PS2 How can I batch copy my OPL ART folder to internal HDD via PFS Shell?

Hi all,

I have a PHAT PS2 with an internal HDD. I use OPL to boot my games and everything seems to work perfectly. Today I've been messing around with art work and I discovered an app called OPL Manager for my PC, which downloads it all automatically.

I'm trying to find a way to speed up the process of transferring my ART folder (from OPL Manager) to the internal HDD of PS2. --

Firstly I'm fully aware that I can copy the ART folder to a USB thumb drive and then manually copy it over using something like uLaunch. However I find this to be slow and tedious.

I currently have the internal HDD of my PS2 connected to my PC via a USB dock thingo. I've successfully been able to access it via PFS Shell (command line utility).

I've discovered this command:
Code:
pfs.bat hdd4: +OPL *.JPG
which will successfully copy over all .jpg files in a directory. BUT the only issue is that it copies them to the root of the +OPL partition and I need them in the +OPL/ART directory.

Does anyone know of a command to achieve this?

There isn't much information online regarding PFS Shell and the information that does exist is mainly regarding POPS. No one really talks about transferring over OPL part.

Regards!
 

Hey man, thanks for the reply. I've been messing around with it now for a few hours and I just can't seem to get it working. I have extracted all the batch files to the OPL Manager folder (where all the OPL folders are located ART, CFG etc.). Then when I right click on the PFS Batcher to run it as administrator, it tells me I don't have permission and access is denied (or something along those lines). This happens after it tries to scan and find the PS2 HDD. Then if I try and run the batch file again, the CMD window just flashes for a split second and disappears.
 
I actually never used this program. However it must be something on your end. I just opened OPL Batcher for a try and it works (either opening it as admin or normally. In the second case it requests admin privileges after the window appears).

Maybe you've not accessed windows with the administrator account?

I think I figured it out. I was originally trying to run it from E: (which is where my OPL Manager is installed). -- When I run it from a folder on C: then it seems to work. Very strange indeed... Either way thank you for pointing me in the direction of this script. It does exactly what I need :)
