OK, I decided to write a guide.

Things you will need:

-Basic knowledge on English / Conhecimento básico do idioma inglês.

-Ability to run homebrew (Free MCBoot, modchips, Swap Magic, Action Replay MAX and CodeBreaker allow you to do this)

-A USB Storage Device formated as FAT32.

-A USB Storage with 4 GB of capacity if you want to run MGS3: S Disc 2's ISO Image off it, or A PS2 Phat with Network Adapter with HDD installed with at least 3 GB of space available.

-Open PS2 Loader 0.9.3 with cheat engine integrated.

-This file https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bw-CX ... DM1TDFJMGc

1 - Download this file (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bw-CX ... DM1TDFJMGc). Extract the "Open PS2 Loader" folder inside of the archive to your USB Storage Device.
