Question about the PS2 8 MB memory card layout
Posted: Wed Dec 30, 2009 11:07 am
hello i have a question about the standard ps2 8 mb memory card, i read from ross ridge document that the files uses clusters, but so far (testing it out on pcsx2 generated memory cards) the files are are on in a contiguous order just reading the entry is suffice, so my question is if the cluster that it points to isnt empty ex 2 clusters for one file, how do you know how many bytes to read from the first cluster, and then the second? i previously thought that one cluster just points to like page_len*pages_per_cluster of data.
Update; Sorry about that, it seems that the cluster are really just page_len*pages_per_cluster and every cluster points to the new data of the same size; the error was that I didn't read the entries in the FAT table properly, leading me to get invalid clusters number. But it works now :D
