FileAssistant v0.05


One of the must-have pieces of homebrew, FileAssistant, has been ported to the TIFF Exploit by Freeplay. Although it's one of the older versions (v0.05), this was the only version whose source FreePlay could find. The original version was coded by Lin J.R, in case anyone's curious.

While not being as slick and shiny as the newer versions, it did the job, and wow! While talking to FreePlay, he revealed that the speed of this version is amazing. He actually had to slow down the dialogs, just to make them readable. Here's a few more screenshots in case you want to check out the GUI

This version allows you to write to Flash1 only. Looking at all the homebrew being released for the TIFF exploit, expect to see more ports and scratch-made homebrew in the coming days. For now, enjoy this latest homebrew.



Update: Just a few hours after the release of the first public build, FreePlay has told me that he has updated FileAssistant. Turns out, he's correct. The new version allows you to browse your UMDs and he has also got the battery meter working. Plus, while talking to him, he also revealed that he has polished the dialogs since they were a bit problematic. To download, check out the link below.

Damn these apps are really coming thick and fast now arnt they, we could be looking at maybe getting a back-up launcher sometime in the future at this rate.

The colors in the screenshots aren't the real colors. Taking screenshots from FileAssistant is... bizarre.

It organizes your memory so u can change names or dealete files without going to the pc or mac.

it just pretty much moves files u normally cant get to... pretty useful when u save something to the wrong place, need 2 copies, etc.

 » Compatibility

Tested (as far as I know) on 2.71 and 2.80 so far. Works on 2.71 in Devhook. Also works on Epsilon, which apparently has a few glitches - e.g. pressing Home crashes the PSP rather than exiting the program.

free tool that can unpack rar files

as someone who has released stuff myself that may be used from a linux box, I always use .zip for public consumption

this is a real breakthrough for the TA-082 owners out there..

my very first piece of hombrew ever was the first file asistant.
its really useful if u use it correctly

   by nicko01 (Unregistered) - 2006-09-18
 » file unzipper

we need a file unzip utility! thats what i really need.
then i could download a new tiff homebrew, unzip it, and move the files to the right place, instead of doing it all on the computer.

 » cool, but...

 » It doesnt work for me

I try to use it like all the other 2.80 homebrew and it doesn't work for some reason it just stays frozen or somethin in the part where you just bearly press X on the file Assistant and there thats where it freezes it doesnt even run the program

   by cheese (Unregistered) - 2006-09-18
