Welcome to the home page of the 'PSXGameEdit' project!

You are visitor number since PSXGameEdit was first released on Jan 9th 1999.

PS2GE development is still under way!  PS2GE currently supports the .xps/.sps format (GS2 v2, AR2 v2, GS/XPort v2) Expect a 2002 release!

Having trouble using PSXGE? Please see Geoffrey Wagner's excellent Quick Start Guide!

Want additional hardware support in PSXGameEdit?

Below is a list of the hardware which is directly supported in PSXGameEdit and which is not yet supported (left column). Direct support means that you can use PSXGameEdit to do the reading and writing of memory cards, so you don't have to use the official software to write a game save to your memory card after you've edited or converted it with PSXGameEdit. There are three categories in the list. The first (currently supported) is the hardware which is already supported, the second (working on support) is the hardware which I have and I am working on implementing direct hardware support for. The third is the hardware which I don't have, which makes it impossible for me to do direct support for. So, if you want support for some hardware which is in the third category or which is not listed here, you are very welcome to send it to me and I'll do support for it (if possible). As always the contributors (right column) will be named and acknowledged for their help in making PSXGE better! Contact me on psxge@mail.dk

• Reads and writes Virtual Game Station Memory Card saves (.vgs)
• Reads and writes X-Plorer/X-Ploder, Cheat Machine, Game Shark, Action Replay, Cheat Factory etc. single game saves (.psx)

Required hardware:

To utilize the PSXGameEdit program fully, you must have some hardware to do the actual communication with the memory cards. Currently the program supports the following hardware:

• PlaySaver PC-MemCard interface. Information on building the hardware is free and can be downloaded at members.aol.com/PlaySaver
• DexDrive by InterAct, which is a commercial product. Further information can be found at www.interact-acc.com
• X-Plorer/X-Ploder cartridge from FCD, info., ROM-upgrades and cheats can be found at www.x-plorer.co.uk
• PSEmuPro, the PlayStation emulator project for Windows9x computers. See www.psemu.com for more info.
• A Caetla-flashed cartridge like an Action Replay, Game Wizard, Game Enhancer, Golden Finger etc..
• Bleem!, PlayStation emulator. Nice alternative to PSEmuPro. See www.bleem.com for info.
• Other cartridges that reads and writes .psx files.

Please note that PSXGameEdit can read and write memory cards directly using the DexDrive, Caetla/EMS/Action Replay flashed cartridges & PlaySaver, but for other hardware, PSXGameEdit depends on the hardware to do the read/write operations between the PC and memory card.

If you don't have any of the above, I highly recommend building the PlaySaver which is very cool! The version that I have built looks like this, for building questions and schematics, please see the official PlaySaver site:

PSXGameEdit is developed and coded by Lars Ole Dybdal and you can contact me by sending e-mail to psxge@mail.dk
