We all love homebrew applications. Despite having said that though, it's a given fact that not every single one of us can be as good as some of the devs here like Dark_AleX, Noobz, and others. Some want to customize their PSP units but are afraid to do so because of the lack of technical know-how about hexediting or patches.

One specific homebrew coder, Daveychan, understands this perfectly well and that's why he made his app so easy to use for us all. RCO Swapper is a handy utility that allows users to change the first row of of names on their XMB menu. And as we've mentioned, there is no need to run anything else or manually hexedit.

Running this app is actually very basic. All you have to do is put "RCO Swapper.exe" and your "topmenu_plugin.rco" file in the same directory. After that, run "RCO Swapper" then edit the menu names and voila! You're done. Lastly, Daveychan has a couple of reminders to those who want to give this a try:

• If you don't have the "topmenu_plugin.rco" file in the same directory, you get the boot.
• Yes, you can use a customized topmenu_plugin file where you have already changed the icons.
• You are limited to the same number of characters as the orignal text. For example, the menu item "Game" has four characters ("G", "a", "m", and "e"), you cannot use five characters for your new name.
• If the menu has eight characters, for example "Settings", you must enter eight replacement characters, that's one new character for each original character. Yes, using a SPACE is fine to fill in any un-used characters. For example, "Game" has four characters, so if you enter "Toy", you must use a SPACE character for the missing fourth character "e". If you don't enter enough characters, you get the boot.
• You can only do this one time! A directory called "Backup" will be created in the same directory as the program, and a backup of your original "topmenu_plugin.rco" is copied there.
• The "topmenu_plugin.rco" file now has it's menu names swapped. Use your favorite PSP utility to flash the new file to your PSP. If you are nervous about flashing it, simply replace the "topmenu_plugin.rco" file in your Devhook directory (for example: DH2f0vshresource) to test it out before you flash.
• As with any homebrew application involving flashing, nobody is responsible for things that go wrong with your PSP except you!
