3.30 OE Custom FW update: PSOne emulation! *UPDATE*

Posted Apr 10, 2007 at 10:33AM by QJ Staff Listed in: Homebrew Development Tags: Custom Firmware, Dark-AleX, Mathieulh, PSOne, PSPGen
Ó


3.30 OE custom firmware update - Image 1A couple of days ago, Dark_AleX mentioned that he had problems (UP failure) with his PlayStation Portable (PSP) and is still waiting for a new one. This means no 3.30 OE custom firmware yet. There's really no big deal in that, when you really think about it. What we say 'round here is you got to brick some in order to crack some.

Anyway, there's a new update regarding DAX's development on the new custom firmware. In our last post, we mentioned that should it ever come out, there will be "no new big innovations." However, we found out today that could not be entirely the whole case.

The beans were spilled by coder Mathieulh in a conversation with PSPGen's MaGiXieN, and according to him, while the firmware will not have any new big innovations, users might be delighted to know that a PlayStation 1 (PSOne) emulator has been integrated. The coder added that this was accidentally discovered when they learned that it is possible to regulate the loading time of PSOne ISOs. (The following is quoted from PSPGen, translated via weblator.)


Previously, in the old versions, the speed of the loading was done with identical compared to the PS1. Today, it will be possible, via an option, to choose between the original mode and an accelerated loading! We benefit from the occasion to say to you that the 3.30OE is in good way and that, DarK_Alex not having still a PSP, it still does not have there a precise date envisaged.


So there. Let's just wait and hope that the new custom firmware will finally be made without any more bricked PSP units from our well-loved homebrew developers.

UPDATE: Thanks to QJ blogger Pranav, we've been able to shed more light on just what kind of surprises 3.30 OE Custom Firmware will bring. The surprise would be in the emulator and not the emulator itself. Apparently, the surprise is a faster PS1 game loading using the new disc loading option. With that feature, you could expect to have faster loading speeds in PS1 games.

The disc loading option is actually included by Sony in their latest firmware and since Dark_AleX is currently hard at work with 3.30 OE, this feature would likely be included in his latest custom firmware. Keep checking us out for updates.

If the PSP isn't working anymore, and he is waiting on a new one (regardless of how it doesn't work), it is currently bricked. Bricked just means it can't work anymore at the moment, just sits there. Some people can fixed psps that are bricked because of firmware flashing, and some can fix psps when they broke due to hardware failure,....so if he's waiting for a new psp...its A BRICK YOU IDIOT

by Nicko01 - 2007-04-10 07:16

I think what they mean is that it's not directly emulating the game on other firmwares, it's just making the code playable through the psp's pops plugin. Now, it's an actual emulator, meaning it can do real emulator-type things like speed it up.



I'm not exactly sure though, but I think QJ is overreacting a bit :)

by mohaas05 - 2007-04-10 07:17

your just jealous you have to BUY all your games. No just kidding but still it isnt the fault of devs that people illegally use isos. using dumps of your own games is perfectly legal. its up to the end user whether they abuse that privilege or not. and don't call devs noobs. can you make your own custom firmware? Your probably couldnt even make a basic hello world lua program. and at least psp HAS an n64 emu. whats the best ds homebrew? some crappy version of ScummVM? Developers simply extend the usability of a console.

I own both DS and PSP.

I used to rank PSP lower because it was so f***ing boring before Dark Alex came.



Now, I choose my PSP over the DS. Because of the features that make the PSP so much better than what Sony would have done. Anyways, Sony has a long track record of limiting EVERYTHING.



PSP has so much potential, it was just sad how much of it was going to waste before DaX showed up.

Well said! Just one correction though, the DS already has custom firmware, in the form of FlashMe. It includes a few things, like a sort of recovery mode and skipping the health/safety text, like the OE firmwares. The downside is that you need to short a connection on the inside of the DS to install it.

what the heck is goin on here.

so many ds-fans on a psp-site? dont you got your own sites?



i agree: i illegally downloaded a few games for psp. yes i did it. after spitting most of them out, i bought field commander, killing zone, monster hunter, NFS most wanted and sid maiers pirates. i invested 230 %u20AC in sony and the game developers and i feel good with it, because the games are just very good and i knew what i bought.



when i imagine to buy the first five games, i intended to, ... god i would hate sony and never buy a game again. 45 EUR is way too much to buy a handheld-game just for its nice packaging and those well-organized "reviews", which are just another industry fake. i mean, do you really believe in ign/gamespot/game-magazines?

do you really believe in blogs?

its all about (guerilla) marketing. there goes the money in. not in the dev of the game.



this is why game development has become a very tough market for programmers/developers/designers/analyzers/etc.

its just for more profit. more profit. more profit. ergo

its bad paid. its minimal time to dev. it stuck.

investors want to keep the costs low, the result are mostly bad games, that should have been 1 year more in development, to become "okay". as you can see, this is short-minded. nobody is willing to pay 50 %u20AC for a game, which is just few bucks worth. and 90 out 100 games are definitely crap. EXPENSIVE crap. this is not the pirates fault. its the capital's fault.

and if 90 out of 100 games are crap, I WANT TO TEST. i am gonna buy, if the product is okay. but if its just a lie, i wont buy.



hackers heighten the value of a console. i know 2 people who bought a psp for its homebrew development and its hardware (screen,etc.). and wh0ja, they bought games, too. they play good ol' snes games besides that.



nds-fans:

i cannot remember that the psp-sales were ever over ds-sales. but i predict you somethin:

your system dies before the psp is grown up to full strength. because of us and of sony seeing reason.

