3.02 OE-B will run your own Playstation games! |
Ó
Yes, dear readers. This would mean that you can bypass the three basic annoyances many of us would have with the PlayStation Store once OE-B is complete: having to own a PS3, waiting for Sony's PS1 releases, and paying for them. If you own, say, Final Fantasy Tactics, this should presumably allow you to play the original game on your PSP instead of waiting for The Lion War to come out. Repeat said reasoning with the games you have that still aren't available on the PlayStation Store, and you can see just how much mileage we can get from our games.
Of course, it's still a work in progress, so keep your fingers crossed and cheer Dark_Alex on. Before we go, here's a video of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (European Version) running on the work-in-progress version 3.02 OE-B... at full speed. Merry Christmas, you lucky, lucky people!

i am....SPEACHLESS!!
THIS IS *****ING G-R-E-A-T!!
i hope he also fixes the No-umd feature.. 1.5 is officially dead
Great job, Dark_AleX!
That is what i want...
so awesomeness
go Dark_Alex
keep up the awesome work
wounder whats going to happen to all those developers who were working on a homebrew psx emulator now.
how
must be really envious now. I know I am. But I give props where due, Amazing work this is.
I just hope there's some way us Devhook for 2.71 users can get some hacked PS1 emulation on!
I wonder if we will ever be able to emulate custom firmware in devhook. I think it is theoretically possible.
When did Castlevania: Symphony of the Night come out!? I really want to play this on my oe-a! That game kicks ass!
FF 7 can be Played YYYYYYEEEEEEEES SSS!!!!! i love u(no homo)...............yyyyyyyyyyeeeee eeeessssssssss
Giggity Giggity GOO!
This is the news i've been waiting for. Wow, what a busy month for the PSP scene.
*****ing amazing final fantasy tactics for meh yeah man im gonna nead a bunch of mem cards. oh ***** my heart stopped hawahahahahaa
Wow the new year looks great already...time to run away from canada and go back to mexico.....yo quiero irme a las pulgas y comprar todo los juegos de ps1...por pesos! I just made a crack that all my PS1 games are from mexico where they cost about $3 - you gotta loe MOnterrey!
zOMG! Now THIS is awesome.. Can't belive Dark_AleX' skills.. It's going beyond my imagination.. Keep it up.. Youre the man!!
شي جميل جداً
can't wait ^_^
In this news release, there is no credit given to the person who sent in the news and no mention of the original source. No wonder you guys were the very last site to actually post up this news.
Yehs i believe it is possible, but why would you want to. It would just slow down the whole process of emulation seeing as it wouldnt be flashed.
I do, I really love this person.
DaX, in my book the greatest dev. to ever hit the PSP scene.
Keep it up DaX!
Dark alex I'm gonna tatoo your name on my ass...seriously
i just hope it doesn't take too long to come out. i want to play all my old games again
DarkAlex is a coding GOD!!! Seriously, I cant even comprehend how something like this is possible.. I barely ever reply to qj news articles, but wow.... DA what do you do for a living?? the world needs more professionals like you, and I know from reading that youve had a hard time lately between ungrateful people and family issues, but everyone here has huge faith in you. Here's hoping your holiday season is everything you want it to be, cuz youve just made alot of people's a whole helluva lot better.
I'm speechless. DaX has surprised us over and over again. He's really outdone himself. Knowing him, he'll probably release it as an X-MAS gift to everyone tomorrow. This guy just keeps getting better and better ^___^ Good luck, and great job!
P.S. Merry Christmas to everyone here at QJ and all Devs.
HOLY ***** THIS IS GOING TO BE AMAZING!
I haven't paid any attention to these custom firmware things but now looks like a great time to do so. The only thing is if I wait for this or upgrade for MGS: Portable Ops.
I wonder how this works, as Castlevania looks like it's running at a good frame rate.
it says right under the headline who posted and when it was posted
SO SWEET. THE COMMENTS SAID 0 THEN I CLICKED AND THERE WEERE LIKE 50 COMMENTS
You can't flash TA-082 motherboards with custom firmware, so they can't use any of the fancy features like PSX emulation. Therefore they need a devhook that can support it if they want to.
Holy.....this is just amazing! Good work, I think many of us are exceptionally glad by now that you didn't leave! Keep going at it!
Thanks for still programming :)
***** yeah!! this is great!!! psx isos!!! psp-black.dl.am suxx!!
can't wait for this to come out. Plz fix no umd mode. When is this predicted to release?
umm...lol?
HO-LEY *****!
Its hard to source an Annonymous source...
No Source No Credit to the person who sent it in (me)
The Source came from Zeus of maxconsole
D_A said today it will be released! *****ing amazing!! ***** my Mother*****
%u0639%u0631%u0628%u064A %u0627%u0644%u0634%u064A%u062E.. +)
same here.. +)
I hope that psx emulator work also on the devhook.
Booster Do exit devhook 0.52 V with 3.03 Firmware and unloxk Psx Emulator.
