PSP homebrew: CTF gameboot from MS - Image 1 


Have you been converting your themes for Sony's PSP just so you can add various gameboots you wanted to use? Well, there might be couple of themes of the same nature out there, but there's a big chance that you guys might not like them.

Fortunately, NorthernFusion was able to develop solution for this predicament. This particular application allows users to run the CTF gameboot directly from the memory stick. What the coder did was edit a "clean
3.90 opening_plugin.prx so that he can safely load the gameboot from ms0/PSP/THEME/gameboot.pmf.

He then applied the opening_plugin.prx into the SchiDeLoaDeR theme and made a new CTF. Tadah! It can safely load it from the MS. If you guys manage to pull this little "trick" you can load the theme from the same gameboot.

Also, the coder noted that you can easily change it without converting each theme whenever you guys want to change the gameboot. In addition to this, NorthernFusion said that if there are people who are interested in making CTFs in the future, the opening_plugin.prx should be added so that it can be loaded from the theme folder.

This will provide as a "solution" and give more options to others. NorthernFusion actually made some sample CTFs. If you guys are interested to know what they are, you can go to the "Visit" link below.

I mean, is it so hard to edit a vshmain.prx so he really had to make it for us.

Man, I'm glad I'm not the one coding for you guys, ungrateful little brats who complain about an someone makes for them. And to the guy who said blah blah is illegal, you obviously aren't interested in this type of app, also it's not illegal, it only voids your warranty. *idiot*

It IS illegal. There are no legally-available tools that can make a gameboot.

And sharing the opening_plugin.prx would be illegal, too.

 » true...

it does void your warranty, and yes, it is illegal to share modified official files. the problem is that these ungrateful leechers cant figure these things out for themselves

 » hmm

ok using the official sony files and sharing them is illegal that means half the homebrew that make QJ pspupdates front page is technically illegal...

the point is if you don't wanna use it don't flame the creator just don't look at it at all, this has been happening alot lately. to many trolls wanting to badmouth decent homebrew apps then people wonder why the kick arse stuff rarely gets seen here on qj.

OT - i think this is cool though i won't use it, not cause of legal issues just cause i like my gameboot as it is and really don't wanna chance a brick from flashing again (tired of resetting my settings after a nand restore)

awsome app though keep up the good work, and ignore trolls there just ugly and want everyone to see them