Your Quote:



most of us are NDS fans.. cause most people that have a handheld have a NDS... people here are so stuborn.. jeez you need to open your eyes, and look at what is going on.. The psp needs help and hacking it is the opposite of helping it..





I bet yr NDS has flashme, passme, m3, r4 or ds xtream on slot 1 bay n u dun play downloaded roms? I dun think so. PSP sold so well bcoz of all the dedicated coder. It's the fact that this clearly boost the game sales. So b4 u say 'jeez you need to open your eyes, and look at what is going on', I say u stfu !

» to R4DS

yes i know DS has homebrew but it is no where near as advanced as PSP homebrew. the reason psp has lots of homebrew because it natively accepts memory sticks which are a standard in storage and it can be coded in familiar languages like C++. DS also has a non-flashable firmware so theres no hope for anything there. and the DS has very limited power and memory since it wasn't designed for stuff like playing videos and music or photos.

No company ever will hire DAX, because they are seeing how he is openly destroying a commercial product for his megalomaniac, self-agrandazing ends. For a company to hire DAX would mark their own death. DAX will never get a real job the looser.





The only reason DAX is hacking the PSP is for his own ego. Through his OE he has brainwashed and enslaved thousands of weak minds. Now I will never get back my $200 investment and my lost fun. DAX is the only reason Sony hasn't updated the PSP and developed more stuff for it. So cunning has been DAX dirty moves that even official Playstation forums are riddled with his dark purpose.



PLEASE LET US ALL START A MASS OE-REJECTIONIST MOVEMENT!!! LET US ALL GOT BACK TO SONY OFFICIAL FIRMWARE!!! LET US START THREADS ALL OVER INTERNET ABOUT OUR LOYALTY TO SONY AND MAKE AN OATH TO PLAY FAIR AND NOT HARM THE PSP!! WE NEED TO DEFEAT THESE HOMEBREW TERRORISTS DESTROYING OUR MACHINES, OUR FUN AND ROBBING US THROUGH SO CALLED "DONATIONS"!!! THEY SWEAR THEIR CRAPPY LAME GAMES ARE A JUSTIFICATION TO HACK SONY, AND MAKES US STAND AGAINST THE TRUE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPERS!!!



Only in this way Sony and developers will unleash the true potential of Sony and make beautiful, fun, immersing next-gen games. PSone??? What for? Those are OLD games, stalls innovation and new developement. Crappy old games emulators? What for? Again who in their right mind would wanna buy use a powerful $200 to play old games? I mean for christ sake do this with the shytti DS PLEASE!!!. Alex's name says it all DARK, dark intentions, dark mean, darkness all over.

Don't you even realise how stupid sony is? They are so out of touch with their customers they dont really care as long as they get some money!



You guys are complete dip*****s. Honestly. The one bad thing about DAX is the isos, otherwise homebrew has actually boosted sales. All the bricked PSP, a lot of people own two now, actually, as well. If the PSP falls its sony's own fault. They closed down a good business simply beacuse they sold white PSPs in eourpe? WTF IS THAT?! The psp has been granted a lot of other capabilities with media types thanks to homebrew. Types SONY denied us of. And how the hell would hacking destroy the PSP?! Sony has been releasing new firmwares with new capabilities BECAUSE homebrew. They have tried to expand and secure the psp BECAUSE homebrew. Grow the ***** up, you sons o *****es.



Seriously. Grow. Up. Homebrew has done nothing to harm the psp other than bricking some of them thanks to real *****s like you folks. And for the DS *****es, thats nice. You have your own site. Go prance around there. PSP and DS are two very different, and both very awesome machines. Big freakin deal if your opinion is that DS is better.

» Well...

The subject of this article is about an innovation of another way of regulating load times in the integrated PSX emulator. Which is, faster load times.



Sony, has since the release of PSP firmware 3.10, I believe, intergrated this feature.



Initially, the PSP's PSX emulator's loading time was originally designed to mimic the exact loading time of it's original Playstation console.



Even though...



Initially, Sony's PSP PSX emulation developers could have added the "innovation".



I think that I'll have a look at some of the 3.xx dumps.



Well, that's my rant.
