Are You Fed Up With Your Current XMB Icons? Why Not Hack It?

Nope, the image isn't fake. And yes, it is a screenshot of a hacked XMB. Are you interested yet?

We know our handheld's XMB looks fine and well already but changes are sometimes good. As much as you don't want to be wearing the same clothes every day and eating the same food every meal, we are pretty sure you don't want that for your PSP either. XMB Icon Hacking is a Lua application created by homebrew coder kgsws.

As the name implies, the application allows for changing icons on our XMB. It was originally made for 1.5 FWs. Although kgsws isn't sure if there will be complications with other firmwares, he suggested just the same to use custom ones so as to avoid problems.

Something like this I'd think would be ideal for DevHook. If you can emulate the XMB without flashing that would be great. If using something like this with 3.02 OE-B required you to flash away then forget it. The current icons are fine.

This does not work with anything else than 1.50 (at least according to comments on QJ).

By the way, I don't think QJ will be so happy if they see that the news is just copied and pasted from them.

But thanks for the news anyway.

I too think that this would be great for DevHook. Isn't it already possible? If you just copy the topmenu_plugin.rco into the correct folder?
