Homebrew coder says goodbye; leaves SRC and binaries behind |
Ó
Homebrew coder pj1115 dropped by QJ Forums today and released a collection of homebrews, including full source codes - just ready to be compiled with the PSPSDK. As much as this sounds great and exciting, this isn't entirely a good day for the community. Because you see, pj1115 is saying goodbye to us all.According to the homebrew developer, his depression has escalated as of late and he feels the need to get away. It should be remembered that he has done this before, leaving the scene, but pj1115 mentioned that this time is for good. He lamented,
The biggest and saddest reason is the scene. Still glorious as always, though it now lacks the excitement and the triumph you felt waiting for something groundbreaking or using it. Back in the day of 1.50, in the day of 2.50, and in the day of crude, cheerful homebrew. We've come too far, is the bottom line. I don't mean to be a killjoy, but the scene is wilting, and that's the way the cookie crumbles.
So there. He said his goodbye and left the community some of his precious works. It is now up to you to say your farewell to pj1115. Below is a summary of the compilation and we here at QJ hope that whoever will pick them up, will cherish the applications and remember pj1115 every step of the way.
- PSPG (PSPGuides) - Spent a really long time making them, but Google deleted them and I had to go through an unbelievable amount of trouble to get the files. HTML format. A little outdated (goes as far as 3.02, so Devhook, firmware and custom firmware history, downgraders, etc are out of date).
- HideMedia BETA II(FIX) - The fixed version of BETA II, which caused some reversable 'damage' to the MS's folders. Everything works fine now, or so it should. Includes full source. If you encountered this, use my fixer HERE.
- FirmwareAutoBooter - You may not have met this, but I it fashioned a while ago, borrowing some code here-and-there from the open-source SXT's BFM. It's a firmware loader, designed for 1.00 debug, with no GUI, so it's cool if you set it to autoboot in OE. You'll boot straight into the emulated XMB. Full source included.
- HTML Sound Hack + Flasher - My HTML sound hack's latest build, as well as the source code for the flasher. If you didn't see this, it allowed you to modify the PSP's default browser sounds (ie, for the menu). I don't think it works about firmware 3.03 since Sony re-organised the files. HTMLviewer.snd no longer exists.
- Outa-Space PSP - My flash0 space free-ing application. Full source included, as well as some tips for further development (in the main.c).
- PSP3D.com Official XMB Theme + Flasher - I suspect that few of you will be interested in the actual theme (which is outdated and incomplete anyway), though the source code for the flasher is included.

Sad to see you go. Good luck!
thanks for ur commitment to the scene...but he is right sort of...there isnt that excitement anymore...i thnk we've gone way ahead of ourselves...self destruction...
yea same here later pj1115

Thanks for the homebrew you gave the community, good luck with life.
Well see ya laterz alligatorz
Thanks for all the support, guys. Supergooman, I was never very good with 13375p34k... got the gist of it. As I said, my depression recently turned sub-clinical, but the main reason is the scene itself. It's more the generation of hackers than anything else; mine has been and gone. BTW watch this vid: http://unitedchaos.ca/files/didyouknow.wmv It's scary..
.........:[
i bet hes gonna kill himself
Surprised the trolls haven't hit yet. Usually there's a few lamers with the insensitive trolling comments. Anyways, don't know who you are, or if I've ever even been affected by your programming, but best of luck with the depression.
hope you return some day. i am greatful of your contribution to the community. It is because of people like you that this community has became and grown to what it is today. good luck on future endevures.
Haha: " » lol hes depressed i bet hes gonna kill himself" Depression is nothing to laugh about. Particularly when you're someone like me - someone who has lost 3 family members to suicide. So STFU.
thx for sharing this under the gpl licence this is something many people will appreciate =) best regards
thank you for your contribution to homebrew good luck!
Bye pj1115. I wish you best in life mate, and hope you might reconsider your decission and come back! Take care. :.(
I mean seriously , who gives a ***** ? , this guy isnt a dax nor a strmnnrmn , get lost!
I made my mistakes... got no where to run...
YO MAN!! WTF, the best is yet to come!! The best, matured PSP games are around the corner, and piKey is about to redefined the homebrew approach. So it's wrong to quit at this time because the PSP's GOLDEN AGE is about to begin!!! Besides I'll tell you something really exciting to work on : 3.11 DONWGRADER!! I bet scores of psp users will wet their pants with that ;-)
why am i logged in as "thugstation"? p.s. good luck with your future endeavours, pj1115
just promise to come back to work on a psp2 if it is ever released
im a ***** retart ima kill myself i like to suck eggs i like to jack off withmy tic tac *****
i hate myself im going to die now
yeah, there we go, he posted that while I was typing my comment. I knew they would come out. The predictable trolls. I hope m's parents kill themselves then maybe he won't find depression so funny.
