heres what the psp community did wrong...

remember his downgrader? All that money people donated and he didnt even release it. I'm guessing he never even bricked his psp. And then, about half a year later, he announces a psp emulator, and the psp community welcomes him back with open arms. QJ.net needs to check and double-check every file made by yoshiro in the future. This was not an accident. He did this on purpose. I can't wait for his explanation, that's if he doesn't mysteriously vanish or blame it on another member of his team :p
by - 2006-09-27 13:55:09
Ouch

glad I didnt have a need to test it yet (since it ran so slow). PSPUpdates (and other sites) needs to watch things like this and test more before posting files. I understand everyone wants to be the first to post news but think about all your viewers.
by - 2006-09-27 13:55:17


Why waste your time *****ing about this idiot and just forget him. He wants attention so lets forget him... This will be my last post saying anything about this loser.

yoshihiro works for sony thats what i say. SONY TRIES TO GET REVENG ON DEVHOOK

yes

I shat on Yoshihiro!

yup

aguycalleddave is right also great find LordSturm almost forgot to tell you thx.
by - 2006-09-27 14:01:18


Yoshirio is the worse PSP contributor ever in history. He could probably do nothing more than a hello world in LUA from what I understand. PSP sites all over the world should IP ban him.

what is GLP?

Green Laser Pointer? Government Loaned Property? Good Luck, Partner? How does "GLP" apply to the licensing situation that this PSP application is facing?
by - 2006-09-27 14:01:30


wow pathetic. i just cant believe anyone could go to that low..
by - 2006-09-27 14:02:01
hmmm

Glad I didn't try using the emulator...guess I was right to wait for the official emulator anyways, now that HENB refuses to load for me :( I think it didn't flash the small files properly to my psp...is there any way to remove those small files so that I can get the program to flash my psp again?

PSX-P flashes your PSP and stops devhook from running. If you use Devhook avoid using PSX-P for the time being.

NOW YOU TELL ME

i ran this emulator once before. Had to cut and paste the old memstick contents to my PC's HD in order for the Ace Combat 3 ISO to fit. I will test devhook now, and damn these guys if it doesn't work anymore
by pspuser129 - 2006-09-27 14:05:14
OMG

this happened to me i was soo mad, i didnt no wat was wrong my devhook wasnt loading,kept freezing yesterday took me awhile before i fixed everything...at least i no why it didnt work.omg
by - 2006-09-27 14:08:33
Doesn't matter

Yea this happened to me as well but I only just ''connected the dots'' so to speak.

Ahh...the French

Really, did you expect any less? Why do we keep bailing them out? BTW - How many French soldiers does it take to defend Paris...dunno, never been done before.

bloody french! cant do anythin right. anyway i think they did it on purpose

3.00 firmware upgrade

THE 3.00 firmware upgrade WILL BE OUT SOON. this is to fix the H.B. FOR GOOD!!! 3.00 firmware that will not, and can not be HACKED WE WIN, YOU LOSE, thanks Yoshihiro for all your hard work
by - 2006-09-27 14:17:50
People dont change

ffs, i thought yoshihiro had changed. seems he's the same old selfish ***** underneath. There was the time SXT tried to steal credit from MPH because of the downgrader. The time when they claimed MPH had stolen SXT's idea for the MPH Game loader. The time when they claimed full credit for the 1.50 downgrader to 1.00 (anyone remember virgin 1.5's?), when it was worked on by both teams. The time when he wrote "pspupdates sucks" in his readme as a direct jab at QJ. Devhook completly crushed both SXT Firmware Loader, SXT Version changer and even MPH Game loader. While MPH respects booster, it seems yoshihiro decides he cant take its success and decides to damage it. This is all forgetting the fact he hasnt released the source, and he is in trouble under the GPL license. I guess people dont change. I still respect matheleui (spelling?) though, he's cool. Yoshihiro on the other hand... pffft
by DarkLink5607 - 2006-09-27 14:18:50
your ases are saved

according to pspuser129's post, it eventually gets rid of that file in flash1 for some reason. I am not touching this emulator again until a) i get a 2gb or larger memory stick (which i want for PSP isos anyway) and b) see a new version released that does not write any crap to the flash memory. Looks like this emulator isn't as great as i first expected. Also i'd like to see some speed optimization like StrmnNrmn is doing, but it looks like that won't happen. Allow me to quote something from the release article: "This emulator is a port of the PC's PCSX so I wouldn't expect speed improvements to happen regularly." well, speed really sucks at this point! I'm sorry, but i can't ever use this emulator until it gets much better
by - 2006-09-27 14:19:35
Lucky Me

