if your controller is not working:
go to pcsx2 from desktop then settings - controllers- make sure play1 is setup dualshock 2 and controller mapping to steam deck virtual gamepad ( SDL-0)
I did do it and still it hasn’t worked it turned out that i have to change the game settings and force the sdl so i can use the controller
And i got another stupid thing that my games audio stopped working all of a sudden to fix it i hade to launch the game and desktop mode and use the keyboard and press the windows button and go to the Audio section in the start menu and click on PCSX2 audio and unmute it
@@ranikutbican you go into more detail I’m having trouble myself
Last week I followed your ps3 guide, I was hoping for this, thank you! The collection grows even more thanks to you man!
Enjoy!
Ed, thank you so much. I had to factory reset my SD because EmuDeck left so much clutter that it was impossible to uninstall. I much prefer the standalone method for installing emulators. You’re the best!
This is why RetroDeck is used instead.
Thank you for this! I would love to see you set up all of the standalone emulators. This has made ps2 much more usable for me. Thanks!
Another great video which is easy to follow and help avoid those Emudeck problems. I'm also going down the 1 sd = 1 system route now although some will need a few more cards 😏 Keep up the amazing work. It's truly appreciated 👍
Thank you! Along with your PS3 guide, your videos are life saviors. I'd love you did the same for PS1 DuckStation.
Super informative video, very clear.
Thank you so much for this guide. Really helped a lot and makes it so much convenient. Now that I got a hand of things and was able to do it more precisely.
I can finally replay the .hack games in this thing. Thank you.
You're very welcome!
Thank you for your work! This is was awesome :)
great video, thank you :)
You are the best! awaiting for the Teknoparrot emulator guide ✌🏻✌🏻
Coming soon!
Bruh amazing tutorial you rock so much ❤
No problem. Enjoy !
good tutorial, thank you.
nice video bro!
thanks for guide !
What is the difference between this standalone emulator and the standalone emulator that emudeck installs?
also, just adding the pcsx2 to desktop as a shortcut from steam essentially works as the standalone emulator, even though its still through emudeck. so those that already have emudeck, just do that if you want an easier way to access its settings.
Great video thank you. I’m wondering if you could tell me how to add a rockstar launcher game to the gaming mode like you did for those roms?
I have GTAV, RDR2, Max Payne 3 on rockstar and would love to be able to launch them from gaming mode (and have the artwork) without having to open the rockstar launcher first.
Cheers!
great video guide!!! thanks a lot.!!!! question how do you save a game .iso that has two discs?????
Will definitely try this one Ed
Hope you enjoy. thanks
I think that steam rom manager would be great to include with these guides for adding and removing games to the emulator
Thank you! Please Show Xenia Canary Next, I have struggled with that one since i got my deck, it worked for a brief moment with a EmuDeck update but broke with the latest updates, also I have YuZu installed via EmuDeck, a guide on how to backup it and install it as standalone would be awesome
Fantastic tutorial! Although I have a big emulation library with different systems, this is very helpful!
i havent updated emudeck since last year and it works great
I was literally thinking this, a lot of people complain that things go wrong when they update emudeck but surely if it's working fine as is why update it if there's a risk of something breaking when updating
Ive been using Emudeck deck and Ive never had any issues with any game.
When I get the time I'll probably start jumping on the standalone stuff! I'm not patient enough to move everything right now though! xD
yeah man its worth to switch to standalone when you have time. EmuDeck still have issues with new hot-fixes
It is literally the same exact thing. I thought he was gonna talk about Batocera.
You don't really need to add the ROMs individually to Steam. PCSX2 has a Big Picture Mode, so you can just add "-bigpicture" and "-fullscreen" to the Launch Options after adding the emulator to Steam.
great tips. thanks
Does anyone know where to go to get ps2 bios he only showed 3 folders but one of his other videos it showed the bios founder had 7 folders in it
Just got my steam deck and need to try this. Gonna get tekken 4 working if it kills me.
Please provide a walkthrough on Dolphin and Suyu using this method when you can!
