Customize Your PSP Font Today! |
Ó

Here comes the tutorial:
Requirement:
- PlayStation Portable (Firmware 1, 1.5, 2.0, 2.01, 2.5, or 2.60). On PSPs with firmware 2.0+, eLoader is required, as well as GTA for 2.01+.
- At least 4MB free space on your memory stick for the customized fonts.
- FileAssistant 0.4 (I only found v0.3 in our old file section.)
- A Hex editor program on your PC (like UltraEdit32 or WinHex)
1. Copy files from your firmware
To mod the font of your PSP, you will have to first export 2 files from your flash1. You can use FileAssistant to do so. Run it, go to Disk, and change to PSP BIOS 1. Then enter folder "registry", select "copy", and copy both system.dreg and system.ireg to your memory stick.
2. Edit the registry file
Copy the system.dreg and system.ireg file onto your PC. Open system.dreg with a Hex editor program. Run a search for "flash0:", you will be able to see some text like "flash0:/font" to be found. Then, type the directory onto this text to overwrite it. In this tutorial, we use "ms0:/fontmod" for our own font. Type it in the Hex editor to overwrite the original text in the text field, and erase the remaining text with "00" in the hex field. And at last, save the file and copy them back onto an easy-to-find place on your memory stick.
3. Repair the registry file
Use fixupdreg3.exe to fix the registry files. Just copy the exe file to where the 2 registry files are in, and run it with a double click.
4. Get the font files ready
Copy the font files into ms0:/fontmod folder.
5. Write the customized registry files back
Run FileAssistant again. Find the system.dreg and system.ireg file, and copy them into your PSP BIOS 1. This step should be the most dangerous one in the whole process since we are now actually writing to the firmware. You may want to firmly plug in your power adapter or at least check the remaining battery life. Copying is fast, but you don't want to fail on this for god's sake. After copied the files, exit FileAssistant.
After exited FileAssistant, you will see the changes if you are using a different font then the original one. If you don't you may be using the same font with the original font of the PSP, or you may need to reboot the PSP system to let it take effect (just turn it ACTUALLY off and back on).
TeamOverload has released a customized font, which is enclosed with the package we are offering for download below. You will notice that your PSP system font is all italic after using the mod.
Alternative:
If you don't want to actually write this into your firmware, you can just try it with MPH's firmware launcher. Follow the steps above and stop after completed step 4. Instead of continuing to comply with the step 5, set up a normal firmware emulation and copy the modified system.dreg and system.ireg onto flash1/registry folder of your firmware files on your memory stick to overwrite the original ones there. Then start the firmware emulation. You will also be able to see the result of the mod! (My picture was actually taken in this way ;-))
And finally, the download link:
Download: [PSP Font Customization Pack with Italic Font]
In this pack, you can see the needed fixupdreg3.exe and the need font file created by TeamOverload.

The best bet is to copy the font files over yourself. To get italic, swap the filenames of ltn0.pgf and ltn3.pgf (however you want to do it). For bold, swap ltn0 for ltn5, and for bold+italic, swap ltn0 for ltn7.

this **** is depressing ive been sitting there hoping for this "exploit in the making" come out and be done with and for them to find a buffer overflow and all they came up with is how to change the mother f*cking fonts jesus christ F*ck this its a waste of time"
There was a time where all they "came up with" was 'hello world,' you ****in' moron. You're given the chance to see something that could possibly turn out huge in its infancy, so STFU.

It would have been nice to at least check this mod out for myself, but oh well. My advice people, you get more for your buck if you stick to 1.5 or 2.0 :P...lol. That's MY opinion anyway.

I like it though, the fonts are mad cool, and I got it working on the first try ^_^
Oh, and VInxent, thanks a lot for that link to FileAssistant v0.4, I couldn't find it for the life of me, that link really helped.

Either that, or we are gunna have to wait for the developers to make different fonts, cuz no offence but i dont like da italics font.
The overall hack is great, mainly because its the FIRST cross firmware flash mod. ( Sadly not Flash0... )
No this is not a downgrader, it could reveal some secrets, but is not currently the same as a downgrader...
Good luck.

Get FA v04 here:
www.angelfire.com/art2/vinxent/FileAssistantv04.rar
Also mirror here:
http://rapidshare.de/files/16093392/FileAssistantv04.rar.html
Basically what you need to do is go into the flash1 and then the registry folder and copy those 2 files onto your MS (thru FA) then copy the font folder in flash0 to your MS (thru FA for a backup). After, exit FA and edit the system.dreg file in hex workshop like it says. then put the system.dreg and system.ireg files into the fixupreg3 folder (found in the .rar the fontmod came in) and run the exe in the fixupreg3 folder. copy the system.ireg and system.dreg folders back into your MS as well as the fontmod folder. go back into FA and copy the system.ireg and system.dreg files back to the registry folder you first got them in. When complete, hit home, and enjoy your fonts!
P.S. idunno what the crap about the cd parse thing in command prompt was about in step 9...i just used the fixupreg3.exe and it worked
Also, i recommend having the PSP plugged into AC adaptor because you are writing to your flash and you don't want battery to die while doing that!!! (trust me, i know ;)

and you guys claiming it WILL brick are talking out a hole in there ass.
this CANNOT brick as it doesnt touch your flash0.
and as for having corruption on your menu screen - take off the font mod - its not bricked if you can damn well run a game.
the tool cannot brick a psp but a dumbass using something they dont know how to use could do.
