Thanks for adding the Steam Deck installation too! I'll be jumping on that this weekend! Thanks for all the hard work you guys are putting into this! :)
did you manage to make it work on the steam deck? nothing happens when I try to create a shortcut to the library and no idea where I can start the game from if not there
@@Nackols it's been a few months so you've probably already fixed your issue. But in case anyone else comes across this, the create shortcut buttons also weren't working for me after installing the games with the decky plugin. But after restarting the steam deck, they worked.
Oh yeah! The boys are back in town! 😎 I'm completely amazed by the great work you've done with Jak 1 & Jak 2. I'm so happy that people are finally able to enjoy those legendary games on PC 😊 Big thanks to the OpenGOAL team for making this a reality 🥳
I just wanted to say thank you for the tutorial but also the biggest thanks to all the opengoal devs and those supporting it. Seeing all the fanmade content and a tiny jak resurgance is something i never thought would happen.
I've wanted to do this for many years, but my PC didn't have a disc drive. I've had my PS2 disc basically ever since Christmas 2001. Just got an external disc drive as a gift from my Dad, and now i'm able to do this. You guys are actually genius. Thank you.
Thank you from the deepest of my heart for this project! I love the jak series and now, having a native linux version my steam deck is a dream come true! Bless the whole team for the hard work and keep it up! :)
This is amazing, the one thing I have always wanted is a proper shooting system. An added over the shoulder camera option would give so much satisfaction being able to pick off those guards with precise him
Seriously, you guys are absolute goats! I'm genuinely impressed by how good this project looks! You should consider making a custom game engine once you're done with this project.
This is amazing! Thank you and the team for making this. Jak 1 works perfectly for me, but everytime I launch Jak 2 the window opens for a couple of seconds and then closes again.
In the Decky loader on Steam Deck, I can only use one shortcut for Jak 1 or 2 installed in Game Mode but not have both shortcuts installed at the same time, is it possible to have both shortcuts enabled at the same time? This isn't a problem with the OpenGOAL launcher on Desktop mode because of the app. Also how do you get mods to launch on the Decky Loader plugin for OpenGOAL such as Texture Replacements? Loading it through the Launcher App on Desktop mode seems to be the only way to enable this.
A good little update for your ui would be some kind of status during the verify/decompile/recompile process outside just going green at each point just to let us know it's actually doing something. I had to use task Manager to just check the was activity. Either way amazing work guys awesome to play one of my fav games and have it look good on a 4k display etc. The PS3 version I was using is looking a tad rough now
Saw the Jak1 run at AGDQ this year, wanted to check the game out, and while struggling to figure out which version to play I come across this. Can't wait to start playing 🙏
Quick question, where would I get a manual download for the 'tooling' it doesn't seem to want to download it via the link supplied through the opengoal launcher.
love the work thats done but i cant wait for jak 3 to be finished so im trying to get it to work with what progress has been made so far by downloading from github and using visual studios and a fwe other things to play what you guys have made so far. ive spent 4 hours trying to get it to work and i just cant, im stuck on the 'task repl' command not working at all so i cant rebuild the game with the updates and such. ive tried everything. i wish it was a similar process. but danm do i love the work thats being done on these games, the series is my favorite and im so greatful its being done
Hey I was curious. I understand that you are trying to not only decompile the games, but you are recreating the proprietary programming language used to create the game as well. From what I understand (I'm not a programmer), it seems to be a really good language to code games in. Most of what I've seen on your website pertains to setting up the Jak 1 +2 pc port, but is there a way I could learn the OpenGOAL language and create an original game with it?
so what if my laptop does not have a cd drive to imgburn my disc with? am i really just screwed? cause that feels unfair as i am a huge jak series fan and was excited at the prospect of mods in it
I remember when OpenGOAL was originally released with Jak 1 support you had to create an ISO from the original black label release. I haven't paid much attention to the project since then. Is that still the case or is the Greatest Hits version now supported?
so I'm wondering how to update the games that I installed via decky plugin. I downloaded the launcher and tried to set it to the install directory of the games, but it doesn't recognize them. Will there be an update function for the decky plugin in the future? How can I update the games until then?
I have no idea what to do when it says install via ISO and i go to the link for the ISO thing u have in the description and I get even more confused and I can't do this
Fullscreen does not work. I can launch both games in windowed mode but they do not work fullscreen, they launch but the screen is black i only hear sound....
I was able to download, but when I am in the launcher, it says my system doesn't meet the minimum requirements? I know it does but it won't let me bypass. Any idea what is happening?
I guess the Decky Loader plugin doesn't work with Jak II yet? I see Jak 1 options but I don't see any Jak II options. EDIT: They updated it. Jak 2 shows up now.
@@ReadChainsawman Does it work and load for you? I did everything that it showed in the video and it installed fine but when I launch the game it doesn't load and just takes me back to the steam deck home page
It works well, but the Lightning Mole mission malfunctions. Yesterday the moles were not even there and on an occasion before then, two refused to go down the hole until I reloaded the save file. Other than that, it works well on my laptop.
Hi I've looked at your FAQ, but I can't seem to find the answer anywhere. I've currently got the OPENGOAL Launcher version 1.9.0 and I cant find a way to update it. It also seems to lack support for Jak2. Do I have to uninstalled my older version of the launcher and install your V2.4.09 off the website?
Everything seems to work fine during the installation but when it is finnished and I start the game the screen is just black but I can hear the sound, what gives?
Hello, my cpu runs quite hot when playing the precursor legacy around 60/70 degrees. When I’m playing games on steam with ultra setting I’m only getting like 50°. Is there a fix for this or is it same for everyone else?
Hi, i bought a few years ago "the precursor legacy" on ps3. It was the digital version so i don't have any CD. And my pc dont have CD-ROM port. This will work ? Or i need another computer and the CD version of the precursor legacy ? Thanks
I have a question for all these de-compilation projects. If they are native ports, why is there a need to require a rom? Is it a legal thing? Are assets extracted from the rom? Could the project technically work without the rom? Just me being curious.
Thanks for your video ! Is there a way to create a Jak direct shortcut on the desktop or add it to a non-steam game while skipping the launcher ? Thanks
The `.go` files are source code related, unrelated to the 3d models (I'm assuming this is what you're interested in). In the launcher, under Settings > Decompiler, you can enable different things for it to output (one of which is the `.glb` files, which are all foreground and background 3d objects) Once you enable it, on the game page click Advanced > Decompile, then Advanced > Open Game Data Folder -- you should find the files in `glb_out`. (You'll probably then want to disable the setting for future decompiles/updates)