Hey ED4T. My problem is this on Stream under properties of PCSX2 is this
Target: “usr/bin/flatpak”
Start In: /usr/bin/
I have no idea what to do with these so I’m stuck. When I go back to game mode the hand doesn’t work. Pls help, I feel like I’m so close.
thank you for this! emudeck has been a mess with the latest updates and this is a better alternative
Enjoy !
any way to set up pressure sensitive buttons using a dualshock 3 on pcsx2? i've been having so much trouble with it.
I’m not seeing mmcblkop1 when setting up the wizard?
Why is that??
i get so much input lag it is unplayable do you know any tips?
The controller doesn't work for me either, I did it as you wrote. And how does the forcing work?
I cannot find "removable devices." It's just not there. How do I find that? You said it was on the internal SSD so I presume it's not an external one I have to buy.
I've never had a problem with emudeck..no idea why anyone would set it up manually when emudeck is basically 1 click setup
I cannot seem to add my games to steam. I don’t even see that choice. But I was able to follow all your steps up until that point. How can I fix this? Thank you!
Sometimes the standalone is worth it...... today it takes forever to let emudeck work...... there are some benefits for stand alone based on that...... plus when you have lots of games the update on there takes forever so it's much easier to go this route I feel and I have 1 micro sd card per console.... took a while to put it all together but i figured it out.... so this simplifies my life a lot
1 micro sd per console. I like that!
@@henryblazer20 well its not something I came up with like that...... I tried getting many consoles on there and because of how many games I had I emudeck stopped parsing due to the number of games i had on a 512 gb card..... so I decided to go around that issue...... 1 micro sd per card simplified that issue because now 1 card is fully deticated for that 1 console which means skies the limit..... plus I have many more games incase I get bored with the 1 that I originally have..... and I have a micro sd card case that holds all the cards and are labeled so I know which card is which so there is no guessing involved.....that 31 micro sd's just for the consoles and 12 handheld systems and that also doesnt factor in the latest games that you can get from steam directly factored in... on a good not that's quite a bit of entertainment realistically.... I try to maximize what I have especially when I travel..... since that's when I use it these the most....
I installed brand new EmuDeck yesterday and got 2 hotfixed update but still have problems with EmuDeck. I have no idea when they will eventually get better. I just prefer to have standalone for now since I only play 1 to 2 emulators at a time on deck.
@@ED4T me I play 5-6 different systems.... gamecube, xbox, ps2, psp, switch, and dreamcast
@@mannyva01Bro do you even play the games? What do you with so many games at once? I have like 50 roms and still don’t know what to play. Always hard to decide lmao
Would this tutorial works on PCSX2 on lenovo legion go which it is using windows11
Hey I it won’t work for me. I followed step by step and it’ll begin to start the game then revert back to Steam deck OS. I’ve changed proton to as early as 5.0 and still nothing. Any suggestions??
Can you play from desktop mode? If still not then you have incorrect bios files or bios files are in wrong folders.
Amazing tutorial
How do you launch in big picture mode with pcsx2?
Its kind of tedious adding every single game and having to change it each time. How can i sue the nightly build on emudeck pcsx2???
great video boss!
Appreciate it!
The white cover looks dope ngl
thank you
It’s a shell and I wanna do it so bad but I have to wait for the Oled shells to drop 😭
Maybe do a button swap first lol.

Can you make a video about MAME soon please? i have been so frustrated as the controls don't work all of a sudden.. will greatly appreciate it if you do.. thanks..
I followed your steps and my controls on my steam deck oled do not work when i start a game? Do you know a fix for this?
go to pcsx2 from desktop then settings - controllers- make sure play1 is setup to dualshock 2 and controller mapping to steam deck virtual gamepad ( SDL-0)
Hi there
I followed the steps but anytime I launch it it seems to launch then quickly exit back to the steam dashboard
This is for both in game mode and desktop mode. If the files are in the wrong order would I need to start over again?
most likely you have wrong bios files. or incorrect game rom format
Do ya use CSS loader my guy? It's a really nice decky plugin that can make your interface so much nicer :D
yeah it looks really cool. I used it for a while. thanks for share this
where tf do i find compatible bios with the game i want to play
Can you dowload the bios and the roms straight from the steam decks browser ??