Good thing i didnt dwnload this. I feel sorry for all u other guys. This isnt the first time Yoshiro did sumthing bad in the homebrew scene. Remember the 2.0 - 1.5 downgrader?! He tried to get credit for MPH's work. Now hes trying to steal someone else's work also and make Devhook unusable. This is me looks like somone is very jealous of someone else's success.

Download old PSone emulator

Did the PSone emulator he stole code from work the same? I wonder if it also wrote to flash. I'll keep waiting until a reputable coder releases one.
by Lunar - 2006-09-27 14:21:45


That really does suck so much. I mean he obviously did it as a malacious act or he would of said that it flashed Flash1. And by the way. does the Button switcher mod only flash Flash1? I thought that was a Flash0 mod.

asdfsd

yet again, yoshiro tries to ***** people up, im not downloading ***** from him anymore. good thing I didnt dl this emulator
by nEcRo64x - 2006-09-27 14:25:41
Request

I have a request for QJ.net, DCEmu and every other PSP news site. Everytime Yoshihiro talks, releases something, etc... ignore him. I cannot believe how skeevy this jerk off is, it honestly needs to stop. This guy cannot be trusted, I would not trust one piece of code he wrote (or stole) on my PSP. I am glad that I did not try this emulator out or even download it. I do not need his personal beliefs messing with my PSP's flash1 or flash at all. Risking the bricking of someone's PSP as a sick joke really should not be put up with. The next time this guy releases something, just ignore it. Your PSP will thank you later. DevHook is better than anything he could ever hope to program in his entire life time.
by - 2006-09-27 14:29:46
Here is an idea Yoshhiro!

The next homebrew you come out with, put in a timed delay to brick people's PSPS! People will least suspect any wrong doing if their systems magically get system files from flash0 removed on say, a week from now! It would be brilliant and I think it could be pulled off easily. Heck, there might be a timed delay to brick your PSP right now embedded in your PSP's system. :)
by - 2006-09-27 14:30:52
a

X/O is a flash0 mod.
by - 2006-09-27 14:34:47


I can't beleive how many times this guy has been doing this, he started on box back in the day, and everytime he someone gets outs, getting his name everywhere... crazyness
by - 2006-09-27 14:38:16
ploy

Does anyone else think that it's possible that the legal and hardware issues surrounding this PS1 emulator happen just as Sony is hyping up its own PS1 emulator? This mess makes the homebrew community look very unreliable to possible homebrewers and downgraders.
by insa8ne2k4 - 2006-09-27 14:43:48
????????? DONT GET IT!

ive used the emulator, played a few games (tekken 1, tomb raider and a few others) BUT my devhook still works. im using a modded version of devhook, could it be this?? also, my devhook has been quite flakey recently, Stuff hasnt ran as well as it usually does. any way to fix this? or will a factory setting restore sort it (since its flash 1 not flash0)??
by - 2006-09-27 14:44:16


Find out the real Name and adress of this Gay ***** and release it to the web. I am rumainian and I will visit him with some friends next holiday - might be the last time U all hear from him.
by - 2006-09-27 14:44:54
ook

I knew yosh was crap since the whole downgrader incident, everything he does is crap he is jelious of dark_alex i bet, yosh is crap his work is crap Yosh just go back to living in your mother's basement and making trojans even tho you wont need them cuz u cant get a girl soooo
by - 2006-09-27 14:47:23
huh?

I used the emulator and dh works fine for me. what is everyone talking about?
by - 2006-09-27 14:49:22
paranoid

you guys are a tiny bit paranoid
by - 2006-09-27 14:57:17
What the hell!

I tried this on my 2.60 PSP hopefully that peace of s*** did not do anything bad towards my PSP. I think it mainly goes toward's 1.5 users but I might be wrong gosh this guy sucks at life...
by - 2006-09-27 14:58:13
Nothing so far for me

I'm under DH 0.44 (dont need the 0.46), and it's working pretty well even after using the PSXP. And I didnt have my buttons swapped or language changed. But i still think yoshihro is a f**kin noob :o
by - 2006-09-27 14:59:22
DIE

ILL RIP UR *****ING ANKLES OFF UR MOTHER *****IN *****
by yongobongo - 2006-09-27 15:00:20
Now, I'm sorry for the language but...

