2 games?
Just unpack the PS2 game image and convert the startup file like SLPS680.88 to .self file,
and pack the other game files into PSARC format, and modify the path to the startup file to read the game files and reconnect.
According to this idea PSV running PS2 emulator is completely feasible, I hope that the gods and goddesses to study in depth, have the ability to scientific Internet access, please forward to foreign countries, so that foreign gods also study.
The current problems for ordinary players are as follows.
1. there is no ready-made .self conversion tool, using the PS3 re-signature tool will have some problems
2. for the image file unpacking, there are some game files hidden such as Ghost Warrior 3, Frog Cavalry, the average person can not extract the game files
3. because of the need to package into PSARC game file paths have changed need to reconnect, for the huge number of files or the game itself has other package, may not support the package in the package read.
The above problem is the threshold for the average player, but not for the gods.
I hope more people will join the research, if I reconnect and finish the conversion I will be the first to release the resources.
Some Screenshots i could save there are 2 missing showing him running heracles chariot racing on his psvita :
my first experiences to recreate his PoC :
So i could manage to recreate his proof of concept only thing where i cannot success is to convert the startup file like SLPS680.88 to .self file via ps3 resigner (those numbered files are ps2 .elf)
maybe anyone got an idea or want to take a look at this proof of concept
