Play PSP games on PC with Remotejoy GUI v1 |
Ó
Let's say, for example, that your PSP's screen is broken but you still want to play games with it. What are you going to do? Buy a new one? Maybe in the past that's what we're going to do but this application has the potential to change all that. Homebrew developer DeMoN X passed by QJ.Net PSP forums today and released Remotejoy GUI v1. Just like we said, this application lets users display the PSP screen on the computer making it possible to run games even in full screen.
Basically, the program uses plugins "psplink.prx" and "remotejoy.prx" via the Recovery Menu. Then certain .bat files can be called to view games in a window or full screen, and another for both with FPS display.
DeMoN X said that this is an initial release and as such, you might encounter some problems especially when you have other .prx files running. Also, the coder mentioned that not all games are compatible with Remotejoy GUI so you might have to do some trial and error.
Remotejoy GUI v1 should be used on custom firmware 3.40 OE-A only. You will also be needing Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 with this. The developer thinks that it might run on earlier custom firmwares but they haven't been tested as of yet.
Please take note as well that your PSP will lock up if a game uses a certain call to load files or directories off the memory stick that is incompatible with PSPLink.
Download: Remotejoy GUI v1
Download: Microsoft .Net Framework 2.0

Because EVERYONE can see enough to enable the prx files from Recovery mode WITH A BROKEN SCREEN.
Lol
sik man this is a great app. Keep working on it please i see many uses not just for games but also for mobile video and stuff
i was thinking the same thing lol
hey this is pretty rad, even with a working screen. could be handy for some of the hardcore psp developers (displaying on a bigger screen, less eye strain when working for a long period of time with the psp).
bravo!
good program
but it's have some bugs
when i press to loadvsh or loadjoy pspsh is closed
so i need to write them manualy so there's no reason to use this
and there's will be if he hide the windows for usbhost and pspsh etc.. and fixed the above bugs
any way keep up the good work
lol
i am playing on my plasma right now!
Finally I can watch UMD movies on a big screen! Or play SOCOM online with my computers screen and Logitech speakers and not strain my eyes. I wonder if there is even possibly a way I could use a keyboard or ps2 control (using pikey/ IR Shell) to control the game LOL. Although this sounds a bit ironic, to me it is great I can dock the psp with my computer and have a greater gaming experience, and when I rarely do need the portability, I can just slip the psp in my pocket. This is what I love about the homebrew scene. Furthermore, I’m sure everyone hates all the time it takes converting to PMP AVC format (however there is a great website called pmp-avc.com that has a few recent movies already converted for download as torrents). Along with the now fully functional pikey v0.3, which allows you to type with a Targus IR keyboard onto the psp, this is one of the most useful applications that has come around for the psp for me. Next thing on developer’s minds should be a real typing program, such as pspWORD LOL (Im serious).
How the hell? This program connects through USB.. unless you connected the psp first through the computer, and then connected the computer to a plasma using a PC input. Wouldn't the image be distorted when a 4" screen is put on a 40" display LOL.
what they need to do is make this so you can use your psp as a controller as well unless it always does that but i havent tried it so i wouldnt know but with the ability to play psp on a full screen would be pretty kool and still be able to use the psp and a controller pretty kool stuff
a plasma monitor
I can get it to show a screenshot of my XMB, but that's about it. I get a lot of invalid magic errors in USBhostfs.
Maybe I need to reboot after installation?
Will this program brick my PSP? I am worried about the "Please take note as well that your PSP will lock up if a game uses a certain call to load files or directories off the memory stick that is incompatible with PSPLink." comment, especially the lock up portion.
Sorry if it's a noobish question.
Display the XMB works fine. But i can't get it working with the Plugins. When I enable the psplink.prx and remotejoy.prx in the recovery menu, i geht this error message:
"Error 0800013B starting module."
Any ideas?
retard
i can get it to show the XMB on the screen but i cant figure out how to play games
you forget something: the thing is called Playstation
PORTABLE!
I'm getting a error, 0x8002013B starting module error, but if I disable the prx's from recovery, I get "connected to device" message in the USBHostfs_pc window. What's going on?
what hardwere type do i choose during divice instalation
you forget something: the thing is called Playstation
PORTABLE!
