Listed in: Homebrew Applications Tags: Custom Firmware, Dark AleX, psp homebrews, SDK
Ó

We know you guys are rather excited about this one so here's the changelog as provided by Dark AleX himself. Take note that you should be on CFW 3.71 M33-1 or M33-2 to be able to install the new custom firmware build. Likewise, the new PopsLoader requires you to be on the 3.71 M33-3.
Changelog for CFW 3.71 M33-3
- Fixed a bug in access to flash by usb.
- HEN core: kernel prx's with syscall exports work again.
- PSP Slim: programmers can set the size of user memory to 52 MB by using a sfo flag.
- Check sample in sdk for usage.
- March33 NO-UMD driver:
- Fixed a bug that could hang the psp when exiting with home.
- Fixed compatibility issue with Castlevania Dracula X Chronicles, and maybe more games.
- Vshmenu: it wasn't displaying properly with psp slim TV-OUT due to the change of resolution. Fixed.
- Support for 3.71 and 3.72 pops has been added. Note that 3.71 however will not appear in the list in 3.71 M33 as it is not necessary.
- List of files needed for each version:
- 3.00-3.03: kd/popsman.prx, kd/meaudio.prx, kd/pops.prx, vsh/module/pafmini.prx
- 3.10-3.30: kd/popsman.prx, kd/pops.prx, vsh/module/pafmini.prx
- 3.40-3.72: kd/popsman.prx, kd/pops.prx, vsh/module/pafmini.prx, vsh/module/libpspvmc.prx
- The files must be decrypted. (use square in psardumper). Support for encrypted&packed files is planned for the future.

I'll finally be able to run FFIX on my slim rather than having to revert back to the phat.

But can someone explain this popsloader thing?
Does it mean that we can swap between the different versions for better compatibility, knowing some games work better on some pops? If yes, how exactly?
ps DA if you read this: Every community has some rotten appels in it (or more than some), please don't get discouraged by that and stay in the psp community, you do so much good for us ;)

after that, you take the files metioned in the article and put them in the popsloader folder.
to actually use it, hold R (i think... maybe L) and choose the one you want.

ok so then what? no hint at all as to where these files go on the memstick. i would assume they would go in ms0:/plugins/popsloader that is where it says sony prx's go here. but how do you know what ones are for what if they all have the same filenames? can you only have 1 version of popstation on here?

all of them go in X:\seplugins\po psloader

How can I fix this?

Two questions, please:
1) Do you have to find out what firmware allows each game to be able to play them? For example, if firmware update 3.40 allowed the game 'Grind Session', is that the only one I can use?
2) ok the first one was two questions (lol), but, Can I use the same prx's from a higher firmware in each category (3.00-3.03, 3.10-3.30, and 3.40-3.72), say renaming 3.30's pops.prx to pops310, pops311, pops330, the ones below it, or should I download and decrypt each firmware?
Thanks for any help. I have a few PSX games I'd like to play, but they never work for me.

- Use M33 Newpsardumper to dump files dl it at qj
- put the original fmw eboot in the
ms0/ (ex. 3.40 fmw = EBOOT.PBP)
- put the M33 psardumper to PSP/GAME/
- put the popsloader file and folder in ms0/seplugin/
- run the psardumper (must be in 3.71 fmw)
then press square
- after its done, mount the usb to pc
- copy the files needed (base on what fmw you decrypt
ex *3.40 fmw) from folder F0 that you'll see in ms0
then put it in ms0/seplugins/popsloader/
3.00-3.03: kd/popsman.prx, kd/meaudio.prx,
kd/pops.prx, vsh/module/pafmini.prx
3.10-3.30: kd/popsman.prx, kd/pops.prx,
vsh/module/pafmini.prx
*3.40-3.72: kd/popsman.prx, kd/pops.prx,
vsh/module/pafmini.prx,
vsh/module/libpspvmc.prx
- rename the files you copied depends on what fmw
you decrypt
(ex. popsman340.prx, pops340.prx pafmini340.prx,
libpspvmc340.prx)
- after that, go to ms0/seplugins and look for pops.txt
(note: if theres no pops.txt there use the notepad
to create one)
- put this in the pops.txt file ms0:/seplugins/popsloader.prx
then save it
- now go to the recovery menu (reboot then hold R) then
go to plugins then enable popsloader.prx
- now play your psx games then a menu will appear that
will let you choose what pops fmw are you going
to use then press x or o.
- enjoy ^_^'

First: this new popsloader must be run on firmware 3.71 m33-3
second: the menu asking what version of pops you want to use will only come up the first time you start each individual ps1 game. If you need to try a different version after that because of a bug or something, you will need to hold the R button as you start the game (from the xmb), and the menu will come up asking you what version to use

He doesn't do m33 3.72, but he does offer a downgrade to m33 3.71, so from there you can do the upgrade to m33 3.72. Tell them youarepwned sent you. Cool!

Companies such as ebay pay CC to have people try their offers, and when you complete an offer, CC simply passes the money onto you. By spending an average of 3-4 hours a week on cascrate,
I have made 472$ in May, 412$ in June, and 271$ (SO FAR) in July. You get paid in real checks from "KNGSIDE MEDIA" every month that you earn 10 dollars or more. It may seem too good to be true,
but I assure you it IS true. Also, with their referral program, you can refer people by sending them your link (you get when you sign up) and for every buck they earn, you get 20 cents also! (Think how much money you can make if you have 100 people making five bucks a day)
You do not have to enter your credit card or social security number. Nothing Harmful can come from CC. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE 18 OR OLDER, I AM 15 YEARS OLD AND REFERRING PEOPLE, AND I MAKE THIS MUCH MONEY A MONTH
JUST SPENDING A COUPLE MINUTES A DAY ON THE COMPUTER! THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR READING THIS.
Think it's a scam? Read this(from the website) "We assure you that this is not a scam! Companies need consumers to try and review products, services, and websites and are willing to pay money to have them do so.
Most of the time you're asked to do this without any compensation, what we do is take the money companies give us for YOUR participation, and give you back up to 75% of it!"
There are alot of websites like this, I have tried almost all of them and this really is the best, and legit one.In addition there is a new UK section opened with more then $200 worth of free offers!
