Can someone please convert this file to AR Max for PS2?

http://www.nfl2k5rosters.com/nfl2k11.html

I keep trying to convert this file and get it to open in FINN's editor as a PS2 Max Drive file but when I check in-game, it comes up as damaged. If someone could successfully convert it for me, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Great, thanks. It's been bugging me. Someone posted a while back on how to convert the files from zip to max and it opens in the editor as a PS2 max drive file so one would think that it would work in-game but it never does.

I can also tell if a file is going to work by the KB amount. If it says 625kb in the browser menu, it will work. Anything less, even 624kb, it wont.

Thanks again.

Great, thanks. Just one question - did you open the file in FINN's editor? If so, did you edit anything and save or is that the cause as t why it wouldnt work for me?

Thanks again.

'Welcome.

And, yeah, you have to open the file in Finn's editor if the conversion is to work. After you do the DAT-BASLUS swap in PS2 Save Builder, load the file in the editor, change something, then save it as a PS2 file. Refresher:

Nearly Perfect XBOX-PS2 Conversion Process

1. Download the PS2 Save Builder program.
2. Obtain a legit PS2 roster file.
3. Obtain the targeted XBOX file.
4. Open the ZIP file that is the XBOX roster and find the largest file (may a few directories deep) It will be a .DAT file.
5. Copy that file to any location.
6. Open the PS2 file in Save Builder.
7. You will see a BASLUS file. Rename the .DAT file to whatever the name of the BASLUS file is (remove the .dat extension also)
8. Right click and delete the BASLUS file in Save Builder.
9. Paste the new BASLUS (the old .DAT file) into the spot where the previous file was.
10. Save.
11. Open in Finn's editor and hit OK on the error that pops up.
12. Save.
13. Load with your flash drive and AR Max on the PS2.

I've never had to physically remove the .dat extension. I just take the copied dat file --> right click and rename it to the appropriate BASLUS file.