Yeah that's true, but as I said I do most of my gaming at home, not on the road, so the "portability" doesn't matter to me. And when the need comes, I can play my favorite games away from home unlike with a pc or games console.
i think you use the psp type B or A and i still need help on using it with games i enable the things but when i go to the games i dont see anything
does anyone know what the other BAT files in the download are for. The readmes don't talk about some of them. Also, does anyone know which PSP buttons correspond with which keyboard buttons?
awww hunny xxx its good you show consern for your PSP, love ya x lol
if you have the plugins enabled, it won't let you load usblink. It says so in the readme to skip that step.
this is a great app and has a lot of potential. but i cant start psplink when i have those two prx's loaded. it gives me an error.
you have to disable the plugins if you want psplink to load. After the "connected to device" message appears in psplink, load "start-pspsh". Then load the "start-remotejoy" thing. Then, go to the "start-pspsh" and type in "%loadvsh". Your PSP should now reboot. When it has booted up, type in "%loadjoy" in "start-pspsh". Maximize the "start-remotejoy" thing and you should see your XMB screen.
you're not supposed to use the prx's with the homebrew
dude, read the readme. It tells you what to do when the "connected to device" message pulls up (i think it's step 6). Also, you have to have the plugins turned off.
First of all, it doesn't say
Can't get it to load any game (both prx's enabled) pspsh refuses to connect / go to host0:\
The XMB/homebrew work but not games, not sure I'm missing something or if all the games I try won't work (valhalla knights, e3, djmax.)
k got this bad boy working....but it crashed while loading a game no big deal, but now I can not get it to work any more :(
Any one else??
Got it working again using killall.bat
New prob though will I enable the two prx files and try running Start-USBHostFS_PC.bat I get no connection.
*************** ******
* Game Instructions *
*************** ******
To set this up so you can view games on your PC's screen you'll need to do the
following:
1) Enable both plugins (psplink.prx and remotejoy.prx) via your Recovery Menu.
To get there you just hold down the right shoulder button while booting up
your PSP.
2) Do steps 5, 7 and 8 above. Step 6 and 9 are not necessary for this since we
are auto loading the .prx's via the Custom Firmware.
It's not guaranteed to work with every game and if you have any other .prx
running you might run into problems. If a game uses a certain call to load
files/directories off the memory stick that is incompatibile with PSPLink,
your PSP will lock up. Basically it's going to take a lot of trial and error
to figure out what games and other .prx's will work with this.

Ok i can't get it to show up that it needs to install drives and i don't know how to fix this
it beeps saying its connected but nothing happens anywhere
so where do the drives go?
Thank you for the reply. K tried your howto and still no go with connecting. Can only get it to connect via the homebrew app
It would be better if someone did this backwards. Make it so you can see you PC monitor on your psp and use your psp as a controller. Make all this work over wifi, and you can play pc games on your psp with glorious graphics. Imagine HL2 or Fear on a psp.
i think i know why maybe its causes it said only somegames work and we're trying all the games that dont work
Its been done but its an older app. It uses wifi to do it and i couldnt get it to work.
Got it all worked out now. Just have to find a game that does not cause it to freeze/crash
Homebrew I was referring to is the PSPLink app.
I'm still looking for a game it will work with without crashing it.
oh lol
do you have tekken try tekken and see if it workd or DJ max portable (not the demo) or grand theft autu liberty city stories
try either grand theft auto liberity city stories,tekken, and dj makx portable 2(not the demo) and tell me if it works
download pspvnc and put it on your psp then search google for tightvnc and install it on your computer then go to start programs ang look under tightvnc and go to luanch tightvnc server then set it up and save it then start pspvnc on your psp and make a new connection and on your PC move your mouse over the tightvnc icon and you IP should show use that in the configuration for pspvnc and now it should work.
has anyone tryed this with 3.03 OE-C?
Tekken Works, but you need to overclock to get a decent frame rate. It seems sending out the image through the USB uses a fair amount of CPU. At 333 it's playable but not smooth. BTW, DON'T USE WIRELESS AT 333MHZ
I can't seem to get games to work from Memory Stick... At least the ones I've tried.
read the whole article...it says to only use with 3.40 OE-A....people if you're going to read an article please read the whole thing so you won't make any dumbass questions like NlGathan
BTW, DON'T USE WIRELESS AT 333MHZ
Why? Is it a bad thing? :(
you have a friend with the same custom firmware, you could mimic their button presses and enable the plugin... still would be a major pain in the arse, tho
this is pretty sweet. My old psp has a broken screen and i got a new one, so i can just use the one as a reference to enable it
it doesnt hurt to find out if someone has tried it on 3.03 as it says it might work on other custom firmwares
big deal someone asked a question get sick of jackasses on forums
Has someone tryed it with 3.30 OE-A. If so did it work properly?
i got the VSH to show up. SWEET.
I enabled the plugins to try to run games, and i followed every step, but nothing comes up on the remotejoy window... in fact nothing is different, the games play as normal, except the psp crashes upon exiting. this is of course due to the plugin, so i'm going to redo everything on the PC's end...
hope this is of some use.
Oh man that was a nice laugh Munda, thanks.
After a bit of tinkering, I finally got it to work for my games (MGSPO at least). Unfortunately my PSP crashes or freezes way too often for my tastes.
