    psp Official Sony UMD Tools Leaked Onto Internet.

    Ive followed the news around various hacking sites and it seems its true that Sonys UMD Tools otherwise known as UMD Composer have been leaked onto the internet, the set contains:

    System File Editor 1.0
    UMD Image Checker 1.10
    UMD Image Generator 1.2.7
    UMD Stream Composer 1.5
    UMD Stream Viewer 1.5

    Youll need to have some good understanding of the Japanese language to use the tools and also because they are official tools they are illegal for any site to host or post a link to the files.

    Still interesting though.

    Well, this would not be much use to the ordinary PSP user. Especially since we can't buy blank UMD-RW's but hopefully a good exploit can come out of it. Possibly in the future it can help get newer UMD games working on 1.50.

    It lets you make an image of the UMD and burn it to a DVD to test it with an included app.....So its not that useless actualy.

    Kind of interesting this happens just as sony loses major players in umd sales and developers are shying away from the format

    No but it is pretty useless.. I highly doubt this will lead to an expoloit.

    Now, a leaked Eboot signing tool, that would be sweet!

    this is only for umd videos but it lets you make .pmf files, so you could make your own gameboot for instance.

    I have managed find these files over a torrent page...

    ...I found something a little more interesting however while looking for this, a beta version of Gangs Of London, I had no idea just how serious illegal games has gotten and how quick they are released over the internet.

    To keep on topic a bit, yes this can be used mainly for making our own gameboots so expect to see new designer gameboots around now ...

    You could not make a UMD out of this software so to be honest I think it is kinda safe for sony.
