Extract text from LilyPad configuration files (LILY)
To convert LILY configuration files to another format, you need PCSX2 or other Settings software.
To convert other file formats to the "Emulator Configuration File" file type, you need software like PCSX2 or a similar tool.
The .LILY file is a specialized configuration document created by the LilyPad plugin for the PCSX2 PlayStation 2 emulator. These files store crucial customized game controller settings, key bindings, and button mappings for various input devices, including keyboards, mice, and gamepads like the DualShock 3 or Xbox 360 controllers. They are designed exclusively to be read by the emulator software.
Because this is a proprietary, closed settings format, it suffers from severe compatibility limits. You cannot simply open a .LILY file on a smartphone, a standard web browser, or modern word processors. Sharing customized controller layouts between different machines or emulator setups can be highly frustrating if the other user does not have the exact same hardware and plugin version. Standard online converters fail to process these files because they are tightly coupled with the emulator's internal logic rather than standard document or media standards.
Converting a .LILY file to a standard text format like TXT, INI, or JSON makes the raw configuration code readable outside of the emulator environment.
Convert.Guru analyzes your LILY file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