GO BOOSTER GO!!!.
I was thinking the same thing. Soon, the only time we will need 1.5 is to recover.
Really.... where does this news come from?
It really sounds unbelievable to me.
I think SONY has to tweak every game and process it in some way for emulation on the psp.
I dont believe that the 3.xx ps1 emulator is a real emulator that could run isos.
I will believe when it is here.
What do you guys mean by No-UMD? I've never really used it before.. o-o
That's damn sweet, keep at it. Totally enjoying 3.02 OE-A at the moment
Great news! Will be awesome when they release it.
Wow, so, if I am understanding correctly, we will be able to play ANY psx game on our OE's before sony can even pull that off on their official firmware? Will we have to convert our psx games to EBOOT.PBP to play them? This is great and I hope in OE-B, DAX makes it so we can choose our CPU speed... great work, DAX, your the best!
Dax man u really rock.cant wait for this!!!
cool.merry xmas to all
Porfavor no vengas a ser paisano aqui en Laredo, Texas robando nuestra mercancia... gracias :)
(shakes head). Ok now back to my 3.02 OE-A PSP....
Yoshi who?
DA's finger
we are not wourthey we are not worthuey
DAX you are just magnificent!
Thanks you for spending time making life easier for the us psp owners.
Bust-A-Groove/2, Final Fantasy Tactics, Final Fantasy VII, and Crash Team Racing, here I come baby!
Dark Alex,
Thank you for putting in countless hours to bring us the ability to play PS1 games without having to own a PS3.
Will there be a way for us to turn our original PS1 games into playable roms?
Happy Holidays!
yeah i must say this is great
i love you $ony without u we wouldn't be able to play
$ony u are game over.I own Final fantasy 7 and some other games on my old ps1.and to play them on my psp would make me soooooo happy.Db Final boot and so on
i love dark alex i am no homo but u are the one and only
U fu**ed sony in a** at almost your own.i think sony wouldn't forget ur great name so early
i waitet for this.u ssaved my psp of being sold
DaX if you want..you can have me...lol (family guy)
awesome so the isos can be played or what exactly does it do im still learning lol but i got a 3.02 oe-a
That was from south park not family guy lmao
I hope this works i can't wait for nfl blitz 200 on psp or all their other great games, this is going to be really awesome, now if only they could release a good 2.80 downgrader then i would be ready to try this out upon its release.
DAX has announced a planned release date for 25th of December
this are just great news! I have My PS1 Cd's here with me and Iw as frustated that I had to buy em' AGAIN!
It's like a dream! COOOOOOOOL! my god! you're the best dude!
Dark Alex.
This name belongs in a book.
CastleVania SotN is my favorite game EVER, or
MGS.
But you, my friend, are my hero.
THANK YOOOOOOOOOOOU Dark Alex
i think your genuis , and i hope you will have a happy Xmas .
THANK YOU
Who the hell would want a crappy DS. PSP is where it's at!
RIIIIIIIIIDGE RACERRRRRRRRRRR RRRRRRRRR!!!!!.
Ha we can beat Sony if this gets released soon.
I cant wait to play GT2.
dude what are you talking about it's 3.02 what could you possibly upgrade to? mgs can't need a higher firmware than that... just wait for this (it won't take long trust me).
The video is fake... if you pay attention to the background (do not look to the PSP) you can notice that when the Hot Shots game is loading, there is a change of brightness... fake ;)
so how are the buttons gona work?? i would love to play MGS but it uses every button on a psx controller. does the FW take care of that?
i sure hope you celebrate christmas now that iv'e said that twice HO, Ho, Ho, HOHOHOHOHOOOO!
Desde Puerto Rico saludos jaja Im so happy i could cry:D
It works for me..... seriously
DaX, you dont know how thankful we all are! this is probably the best fing to happen to PSP since the MPO announcement.
dark alex = psp king!
I finally gave up my 1.5 because of 3.02 OE-A. But damn, if Dark Al manages to pull this off, I'm donating for sure.
STFU
Dude,great work keep it up!!! are you still working on the usb ISO/CSO support? i use that alot.
If i wasn't so poor i would send you a couple psp's or a chunk of cash for making all our dreams come true. I am your loyal solder till the end
damn i have a decision to make dev hook or custom firmware, hym, you guys help me decide, non the less good job Dark_Alex....
sony. is. dead.
DAX FOREVER!
haha. also.. buddy. we love you so include a 333 cpu clock option!!
I guess he's using the golf boot image to play the game but inside is castlevania.Thats just common sence.
You mean platonic love. Vocabulary is your best friend!
This goes totally against what the community thought the Sony PS1 solution is... which is that every one of the current PS1 games released for the PSP were actually ports and not an EMU that runs an ISO of the game. So, does this DA solution mean that the "native" PS1 support of 3.02+ is an actual Sony EMU or that DA has come up with his own implementation of an EMU in the new OE-B version?
Geil ich glaub ich komm gleich xD!
