I just tested this with firmware 1.93 as well as firmware 4.89 the process was easy and the bios files extracted from firmware 1.93 worked with PCSX2 1.6.0 and duckstation however keep in mind that you need to use the fast boot option in both emulators or you get a blackscreen.

If you are using AetherSX2, make sure you use the second version of the Script, and that you use the "-patched" version of the bios. The developer of Aether (arbitrarily) blocked certain bios after we released this tool. Alternatively, use NetherSX2, which removes the arbitrary bios check on these bios.

Why does the program bring up windows command prompt? Isn't that suspicious? Now that my ps2 seems to be dying I am starting my emulation journey and have a few questions.
@EZOnTheEyes10 ай бұрын
a basic terminal window opening up with batch files is normal, terminals may seem a bit intimidating or confusing but you'll find this is standard in emulation for example, many emulators themselves run terminals at the same time as display windows (Ryujinx comes to mind) I and thousands of others using this tool can promise you our uploads at internet archive (in the description) are safe to use, feel free to run virus scans aswell if you're still worried.
