Hacking UMDGen problem

[Just Another Gamer]

That's it? none of those files are required for it to run. You can try Profile>Start Profile>Hit ok and see what happens. It'll log the stuff that happens while it tries to run although in the end UMDGen will pop up a window saying your running a debugger and you need to cut it out. However since you can't even run it you might find a error or something listed in the log.

Out of curiosity is the program meant to freeze up while doing the profile test?

It shouldn't freeze or at least it didn't for me. I have no idea why it would.

You have the files needed to run it yet the program closes even when you attach a debugger.. *shrugs* I dunno what else to say. This whole issue sounds like something a antivirus program would do.

Well I tried disabling the anti virus but that didn't make a difference at all. Its very weird.

 

[Vanth88]

What anti virus program do you use? KIS?

Microsoft Security Essentials. It came with my laptop but I also use Malwarebytes

Yeah none of that would mess with the app either welp I'm out of ideas but in the mean time there are alternatives to UMDGen. In fact I'd highly recommend ISO Tool which is an app specifically made for the PSP. You can find the last version here http://wololo.net/talk/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=9644

It lets you browse the ISO, extract files, decrypt files, patch files, shrink isos etc. etc. etc. in fact it does everything UMDGen does but way more.

Yea i'm out of ideas as well. I have been using ISO Tool and it is great but I would also like something on PC just because I usually do all the compressing and stuff on PC before moving it to my PSP but I guess I have to live with UMDGen not working.

time for a pro to chime-in.

first, you dont say if it dies when you run it, or when you >use< it.
UMDgen 4.0 has a bug that makes it crash if you save an iso with a very large number of files.

other than that, it uses a lot of 32bit DLL's - is your o.s. a 64bit one?
kernel32.dll
user32.dll
gdi32.dll
comdlg32.dll
winspool.drv
advapi32.dll
shell32.dll
comctl32.dll
shlwapi.dll
oledlg.dll
ole32.dll
oleaut32.dll
winmm.dll
oleaut32.dll

now having said that,
i use UMDgen every day, and i dont even use Windows.
i run it on Linux with the WINE shell.
UMDgen is very compatable so unless your missing one or more of the above library's i cant see what's wrong.

 

[steve-p]

double-post.

 

[steve-p]

btw, dont compress or decompress with UMDgen - there is another bug there.
only save uncompressed.

do all compress-uncompress functions with Yacc - and dont compress higher than level1

i have found another similiar programm like umdgen, write this wqsg umd on google and there are a lot of links i don t know if they may be posted

 

[steve-p]

wqsg is weak compared to umdgen,
umdgen is far more powerfull than most people know.
you can save the fat table, manually edit it, then load it back again for example.

 

[Vanth88]

I would have suggested wqsg but the problem is it only lets you extract files and replace them but thats it so it lacks a lot of features. You can use another program to compress called PSP Iso Compressor but again UMDGen removes all of useless files like updates and stuff so it saves even more space.

Unless there's another program out there UMDGen is the best.

BUT WAIT A TICK! have you tried using the older versions? http://filetrip.net/psp-downloads/tools-utilities/download-umdgen-350-f6754.html thats 3.5 and you can find all of the older ones on there too. Try those out and see if they all fail.

I have tried all the older versions and it hasn't worked for me either.

Uninstall SP1?

Or try -

---------------
1. Open your Start menu and click Control Panel
2. Browse to "System Maintenance" then "System"
3. In the left panel, select "Advanced System Settings" from the available links
4. You should now see the System Properties Window, which will have three sections. The top section is labeled "Performance" and has a "Settings" button. Click this button.
5. Select the "Data Execution Prevention" tab.
6. Select the option which reads "Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I select"
7. Use the "Browse" button to locate the executable file for the application you were trying to start when you received the StackHash error, and click Open to add it to your exceptions list.
8. Click Apply or OK to commit your changes.