I'm sort of friendly with pj, and I'm very sad to see him go. However, I know for sure that he wouldn't post comments like that. So stop trying to impersonate a great coder who contributed more to the scene than you will ever do.
Wow whats with the *****ers that are posting comments that say "Who cares hes not DAX". You know something? ***** you all. DAX ain't exactly the most precious person to the scene aight? How bout people like NEM or even better the person that created the original GTA Cheat Device! I mean everybody forgets him and ***** but taht guy is the most important person to the scene so far. Without Edison Carter we would have no 2.71 or 3.03 downgrader, we would have no homebrew on 2.01 - 2.70. Sure fanjita helped, don't get me wrong. But if one thing is certain DAX definately isn't the most important person to the scene. He's always thought of as so amazing, but you know something, I think we're all forgetting about Fanjita, NEM, Edison Carter, and Ditlew.
I am such a f*kin w*nker. Someone please shoot me for quitting stupidly. I am such an idiot. I deserve to hang myself.
He wasn't that great anyways. He's more of an annoying PSP3D reject....
stop you guys your makin me more depressed. Have respect please. No I will not work on psp2 if released. sorry.
WAT THE F**K LEAVE THE GUY ALONE YOU RETARDS THE PSP IS WELL AND TRULY HACKED THE GUY IS BORED LET HIM BLOSSOM IN OTHER S**T. WORK THE REST OUT YOUR SELF LAZY MO FO`S
If you lot want to take the piss, go do it somewhere else. I may suffer from depression, but I'm not on the very brink of suicide. And who's to say I won't come and work on the PSP2? If there's a calling, I may come back. Nem is the guy I admire most. Forget the custom firmwares for a minute, forget the ISOs, forget the firmware launchers. The first step is always the most exciting, and Nem is the guy who made it happen. (Along with the PS2Dev guys). Props. Anyway, back on topic. You may be discriminative inconsiderate f*ckers who have nothing better to do than to mock a mans' life and even it's very value. Thanks alot to those who ARE supportive.
GIVE THE GUY A BREAK PJ115 CHILL AND F**K ALL THESE NUBTARDS THE DONT KNOW ABOUT SHI* I HOPE THEY GET DEPRESSION AND THEN THEY WILL SEE OOHHH YESS THEY WILL SEE ALRIGHT
YOU KNOW THESE ASS HOLES HAVE GOT THERE HEAD UP THEIR OWN ASS AND WOULDNT KNOW WAT TO DO WITH A PSPIF THEY WERE *****IN* IT. SO PJ115 YOUR QUITE WELL ABOVE THEM AND SHOULD RISE. KEEP YOUR HEAD UP MAN. YOU WILL BE BACK, AND YOU WILL BE HONOURED
Well, whoever the REAL pj1115 is, if you're reading this... I give you, and all homebrewers my complete thanks. You guys make PSP worth owning. I appreciate everything you've done, pj1115.
TOP ONE. WITHOUT THESE PEOPLE THE PSP WOULD BE SHI* A STEAMING PILE OF COW DUNG
I am sorry to have to say this but i wish u wuld all go right away because i am his fiancee and i love him very much and he is going to be a million air one day and i dont think any of you wil be important enough to laughat him or be mean to him so i dont think you should now i love me MAN piers love sofi xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Ehm... no you're not...
Really there's sh|t enought on psp who cares about a low coder
He's mine! Back of! ¬RAWR!!! In all seriousness though, it's really sad to see you leave, but alas, I and many others wish you the best of luck in the future and in life. Ciao.
See ya! Thanx for all of your contributions to the homebrew community. At least a couple people appreciate you on this board. And all the ass*****s who are making fun of you need to go die. Or something. Here's to hoping you might be back someday! =]
So he's going to be a million air huh, does that mean he's going to have more air than the rest of us? That's called hyperventilating and is not good for you.
