Hopefully Ahman will be kind enough to release source if he is leaving for good...!



Been waiting for IRShell support to move to 3.8 CFW!

its not a surprise hes leaving, when support for 3.71 came out it seemed he lost interest with his project. but yeah i hope he releases the source codes or something. atleast stone and all the admins at irshell.org is gonna get some relief for when is and why doesnt ir work.

After talking with Ahman in the private forums, Ahman is not certain when he will get to making the last public release. It is certain however that he is no longer developing iRShell and there will be very few updates for anyone in the future with no major updates. Its really about that time in most of our opinions (supporters and developers), Ahman deserves his retirement.



Don't be too upset if another public release doesn't come for another month or longer. If you didn't donate in the YEARS he has been creating the best homebrew ever made for the PSP, I suppose you never will. This is just a clarification that a public release has not been planned by Ahman yet and he has specifically stated that he is not sure when it will be prepared.

We're familiar with this game. People like this don't feel appreciated because they are always available, so what better way to stroke themselves by injecting some unavailability into the mix? It amounts to ego masturbation when someone says they'll "quit", only to return a week later with a Paypal account full of donations and a newly propped up self-esteem from all the regrets people express over their leaving.

Maybe we need a wake-up-call to appreciate them.

no, it sounds like ahmen is gone for good. head over to irshell.org, and look through the forums. From the sounds of it, ahmen is in the beta phase, and the firmware should be out in a few days, however it does not look like ahmen ever intended to do a 3.8 adaption, but decided to anyway. From everything that I have read the only really changes are specific to code used between 3.71 and 3.8, stonecut says in the forum, that it will also probably remove the firmware version checker, however, stonecut said point blank that the source would not be released, and not to ask, and the ahmen would be retiring for GOOD. maybe 4.0 cfw will fail with ni iRshell support, what a shame, but at the same time, I think under the limitations of the psp, that iRshell has already reached it's full potential. If you want to get upset about the incompatibility issues, get upset for whoever leaked DAX's code, because the NIDS probably would not have changed if it hadn't leaked :( iRshell works near perfectly and it's unreasonable to expect a developer to continue on something that already works just fine, ahmen doesn't upgrade your firmware for you, so don't blame him, just be prepared to stay on 3.8 for a while, until some predecessor takes his place, iRshell is not the only psp portal, it's just the best, and eventually something will replace it.

Making a scene with "retirement" AND deciding not to release the source?



Screw them, then. I think I even like the Daedalus developer more... and I HATE Daedalus!

URL is b0rked. Replace the '+' with '+' or just check out the 3.8 release thread.

Check out "Why iR Shell?" on the wiki (http://www.irshell.org/wikishell/). The list is missing a few recent additions (remotejoy, adhoc PSX, ...).

or maybe he just a life to live ? ...