This thing is awesome! I got it working finally after an hour or experimentation and trial & error, but it was worth it. Some games don't work, while others have side effects (GTA Liberty City Stories slowed down to 7 frames per second on the PC, while the PSP ran it smoothly). Apparently you can't use wifi gaming with it, as tested with Syphon Filter Dark Mirror, but Dark Mirror ran the game perfectly. It looks so great on the PC. I'm looking forward to future developments!
any idea why it just resets psplink & my psp turns off?
i get the tyranid credit in the command window but when it resets psplink it stays as it is doin nowt, i just cant get xmb to start on either of the psps ive tried
qj could have simply used "if you want to see psp xmb/games on a bigger screen" but no they opt to use people with broken psp screens, if you ever had a broken psp screen, there are things you could have already done like, 1 change it with a new or refurbished psp lcd screen, 2 send it to sony for repair, 3 return it to the store if warranty still applies or 4 some nasty thing we dont wanna know.
anyways this is just the GUI of the actual remotejoy homebrew application posted a few days back and it almost works the same except for the handy GUI for those finding it hard to follow readme on the original .BAT version. and sad to say its very picky on which game it will run, some games runs but slowdowns are still pluaging it. im not complaining though because this is a great homebrew and i hope the developer continues to refine this great software so that it can emulate the psp screen on the PC with faster and improve frame rate.
After the commands %loadvsh and loadjoy my PSP turns off...
Any solution for this problem? oO
Has anyone tested it on 3.03 oe-c, because if I upgrade to 3.40 oe-a Vice City Stories cheatdevice wont work.
I get the exact same problem, as I follow all of the steps but it doesn't show anything in the RemoteJoy window. What stage does the psp have to be in when you open the window? I've tried off (and turn on when RemoteJoy has been started), in the XMB and with the game running. No luck.
this programs lets you control your psp with ur keyboard..i heard some people were using joystick to control it! thats pretty cool
your pc isnt reconizing it as type b.
If my PSP screen breaks I think I'm still going to buy a new one.
Please, can you explain your steps to get it working?
Sometimes I can see the PSPLink OE screen on my pc, but then it turn off my psp (3.40OE)
Thanks!
I had gotten this working before, but still it's nice to know someone has created a very simple yet nice GUI for it. Acouple of things you should all understand:
- Games will play slowly if they're clocked lower than 333mhz, cause this makes for a lot of processing from our little portable, which results in lagging.
- Wifi/Online play should be avoided for now since it increases the already annoying lagging, making games less playable by the second...it also eventually locks up the PSP.
- Trying to return to the XMB via HOME button will also lock up and crash your PSP.
- Fighting and Racing games work best with this...I have yet to see a game as deep as Metal Gear Solid running past the title screen without hanging...but still, this is great work.
Keep it up!
I get the XMB to show on screen perfectly,
but when I try to use the plugins it won't work:
PSPSH.EXE shows nothing... the command screen stays blank.
When I disable the plugins and start PSPSH.EXE the command screen prompts: host0:/>
and after %loadvsh and %loadjoy everything works fine
can someone please explain why?
If you intend to play games on the big screen (PC) I suggest that you run the PRXs from the
background instead of running it through EBOOT. Just create a game.txt and have these lines in:
ms0:/seplugins/psplink.prx
ms0:/seplugins/remotejoy.prx
Now save this game.txt in SEPLUGINS folder in your PSP. Restart your PSP holding down the right
trigger to get to the RECOVERY MODE and then go to PLUGINS and enable PSPLINK and REMOTEJOY PRXs ONLY! Then exit.
Now connect your PSP to your PC BUT DO NOT RUN PSPLINK. Just start a game you're interested in
then go to the part where you are actually playing (get past the intros and all) then on your
PC start USBHOSTFS_PC startup and REMOTEJOY startp - NO NEED FOR PSPSH. Once you have REMOTEJOY
screen EXPECT A BLANK BLACK SCREEN. Just F3 to start the video feed from PSP.
And it realy worked^^
Okay... GTA LCS slows down with 10fps and after a race in Ridge Racer the psp freezed, but I think this will be fixed....;)
Does not work on MY Windows Vista
It works in the XMB with 3.30 OE-A' for me, but it doesn't seem to bring anything up for me even after following the steps for games in the readme.
Can you guys that got it to work for games (even after some tinkering) please post the steps you took to do so? Thanks!
I also tried the F3 when I had the window up with your steps and it stayed black and blank. +/
just install this before you break your screen
I don't see why you people can't get it to work after following the readme. Go to you psp and the PSPLINK, then run the Start-USBHostFS_PC.bat, (if the driver is installed right, you should see the message saying "connected to device") then run Start-PSPSH.bat, and then the Start-RemoteJoy-FPS.bat (any of those files according to what suits you). Now go to PSPSH windows and type %loadvsh. It'll restart your psp xmb then type %loadjoy, It will display your psp screen on RemoteJoySDL. Simaple as that!