I'll still get FFT: Lion War for the enhancements (true widescreen, new characters, classes, FMVs), but I can't deny the awesomeness of this future release.
Very impressed, thank you! This is what Sony should have done.
When i grow up i want to be just like you.... well actually a video game devloper, but still. Where did you go to school. Cant wait for this to come out......
DAX, please...get this working! I know you can do it! I've always been a fan of your SE firmwares, I can't wait to see your magic on OE-B!
I had FW1.5 and was using Devhooked 2.71 to play all my UMDs, but only stumbled upon DaX's SE Firmware whilst desperately searching for a way to play GTA VCS without upgrading (I ALMOST DID!)
Dark Alex has re-kindled my PSP Love. I was hardly using it untill 2.71 SE. Since then I've checked QJ daily, bought loads more UMDs and am constantly looking for new programs and new ways to customise it. THANK YOU DaX!
*On a side note, has anyone had problems with the region select? I have a UK PSP with 3.02 OE-A, but it still can't play my US games.
this *****s gayyyyy who the ***** cares about ps1 games when you have a Peice of ***** Portable.
Just imagine this, Dark Alex could have made this just for himself, and showed the whole world what he can do! But because he is so wicked sik, awsome god like, he shares this with us ALL! Dark Alex, I'd like to send a donation, where can I send some cash for your hard work!!!!!!!!!!! !!
DAMn....
Dark Alex Kilzzz
this guy dominated tha psp scene
thoo there are gud games for ps1
a ps2 emulator wil be amazing
supporting ps1 games n ps2 gamez...
bring in da paypal accounts dark alex omg i wish i was like you.
Desde La Joya texas, saludos!!! Puro Valle!!! This is awsome, going to try ASAP
What ever happened to .DAX iso's being able to load directly from the GAME menu? Still being worked worked on or what?
If you actually read the readme that is in every single one of his releases you would know, goodnight.
Mommy told me about the holy three being four after 1980...ish she said there was god dad, god son, god bird, and god Alex... is this true? she said God sent him to us as a human kind rules gift
If this comes to be so that I can play fully functioning MGS, I will hold Dark Alex as the best dev of all time and finally put a custom firmware on my virgin 1.5.
Cant belive they havent made any assasination attempts on DAX lmao...(man i love this guy)
the final thing i would long for is for the NO-UMD option to become mroe refined or flawless really...
MGS requires FW 2.81, at least the US version does.
Another great present from Alex.
MGS:PO works great under 3.02 SE-A, I don't see why it wouldn't under B.
This is me, playing the Playstation games I already bought on my PSP instead of paying Sony to play them again.
This is f***ing amazing! I bet $ony are sh*tting their f***ing pants right now! Dark_AleX ownz ALL! All hail Dark_AleX! King of ALL hacks! Incredible work! Thank you! We will no longer be controlled by the machine known as $ony and we will have ultimate control over our psp's...the way it should be. Thank you!
i'm going to sue dark_alex to pay for my dry cleaning bill cuz i just lost it in my pants and it's all his fault.
Its been out for a while on the psx I assume. It was never released by sony specifically for the psp. Get excited! Sony's official emulator running our purchased games!
No homo? I wonder how many other pests r on here... Shoot that ***** to the sky, man!
unbelievable, Dark_Alex can i have ur baby plz!
i reckon (take me serious now!! ) a fund should be set up for Dark_Alex, hes not doing it forthe cash granted...but he deserves a LOT more than thanks for making our PSPs our own & not sonys (till the warranty runs out) id pay money into any paypal account given to him (if this would be at all possible)
eat ***** sony *****boy
This rules; I wish my old PSX games were still in good condition. Still, pretty awesome stuff. I can't wait till they make Nintendo 64 compatible on PSP too.
HAHA yo ni compro los juges solo los bajo del internet
Joyeux Noel mes amis. Qui vous faissiez un bon an
I think we should i mean dam this guy doesn't stop. And just imagine he isn't doing this for money imagine wat will happen when he recieves money.... I know i would be motivated more!! but anyways i have nothing else to say but your a god and u cant possibly be human!!!
! WOW !
Dark AleX... you have out done yourself!
Thanks for all your hard work and hope the holidays have something special for you...
I love you man... (sniff)
So now how do I get the PS1 games to memory chip and play?
For those of you who are saying that 1.5 firmware is dead or isn't as good as 3.02 OE-A (which I have installed right now) you should remember that without 1.5 firmware none of this would be possible in the first place.
is there a good site to goto that will tell a computer illiterate SOB like me everything i need to know about finding & running ps1 isos on my psp? Everything ive found has been little to no help, and im assuming i need to do better than the 32mb memory stick i currently have. If any1 knows u can get me at yahoo (SouthtownZ@yah oo.com) Merry christmas every1. FRRRRRRRRUNKUS! !!
