Devhook v0.46


A new day and a new version of DevHook awaits us. First, a big reminder: This doesn't emulate firmware 2.80. Get that out of your mind. Second, about the news you've been reading on other sites: NO, 2.80 isn't decrypted, just extracted. Anyways, on with the update about Devhook.

The new version has a few major changes. And who better than Jeff Chen to get it translated! Here's a whole list of new updates:
  • Implemented the function for combining Flash emulation from the Memory Stick and the internal flashROM of the PSP
  • Countermeasure for Memory Stick file damaging bug
  • Fixed the problem that prevents returning from FW 2.XX to normal FW
  • Now forbids mounting "flash0:" in write mode
  • Major changes to the launcher menu
  • English launcher changed back to the original alphabetic folder
  • Added management functions for built-in FlashROM to the launcher (no function for installing into MS)
  • Added the auto launch time setting for the launcher > See "MS_ROOT/dh/autorun.ini".
  • Added the application for exiting from inside FW2.XX DevHook.
  • Added "umdciso_P47_SS_2000.prx" to resolve the problem the comma dropping problem of ciso. The setting is now like PRIORITY=47 , SHORT SLEEP,ciso buf=0x2000. Just replace the file "umdciso.prx"
One thing to note is that this version allows you to flash a part of the dump onto the PSP's flash, making emulation faster. But since the usage is still a grey area, I'd recommend you guys to not try it out, especially if you're using a custom firmware. We'll know more about it in the days to come...

Booster has also released the Devhook SDK, so if you want to contribute to the development of devhook, you can start as soon as you want! You don't need to use the SDK if you just want to emulate firmwares. The SDK is just for developers.

the flashing is just to make emulation faster
which is completly optional
if you don't select it, it won't flash anything

i've tried installing part of 2.71 into my psp's flash and it works perfectly.
note that i have custom firmware installed and had no trouble during the installation. :-)

I've been using 0.45 with 2.71 and noticed the home button doesn't work when in-game, can anyone check if it works on this version?