Good for you, you can follow instuctions as well.
The XMB display worked great for me also!
However, to get the games to work on the computer seems to require some tweaking; to get some responses about that and not mindless newbie-bashing would be great! +)
OE firmwares uses ms0:/seplugins/conf.bin to see which plugins should be loaded and which shouldn't. Just fill it with 15 times 0x01 and all plugins will be enabled.
i have the same problem. but when i add the prx's from psplink to the seplugins folder (without enabling them either) it acts different.
Any one know how to stop this app from crashing while trying to load/save game??Every game that trys to load a save game crashes on me
hey for whoever got this working, what folder is your psp link in, what prx's are in your seplugin folder and what is your homebrew folder set to in recovery? and what prx's are enabled/disabled in plugins?
Will this brick my 3.03 OE-C North American PSP if I try it?
Will this brick my 3.03 OE-C North American PSP if I try it?
Well make sure you got a 3.40 psp.
Make sure you follow the USB drives setup. If you fail that then you can uninstal the driver from device manager, then try again.
After that it should work (in the plugins menu in the thingy thingy(recovery mode) only enable joythingy.thingy, disable the ohter one)
start the USB server thingy
open the app on your psp
start the other program (PSP thingy)
then start joy thingy.
in the other program (PSP thingy)
type %loadvsh, this reset the psp (well kinda reset it) it will keep the USB connection if you set up the drivers properly.
then type %loadjoy, and then joy thingy on your PC will display the output.
Some times it lags, some times it crashs.
I havent actually got a game to load yet (only tested GTA:LCS, WORMS, PRO EVO 5 and 6).
But this is damn good app.
Cant wait for the system to be flawless, then replacing the USB with wifi. then porting the whole thing over to OSX.
Great work.
Followed your guide, but still, nothing appeared in the RemoteJoy window. In a cmd window however, it said 'switch to full color mode' after pressing F3. That's all that was different to previous attempts.
yes, it will... sheesh...
I can now confirm that this works properly on firmware 3.02OE
ok i followed the instructions and i can get nething!!!
i get the same blank screen after loadvsh/joy
when i load the app it self i get no image on pc
again with PRXs on still no XMB
loading GTA LCS STILL NONE!!!!!
im gettin strest with this app
well to get gta:lcs to make it past loading saved game message I pressed f5 to dissable screen till the game was loaded then pressed f5 again to enable the screen
Dont bother with this app if you dont have usb 2.0
plugged into old usb 1.0 slot and was so slow like 5 fps
That's the same thing that I got when I tried it that way, and any repeated attempts just said 'switch to full color mode' again.
I can get PRX menu appear in PC but whe i try load any game from UMD or Memory card its shuting down PSP, i think some files are missing in this application, i think i will wait till the next version will be released >>
You have to enable prx's in se plugins with oe recovery menu. then run remotejoy gui app. In gui start pspsh and window or full screen. then start game and you should hear windows boing sound and it should be on screen. dont run homebrew psplink just the game the prx's load after game starts
I had to copy all prx's from psplink dir to seplugins directory to get it to work along with the game.txt file
So, do you mean you copied 'psplink.prx' & 'remotejoy.prx' to SEPlugins as instructed, but as well as 'psplink_user.prx', 'usbgdb.prx' & 'usbhostfs' from the 'PSP FW 3.XX OE\PSPLink'? And which ones did you add to 'game.txt', and which ones did you activate?
Thanks heaps, I'm so close to getting this working for a game.
I discovered how to get it to work... Finally!
To get a game running...
(you must have LibUSB installed first- read 'ReadMe-LibUSB.txt' for instructions)
The plugins you need to put into SEPlugins on your psp and add to game.txt are 'psplink.prx', 'psplink_user.prx', 'remotejoy.prx' & 'usbhostfs.prx'. You need to have them all activated at once. On your psp, start the game and get past the part where it loads from the MS. On your PC, open the GUI and press OK on the prompt, even though your psp isn't connected by the USB. Then click Start below the PSPSH image to start PSPSH and then choose a mode (windowed w/ or w/o FPS, Fullscreen w/ or w/o FPS). Plug your usb cable into your psp and computer. Instantly, the game should come up on your PC screen, as long as you have all four plugins enabled and your psp is in-game, past the part of loading from the MS. Happy... uhh... PC/PSP gaming! =P
Daxter - doesn't work, as with the plugins enabled, I can't load the save even when it's not connected to the PC.
Twisted Metal: Head On - Works, just a little slow when there are several vehicles on the screen at once.
Tony Hawk Underground 2 Remix - Works; and, at full speed!
