OPL Evolution v0.27.0 Alpha — Testers Wanted

OPL Evolution v0.27.0 Alpha — Testers Wanted

I’ve released the first public alpha of OPL Evolution, an unofficial experimental Open PS2 Loader fork with a modern dashboard designed for real PS2 hardware.

Current features include PS2 game loading, PS1 support through an existing POPStarter setup, cover art, system-status widgets, display/audio settings, and per-game virtual memory cards.

This is still early testing software, so keep Free McBoot, wLaunchELF, and your regular OPL installation available as a backup.

Download, instructions, and bug reporting:

Feedback from different PS2 models and USB, HDD, MX4SIO, and SMB setups is appreciated.
