This has probably been asked before, but I would like to know if there is a work around or if I'm just poo poo out of luck. Popsloader 3.71 thru 6.00 is said not to work on PSP3000s. Is this true? No way around it? A game from my childhood (Digimon World 3) only seems to work under very specific circumstances that it is apparently notorious for, according to Google. Any way to force that to work or could someone at least explain why this model of PSP is incompatible with the pops? I should clarify: I've actually gotten it to work somewhat with 3.40 and 3.52 (more luck with the former), but highly documented freeze-screens or problem areas are still present, possibly making the game unplayable, where I've seen it reported that 3.71 fixes those issues entirely. I'm running Pro C CFW 6.60. Shoopuf fucked around with this message at 09:15 on Jan 20, 2013 |

Because some games do Weird poo poo™ that the original PlayStation itself could do but the emulator cannot. (In some cases, things that not even the PS2 could do, and it had the actual PlayStation hardware inside it. Xenogears.) Sony altered the PoPS library to fix games that went up on its service (like, again, Xenogears), but unless they plan to release Digimon World 3 on the Store (and what are the odds of that now) that isn't likely to happen. But also the PSP 3000 has some different CPU microcode related to file authentication, and probably the old pops.prx files trip it. Some dude on YouTube has decent evidence he got it to work but he won't release his work as a patch (only as a  ) because gently caress the police I guess.

I wanted to try out that slowdown-removal patch for FFT WotL last night. The link in the OP was a bunch of  , but there's a much easier way. Someone made a working PPF for the ISO, you can find it at romhacking.net. HOWEVER, I had to dig through several threads on FFhacktics to find out that it only works on EUR/PAL ISOs. Apparently, the person who created the PPF had a mis-labelled ISO.  Knowing that would've saved me an hour of downloading/transferring/troubleshooting.E: By the way, using 6.60 Pro-C is the easiest poo poo ever. The fast recovery takes less than 10 seconds. I see no reason whatsoever to use those perma-firmware solutions anymore. Ofecks fucked around with this message at 20:21 on Jan 20, 2013 |

The downside of permanent solutions is that they apparently carry a higher risk of bricking, it really doesn't seem to be an issue anymore but was when some of these CFWs were new.

Yes, two. Lemme just quote from the LP thread:Krinkle posted:Until I got to the end and noticed I could post I believed this thread WAS archived. I think it's fine as is. Is there nearly enough work done here to try to freelance it and get paid to do an English translation port? Searching for this game's name leads straight here, to fan sites that directly link to this page, or to the sequel's thread that also links here. Are they/have they going to/already notice/d that there's a huge interest? Fedule posted:There are a whole bunch of reasons besides demand why there will never be an official localization, but if it's a fan patch you want, a bunch of us are working on one that's based on this here LP. Krinkle posted:I'm pretty sure googling for this name also leads to that page unless there's another group. The page I saw mentioned the LP and said they were basically done with the prologue. Fedule posted:Nah, we aren't Team Zetsubou and they aren't anything to do with this LP. Apparently they've been doing their thing for a year and had no knowledge of the LP, which explains some of their more... interesting... creative decisions. Anyway, we're not them. We're... well, we don't have a name yet. Our PR team isn't entirely on their game. Also we don't have a PR team. It's on the list.

I've got an old PSP-1001 that I modded to some version of M33 a few years ago (I lost the charger and am waiting on a new one now, so I don't know which). I noticed the OP says not to use M33 now, what's going to be my best bet after I get this beast charged and back on?

Update the PSP to Official Firmware 6.60, put the 6.60 PRO-B10 files (linked in the OP) in your PSP/GAME Folder on your Memory Stick, run the PRO-B10 Update, then run the CIPL Flasher since you have a 1000. You're done.

There's not much difference besides that adhoc-online server (though it looks like thats down)., but might as well go for newer. P.S. for anyone who was avoiding the newest version of Pro-CFW because of that bullshit redirect to ads before downloading (e.g. me, I'm still on B10); thats gone now, thank christ.

Anyone else having trouble with emulating patched SNES roms? Specifically, I am trying to play the Zelda3 Parallel Remodel: http://www.romhacking.net/hacks/956/ But the emulator just loads a black screen.

Check it against other emulators. Could be you fed it a ROM in the wrong format or something. If it IS a problem specific to your emulator, it might just be something you have to deal with, because I can't imagine there will be many updates to PSP-based SNES emulators anytime soon.

Does 6.60 allow you to transfer PSN games from the PS3? I have 6.20 PRO-B9 right now and it's telling me on the PS3 that I need to update. EDIT: Also, what path do I need to take from here, since I guess everything post-6.20 requires something special be done to it?

They used to be poo poo, but they've gotten progressively better ever since the community at SMWCentral have been pushing people to actually put effort and good level design in. I'll just give you pretty much the best one there is: http://www.fpi-productions.de/tsrp1.htm Made when many hacks were still iffy, it's still the best one I know. Disclaimer: I've been out of the loop for the past few years. Really nice graphic swap that keeps the same feel, great level design, interesting world structure, and not ball crushingly difficult or anything.

The standard New PSP custom firmware installation is Update to 6.60 > Install Pro-C2 > Party Time. Give going straight to 6.60 a shot. If you can't update from the Network Update in Settings, either turn off the custom update in the CFW Recovery Menu > Configuration (press Select to get that far) or just go download 6.60 from playstation.com. dont be mean to me fucked around with this message at 12:25 on Feb 10, 2013 |

Oh, awesome. Pro-C2 can't load legit PS1 games right now. Just crashes out with error code FFFFFFFF after the warning screen. Some dude on the issue tracker won't shut up with "go back to Pro-C fix3", like that will either fix Pro-C2 or make the links to Pro-C fix3 magically reappear out of the aether. So yeah, if that's a dealbreaker maybe hold off on the update until that gets worked out. EDIT: Pro-C2's change is a fix for something in NoDRM. The procfw issue tracker has no corresponding issue for this change. Could be it was completely behind the scenes, but either way, if you play PS1 games from the PSN on your PSP at all and you can find a copy of Pro-C fix3 I'd fall back unless you actually have a NoDRM issue. dont be mean to me fucked around with this message at 16:57 on Feb 10, 2013 |

Ineffiable posted:So interesting scenario. The problem isn't that you can't access a Japanese PSN account from an out-of-region PSP - you pretty much just type it in and go - the problem is that there's no mechanism for using multiple accounts simultaneously on the PSP. I don't know if there's any way to do this easily even with CFW.

You can access the Japanese PSN from a foreign region PSP. I've written some stuff about it here, which worked the last time I ever actually bothered to switch the account on my PSP (which was like 2011 I think?)

For what it's worth, it seems to work with Media Go, but when I tried signing in on the PSP (using the same account/pass) it just gives me this account/pass is incorrect, and I already deleted the previous account. I think CFW also strips the account activation so transferring them to a PSP with Media Go (from an account that has obviously legally purchased on a PS3/PC) works.

The closest we got is a homebrew that makes it quicker to switch accounts. Basically it just copy&pastes your license info, so you don't have to connect online everytime. Still annoying, but better than nothing, I guess.

Is it a bad idea to buy a used PSP-1000 these days? Since they're the oldest models, I wonder if any PSP-1000 has that much longevity or if they're all likely to break and die simply from being old and used. Anyone know if they're made to last well?
