Have You Psp Owners Got This!?

[saintdragon]

ok, im quit exited about this, not to sure if you have seen this but its a programme on the psp which lets you play games which update your firmware with out updating your firmware, get it?

well all is explained on the psp archive here:

www.psparchive.de/cgi-bin/cfiles.cgi?0,1,0,0,7,237

maybe can some one give feedback on it as im not going to get a game anytime soon?

UMD Dumps of games requiring a higher firmware version than the current have always ignored your actual firmware version, but there is software out there now that does the same for actual UMDs.

Are you sure about the first part Squidge?

I have a 1.0 PSP and 1.5 titles (UMD dumps) dont run. Or do you mean it just doesnt update? (that's true).

 

[Squidge]

1.50 is too different from 1.00 as there's many things missing in the firmware. However, it works running 1.51 and 1.52 titles from a 1.50, apparently (not got anything needing >1.50 to check).

If someone managed to put the missing routines into a loader for 1.00 PSPs, no doubt it would work, but I don't think anyones going to do that.

Are game developers forced to put updates on the UMD? Or is it by choice?

 

[Squidge]

To be honest, I don't think it's got anything to do with the game developers. I think when Sony make the UMD's, they stick any updates on there as well when burning the disk. You don't have to modify the game to insert the firmware check, as the PSP just reads the "required firmware version" from the UMD when it goes to boot it. It's the same reason why it's easy to bypass.

If your interested, I think it's in the SFO file, so have a look in that file. or visit http://forums.ps2dev.org/

WRONG: .5 fps... means: a half fps
This make A REAL difference (factor 10 )

crap, sorry!!!

EDIT:

A WIP of an PSX / PSOne emulator for the PSP.
Currently it only runs a few PSX with .5 fps... so it's far from being usable at the moment, but it's a first release!

i couldnt see the dot, as i wasnt using my glasses...
