A program to convert PlayStation2 Memory Cards into SoulCalibur2 Conquest Memory Cards

this program can run from the SDCard of an SD2PSX/PSXMemcard Gen2 or from an USB storage (FAT32 or EXFAT)

The program will work from both retail PS2s and from System246 units (System256 users: PS3/PS4 USB joysticks will be recognized if you don't have the ps2 joystick port adapter)

What card ID is the output?
 
In case anyone is getting a white screen when trying to play with a cloned conquest card, it might be an issue with the encryption.

Potential workaround:
  1. Transform the card again on SC2Maker
  2. Right after transforming, check integrity, freshly converted cards should never have checksum mismatches
  3. Once you have a freshly formatted card without checksum mismatches. Go back to the game
  4. Once the game reaches the "success" screen, activate the dipswitch 1 to go into game test mode
  5. From testmode, go to bookkeeping Data Clear and use the last option at the bottom of the list. This will reset all settings! Configure stuff again (like free play)
  6. Now run back the game, let it go beyond the "success" screen, the option you just activated on test menu doesn't actually reset the conquest card, but rather enables a setting in ACSRAM that basically schedules a card reset for the next game start-up
  7. Try it and see if it works, if it doesn't. Report back here or on GitHub

I've retweeted it also and spread the word on a few Discord servers. Hopefully the word gets out better.

Can a memory card that has been converted to a Conquest card be converted back to its original PS2 memory card?

Yes it should be possible

Although you will need to do it with some homebrew application, ideally, memory Card Annihilator by ffgriever

For some reason a retail PS2 main menu can't format a Conquest card back to normal MCFS

Although I would recommend not to do this process repeatedly.... Memory cards use flash memory as storage. So the amount of writes has a direct impact on lifespan