This is absolutely an utterly amazing. He is a genius at coding, and I pick him as the greatest one there is. He makes the PSP scene flow so easily with every release, making countless people (like myself) just read what he has made and said, "...wow." Do you remember when he first came out with that 1.5 custom firmware that gave you Recovery Mode? I was thinking, "Hot damn that kid is awesome." Now with OE 3.02, it is everything I ever wanted in a PSP, honestly. Dark_Alex is the man, I see no one being better than him. Who here thought we could run a full speed (including sound) psx emulator of our own games this early? Obviously Dark_Alex did. Way to go man.
After reading about this I was just speechless. I cant believe something like it is even possible. It sounds like something people would have discovered on the PSP years from now. Thank you so much Dark Alex your the one that makes the PSP worth having!
dude ark alex if ur readin this u suck! the only way i would ever like u is if u made a ta-082 suportting 3.02 oe
what does it mean by run your own playstation game??
u can flash custom firmware on a ta-082 (just not this one) and if u cant flash CF on 082 then i dont hav1 but i looked @ it and ......i do
niceeee
dark_alex u da man my friend!
you like crippled the whole sony team - I wish I could see their faces: WTF who TF released those psx game DISI#$(#($()#
priceless
The 1st poster said it best.
I am speechless.
This one move will sell a CRAPLOAD of psps!
Dark_Alex, what a xmas present. Thank you x10000000!!!!
WOW, this is gonna be AWESOME! Rock on!
I just blew my load.
dax is not responsable for you having a ta-082 ***** get off !!!! DAX ur the best
Don't hate the player, hate the game.
As for me, I'm cheering on ya!
Merry Xmas btw, suckers XD.
A Very merry month for anybody without a ta-82 board! Lets just hope for the few of you, and congrats on this Dark Alex.
my heart just stoped... (last words) Dark_Alex rulez... uhgh.../\.../`\..._____...______..._________ It's a Christmas miracle, i'm alive! lol!
Nothing I can say that hasn't already been said, you're the *****ing ***** Dark_Alex, keep it up!!!
A big gift to me on XChrismas.
It would so very suck if everything BUT that game worked.
These are my favorite PSX games too. I've been dreaming of SOTN on the PSP for quite a while.
God I can't wait.
DAX is the GOD of PSP.
Not to mention how would one defeat Psycho Mantis?
You had to switch controller ports to defeat him so he couldn't "read your mind".
The only thing I ever believe now is that Dark_Alex works for Sony.
I have crash bandicoot eboot.pbp. how do i exactly run it on the psp? Any1 pls help me. million thanks.
well i betcha DaX secretly works for Sony and demands them to do stupid things like RELEASE A PSX EMU! How dumb can sony get. Obviously they must have knew that that was gonna get hackd sooner or later.
Goodone DaX, If i was a hot female with huge gonzoolas i would totally just lay there and let you do what you want!
Cant wait for release! which is today if you didnt know!
Luvoo!
lol
alright if ur using custom 3.02 OE-A u need to create a folder in PSP/GAME just name a new folder watever u like
and put eboot.pbp on that folder and done
but you know....ppl comming here would probley double instantly if he started working with the ta 081 mobo...since that now is the basic system .....i got all my emulators woking with ta lets just hope i can get ps emulator to run ff7-9 omg and thank god for google.....keep up the good work DA your my heeerooo XD =P
.
Un_freakin-believable !!!
Awsome !!!
I hope it comes out tomorrow, Merry-mother*****in-Christmas
Lame-ass. ; )
I was wondering if the program to mod the 2.80 would work for 2.81. I didn't know how much the same 2.80 and 2.81 were. I was just wondering because I didn't want to brick my PSP.
Yea, i'm really starting to hate my ta-082 with 2.8 firmware.
When i first came into the scene, i was disheartened to learn that i had a ta-082, where were supposedly death incarnate. But then i learned of HEN-D. I was lifted up, only to be dropped when i realized that i had 2.8.
Even when i found out about 2.71 se and how it didn't run on ta-082, i was able to console myself by saying that it really couldn't be all that its cracked up to be. HEN-D could work just fine, i thought.
And just when it seemed that i would be able to be satisified with my psp (2.8 stable downgrader in the near future), you guys drop this on me.
This, i don't think i can live without. This i might have to buy a psp on ebay to get.
*Sigh* and i just found out my idiot friend upgraded his non-ta082 to 3.01. I was gonna swap over christmas.
Aye, so to answer your question, i beleive the answer is no, as part of what oe (and se) does is some mini/auto-devhooking to run 1.5 under 3.02 (or 3.02 on top of 1.5).
As far as i know, double devhooking wouldn't work. And besides, as the person below me mentioned, it would be slow as hell.
i have the folder in game directory and put the eboot inside the new folder together with the keys.bin.
i can see crash bandicoot in under game memory stick in xmb. when i run it, it only show the xmb background. can't even pass through the gameboot. just stay there. wat happen? thanks again dasda
No way to downgrade 2.81 yet, sorry.
how do you run ps one games under psp? psx isos? i need some info... thanks
ALL YOU TA-082 WHINERS PISS OFF YOU LOT ANNOY ME TO NO EXTENT
IF YOU WANT HOMEBREW AND YOU ARE IMPATIENT ENOUGH TO SLANDER THE DEV'N GOD THAT IS DARK ALEX
THEN FCKIN SELL YOUR PSP AND PAY THE DIFFRENCE
IS 20-30 QUID TOO MUCH TO PAY FOR YOU WHINERS?
anyway respect DA you truly are a god amongst devs
WE ARE NOT WORTHY DUDEEE!!
