Another way to pimp your PSP's XMB: Busy Circle mod

Ó


We have brought to you guys various ways to pimp your PSP's XMB - the XMB waves, the XMB battery edits, and the custom XMB volume bars, we got you covered. Heck, we even brought to you the RCO Icon Editor so that you could customize your XMBs on your own. So why put a halt to a good habit, right?

With that, we were informed by pimpmypsp and pspfreak101 about this XMB mod that they've worked on called Busy Circle Mod. For you to have an idea what it will look like, check out the screen these guys sent to us:

Busy circle mod - Image 1

If you're somewhat interested, please remember that this was only tested on Dark_AleX's 3.03 OE-C. The devs mentioned that this might work with 3.10 OE. They also mentioned that if you're using a custom battery icon, be sure to back it up. With that, here's the download link and we sure hope you read up on the readme file that comes with the download. Have fun!

» If you didn't figure this out already....

You must not care much. The first thing anyone would have done was look through all the rco's and prx's in the flash.

by CrashCore - 2007-02-18 21:34
» agreed

I agree. I mean, once you have RCO Icon Editor, you can look at all the RCOs and edit almost anything you find. I mean, it's cool that their giving to the community, but really people, it's extremely easy to find and edit these things yourselves.

» can you make one to match the blue battery

Is it really worth the effort to change all these little things in the XMB? I could care less about battery icons, fonts, volume bars, or loading icons. I do like the custom waves though.

by Exhilus - 2007-02-19 04:18
» Easy.

I edited the colors of the editable icons at the release of the RCO editor.



Like someone said, this stuff is really easy to do.

by Silver-Tiger - 2007-02-19 04:58
» cool...

I have another idea. Why not change the transfer XMB when you send data to the PSP via USB? Maybe another color or even an icon i.e. a car which is driving from one point to another would be really cool....



I'm not good at hexing so this is up to you...

» the picture is so unclear

Why didn't you make a video or at least a picture that shows what this is. The yellow pic doesn't show anything.

by Jin - 2007-02-19 11:19

Well you like customizing waves, other people like customizing everything. Same thing just to a new level.

by Jin - 2007-02-19 11:20

Yeah it doesn't show us what this is except for exactly what it does.



Try reading the headline? Two and two together.

Chuck Norris thing is getting a bit old.



Also, who cares how small it is? It's just one more thing you can customize. Don't like it, don't do it.

by KiGui - 2007-02-19 22:55
» maybe color change

I doubt it... I think the most that can be done is a change of color. That's all that half of these mods do.
