Hi everyone,

I installed FMCB 1.8 to my ps2 MC yesterday. During the install, I had put the BOOT.ELF for ULE as well as SMS Media Center.

I am successfully running psx backups using this method as well.

However, my question is with the MAIN MENU of the FMCB.

ULaunchElf shows up within the main menu when I boot FCMB, but my *SMS Media Player* DOES NOT! How can I get this to show up?

I can run SMS by holding L1 during boot, but I would like it to appear as a selectable option from the main menu as well.

**NOTE, the elf file I have is SMS.elf (notice .elf extension in LOWERCASE)

I had fired up the config tool for FCMB via the menu option and changed the paths to recoginize the lowercase extension, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to make it appear in the main menu!

If anyone can point me in the right direction, it would be appreciated. AND if there is a way to do it without manually editing the .cnf (I have no idea how to do this) that would be best :)

Maybe someone can correct me if i'm wrong but i'm 98% sure the full file name has to be in caps e.g SMS.ELF for it to show up in the menu
Hope this helps




If it aint broke....mod it! ;)

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it has to be all caps as well. I had changed all the FMCB extensions within the program and CNF files to the lowercase 'elf' extension and still no luck.

I had a friend give me another SMS file, this time with the elf extension in UPPERCASE.

I have not tested it yet, but I will be later tonight. I'll post if it works or not in case others have the same question.

To add new apps , go to FMCB Configurator -> Configure OSDSYS->select a free position and input a name and browse for the elf . Then you return to the prior menu and 'save CNF to MC0' and they should appear in the list .


Me , i'm trying to launch Codebreaker or Action Replay as elf's , but they don't seem to work

I don't know what version of Codebreaker you're using but i can run versions 7-10 perfectly straight from FMCB Menu/Browser but as for the Action Replay elf it won't work as a stand alone elf file as it needs the files on the cd to work properly. Some of the best mind in the homebrew scene have tried to crack it but with no success. Bottom line - i'd give up trying to use the AR elf and stick to CB.
Try this thread HERE it contains cb v9.22 which has been cracked to allow the use of unofficial Day 1 files.
Hope this helps
