[spoiler][title:Plugins F.A.Q.][list]
[*][b]Q - What's a plugin and how do I use it?[/b]
A - A plugin is a .PRX file that adds additional functionality to your PSP.ÂÂThey can cheat, take screenshots, save/load state, stream video, remap your controls, and lots more.ÂÂA plugin's installation instructions usually require you to place it's PRX file into your /seplugins/ folder, and to modify one or more of the text files in that folder.ÂÂThere's three text files, one for VSH, one for GAME, and one for POPS.ÂÂYou edit whichever file for the section you want the plugins to work under, like this.
[color="green"]ms0:/seplugins/joysens.prx 1
ms0:/seplugins/RemoteJoyLite.prx 0[/color]
The first line is for the joysens.prx plugin, and the 1 indicates it's enabled.ÂÂThe second line is for the RemoteJoyLite.prx plugin, and the 0 means it's disabled.
[*][b]Q - When will plugins be activated?[/b]
A - A plugin will be activated the next time it's section (VSH/GAME/POPS) starts.
[*][b]Q - What are VSH, GAME, and POPS?[/b]
A - VSH refers to the PSP's native OS/Menus.ÂÂGAME refers to PSP games (and hombrew).ÂÂPOPS refers to PS1/PSX games.
[*][b]Q - A plugin isn't working for me on a 6.x firmware, what do I do?[/b]
A - Things changed between 5.x and 6.x, not all plugins work on 6.x.ÂÂSometimes you can find an updated version of a plugin that will work, but other times you'll have to use a different plugin to do what you want.
[*][b]Q - I have a lot of stuff, can I organize it?[/b]
A - If you want to rearrange the order of things in the game list, you can use [url="http://www.psphacksmods.com/2007/08/23/psp-content-manager-v18/"]PSP Content Manager[/url].
If you want to sort things into folders, use the Game Categories Light plugin.ÂÂAdd/enable the plugin, then make folders in your /ISO/ and /PSP/GAME/ folders, named [color="green"]/CAT_(category name)/[/color], and place your stuff into them.ÂÂThe Game Categories plugin can work three different ways, be sure to check the added options in your system settings to customize it the way you like.ÂÂNot all homebrew works properly when placed into a category folder (or even when using certain category view types), though.
[*][b]Q - Can I enable/disable plugins without having to hook up to a PC and edit that file each time?[/b]
A - If you're fully-hacked, then yes.ÂÂShut the PSP fully down (hold the on/off switch until it cuts off), then turn it back on and immediately hold the R trigger to access the recovery menu.ÂÂYou can toggle plugins from there.