I agree that the homebrew scene is dieing All that the home brew scene is now is a firmware update every month or two, then a new version of devhook will come out then a day after a new firmware is released , It will be decrypted By team c+d Then Dark_Alex will turn it into a custom firmware by the end of the week. And i don't like what QJ net are doing with all of there news , All that will usually get posted on PSP updates is news about the new releases of games by companies like sega , EA and Rock star . And thanks Pj115 for making homebrew
Those of you who can't say nice things should keep your fingers of the keyboard, I mean seriously.. pj1115 has done more than most of you in here for the PSP system, so you should really think about what you're saying... I myself am thanking you for your great work and great homebrews! Sad to see you go. Bye
You should keep your fingers OFF the keyboard*
That's not nice at all. You should not be joking about that at all you douche bag.
why are you leaving just get some marijuana with a lil touch of cokaine and smoke it and youl feel a lot better and you can come back
I thought the top jump was for the top stories. Some guy enjoyed screwing around with his PSP and got bored with it and moved on to something else. Maybe he finally got a girlfriend. You guys take yourselves way too seriously.
pj1115, i don't trust any/a lot of those posts are yours. but if you read these, thanks a lot for all your contributions to the homebrew scene from someone who holds great respect to all off the contributions and contributers. i know what you mean... it seems as tho the scene has dimmed a bit in the last while. it seems like there isn't too much more to do, and all we can do is expand on the things we already have. dispite hating to see a great coder leave, i think that its good for people to get away sometimes. people who are mocking this are very disrespectful to not only pj1115 but it goes to show that very few are grateful for all that others do to give to us all like pj1115 has. SHAME on you! >:( thanks again pj1115, just wanted to let you know that there ARE people who respect all you've done. Farewell!
Sorry to hear you leaving and hope you get better, and also thank you so much for the src code I may have a go at improving them when ive got the time... As to those asshats, you are not funny and you should have a go at the PSPSDK and C++, you nubcakes would sh1t yourselves....
never heard of em.....
oh my god~~!!!!!!!!!!!!! i know u will come back dude!!! i love homebrew
Dude, i loved your OutaSpace program, it let me use nice custom XMB's and let me do all kinds of cool stuff. Have a fun time outside the homebrew circuit.
looking at his code he wasn't anything special. infact, in his "outa-space" code, he uses a bunch of if statements with gotos when a switch statement would be more advisable.
I still think MPH made the psp scene... But anyway, good luck man.
Thank you for all your contributions. I really wished that you would release the Final version of HideMedia with all the right fixes. i hope you will get better. Once again, thank you. PS: The HideMedia Fixer 0.1's fixer.exe is detected as a trojan virus.
We aint gonna miss u!!!
Goodbye. Thanks for all you've done for the PSP homebrew community!
bbye dude. thanks for the coding and good luck with the depression. focus on the nice things in life and go places and talk to people :]
i'm sure it's a shame your leaving the psp hacking scene, but wouldnt it be easier to leave through the backdoor and not make such a big deal over it,or even better just do what every body else does and take each day as it comes and not state what your days of tomorrow will be(or not be as the case maybe).
I also used to have mild depression, and I have known a classmate who had severe depression. These people do not know what to make of depressed individuals, they think they are broken or something. pj, please pay no attention to them. I think that people who suffer from depression are simply experiencing more thought processes than "regulars." Anyways, not to bore you, so my opinion is this: No matter what you believe in and what your future looks like, keep your head up high and remember that you will always be honoured among PSP'ers
My god... I'm so sorry +( M can go ***** himself! And I hope it works out.. Anything which is bothering you... Hope it works out, but you know... After rain comes sun +)
That's because it's a PE executable that I encrypted, it's all safe.
I know it's crude, but as long as it's functional, there's no problem with goto's. I was going to clean it up, but never got round to it.
Aww, so sad to read that. You're depressed and feeling neglected by the scene? Feel it's dying? May I ask which one of those apps really changed the scene? I respect you for making a contribution, but you'll hardly be missed. I mean you make it sound like the scene will now die without you. And what's the boring part? 3.30 ready to be hacked? Not like there still isn't a lot that can be done (like free VOIP extensions for one)... Looks like someone is just craving attention... somehow I sense a gf isn't the reason you're too busy... Some developers do become too legitimately busy with an actual life to work on homebrew like they'd like, but they don't leave a sob story... I'll shed a tear if DarkAlex ever drops out but I'm sure we'll make due without you, but all the best....
