Nekokabu Brings Us A Screenshot Module for Devhook

Screenshot moduleDevhook has been heaven as it is, yet Nekokabu has come up with a module that will make Devhook a more exciting application.

Nekokabu's add-on screenshot module for Devhook allows users to take screenshots from the games or the XMB via Devhook. In case your memory fails you, Nekokabu is also responsible for bringing us the N64 ROM Renamer.

Now, thanks to the translation of the screenshot module's readme file by QJ's all around wonder guy Jeff Chen, we can give you more info about this latest application from Nekokabu.

To install, copy the enclosed "screenshotbmp.prx" file into the "ms0:/dh/kb" folder. Then edit the following files:

If you want to take screenshots inside games:
  • ms0:/dh/150/flash0/kd/pspbtcnf_game.txt
  • ms0:/dh/200/flash0/kd/pspbtcnf_game.txt
  • ms0:/dh/250/flash0/kd/pspbtcnf_game.txt
  • ms0:/dh/150F/flash0/kd/pspbtcnf_game.txt
If you want to take screenshots in the XMB:
  • ms0:/dh/150/flash0/kd/pspbtcnf.txt
  • ms0:/dh/200/flash0/kd/pspbtcnf.txt
  • ms0:/dh/250/flash0/kd/pspbtcnf.txt
  • ms0:/dh/150F/flash0/kd/pspbtcnf.txt
Edit these files, put "ms0:/dh/kd/screenshotbmp.prx" under the line of "ms0:/dh/kd/devhook.prx".


Just like iRshell, to be able to take a screenshot, you just have to press the music button. On the sad note, taking of screenshots won't work in all cases. If this add-on to Devhook appeals to you, the download is provided below...you know the drill. Enjoy!

What the...?

do you just paste that line right next to the devhook.prx line in those files? I followed the instructions and now devhook doesnt work anymore, weird
by - 2006-07-03 03:24:17
Nevermind

I fixed it. I had one file which i forgot to edit, and also I edited those .txt files and pasted the line of code on its one line (rather than pasting it right after the previous line of code)

pics

where do the images end up??? what folder?

THANK YOU!!!!

Ive been wanting this!! I coudl never get irshell or pspshot to work with devhook or anythign, so this is awesome! thank you Nekokabu!!
by - 2006-07-03 03:37:25
what?

so, the code goes in its onw line, do u need to edit every single one listed for it to work?
by RaiderX - 2006-07-03 03:54:05
you paste that under the line that says devhook.prx

my cumps have those little box things instead of new lines, so i think i have to change all fo that for this to work. When I try ti, the mem stcik light flashes for half a second and thats it. So I know its trying. If its not that, I have no idea what it is And can we only edit the one in FW 2.50 if thats the onyl fw we boot in devhook? And those askign where the images go, I opened up the prx in notepad and foudn that the directory is: "ms0:/PSP/PHOTO/capture/"
by RaiderX - 2006-07-03 03:59:16
yes! i got it!

I looked at the readme, and it shows that it shoudl look like this: /kd/isofs.prx ms0:/dh/kd/devhook.prx ms0:/dh/kd/screenshotbmp.prx /kd/wlan.prx I had /kd/isofs.prx after the wlan one, so maybe other have this also now that it works, im happy, thank Nekokabu!!
by - 2006-07-03 04:16:35
yeah

thanks a lot RaiderX I had screenshotbmp.prx on its on line, but didnt put devhook.prx on its own line!
by - 2006-07-03 04:33:37
argh

nooo it still doesn't work! i see memory card light flash when i press the music button, but no image or capture folder in the photo directory...
by - 2006-07-03 04:44:25
FIXED!!

hey guys, here's a tip to add onto everything else discussed here for me, i had to manually create a folder called 'capture' in the photo directory before the images were actually saved there!
by - 2006-07-03 08:05:50
Worked Thanx

Yipp, nothing worked until I manually created the directory, thanx.

KB folder

Hmm, my DH folder doesnt have a KB subfolder, should i make a new one or is it just a typo in the readme?
by - 2006-07-03 08:46:59
KB is a typo

It's the existing KD folder
by DaRk - 2006-07-03 09:08:39
Works fine

THX for the tip to create the Folder capture!! Now its working fine!! I have upload a Rar File. Extract and copy over to your psp. I edit only the 2.50 txt Files, because i use only the 2.50 Firmware. http://rapidshare.de/files/24834175/screenshot_for_Devhook_41d.rar.html
by RaiderX - 2006-07-03 09:09:59
yea

I had created the capture folder manually also. and the typo too, might wanna fix that or someones gonna get confused
by StrawHat - 2006-07-03 09:20:40
Nice

Working fine here, will be able to get some screenshots and make some nice wallpapers from them now. http://img188.imageshack.us/img188/6953/snap0054qn.png

speed?

Do games still run at normal speed with the screenshot add on running?
by StrawHat - 2006-07-03 13:22:19
Yes

As you can see from my screenshot I was playing Initial D (racing game) and it played fine just as if nothing was in the background, when you take a screenshot, the system pauses and the screen inverts, and it just carries on as normal.
by StrawHat - 2006-07-03 13:27:31
More screenies (combined)

by RaiderX - 2006-07-03 13:49:25
yea, it uses no memory at all

it doesnt even run in the background really, it just sets an extra function to happen when the music button is pressed. It uses the same amoun of memory as the X button :P