I cant believe this is gonna actually come true DAX YOU ARE THE BEST only thing im just wondering is that how will the format are we gonna have to convert the iso into eboots since i was looking throught the already released eboot psx games and they added alot other features like info about the game the whole manual of the game alos even the icons, but seriously this gonna be amazing cant wait to rip my FF7 and play it on my psp hope we can compress to cso or something like that or else im gonna need to get a bigger memorystick.
omfg i love you dude omfgYES@!!!!!!! ! holy ***** im wo exited omfg ~!ijbjewfbkwefb
Lol, true, but in the article it is worded strangely.
"This would mean that you can bypass the three basic annoyances many of us would have with the PlayStation Store once OE-B is complete: having to own a PS3, waiting for Sony's PS1 releases, and paying for them. "
Maybe if it said, "repaying for them" i'd understand, but it seems that in the excitement of the moment even the qj editors let slip whats on most peoples minds right now.
You know, Dark Alex, I don't know what type of person you are in real life. You could be a total *****. You could be a fricken saint. But I do know this:
You are, without a doubt, the reason why I haven't sold my PSP yet, and why it is my favorite system.
Thank you. Honestly, thank you so much.
Merry Christmas.
According to the irc at irc.lan.st it would seem like the release date is tomorrow.
Its a Christmas miracle!
(with different time zones though it could possibly be the day after)
There will be any "update" for 3.02 OE-A users? We can't write two times on flash memory, can we?
hwo do i install and play ps1 games on the psp using this program im lost. where do i put the .bin file of the game and use POP.?
CAn someone plz tell me how...i cant find out where to put the iso...i put it in iso but it says corrupt data...plz help
this is all well and good (WTF is with that expression anyway...) but now i gotta figure out this whole torrent thing to download eboots? Fantastic. I knew i should have paid more attention in computer class. If any1 knows where or howto get ps1 eboots for your PSP as easy as ive been DL'n SNES roms let me know - cause i dont have the slightest F'n clue what I'm doing with these torrent sites. Its SouthtownZ@yaho o.com. Thanks people. Merry Christmas.
If you used a custom gameboot it will do that. Also, sometimes it just installs funky and you gotta reinstall.
DA, your a god. i dont know what to say. i figured eventually someone would crack the KEYs needed for psx games so that we could play our own isos, but i never thought it would be so quick. Keep up the goodwork DA, im pretty sure you will (your a machine) and thx for each and every contribution to the scene :)
it either gameboot or topmenu_plugin compatibility issue here. If u had previously flash own customised topmenu_plugin, try flash back the original plugin. it should work. well i dun think gameboot has anything to do with it.
YOU ARE... GOD!!
I didn't try any of the xisting 3.0x OEs so I hope its not complicated to set up, or get PS1 games in, turning disks into ISOs is really simple, but yeah, we'll see I suppose.
time to start downloading ps1 isos
good job
start working on the N64 emulator!!!
still exited but the video is gone..... DARK ALEX at first i doubted your firmware thinking it was buggy and unstable now I believe your firmware has out beat Sony's offical firmware great job alex you have millions of fans around the world
yes u r right axelixc. i did flash my own customised topmenu_plugin previously. after i got back the original one. all ps1 eboot work !i i also flash back the original gameboot too. thank DiabloTerrorGF too.
Awesome, it's kind of wierd though.
The PSX games for PSP aren't really emulated, they're ports.
I don't understand how we will be able to port our own games.
Always love to hear news like this
I was wondering how they are doign the ps1 emulation
if it is using the orig isos and adding a emu loader etc guess well see
dark alex is a god. but rember half of you wouldnt be able to do this if it wasnt for 0okm
goodbye my launch 1.5 never upgraded/downgrader psp...and hello to 3.02OEB!
ff7, mgs, sotn...i cant wait
good work.
how are the people tha put the 3.02 oe-a firmware supposed to get this one? just put all the files in the game150 folder?
and by the way great job. only reason i still have this piece of *****
yea u suck hans.
I LOVE Monterrey! One of my favorite places in the world.
If Dark_Alex pulls this off he will be a PSP Legend!
This is some good news. I'm glad to hear about such breakthrough..but still have some questions or mainly one question. How is multi-disc games going to work? For example, ff7 at end of disc 1, how will it be switched to disc 2 without resetting the emulation so that the disc 2 can be continued on to the next one? Maybe a save file already be created so that even if disc 2 is inserted at a later time, it'll work? Well, I never have the chance to play any multi-disc games on ps1 so any answer will be welcome. Please don't flame me. Again, thanks and wonderful news..can't wait...
and the idiot award goes to brunobelo. congratulations . oh fyi you can flash more than twice. it's a rewritable flash numbnuts. how many times has sony released an update? that writes to flash obviously. duh.
