Hacking Homebrew PSP - PSone Emulation Hacked

[Sc4rFac3d]

It's released!

 

[Remy]

...now to wait for a tutorial on how to install this..

happy non-denominational holidays folks!

 

[Sc4rFac3d]

It's actually pretty easy, you just need to have hot shots golf 2. I'm playing MGS on it as we speak with everything perfect.

Just remember to use NTSC games and not PAL, because PAL games seem to have problems...

 

[Nenyana]

I can also confirm FF9 running perfectly, full speed, full sound and not even any slow down in the intro movies, general gameplay or battle gameplay. In short what you have here is a true portable full speed and sound Psx emulator that can play most of our own games. I just tried Final Fantasy Tactics and this is also running 100% mwuhha.

Awesome for the PSP users. Looks like the PSP keeps getting good stuff while the DS seems to only get crap nowadays.

If you use pspupdates.qj.net and maxconsole.net the readme's included tell all. As far as that "other thing" you need, check out the other name for a "a star that ejects some of its material in the form of a SMALL cloud and become more luminous in the process".org

Yeah, I'm going to vouch for the PSP thing. I went to EB yesterday to look for one below 2.80, but turns out everyone at EB manually upgrades every used one they get to 2.80. Bastards...

There's a 2.80 downgrader out now, as long as it isn't a TA-082

BTW, do you have to have the retail version of Hot Shot Golf 2 or an ISO? Or either?

 

[Shinji]

Just tried it out. This thing works PERFECT!! I used Suikoden and it brought me back. Yay for playing ultra-rare games of awesomeness that are PSX on the PSP. If anyone has any Q's about it, I might be able to help out.

To whom it may concern: Merry Christmas

 

[Gaisuto]

...okay then on the third I buy my PSP afterall XD Thanks for the heads up.

 

[bolton2]

crap i get my psp today for Christmas, i hope its not a ta 82 or whatever, knowing this, id like to play FFtactics.

only one thing though i already bought 4psp games
tales of eternia, legend of heroes, wipeout, and astonisha story.

if i can downgrade and then reupgrade to that new firmware, can i still play psp games that i buy, because i have no intention of downloading psp games

but psx games i have no problems downloading lol.


ps: i know peeps have mentioned web sites and such, but being that i have a crappy cpu with windows 98 second edition, im sorta scared as hell to brick a 200 dollar psp, so could someone point me to a certain forum with perfect instuctions on downgrading if my psp is a non ta 82 that people with no attention span could understand such as myself.


ty


edit: well i did some reading, and im hoping my psp will be a non ta-82 with 2.71, that way i gues i can use that downgrader to 1.5 and then update to that 3.02, but to be honest the instructions for all of this seem complicated as hell and all have options of bricking your psp, which kinda sucks.

i supose ill read more, but i hope that someone has instuctions that at least a 10 year old can understand, cause although im not ten, easy instructions would greatly help

 

[Vater Unser]

how do I install this thing?

will the custom firmware be emulated with DevHook or do I have to install it onto the PSP?

Awesome for the PSP users. Looks like the PSP keeps getting good stuff while the DS seems to only get crap nowadays.

hell no...

 

[WildCard]

Freakin awesome! Works perfectly!! Playing Vagrant Story right now. and DS in NO WAY is getting crap.

 

[adgloride]

It does look like you might only be able to play one psx game at a time. It uses the hotshot golf 2 files including the screenshot which you need to load. It doesn't work right with PAL games which I have loads of originals. You need to rip the NTSC games to .ISO format. Anyone know a good utility for ripping PS1 cds to .ISO format?

 

[WildCard]

I actually have more than one game on my mem stick and can play each one on its own fine. I used alcohol 120 to burn discs into ccd format. You then use the img to convert to eboot.

 

[Shinji]

You dont have to use the iso format, I used .bin files. .img files work too. Its in the readme saying just use the .bin or .img in its place.

As for only playing one game at a time, I say no to that.

heres my PSP folders

PSP
-GAME
--Suikoden
---PBP
---.dat
--Suikoden
---PBP
---.dat


and a note for those who are unsure, make sure you're looking at 3.02 OE-B.

 

[djgarf]

from what i have read on the max console forum just rename the .bin to .iso

What people mean when they talk about being able to only play one game at a time is the saving issues. Currently you can only save to one location which is the Hotshots Golf 2 save folder. This can be rectified by hex editing the eboot.pbp, you can also add your own backgrounds and icons for the eboots before generating the iso. You don't need the .dat file either, that is the manual. Some pal games do work and some have reported success in converting pal games to ntsc using a utilityn called pal4u2K.exe and p4upatch.exe. I am sure these minor issues will be fixed when Dark Alex releases further updates anyway.

 

[Shinji]

Thanks for clearing that up, I have not had enough time to get to save in any game today.

I'll def take note of that.
