I don't know how far modding discussion is allowed here and i'm fairly positive you can't discuss ITG hacking even though I have extensive knowlege on both.
Maybe you should PM someone who knows this kind of stuff

you can't play the official stepmania on a ps2. The closest you can get is "repacked" ITG....which supposedly isnt allowed on most ddr/itg boards...but theres a thread on how to do it in the ITG section.

You're kidding, right?
1) Even if you download the PS2 Linux DVDs, you wouldn't have any way to install it unless you modded your PS2. Secondly, you need a hard drive and a dedicated PS2 memory card for it (Otherwise the Linux installer completely erases your card). On top of that, even if you did get Linux installed and running, you'd need a special branch of StepMania coded SPECIFICALLY for the PS2. It's one thing to port code to and from Windows and Linux. It's a completely new thing to change a PLATFORM. The PS2 uses a completely different architecture, and NO ONE is going to recode StepMania from scratch just so you can play it on your Linux.
2) How is S-Video output on a video card going to help you? How is video output from your PC going to help you play StepMania on your PS2? Why don't you just get a video card and hook that to your TV? Or is that what you meant? |
