iR Shell - Image 1


It's been a long while since AhMan released a public version of iR Shell, but it looks like the wait could finally be over soon.

iR Shell beta tester F34R sent us a tip that AhMan is currently readying the latest version of iR Shell for public release. While a definite release date has yet to be announced, it will reportedly be shortly after the new M33 firmware update hits.

The new iR Shell will also be compatible with Team M33's custom firmware. It will also have the features shown in the leaked iR Shell video. Here's a list of features added since iR Shell's last public release posted by iR Shell beta tester StoneCut:
  • Added support Team M33's newest custom firmware. If you don't want to update to M33, you will still be able to use this new release with older OE firmwares
  • Launch and multi-task with PS1 games from within iR Shell (works also via USBhostFS and NetHostFS)
  • Backup ISO plugins now integrated into iR Shell 1.5 EBOOT and 3.5x EBOOT (also supports USBhostFS and NetHostFS)
  • Backup UMD Video ISO support (some additional 1.5 firmware files required)
  • Direct switching between 1.5 EBOOT and 3.5x EBOOT via new shortcut combo
  • System-wide "Quick Exit" function to quickly shutdown games, homebrew etc and return to iR Shell
  • Improved Autoboot plugin
  • New Comic Reader plugin based on PSPComic for CBZ and CBR files by suloku
  • Added the ability to flash/blink the menu highlighting cursor
  • Added support for adhoc PC nethostfs connection under 3.51 EBOOT (some additional firmware files required)
  • Added a new config item in configurator to turn on/off the Music button for screen capture
  • Other bugfixes and tiny improvements

PSP-1000 complete

best homebrew news in ages. this completes the original psp's homebrew capabilities. this makes the psp slim so much more less attractive.

Yes, hardware upgrades. But why did you reply to this post?

TV Output Upgrade...

If you want TV output, you can always purchase the PSP2TV hardware upgrade.

Ahman NOT coming back for good...

It is important to note, Ahman has stated that he is NOT coming back for good and he also WILL NOT be providing support for this release. Just to avoid confusion.

I am so looking forward to this...

I am so looking forward to a version of IR Shell that works with M33 or OE firmware's features, I desire to try some alternatives to the PSP's standard XMB. Oh, and if the developer is taking feature requests, could he somehow add a feature that would allow displaying the PSP's wave animation or an animated GIF file in the background?

Works fine on OE

This is backwards compatible with 2.71 SE-C and all OE firmwares except 3.30 OE (because AhMan never installed that). So, it will not only work on the next M33 release but also on the old OE flavours. OE being more reliable than M33, however ... I think you may be wrong :p

IR shell is already working on m33-7

2006 Summer Coding Contest version of IR Shell works fine on v3.51 m33-7 CFW, just rename the IRShell folder to BOOT and BOOT% then use it when your PSP starts up in the homebrew BOOT settings.

true...

It works alright, but features were broken like game support and many others. This new release has an enormous amount of new features like the ability to load ISOS and UMD Video built in even through usbhost or nethost. The skins, appearance and other functionalities like playing playstation games have been added or improved as well.
by - 2007-07-25 21:14:18
Yeah!

Wow can't wait for this
by - 2007-07-26 07:39:03

Not by Ahman.

This is not ahman's work as ahman would never integrate a backup loader into irshell. Also, I am part of the BETA TESTING team, and there is no such test releases. ( I have access to a site only the BETA TESTERS can access. ) And F34R is not a beta tester...