Yes
@@Kyle-Marxluxia thanks fren !! I appreciate the response
Isn't there a way to remove or chose to bloat or not to bloat emudeck? Should be a feature...
How to get the white steam deck
You just made me buy a steamdeck instead of any other hand-help with this. I wanted to play retro games (mainly PSP \ PS1 \ PS2), but not all retro consoles are worth the pricing when you can literally get THIS beast. Thank you so much for detailed settings, it really helps noobies like me!!!
Steam deck is the best overall device. You can play most of systems on it. Enjoy your gaming on deck !
I hope you got the OLED one.
can you do a tutorial on how to add texture packs?
I tried many videos and it still doesn't launched.
Edit: 4:59pm Eastern time. I finally did it. I took a nap earlier and came back to it. Woot Thank you. Now I can play God of War 1 on my steam deck along with other games. Woot! Thank you.
Only possible reason is you have wrong bios files
Still the games slow either in emuodeck or with stand alone emulator
How do i add HD texture packs?
Can you please show how to do the same for PSX Emulation?
Sadly my controller is not working i can't seem to able to press any button in the loading screen for the games
go to pcsx2 from desktop then settings - controllers- make sure play1 is setup dualshock 2 and controller mapping to steam deck virtual gamepad ( SDL-0)
@@ED4T if its possible can you do a tutorial on how to activate sheets on PCSX2 on the steam deck because sadly all the tutorials online are not clear on how to do it especially the RAW decoder app
I used EmuDeck to play Kingdom Hearts 2, It crashes at the opening sequence everytime. Sorry this isn't relating to the recent emulator for PS2, but have you heard of any way to fix this? I've looked everywhere.
i have no issues with it. you should try a different rom.
@@ED4T I usually get mine from the same site and they work so I have no idea why this one didn’t work. The PS2 games for me on steam deck are either a hit or miss, they work or they don’t work. Only my Silent Hill 2 works. I have no clue what to do.
Im still waiting mi steam deck from ebay😢, usps says "delayed for some unforeseen reason" 11 days 😭
hav u gotten yur steam deck?
@@K_ingS__ Yes, I was lucky
Thank you hero!!!
no problem enjoy !
Where can I get games?
does this method works for suyu?
Emudeck sucks it keeps crashing. I have to keep uploading the roms over and over it takes forever.
It's pain to use sometime.
Using the Steam Deck Desktop mode is a pain in the ass to control, how do you do it so well?
Just plug mouse+kb
I’m confused…. Does emu deck still good or no please help
if you just want to play 1 or 2 emualtors on steam deck at one time then go with standalone emulator. less hassle to deal with
My game plays in slow motion????? Please help
Make sure fps limiter is off and intental resolutions set 1x
So... No performance boost? Yeah sorry I'm not going to go through all this just so I don't have to open emudeck and press update every couple weeks 🤣.
I have almost 200 games in Emudeck already, and it's organized nicely there.
I'm 100% with you: No extra performance? No dice.
U cant tinker with the graphics live in emudeck like he does in standalone emulator. Thats why its better
Has anybody gotten a ps5 controller to work with the PSX2 Emulator? It would be amazing and would allow to upscaling while docked on a 4K TV.
I use my DualSense wirelessly with PCSX2 on my main PC and it works flawlessly, so it should work great on Deck, too.
I’m brand new where do I get roms and bios files
Google is the best way
Faz um vídeo assim para Gamecube e PSP, por favor.❤
It only shows the word DECK
So the Steam Deck really is the ultimate emulation machine then ?
yeah man. unless you want ps3 and xbox360 then go with windows handheld pc 8840 or z1 exreme chip. they can play ps3 & xbox360 games .
thank you now i can play god of war
enjoy !😊
Some games are running slow
make sure you fps limiter on steam deck is off. also you can low the resolution to native or 2x that will speed up the game.
I'm having a hard time running NFL street 2 at 2x. Runs slow. @@ED4T
This is the same fucking thing is using duckstation through emudeck 😂
I think I will stick to emudeck lol
I don't know about you guys, but I think emudeck is never worth-it. It soo easy to setup the emulator by ourself
