autops2

this readme is far from done btw!!!

As seen on reddit!!!

Automatically boot into PS2 disks using PCSX2!!

Made with the power of sheer anger. Sponsored (this is a joke) by CEX in Zaandam, NL.

Installation

  • TODO: does deck come with python3?
  • TODO: it definitely doesnt come with pyudev for sure
  • Install pcsx2 from pacman (NOT FLATPAK!!!)
    • preferrably, set up rwfus beforehand instead of disabling the read-only mode.
  • Clone the repo to ~/autops2
  • TODO: add pcsx2 to steam
  • TODO: get pcsx2 non-steam gameid
  • TODO: edit script to the id

Quick/temporary method:

This method will not persist after system reboot or after you close your terminal

  • Open your terminal of choice
  • Navigate to ~/autops2, probably by just doing cd ~/autops2
  • Run python3 autops2.py
    • or run nohup python3 autops2.py so you can close the terminal without worrying, might not persist going from desktop to gamemode though

Service method:

This method makes the autops2 script run on startup (and easily restart it)

i think install.sh does this for you but just in case:

  • Copy the autops2 service file to systemd stuff
cp autops2.service /home/deck/.config/systemd/user/autops2.service
  • Reload the units
systemctl --user daemon-reload
  • Start the service
systemctl --user start autops2