Yoshihiro, I am very disapointed in you. I think we can all agree you can go suck Sony's big fat d***. Sorry about that everyone. But what a lowlife? Trying to stop others from the joy of all homebrew emulated on 1.5 with a crappy emulator? Yoshihiro doesn't know diddly dog shi* about coding, just copying PSPSONE ain't gonna cut it. And don't try to blame anyone else for it, nooblet.
by - 2006-09-27 15:02:16
Tested 0.46, OK

Nothing for me, i've just tested with my DH 0.46, and i boot on 1.71 :s I have a jap PSP (1.00 origin) @ 1.50.
by - 2006-09-27 15:03:04
A SECOND PS1-P EMULATOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes you heard correctly!!!! i was at a UK site and they have videos of this second ps1 emu AND they say 90% of all psx games work!!!(even final fantasy 1-9!!! ) it's still slow but works better than the psx-p. and if your wonderin' why it's not posted here i don't know! anyways this is posted in: http://psp-news.dcemu.co.uk/ you can thank word- of- mouth!.....it's not out yet but atleast we have two instead of one ; )
by - 2006-09-27 15:03:25
disgusted ...

Who can tell here that yoshi has deliberatetly put a routine to write on flash1 ? He is a homebrew coder, not a virus designer !!! Don't you think a best explanation would be a devhook bug ?? I'm disgusted by your accusations ... Zx
by - 2006-09-27 15:04:17
umm...

Apparently this only breaks devhook if you use the flash feature, which I don't, so I'm good still. Really a low point for Yoshihiro though, hopefully he'll get over himself.
by - 2006-09-27 15:05:43


i got nothing to say but this guy- hes an idiot. First, fake downgrader. Now, trying to wreck devhook. I say...hes an a hole.

Only Devhook 0.46 loads files from flash1. This only modifies the registry files there, not on the MS.
by - 2006-09-27 15:15:47
asdfa

dude i cant beliieve this (well actually i can, hes a *****) god this guy is so jealous that he has to make peoples psps not be able to use devhook. im not donwloading anthing related to this guy ever again. you know how if you say a bad word it marks it out with *****? well the should do that with the word"yoshiro"
by - 2006-09-27 15:19:36


Well it is a good for Yoshihiro that no one know who he real is, other while he would have a line of people outside his door to beat the S**T out of him. As far as DevH goes, I'm using version 0.44 right now so I have no problem. I'm just worry about future emus or homebrews?

@52

Somehow I doubt that writing to the flash1 just so happened to be in the PC version of the emu. I also doubt it is necessary for the program to write to flash1 to operate properly.
by FLai - 2006-09-27 15:32:37
.

Well, I am ok, I haven't used the emu. Been too busy with my new DS Lite :)
by anonymous stranger - 2006-09-27 15:33:11
OMFFFFGGGG

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA OMFG I KNEW IT!!! Thats the main reason why I didnt even bother putting it on my mem stick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was like ... hmm mabie i should try... than.... NA yoshi prob made it so it brick your psp, but after no brick reported... I was ABOUT to try it... too lazy to take everything off my stick so still didnt... WOW LAZYNESS SAVES MY PSP AND DEVHOOK!!! HOLY *****!!!! LOL
by - 2006-09-27 15:33:56
yet again

first the fake version changer, then the fake downgrader, then the fake version changer that f*ck with flash, lastly the fake firmware 2.0 launcher... what do you expect? that something he released is actual good?
by logicbomb.de - 2006-09-27 15:35:46
hmmmmm

i happen to use a flash0/1 enabled version of devhook (which by the way refused to install to flash on 2 downdated PSPs UNTIL i upped to 2.0 then down to 1.5 with the sony eboot) and I haven't noticed any corruption issues with my flash1:/dh/ settings or anything..... yet but either way, great detective work by LordStrum (sp?) and I think im gonna uninstall flash1 files and reflash with a verified clan backup from my PC
by GiveHaste - 2006-09-27 15:36:08
Glad..

.. That i've never tried it.
