Have you ever wanted to run your own code instead of the PSX BIOS/Shell at boot on an unmodified PS1 console? This tool allows you to convert PSX executables into a ROM file that you can use to overwrite a GameShark or similar PSX cheat cart's executable with your own. Once you flash your cheat card using a tool such as NXFlash with the ROM file generated by PS-EXE2ROM, the cheat cart will boot that PS-EXE automatically if the cheat cart is installed in a console and you turn it on.

Version 1.0.2 (11/25/2022)

Changes:

PSEXE2ROM now has 2 modes, specified by the first argument. The -d argument will output a romfile.dat file in the current directory, and a .rom file specified by the 3rd argument given. The -r argument will output only the .rom file asspecified by the 3rd argument given.

Rewrote documentation in markdown/html, and added more info about how to flash .rom and or use romfile.dat files.
