    Where is the VBA Guide? These dumb questions, again.

    BTW, some dumb guy told me that there would be homebrew on 1.5x now.. He must have wrong info, eh?

    Well VBA is simply not good enough for a guide to be made of it (It should be playable before we make a guide). For Doom just through in all vital files in for example /PSP/GAME/DOOM/ then put only the eboot as a dummy folder in /PSP/GAME/DOOM%/

    *sigh*

    No there wasn't any plans for homebrew for 1.5x. Hackers can't get past the security. There was a downgrader being worked on by WAB and PSP Dev. But thanks to WAB's usual antics it was canned.

    By the way F34R how are you holding up with your house? I'm sorry about your problems dude. Don't worry about the guides.

    v2.00-v2.60 eloader through 2.0 exploit and GTA: LCS

    This is taken from the readme

    The recommended way to install is to use the new installer for Windows-based PCs. This is
    'eloader095.exe'. Just connect your PSP to the PC, then double-click this file, and follow
    the instructions to install the loader to your memory stick. Note that this will overwrite
    any existing copy of the eLoader 0.95 beta release, but will not interfere with any other
    version of the EBOOT Loader.

    Alternatively, if you don't have a Windows PC, you can extract the files from the eLoader095.zip
    package manually:

    - Extract all the files into the root folder (e.g. "F:\") of your memory
    stick. You need these files to be in the right place:
    \l_095.bin
    \tsr_095.bin
    \a_095.bin
    \README.TXT
    \psp\eloader\loadmenu095.pbp
    \psp\eloader\loadmenu.tga
    \psp\eloader\loader095.cfg
    \psp\eloader\gta200.nid

    Installing Homebrew:
    --------------------

    - Copy the homebrew you want to run to your memory stick. Usually, this
    means unzipping a directory that contains an EBOOT.PBP file to somewhere
    under \PSP\GAME\. The exact location and folder name usually doesn't matter,
    but for best compatibility you should try to use the same names as
    originally shown in the homebrew ZIP file.

    If the instructions with the homebrew contain separate steps for v1.0 and
    v1.5 firmwares, then usually you'll get best results by following the
    v1.0 instructions.

    NOTE: If the homebrew is written in LUA, you need to copy it to a subdirectory
    under the your LUA Player "APPLICATIONS" folder.


    The method for running eLoader itself depends on which version of the PSP firmware you have
    installed. Refer to the appropriate section below:

    Running eLoader : v2.0 PSPs
    ---------------------------

    - Make sure you have a custom wallpaper set. Any image will do.

    - Use the PSP's built-in photo viewer to open the "EBOOT loader 09" folder,
    this will cause the loader to start. If your PSP hangs at this point,
    then try the following:
    - check your firmware version. This loader is for v2.0 ONLY.
    - check that you have the loader files in the correct place (see above)
    - turn your PSP completely off, then back on again. The loader works
    best on a freshly-rebooted PSP.
    - try setting a custom background - some people have reported that it
    works better if you use a custom wallpaper (any image).
    - try 'touching' the TIF image file : see 'fixing up the file times'
    below.

    Running eLoader : v2.01+ PSPs
    -----------------------------

    - Load up the GTA game from the UMD.

    - Open the menu with 'START', then select 'Load Game'.

    - Select the eLoader icon from the list of saved games. Confirm that you want to discard current
    progress.

    - The eLoader should start after a few seconds.


    Using eLoader's default menu:
    -----------------------------

    - The loader displays a list of files in \PSP\GAME. Use the up and down
    buttons to change the current selection (highlighted in red), and X to
    open an EBOOT.PBP file or browse into a folder.

    NOTE: To load LUA applications, you need to run LUA Player first,
    which will launch Lowser and let you browse to open the application.

    - Once you select an EBOOT.PBP to load, after a few moments, the loader
    will either display an error message, or give you the option to run
    the application.

    - To exit the application, you need to reboot your PSP.
    The loader contains in-built support for rebooting, by holding the
    Left Trigger, Right Trigger and START buttons together for 1 second.
    If this doesn't work, then you can also reboot by removing the battery,
    or holding the power switch for at least 10 seconds.
    Note that sometimes after a software reboot, the loader will hang if you
    try to run it again. This seems to be much rarer if you enter USB mode
    briefly, before running the loader again.


    Using multiple versions of EBOOT loader
    ---------------------------------------

    Occasionally, some EBOOTs work better with older versions of the loader.
    In v0.9.5, for example, it looks like TerraIncognita is broken, but this works fine on 0.9.
    Also, LUA can be very unpredictable, working in some loader versions for some
    people, and other versions for others.

    From 0.8 onwards, the loader uses version numbers in the filenames, so that
    you can run multiple versions side-by-side.

    After installing v0.9.5, you can continue to use any previously-installed
    versions of the loader, if you have problems with your favourite EBOOTs.

    Default The best guide in the universe needs updates

    Back to these forums after a long absence.


    Last major update was 09/11/05... harsh

    What do I need to add to this guide?
    What firmware is Sony forcing upon us now, 2.5 or 2.6?
    Any important changes in the scene I need to put in here?
    May I get a sticky?

    God I'm so out of the loop.
