Looking to remap the controls on your PS2 or emulator? This new tool by pelvicthrustman can get the job done!

By entering remaps as cheat codes, pelvicthrustman has crafted a pretty handy Windows-based tool that allows you to remap controls for games on PS2 or PCSX2. Below are some more details and a text-tutorial from the developer!

PS2 Controller Remapper is a tool designed to arbitrarily remap a PS2 game's controls using cheat codes.

Remapping codes can be used on either a real PS2 or PCSX2.

This will not work with all games but compatibility should be better than 90% based on analysis of about 200 games.

Thanks goes out to @No.47 for both suggesting the project and doing a lot of testing for me.

How to use it

Opening an ELF

• In order to remap the controller PS2 Controller Remapper must analyze the games executable ELF file, you can do this by dragging and dropping the ELF file or by clicking 'Browse'.
• The game's ELF file can be found by looking for SXXX_###.## in the game disc's root directory or .elf elsewhere, where Xs are letters and #s are numbers.
• Some games have multiple ELF files - if you receive the error "Unable to locate controller routine" search the disc for .elf files and try one of those.

Remapping

• Select the input to change and scroll through the list of inputs to select what to replace it with
• PS2 Controller Remapper makes sure that every input can be mapped to only one other input - this is by design

Options

• Selecting the 'Use memcpy' checkbox reduces code length by ten, however it also reduces compatibility
• Selecting the 'RAW Code' radio button generates codes in unencrypted 'RAW' PS2 cheat code format - compatible with ps2rd and Codebreaker 9.3+
• Selecting the 'PNACH' option generates codes in PCSX2 cheat code format (also compatible with ps2rdmod)

Finally

• Hit the 'Remap' button, copy or save the code and enjoy!
