No offence, but you really shouldn't be uploading games you haven't even tested. If you had tested this for even 5 seconds you'd know that it doesn't work, at all, that the graphical issues are significant and the performance problems insurmountable. We appreciate your contributions, but they're no good to anybody if they don't work.

Sabin1981 knows what he is talking about.
Soulcalibur 2 and 3 are unplayable with the current means.

bro he told me that bonk's game unplayable i converted and its working fine without any issue
so.. there is always a chance don't give up
It's not working. Trust me. I told you "Bonk" wasn't working because it didn't load on several emulators I tried, that's just a typical "black screen" issue, and you used the oldest emulator template around to get it working. I hadn't even considered using that one 
This is something different. SC2 and SC3 don't work. Download it for yourself and see.
This is something different. SC2 and SC3 don't work. Download it for yourself and see.why don't you test it? We would all like to see a working copy. But, for those of us who actually tried to make this game with all 37 emulator versions that exist in the wild, it does not work. $ony hasn't released anything ps2 related since march 2018 with kof98um.
Bonk? No, it isn't. Don't lie. You may have passworded your PKG but that doesn't stop me from opening the contents, it just slows me down. You used Roguev1/Olympack, the very first template available, you even left in the homebrew TitleID for "Sly 2 Band of Thieves"
As for this? It doesn't matter which template it uses, as Stayhye correctly stated; the most recent available to us is KoF98UM and that doesn't magically fix the game. Rather than arguing with us why don't you download it YOURSELF and see for YOURSELF, since we already know.
Is there an archive of these ps2emu's that PS2 fPKG makers can "find" somewhere? Would be extremely useful!
A general question: have you guys found that a different version of the emulator "just fixes" issues with certain games, or are these emulators mostly released fix a given title?
From my experience, emulators are released specifically for a certain title - I haven't come across any game yet that has the same emulator, at all, that is used in other titles. However, there are definitely what I consider "Magic Bullet" templates which work for a majority of titles and fix issues in older or newer templates - sometimes Sony puts out an updated template for the same game, which fixes issues in a prior version. These are the ones I recommend sticking with for best results;
Rogue Galaxy v2 (and its predecessor Rogue Galaxy v1 or "Olympack" as it's labelled in Docs\revision.h) = definitely the most compatible and fastest. Less accurate though, so games can often show more issues or even not boot at all, stuck on a black screen after PS2 logo.
Star Ocean 3 = More accurate and slower than RG, less accurate and faster than Jak & Daxter v1/v2. This is a good middle ground, something @stayhye and I have had happy results using.
Jak & Daxter v2 = The most accurate and, kinda almost, the slowest template yet. This is great for games that aren't system intensive but do show severe graphical/etc issues in earlier templates. Also great for loading games that refuse to load on earlier templates, like Rogue, which show black screens after the PS2 logo.
King of Fighters 98 Ultimate Match = Most recent template we have available to us, highly accurate and with the included fixes it's *great* for 2D/sprite-heavy titles. I've used this to fix several 2D fighting game collections, specifically anything from Capcom or SNK. I haven't had great success using it on 3D games though.
If we eventually do see a 5.55 kexploit released (which I'm starting to doubt, to be honest, too many scene devs have outright stated we shouldn't wait for one and how its only use would be piracy so they don't care) then I already know several awesome dudes who are currently sitting on a proverbial goldmine of unreleased PS2 Classics -- so that'll be a WICKED FUN day :biggrin:
