[NoQuarter]

Sweet, your awesome as usual DAX!!

[Buddy4point0]

sweet.
i don't really see why dax keeps working on his driver though, the sony driver seams to work perfectly for everything i've tried

[watupgroupie]

I've found it to be more stable on some games. Hardly noticable though. Might just to be so he can say he did.

I'm downloading now, great job Dark Alex :)

[Kagpan]

This might be a noobish question, but i'm running 3.71 m33-4.
Is there a difference between m33-3 and m33-4? or can i go straight to 3.90.

first off don't bother asking to get a staff position

if they see that you are trying hard to deliver news quick and efficiently then they will ask you to be part of a news position

and sometimes they don't even need new news posters (might want to ask them that as i don't know the current situation)

just keep doing what you're doing, believe me they'll notice

Now on topic

im just too lazy to update to this firmware, sure dax is doing it for fun and i support him (because what if he moves onto other console which doesn't have an iso loader made by the company?) but as a user of custom firmware this update isnt NEEDED right now

[mike_jmg]

Nice, great work

[blackrave]

All updates are welcome. Playing CSOs using the Sony No-UMD driver on 3.90 M33(-->) can be choppy, I've heard, so improvements to DAX' own is good.

I have not seen those newsposts as they seem to be deleted, but you should be aware that post quality is to be preferred over post time. Posting news first won't get you glory or whatever you're seeking, and no one can steal "your" news in that sense. Baboon posted a good news post. The staff probably preferred it over yours.

I beg to differ; the 3.90 update increased support for PSN titles (which means updated support for the PSOne emulator on the PSP).

And updates to how PSOne games run is always good in my book.

[Shrygue]

Yeow, it's ace to see Dark_Alez is still with us. Thanks for this wonderful update and keep up the great work!

[RevVS]

Yes, put this on my PSP last night and up from 3.71 M33-2.

So far so good. Thank you, DAX.

[YourBandSucks]

I downloaded this hoping it would fix my crisis core ISO from running a little choppy and to stop it from skipping from time to time, but that didnt work out so well

[josflint]

Crisis Core iso was choppy for me too, converted to CSO (compression level 9) & it seems to work fine but i have no idea why.(3.80m33-4, no-umd sony np9660 driver, 333mHz in umd/iso)

[Veskgar]

This is awesome. Nothing like seeing new activity from Dark_AleX. I recommend everyone apply the 3.71 fatmsmod patch also by Dark_AleX.

[limmk]

for those installed 3.90M33-3, you will see this under system information

[Ryupowerup]

for those installed 3.90M33-3, you will see this under system information

only on 03/33

[kryst abegnalie]

for those installed 3.90M33-3, you will see this under system information

yes ive confirmed it on my psp, well April 2 is really March 33, March 31 + add 2 then equals March 33 which is April 2, check it on your date on your psp, its back to 3/33

March 31 + 2 = March 33 = M33 = :rofl:

DA alos have humor in his firmwares, hehehe

hehehe, belated April fools!!

[LargoUsagi]

so if this is an april fools joke is there need to downgrade back to 3.90m33-2

[kryst abegnalie]

so if this is an april fools joke is there need to downgrade back to 3.90m33-2

no there's no need to downgrade to 3.90m33-2, be lucky if you witness the glitch or whatever in your psp, at April 3 your psp will back to normal, try it your self if it has not yet Aril 2 in your country, set your date and time to April 2, then shutdown psp, then see if all in your system information changes, but after that date, all backs to normal.

[bish]

made me smile this morning! ;-)

i gotta tell ya i love custom firmware. he is sooo creative and that is why i support open source and custom firmwares to the fullest
:thumbup:

[Veskgar]

Phew! I was worried. Just updated my Slim PSP today (April 2nd) and noticed the system information changes. Good stuff as always from Dark_AleX!

[insurgentstain]

I have 3.71 firmware and I didn't update to 3.90 because I though DAX was going to include the 3.71 fatsmod patch into hes next update. Does anyone know if this is included? Also I think I remember there is also some other patch to add to 3.90 to make 100% preformance perfect. But I cant be sure.

[Dembonz]

Whew. I was really worried. First thing I noticed was the "wave" geeking out, then the System Info... man. Good one DAX.
April 1st is never a boring day for gamers.:o

[Baboon]

Thanks for the heads up... I wasn't sure what was going on before. lol

[DaddyCool]

i believe that dark alex installed a file known as march 33 in the firmware if you delete this it should be fine

i think this is right because i seen a file called march 33.prx in the insraller or sumthing

[DaddyCool]

March33 NO-UMD driver compatibility has increased to support games like Coded Arms, Patapon, Harvest Moon Innocent Life and probably others affected by same errors.

[simonjhall]

Uh, not sure if this a common problem but none of my game saves work any more?
Went from 3.52 M33-5 to 3.90-3 and now everything's apparently corrupt...

[shorty_carnage]

(+.!_____!·:·)

We love your firmwares D_A

Iv had problems with some of my game saves too. anyone else?

[Goukix]

Ever since I upgrade to the M33 custom firmwares several games will no longer work for me; Ultimate GnG and Harvest Moon. I'm currently running 3.90 M33-3, still not working..

The firmware is great tho otherwise; very happy to see it's continued on.

[Kyros]

Hi all, just upgraded my virgin 1.5 PSP yesterday, been wanting to do it for a long time now but didn't have the cojones to do it...so finally here I am on 3.52 M33-4 and it's The Mierda so far but my questions are 1st and foremost did I pick a great custom firmware to start with or should I upgrade some more or stay on a certain one. Can anyone suggest a manual or something that describes what I can do with custom firmware and how to use it? Last but not least what happens if I were to restore default setting via XMB or change to another memory stick, oh and what's wrong with the LocationFree Player...By the way DAX is The Mierda. Thanx for your time.

[DHARQAXIAN]

Thank You - awesome, all hail DAX (*^_^*)

[wwboy]

TIP!: make a flash0 backup on your computer before you update so you can always get back without pandora

[kliffy314]

[Nokiaman]

Don't necrobump please.

[Shrygue]

Uh huh, there's no need for it considering there's newer custom firmware for the PSP.


With that said, thread closed.