That seems most likely, games always ask you to save, so loading a 2nd disk up and choosing the file on the "fake" memory card for PS1 should make it run flawlessly.
Im only worried about R2/L2 buttons and 2nd analog on some, but most run without it.
OOOOOH MY GOD, MY XMAS present was 3.02 OE-A, now this. This is fantastic. FF7 here I come! Just hope it has NTSC-J support for my super robot wars alpha gaiden 0_0 THANK YOU VERY MUCH Dark_Alex. U are one of my psp GODS!
Dark Alex rules!!! You like a magician yo hahaha
This is great, i tried crash through Dh but of course it dont work......I cant wait to play Twisted metal!!!!
What yall think Sony gonna do about this? IM sure they know by now....
Im still lil afraid about upgraded to custom firm but with this news i just might!
Merry X-mas!!
wow. this is great news!
sony=sucker
Congratulations psp homebrew communities, you have entered heaven.
He has a point you know..
Holy! I'm going to see to it that i somehow manage to donate to DAX as soon as i'm allowed to get a Credit Card o_o
IF you call Ookm is King, then Dark_Alex is the God of PSP
dont you think he's a psp legend already?? i mean have u seen what he's done??!
or they could kill themselves
come on people you really think sony would rewrite all playstation 1 games? why are eboots so *****in big? its because its already in iso format hidden under an eboot. once DAX gets his ***** together we are all going to be happy people ripping our ps1 games like mad cows and buy 4 gb sticks to fit all our games on there. the only game i can think of that uses analog sticks is ape escape. man all the great classics comin to psp near you STAR OCEAN HERE I COME!
We just succeeded in dumping 3.03 today. I would recommend switching, solely because a 3.02 and below downgrader doesn't seem far off now that we know a kernal access exploit exists. All we have to do is find the exploit to tap into that. The dump will surely help!
Dark Alex is experimenting constantly and Ookm the mad scientist is doing other unknown things (the master of TA-082 and the softdown). I would switch still.
finally...FF VII on my psp...iv been waiting for this since i got my psp in march 05...i have no idea how metal gear is going to work...BUT I CANT WAIT TO FIND OUT!!! PSYCO HERE I COME....AGAIN!!!!
***** yes. Re-playing all my old games that I haven't played in years. FF7,8,9, Parasite Eve, Vagrant Story, Koudelka, Star Ocean, Suikoden... *ASPLODES*
Parappa the Rappa here i come!
It is not Dark_Alex fault your PSP sucks ;)
Someone give this crying baby a candy...
When has Dark_Alex ever let us down?
totally..... 2.71SE killed it a long ways back with iso loading and being able to run eboots without kxploit.
amazing. rival schools on psp here I come.
I wish I had this guy's e-mail to tell him how absolutely ownage he is.. oh well, Merry Christmas!!!!!!

if you think about it, this is actually a good thing ( provided people BUY the old PS1 console game) . It will give some value back to an otherwise dismissed game console and it's games. I could see myself more eagerly buying old PS1 games from a second hand store, then shelling out $499-$599 plus another $5 for each game. I can imagine $499 could buy a ton of old PS1 games ;-).
Oh and I don't know if anybody said it yet, but if not I will be the first to welcome ya back DA ( It was too addictive to stay away, huh
1.5 is STILL useful, and you still need the eboot update for it for the 3.02oe-a/b. So 1.5 is doing us a good thing! Good Job D_A!
and Now I am Giggity Giggity GONE!
Do you need a ps1 emulator to play ps1 games for 3.02 or can someone just tell me how to play ps1 games.
If you are LEGALLY and no homebrew'ing your PSP, you need a PS3 to get onto the Sony online store and buy the PS1 game. This video is a Work In Progress for the next version of 3.02 OE-B Custom Firmware. In this you can use ANY PS1 back up you currently own or have aquired under any means. I hope this information was usefull.
holy crap, I knew I shouldnt have upgraded to OE-A. It looks like they replaced the game data in the Hot Shots Golf eboot with the data from other games, making it think its a regular PSP store eboot.
This is going to be the biggest day in PSP history.
PSP history people DARK ALEX rules
dark alex is a beasssssssssst
it saddens me to agree that 1.5 is dying but since oe-a came out I finally gave up the 1.5.
NO HOMO!!!!!
Dark_Alex is already PSP Legend! XD
You can already play MGS on devhook emulating a certain kind of firmware. A 1.5 PSP can play any UMD through devhook. These custom firmwares are pretty much the same thing but more convienient.
keep working on it. From what I've heard, the official Sony PSOne emulator isn't the greatest. Switching display modes is supposed to trigger quite a pause, and you require 1 MB free for PSOne saves. A PSX Emulator (to differentiate it from the official PSOne emulator from Sony) from homebrew developers would have features such as being able to read .MCR memory card files from PC/Mac/Linux emulators, which would make some people estatic.
