PS2 mini-OPL v1.0

@Krah I renamed conf_hdd.cfg to something else. Booting from build 1697 which makes those file and +OPL partition. I compare them and both are encoded by windows1250 with windows return symbol (0A0D), so both are identical besides of course OPL resources path. Also both have second line empty.

@alexparrado Thanks. ^^ Could You explain me what is "dataOffset" constant? It is where XLF will be put?
I hope @El_isra it will. ^^

Sure, thanks. Alex Parrado have the same model as me, test the same files and the same game, so in theory all is is ok. And in theory problems lie in APA header which I'll test on another partition meanwhile and with uLE ISR HDD when/if updated.

Thanks anyway for Your time. ^^ This should deal bootable partitions to OPL once and for all.

PS: In release section, it is worth to add also "OPL-Launcher.xlf" (or just with name "boot.kelf").

@Krah Maybe also worth to add to readme something like this:
Code: 
This launcher reading "hdd0:/__common/OPL/conf_hdd.cfg" and launching "$OPL/OPNPS2LD.ELF".

You can inject OPL-Launcher into APA using i.e HDL Dump:
```hdl_dump.exe modify_header hdd<Disk Number>: <PP. Partition with PS2 game>```

But to do so, You must also prepare few files for injection process:

1. Signed executable which You can make by this application:
https://www.psx-place.com/resources/kelftool-fmcb-compatible-fork.1104/
```kelftool encrypt mbr OPL-Launcher.elf boot.kelf```

2. "system.cnf" file which contains:
```
BOOT2 = PATINFO
VER = 1.00
VMODE = NTSC
HDDUNITPOWER = NICHDD
```

3. Standrd PS2 game icon. Just take one from game save and rename it to "list.ico".

4. "icon.sys" file, which is not binary like in Memory Card case but fully text one (replace title0/1 by target game):
```
PS2X
title0=ICO
title1=SCUS-97113 (NTSC-U)
bgcola=0
bgcol0=0,0,0
bgcol1=0,0,0
bgcol2=0,0,0
bgcol3=0,0,0
lightdir0=1.0,-1.0,1.0
lightdir1=-1.0,1.0,-1.0
lightdir2=0.0,0.0,0.0
lightcolamb=64,64,64
lightcol0=64,64,64
lightcol1=16,16,16
lightcol2=0,0,0
uninstallmes0=
uninstallmes1=
uninstallmes2=
```

Can confirm @Krah 's miniOPL works along with following setup:

Unforunately this didn't work for me with Twisted Metal Black Online. So far that's the only game I have tested. Upon booting of the game, it showed me the debug colors which is weird because I didn't have it set in the configuration. It was then followed by a black screen and got stuck there.

Those debug colors don't come from OPL but ELF loader in OPL launcher. It seems you're experiencing same behavior than Berion.
 
In my case, after black hole, it always returned to storage browser in HDD OSD.

Thanks for the lib hddosd-headers and uLE ISR HDD. I'll test them tomorrow with various of games.

Could You both confirm that You have below version of hacked HDD OSD? It comes from HDD Utility Disc v1.10 hacked installers, from SUDC4 which is ultimate hack of HDD OSD and the only one fully compatible with FHDB. Maybe it is why it works for You @alexparrado and doesn't for us. Just blind shot...

Or maybe for some reason not all games can be launch by this way, for some reason, but You said that the same Ico works for You, so rather not.

Ok, I have injected XLF into APA to another PP partition and behaviour is the same. Green colours then back to Browser.
When I deleted config files (besides "conf_hdd.cfg") it stops to go back to Browser, instead hang on black screen forever.

So something here is related to OPL config files. Would be great if You share with us @alexparrado Your all cfg so maybe we can track the issue, also would be nice if You test if those games stops booting after removing/renaming configs to reproduce my issue which also confirm that problem is related to cfg.

Ok, I'll share my config files in a few hours. Does OPL work when you run it from uLE?. Could you please double check you're using Krah's OPL build supporting argument passing.
 
How can I check it? "OPNPS2LD.ELF" is the only file on that name which have in "__common/OPL/". I don't using shorting app names and normally I do not keeping them there (all my homebrew are in "PP.HOMEBREW/apps/<full app name>/<full app name and version>.elf" like i.e "Open PS2 Loader v1.1.0 beta 1697.elf"). If this is what You have in mind. This file comes from archive with latest resources (R3) which Krah attached and XLF is the one which You attached and said it works (I didn't use latest pre-release version from github because I didn't see point to sign it and replace it until this problem be solved ^^).

Ok. So, does __common/OPL/OPNPS2LD.ELF gets properly launched from uLE?
 
These are my configuration files. In my case, OPNPS2LD.ELF, conf_game.cfg, conf_network.cfg and conf_opl.cfg are in +OPL and conf_hdd.cfg is in__common/OPL.
