Hacking 6.xx PRO CFW Release Thread

[Mario92]

PRO-C is a way to play local-play games over the net.

So it's like adhoc party without adhoc party. It would be great but at least adhoc party takes lots of bandwidth what I have tested.

Since this is a thread about PRO cfw. Seeing as how there is a PRO-B and a PRO-C, does a PRO-A exist?

Yes... PRO-A does exist. It was the earliest release of PRO Custom Firmware.

 

[Just Another Gamer]

I can't wait to see what PRO-C improves over PRO-B actually. Still I think i'm gonna have some problems when it comes to upgrading my PRO-B10 to the new one.

 

[raulpica]

This has to be one of the greatest news evar. I can't wait for it to support PSP1000 and MHFU fully.

Makes you wonder why Sony itself didn't implement something like this in the first place but then again, it's Sony we're talking about - "BUY A PS3 TO USE AD-HOC PARTY! AND MAKE YOUR FRIENDS BUY ONE, TOO!"

Yes... PRO-A does exist. It was the earliest release of PRO Custom Firmware.

So any reason as to why it was abandoned? I can see the logic in calling PRO-C by a new letter cause it adds something really major; adhoc over internet.

No.. well I wouldn't say it was 'abandoned'. PRO-B is merely a bunch of new bug fixes/features added to PRO-A, its just as you said just a new letter to indicate a major release

EDIT:

Changelog
Beta 0.05 [R29]{Release Notes}
•Changed Chat System to Keyboard Input
•Added Experimental Matching Library Emulator (this causes a whole bunch of titles to become playable now)

 

[raulpica]

Why it doesn't support PSP1000 ;o; WHY

 

[Just Another Gamer]

Wait PRO-C doesn't have 1000 support? thats weird.

 

[Rydian]

1000 has half the RAM of later devices, and some CFW features will use the extra RAM.

 

[Just Another Gamer]

I know that but yea I guess somethings aren't possible with the 1000 model, bit sad though even though I don't own a 1000 model.

Well, I've talked on IRC to a guy named kakarotto which is admin on the Pro-CFW forums, and he said that on PSP1000 the only game working currently is God Eater (J). So it might be just a thing of different calls or something on the 1000.

I sure do hope so, I've got one

Apologises for the double post, but I think this should be in an entirely new post..

Stable PRO-C released

The first stable version of PRO-C has been released, which supports the Prometheus Online Client.

Changlog:
• Fixed several memory unlocking problems like the VSH exit crash (broken homescreen).
• Added high memory forcing support for SEN NPDRM EBOOTs (most useful in combination with Prometheus Online - www.prometheus.uk.to).
• Relinked the PSP online manual to the PRO CFW server.

This release is compatible with Prometheus Online, a 2g+ PSP online gaming service which can be found at www.prometheus.uk.to!

Updated the PARAM.SFO files to show proper CFW version.

Thanks for this information, I've uploaded PRO-C to Filetrip.
I'll update the files as more fixes become available.
(reports of bricks-deleted)

 

[Rydian]

According to this thread and some mentions on the google code page, there's bricks occuring.

[KevFan]

Ah then people should stay away from the new PRO-C CIPL installer for now.
I added the warning from Coldbird on the PROCFW Project Page

IMPORTANT! READ BEFORE USING!

At the moment people are reporting issues with the latest release (PRO-C) CIPL installer producing softbricks on 1g and 2g units.
We are investigating the matter! Until then... if you really need to install CIPL, please use the CIPL installer from PRO-B10 fix1.
Thank you very much. ~ Coldbird

Is it safe to upgrade the non-permanent edition from previous versions?