Troll do not feed.
xD this is guy is right !
cant forget mph..made the first 2.0 downgrader..thats was the most exciting thing that happened to the psp..especially if u started out with the 2.0 batch couldnt run homebrew without the downgrader or eloader..goodbye man i dont know if i ever used any of ur pg's but i bet they contributed to this community somehow..good luck with everything man..remember theres always therapy
Looking around, it wouldn't be very appealing to me to work hard trying to satisfy the community, only to face remarks from these sorts of ungrateful *****s. If anyone's destroying the scene, it's these fools. I personally appreciate whatever contributions are made to the scene, however large or small, and it's always sad to see someone leave. Best of luck man, I hope you'll conquer your depression and one day return to the scene. Thanks.
you say that but do you anything to contribute? no..u just sit back and wait for sh*t to be done for you if you do like some of these people on this forum then dont badtalk coders if u dont do sh*t..think about it..if it werent for these early coders the psp wouldnt be where it is today..and you know it..so keep ur bad comments to yourself..
dude ur missing the point..from this point of view you make think it didnt make a difference..but dude without these little homebrew programs and Great coders who seem like they didnt affect the psp scene..THE PSP WOULDNT HAVE CUSTOM FIRMWARE OR FIRMWARE LAUNCHERS..WE PROBABLY WOULDNT HAVE GOTTEN PASSED 2.5..WITH HOMEBREW..
that long post that said he was pj wasn't pj, this is because pj is registered dumbasses, we know if your faking
^^^^is not the real pj since because he is unregistered and the real one is registered
hey guys, wats up, this is a comment I see... hello... I'm bored now
Actually, the one that started "If you lot want to take the piss..." was me. I wan't logged in.
The homebrew scene is dying. I remember back when a good app could actually be used. Bout 2 weeks ago the homebrew scene was all XMB mods. Bout 2 years ago the homebrew scene was emulators and more. There are a few good homebrews out there (IrShell, PVNC, etc.) but the scene is going to *****, sorry to break it to you.
For f*ck sake, this was NEVER about me leaving. It was about the fact that I had released all my SRC behind. I never ASKED to be talked about like that. I never ASKED for QJ to even mention the fact that I was leaving. You can shut the F*CK up if you think I'm doing this for attention. If you were suffering from something which will kill 1-in-3 people who DO suffer from it, wouldn't you try and calm your life down? I never said I had coded anything groundbreaking. If there had been an incentive, even something as small as a bit of gratitude from the end-users' (for even the smallest thing), I'm sure I could have worked harder. I may have said the scene was wilting, but I sure as hell didn't say it wouldn't spring to life any time soon. And no, this isn't one of those things where I will be back any time soon. I'm not even going to bother commenting again. I know for a fact that all I'll get is abuse and disrespect. Good luck to you all.
You think you could do better than pj1115? Didn't think so! Think before you write something you stupid ass...
ladybug sex on my hand also bye
thanks for everything youve done dude, hope you can fight the depression. i think he's right, the homebrew scene is dying. there are no n00bs left, just *****s who wont give the time or patience to search and learn and people who think they are full of themselves. thanks for everything pj
I could fix it up for you in
what the ***** is your problem. pj1115 is way cooler than you, NOOB STOP *****ING POSING AS HIM what if he did hang him self for depression would you feel good how would you be able to live with youself so just stop it To the real pj1115 i apologize for all the *****ing retards here :)
And you're a nobody, you should get lost. It would make the world a better place. And, nobody listens to comments from losers.
Agreed. Nice post, at least someone can post intelligently here for once.
Who cares about you? Go jump off a cliff or something, it would make the world a better place you low class h0m0.
thanks for all the work you're done for the homebrew scene! can people please just understand, he's not wanting attention, he was leaving behind some unfinished work, and some of you are throwing it back in his face. if you have nothing nice to say, then leave it. thanks pj
Hells yeah! XD
Oh no what will we do now that whatever his name is has left the scean? I guess I'll just throw my psp away since there is no use for it any more. But be careful if we keep making fun of this guy (who ever he is) he'll get all upset and more depressed and my kill himself. oh well take some prozac and cheer up.
well........... honestly i've never heard of pj1115...... >.
later man. thanks for all ur hard work. hope ur back though
Props to PJ. I know him personally on PSP3D and he is a neat guy, if you're reading this PJ ignore all the 8 year olds here, they are the true destroyers of the scene. I'll miss ya buddy, -Gun335 (Maximilleus)
Great now he makes me feel like the community is worthless. Now I am sad :'(
There really isn't much excitement left in the homebrew scene.. We've already got everything we could need, XMB, GBA, GB, PS1, and everything in between in the emulators department, so why should I even bother upgrading to the next OE? The only reason I'm still comming to this site is for upgrades for Daedalus, the only really exciting thing left on the homebrew scene that has yet to be perfected. That aside though, there's nothing really left that I need.
he's better than u, how many programs have U released lately?
good luck... I enjoyed using ur programs... especially outa-space which allows me to use DevHook (best ISO loader there is)