I'd like to know this too, OpenGOAL in Decky is telling me both games are out of date but I can't see any option to update them
where i found file iso? sorry for my bad english
Why isn't Jak 2 launching on my steam deck?

@@nameshyde4263 It was running fine for me. Maybe you ripped the iso wrong?
It works well, but the Lightning Mole mission malfunctions.
Yesterday the moles were not even there and on an occasion before then, two refused to go down the hole until I reloaded the save file.
Other than that, it works well on my laptop.
where is a good place to find an online copy "for purchase"?
can't wait for Jak 3 one of my best game
keeps going guys
so if i need an original PS2 disc to make an iso file, why would i go through this process, instead of finding a used ps2 and just playing the game?
OOOUUH man i love This game! I played these games as a kid on PlayStation 2. Do you plan to add the rest of the games in the series in the future?
Do you have a link for download Jak 2 in French ? I use OpenGoal too, but just for Jake and Daxter, i can't find an ISO for Jake 2...
why does the fps counter turn on when he starts his?
We need something like this for the god of war games and ratchet and clank series
How do i obtain my iso if i had it online on the ps3? no disc.

donde descargo el iso o que archivos hay que usar?
Great work thanks guys! keen for jak 2
So I went to the website & it only shows downloads for the Linux version as well as the Steam Deck installer, no Windows version
I'm having problems with jumping on Jak 2 every time I jump I get the menu instead so how do I fix this
Can anyone help with the ISO process?!
It's asking for me to have one to select within the folder which I don't have..
Everything seems to work fine during the installation but when it is finnished and I start the game the screen is just black but I can hear the sound, what gives?
My pc doesn't install it, it says that the installer has insuficient privileges, and I should log in as an administrator but I already am
So if I got the rom, how would I go about doing this? I’m sorry I feel like I’m missing something
question from the future do you think there be any chance of porting it to m chip macs in the next 3 years?
i need help when i click install via ISO it takeds me to my file folder shit but theres no file so what do i do
after i click 'install via ISO' the file explorer opens up and wants a file name/destination...?

can you delete the ISO after installation?

they said just to Jak3 for now and mods and bug fixings
i think i can't use the PS3 trilogy version for making ISO ?
I have a gaming pc so I’m covered, but Mac?? Thank you. Means I can take this on the go
It's says need a ISO file to download the game, where can i get that legal ISO file??

really helpful, thanks
So I downloaded the ps2 ports that are available on ps5, if I just move the game over to a USB drive, are those the iso's

i am trying to get it to work i cant get it 1080p and i have a black screen how do i fix it
Steam Deck says Jak1.iso not found even though they are in the right place...
The process is case sensitive. Make sure it's "jak1" and "jak2."
Thanks for everything
does it matter if its a NTSC or PAL ISO?
Can't get the ISO, the link is broken. Help would be appreciated.
As the video explains, we do not provide the ISO. It's up to you to get it from a legitimate source (dumping a PS2 disc)
Is there an android version coming
how to get iso
type what you just typed into google instead of a comment lol

Did you find a custom launcher?
Is there any way of converting the .go files into a .obj or other ? Cheers
The `.go` files are source code related, unrelated to the 3d models (I'm assuming this is what you're interested in).
In the launcher, under Settings > Decompiler, you can enable different things for it to output (one of which is the `.glb` files, which are all foreground and background 3d objects)
Once you enable it, on the game page click Advanced > Decompile, then Advanced > Open Game Data Folder -- you should find the files in `glb_out`. (You'll probably then want to disable the setting for future decompiles/updates)
Is the game configured Keyboard controls as well or is a controller required?
Does OPENGOAL accept Iso files from the europe release of the games? Since somewhere I read it requires the USA release..
Asking the same. My European CD doesn’t work
Mine also doesn't work, either of you end up finding out?
@@OnlyJaze Same. 😭
I can't Install via ISO
the game just shows up as a black screen because of the resolution but everything else works fine
can you make an iso i you don't have one
doesn't work downloaded the opengoal wont even open
The game launch himself and then get closed 2 seconds later, IDK why especially since Jak 1 worked perfectly
Thank You
Hear a question by chance, do you know how to play it with a controller?
just plug one in, windows will install the driver automatically