All I hope is that Sony wises up and creates an add-on that gives the PSP an extra analog nub and two more triggers. It's not like adding peripherals is anything new, and we know the PSP's USB jack can operate in Host Mode (PSP Camera and GPS units, anyone?).
ur exactly right when the ***** has dark alex ever let us down? never he is a god of psp programming, in fact i plan to make a shrine in dedication to dark alex, j/k but seriously give the guy a little more credit than that if he said he has found a way then i believe it.
I have found a psp crashbandicoot game eboot on a torrent. So how where would I put it to play the game or do I still need an emulator.
great news
thanx alex for the best christmas time i have in years
you are *****ing great man!!!!
i can't wait!!!!
AAAAAAAAAh
Thank you DA. Not much I can do but dance and be greatful.
it is just like it says play ur own ps1 games. im guessing it means you can take a ps1 game you own rip the info onto ur pc and somehow convert it to pbp so it will be playable on ur psp
This is amazing news We do need a way to play our own real psx games again on our psp without buying the same games again and needing a PS3. I think sony should have given this facility to us in the first place.....
I'm curious to see how Tekken3, MGS and Loaded look on the PSP
Gonna convert them later
super nouvelle
joyeux noël en passant !
start recolecting psx games XD
He knows what we like and doesn't hesitate to go for it. If sony was this foreward thinking they probably wouldn't have bit the bullet on psp sales.
I'm definately looking foreward to this, I still break out into a cold sweat when I think of playing Vagrant Story on the subway.
Thanks Dark_Alex there truly is a santa
BEST CHRISTMAS EVER.
Dark_Alex you are the best programmer in the world!!!I believe in you!
Just got myself a ta-082, I support DAX all the way! Keep up the good work man.
-Santa Claus
Dude i f*****g love you! Keep us informed of updates and merry christmas to the greatest dev to live!
If DAX said it I believe it, he is a great guy and I absolutely love his custom firmware. But what if some anonymous sucker posted the news and not DAX? Would not be the first time in the PSP scene. You guys always react like OMG OMG OMG YEAH COOL. And then the "sorry is a bricker" "sorry is a fake" follow-up news come in.
What about games where disc swaps are needed?
You took the words right out of my ****in' mouth. Damn, Dark_Alex is like Jesus or sumthin'!!! The Day has finally come!!! We can't stopped!!!! Tekken 3, Gran Turismo 2, OMG ****in' Metal Gear Solid!!! After this I'll never be able to put my PSP down again. See, this is what Sony should have been doing all along. I bet they're probably hitting themselves over the head with a brick right about now!
Anyway, nice, nice, NICE work Dark_Alex!!!
my hero man jesus, i wounder how fat you are considering the work and effort put into that hard work,
any way merry xmas to yall, especialy dax
Is this guy a Sony insider?
He hacks/writes faster than any dev in here!
looks like it's time to bust out the box of PSX games from the top shelf of my closet :)
You are awesome Dark_AleX, you must be getting many presents from santa this year :D, btw you really should get something where people can donate for your great works
there is the paypal on the left
http://dax.psp-tuts.net/
donate some money ;)
but there is now one most important. the ta-082 mobo. more n more psp now in the market r ta-082 with at least 2.80 n above. every1 knows tat ookm is the only dev capable of softdown the ic-1003 motherboard obviously using his miracle program. so i hope all devs out there try their best to crack the ta-082 n make a praticle downgrader for it.
pls look at the bigger picture now. if they can't write a practical downgrader for ta-082. i believe sooner or later the psp scene will die which i dun hope to c though mine is ta-081 3.02 oe-a.
This is brilliant news, Dark_Alex is a coding machine, i absolutely cannot wait for the release, Tombi on the go is now a reality to me at last.
Thank-you Dark_Alex!!! :)
CHUPAME LA VERGA,ESTE SI ES POSSIBLE.AHORA,VOY A JUGAR RESIDENT EVIL 2,Y SHADOW MAN EN MI PSP.ARRIBA LA LIBRACION!! AY CHINGADO,CORRAL E,LA MIGRA!!!!
Dax isn't a god, he's just a mere Genius
Dark_ALexi s GOD!!!
Muchas gracias tio!!!
Now I need to raid eBay for PSX games!! This is too awesome!
LOL...Schwuchtel ey! XD
nur ein Scherz
Dark_AleX is really amazing. He is like Kryptonite to Sony. Everytime they think of an angle to make money or to stop emulation and join Bush in global domination, (Look up Alex Jones, Bohemian Grove, Terrorstorm), Dark AleX comes along and makes the gaming on a purchased psp free like it should be. Imagine if you bought a car and couldn't drive it. Or a plane and couldn't fly it....or a psp and couldn't play it. More Power to Dark Alex and Alex Jones......set the gaming community and the world free....knowledge is power...Hack On!
he writes new code faster than sony

Dark Alex, you are GOD!
sypro year of the dragon doesn't work.
you h8 dark alex b/c its not for ta-82 psp? you sir, are a dumb ass! he does what is possible, dont h8 dark alex! this is a godsend. it is your fault for getting a ta-82.
