HelloPRX (a PRX mod for custom firmware)

[Sousanator]

This is a simple prx for Custom Firmware, to load up on boot up.
When you start up, it will display a custom message(of your choice), then go to your regular XMB. Currently its says Hello in ASCII text, but you can can it to anything else, (Including ASCII graphics)


Add to the config.txt
# Extra PRX's to load on boot.
loadmodule0 = "ms0:/psp/system/Hello.prx"
or loadmodule1 = "ms0:/psp/system/Hello.prx"
or loadmodule2 = "ms0:/psp/system/Hello.prx"
etc..


Here is a video(Thanks mupet0000) of the PRX in action

This is just a simple personal touch for you PSP.

Please report any problems, and/or Bugs
Bug Report - This does not work with LordSturm's Casual custom firmware, This should be fixed in a later version
Bug Report 2 - AIOmod does not work with this

Tested with HargleyG's v2 custom firmware with SCE intro off, and works great

devhook works with custom firmware, you know
devhook is even better with custom firmware,
it feels like im dual booting now

[psp411]

wow i didnt know that.... i think ill try it now.... time to research. thx 4 the heads up:D

[Briggzy11]

are you posting in the right thread?

[ACID]

great app my friend. Keep it up.

[Squidman]

culdn't u just do the same thing and add it to DevHook, like add it the same way as the Screenshot/USB mods for DevHook? it just seems so much simple-er

yes, you probably can add it to devhook,

but this one starts for your regular XMB

[jak66]

to add it to devhook i think you add it to the pspbtcnf.txt file in the dh/<firmware number here>/flash0/kd/ folder, but some prxs can crash devhook, so if it doesn't work you have to remove it

[Prasoc]

Yay! Now no one can take my PSP and claim it is theirs :P

[doverkiller]

this is just damn inportant to have on the PSP :D

this is really nice! Just a small idea, maybe if you made this load up a png image or soemthing and maybe play a short 3-5 sec sound file. That would kick arse! it would be a custom splash screen entirely :)

anyway great work on this!

[Oni]

What is ASCII grafics?
could be nice if you could make some pictures with soundeffects, or even cooler if it was posible to make a small moviesequence.... then you could really theme up your PSP:p

ONi

that was going to be the direction i was going,,

but i think this was good enough for a first release

[Sousanator]

ascii graphics(aka ascii art) is like

____ ____ ____
/\ _`\ /\ _`\ /\ _`\
\ \ \L\ \ \,\L\_\ \ \L\ \
\ \ ,__/\/_\__ \\ \ ,__/
\ \ \/ /\ \L\ \ \ \/
\ \_\ \ `\____\ \_\
\/_/ \/_____/\/_/


or


___________
//' ___ `,\
/( <___"-" \\
',-,____ ""`\;'
',.--."> ,'
',,_.,'
';'

(there a bit distortet due to the forum, but look here for more http://www.chris.com/ASCII/ )

Thous are great love the little white rabbit.:eek:

[gamesquest1]

yeah i was also thinking would you be able to get it to show for longer.......also i wanted to know if there is any way to make a prx that would prevent thr psp from even starting without you password....even into a umd....i would love this as i know my psp would be useless if stolen :P

i can probably make a prx that will only start if you holding a certian button /combo
and if your not holding the button, it will just crash, and shut off

as for it to show longer,, when i tryed before, it just froze, but i probably did something stupid

Well maybe the custom firmware that is being made by harleyg will have a locking feature because as it stands even if a prx was made and it auto loads and stops the psp booting till password was inputted it would be pointless if you take the memory card out

true
but you can take the ms stick out, and it wont read the cf either

[gamesquest1]

no this new firmware that is getting made is all on the flash and completly replaces your old firmware....i know loading prx's on the current custom firmwares would just be disabled by removing the card so i hope the config for 0x89 is stored on flash or atleast the password bit i think this would be amazing infact i dont see why sony havnt done this i think its a really good idea.....maybe a button combo could also be considered much less likley for somebody to guess

.....yes i do sorry its probs incase people loose their password.

exactly why sony doesnt do it,
people are stupid, atleast sony thinks they are

[jak66]

if the 0x89 did have a password to use, it would be stored on flash 1 (easier to modify...probably) so it would still work if memory stick was removed, what would the point be of password protection being on removeable storage :p

for idiots who just stole your psp, and dont know a thing about it
(like taking out the ms)

[tophead420]

wow this sounds soo cool and i love the custom fw iv been waiting for some new mods and im downloading this now lol thanks for this and keep the mods comin

EDIT: i just tryed this and found out it will not work with the mp3 mod of slashers well i like the mp3 mod v3 better so yea maybe if this can be fix to work with the mp3 mod ill use but until then im not goin to but it is really cool tho:D

[crackkills]

great app keep going

[Sousanator]

try to put it as loadmodule0

if it doesnt work, its not my fault(meaning i cant fix it),
i contacted some devs, and its not my code that blocking the other mods

[tophead420]

lol ok ill give that a try but i dont think itll work but ill try and i was just wondering if it would be posible to make a prx that would allow a 1.5 user to use wallpapers i dont think it would be but its just a thuoght i had lol

EDIT: ok i tryted putting it on loadmodule0 and it loaded up this time but the mp3 mod wont work now ill just wait to see if it works on a later release if you update it but for now imma stick with the mp3 mod

[rhai]

bro, i have a suggestion, can you also try loading a pmf file? thanks in advance!

[psp411]

:cool:
Yay! Now no one can take my PSP and claim it is theirs :P
lol very true.... ittl b too easy to get back after all the "proof" ppl like us customize it with HAHAHA... mine says ma name now lol:p :D :cool:

yeah i want this as it stands im using somthing called wab skin changer which works fine but it some times makes the screen white and it also makes the little icons when scrolling through the games apear whites aswell but better than nothing.......also you must use the x-flash to remove the wavey lines and you basically have wallpapers that change every month But it would be great if there was a method that didnt write to flash

Hi,
good job,
I would find this plugin better if it could print something usefull.

For example some birthdays that would be read from a file made by a little app.
Or a picture.

or anything else, I don't know...

Cheers,

Houbahop

birthdays, on a startup???:confused:

this lets you put a custom logo of your choice on startup

if you want to put birthdays on the startup, you can do that as well

[houbahop]

Sousanator,

I was meaning,
that with an other program, you enter a list of your friends with their birdthdate, and when you take your psp to play, it reads the file and says you that tomorow or today, it's the birthday of your friend. So, like we all play a lot, we cannot forget birthdays anymore :D

or in the same way, a sticky note, like the phone allows you to do:
"I mustnot forget to go to buy the next psp game I need wich is released today in stores"

Well, I agree that the psp is a gaming system, not a pda, but.. that's the kind of small features that it seems that people love to have ^^

[Sousanator]

oh, i understand now,,
but i dont think ill be putting that in

[houbahop]

Ok, or at least, maybe a picture would be nice instead/with some text.

[Raekwik11]

nice progress.

[jonsicoli]

I'm using HarleyG's firmware, and the PRX's aren't working!

Here's what i have

# Extra PRX's to load on boot.
#loadmodule0 = "ms0:/PSP/SYSTEM/AIOMod.prx"
#loadmodule1 = "ms0:/psp/system/hello.prx"
#loadmodule2 = "ms0:/mp3XMB/RUNMEmp3.prx".
#loadmodule3 = "blahblah"
#loadmodule4 = "blahblah"
#loadmodule5 = "blahblah"
#loadmodule6 = "blahblah"
#loadmodule7 = "blahblah"
#loadmodule8 = "blahblah"
#loadmodule9 = "blahblah"

email me at [email protected] if you figure it out... please?

[el-camo]

hello, i have version 3.52M33-4 and i cant get this to work, can someone plz help me?

[Sousanator]

HelloPRX was made for the early POC custom firmwares, before OE even existed. Because of this, it wont work with the newer custom firmwares. But If you are insterested in a plugin that allows you to have you own intro, look up Cintro.

[el-camo]

o wow, haha ive been getin so frustrated with it for hours, wow omg....hhaaha, well so u say that will do it? do i hav to flash to get it to work?

[usp8riot]

Can someone please do an updated version?

I so want to hear the words, "Shall.....we......play......a........game" on startup with the same words. That would be awesome. Or some kind of reference to the hackers movie.

[el-camo]

ahhh i did the CINTRO thing and taht dosnt work eaither...., and ya tah "DO U WANT TO PLAY A GAME?" would b pretty siik, i seen dat movie haaha

[el-camo]

sorry for teh double post but , **** WHAT THE **** , I DID THE CINTRO THING HOW IT SAID ON A TUTORIAL AND IT DIDNT WORK , AND NOW MY FUKN PSP WONT READ ANY GAMES, IT MAKES A WEIRD NOISE WEN TRYING TO READ A GAME AND THEN EVENTUALLY SAYS "GAME CANNOT BE READ"!!!!