KEEP UP THE Good work Dark Alex!!!!
how to get the Hot shots 2 game of the playstation store, and its keys.bin, and put it in the same
directory than popstation, renaming it from EBOOT.PBP to BASE.PBP.
Even if using other ps3store game could work, it is not recommended because the program was
done specifically using this one. USE HOT SHOTS 2 USA.
why isnt POPStation working for me???? I put the DLL file into the system32 folder. Will this ONLY work with Hot Shots 2?? Because I have about 3 other games =\. Other than that, The DOS window closes so fast I cannot read the file. And ive tried on 2 computers now and both DOS are doing the same thing =(
stop all the hate ppl just cause you aint got 1.5 this proves 1.5 IS the best firmware with a now legal way to play all your ps1 games without having to re-buy!
Someone get this for TA-082 or DevHook or whatever NOW plz.
Thank you Dark_Alex
JUst upgrade! its the same exact thing but improved! what does 1.5 have that 3.02 OEA doesnt? You guys are so dumB!!!
Retards.
finally ps1 emulation is possible... and i have the wrong model. :(
Maybe it's because you're a dumb-ass and didn't read the readme file, which clearly states why what you're doing will never work.
the eboot for Syphon Filter seems to work out fine.. but when I use FF7 with popstation says everything is complete. Go to play the game, doesnt start. I guess hot shot 2 is the only game that DOES work +\
Yeah Great I got some PS1 games and make iso's of them and making EBOOT's and custom pics for it take a look
http://i10.tinypic.com/2lm5qp1.jpg
:) Great Work Dark_Alex
Why do u need a friggen PS3 to put PS1 games on your PSP, tht sucks.
PS3- $700
PSP- $200
Total- $1000 (with tax)
F**K that.
Dark Alex you're awesome! Thankfully still have my entire PSP collection !!
Can anyone confirm if these custom firmware can be removed later if I want switch back to 1.5 or regular firmware?
Thanks, and merry Xmas!
When i try to convert legend of dragoon the dos windows closes so fast.
I don't know why...i have this:
c:/popstation/BASE.PBP (it was the eboot.pbp from hot shot 2)
KEYS.bin (from hot shot 2)
popstation.exe
legend1.iso
And i put the cygwin1.dll into windows/system.... what could the problem be? :S
On Custom Firmware 3.02 OE-B will the vice city stories cheatdevice still work from the special iflasher that allows it to run from the xmb on 2.71 SE-B3 without the use of devhook?
plz reply soon.
cheers matt
ff7 and ff8 portible ***** lol ooo and ehrgeiz great job dark alex
Dark_Alex, you truly just made my Christmas. Playing FF7 (for the first time in years) brought me to tears. Once again, THANK YOU!
Now I would do anything just for love,I run to hell and run right back.
Now I would do anything just for love,I got a psp and willing to hack.
Because of you dark alex keep on hacking this ***** all night.to nigt.

there's just one thing i don't understand... i downgraded from 2.71 to 1.50 ...why am i so affraid for this one
I would love to c a picture of that obn the internet
it would make a grat 3.02 oa wall paper
lol
I really dont understant how to do this
will someone please tell me in detail how to make this work, or make a video and put it on you tube, or even email me the details to larryb41232yahoo.com
What kind of files are being used to emulate this?
Call me a noob, but I havent visited this site in a few months and I just don't understand.
You are simply amazing, a programming genius. You could be out there making millions working as a programmer, but you decide to stay with us and contuie the fight against Sony. (Hehe)
Keep it up man.
has any one had problems running iso images, i cant seem to run fight night round 3, madden 07, or Metal Gear Portable OPS
I got a problem , against big boss, my FFVIII game is freezing , can somebody explain me why ???
I upgraded the firmware on my friends PSP to 3.02 OE-B
Was scared at first finding i had upgraded the firmware from 1.50 to 3.02 but was kind of cool to be able to load the PSX folder of a game in the PSP?GAME folder and play it from the mem stick. Found out could still load ISOs in the ISOs folder and play directly from mem stick aswell without loading Devhook .52
Have a problem with Raw vs Smackdown . Frose but asways had a problem with it. Virtua Tennis, Battle Zone, all worked.
NOW YOU CAN DOWNGRADE LOOK AT THAT

hi, i just bought a psp with firmware 3.02, can i play anything but original games? if yes, how do i go about it? thanks
Sorry, but can some one tell me where I find dark alex 3.02 OE-A and B
Dont be an idiot You can take a ta 082 and use DAX downgrader to 1.5 than install oe-a and b
ON A TA 082
So now you owe him an apology and you should donate to the cause!!
its called a search engine people use it.
