Can someone please help me?
I tried it on 3.40OE but the PSP will always crash when it try to initialize the USB - and yes i copied the two prx files into the Mapviewer folder. Without the two files it will just hang and show an error.

I do not have the PSP-290 right now, but i should get one next week. I just want to play a bit around before i get the module.

i have 3.30 OE-A and i followed the video EXACTLY but in my psp only the old 0.3 version of mapthis shows up and not the 0.499 version.

any ideas?

the only way i am getting it to work is using 0.497 and putting it in GAME330 folder with 1.50 kernel

this message is in reply to masc----did you make sure you got the 3.40 .prx not the 3.30 prx ? the video only supplies links to 3.30 .prx's

maybe you downloaded the wrong mapthis on the video on youtube if you look at the description it supplies links to MapThis0499_beta.rar

I had the same exact problem, but I figured what I did wrong. See if this works for you, put the mapviewer folders into another folder GAME340

so it should look like :/PSP/GAME340

i did this and it works fine for me



Anyways I just registered to say thanks for the tutorial, I have been working on this stupid thing for days!

so i need both prx files from 3.40 not 3.30?

and i should make a 3.40 game folder even if i have 3.30 OE-A?

or can i use 3.30 prx files but just make a 3.40 game folder and put it in there?

i'm pretty sure i downloaded the correct mapthis0499_beta.rar instead of the other 0499 file floating around here.

ahh no need to say thanks i had alot of trouble my-self putting the thing on my psp. The written tutorial on the dcemu website didnt mention anyhting about .prx's and it took me so long to figure out i need the .prx for my own firmware. I thought instead of other people struggling from the same problem i'd just make a video about it:thumbup:

if your putting it on 3.40oe fw you cant use the .prx's supplied in the description of the youtube video you have to get the .prx's for 3.40 oe i dont know where to get it if i did i would tell you. Your best bet would be to search net

I tried it again and works perfect now :)

Now all i need to do is to wait for the PSP-290 :)

tigerjk1410 follow the video exactly if you do have 3.30 oe-A but after that make sure your kernal is set to 3.30

after you do that the .prx's should work fine

if you kernal was set to 1.50 before becasue you were using homebrew just keep the kernal set to 3.30 and move all the homebrew's into the psp/game150 folder and keep the mapviewer and mapviewer% folders inside psp/game folder

ok so here's what i did.

erased mapviewer 0.497 from my MS
put mapviewer 0.3 in the GAME folder
copied EBOOT and system folder from 0.499 to the 0.3 and replaced them
put my prx files from 3.30 into the mapviewer folder
copied a map
changed kernal to 3.30
looked on the psp and only the 0.3 shows up and not the 0.499 :confused:
so i try moving the mapviewer folders from GAME to GAME330
now both 0.3 and 0.499 show up in the XMB
start up 0.499 and it loads
go to load a map and it freezes and then shuts off :confused: :confused:

i am starting to run out of ideas...deniska do you have any ideas?

so after all that...
delete the folders
recopy mapviewer 0.497 to GAME330
put prx files and maps back into there
start it up loads
map loads
gps starts up and starts viewing sats.

i have no idea what's the problem here.

the problem could be because of the map you created maybe you didnt wait until the map was done downloading? usually google maps download makes the maps then a few minutes later it compresses the maps then you can put it on your psp

also make sure your using the 3.30 .prx's since your psp is 3.30 oe-A right?

heres better directions for how you should start over if the above dont work. format memory stick first then change kernal to 3.30 and also set your HIDE CORRUPT ICONS to disabled and then follow t he video exactly

first of all I want to thx mhouse974 for making the video tutorial, I manage to get the Map This! and GMDL running smoothly (fortunately)

Problem: trying to get PSP-290 to work. I drove around and it finally pick up reception from satelites, but it's like 100ft off of where my exact location is at.
I tried to change the config's altitude from meter to feet (since i'm in the U.S.), but at the end it's not even moving/adjusting as I move around.
And, I have no Bearing & Altitude reading just "- -" when GPS is on. ><

Can someone help me to see what I need to do to make it works correctly?

Thx

September 17th, 2007, 06:04
one more question:

the new mapthis0.5, there is only one folder???!!!!
that is, the .zip document contains only the mapviewer folder. and what i did : copied the mapviewer to the GAME folder, copied 2 .prx documents to mapviewer folder, so the .prx documents and EBOOT.PBP are in the same folder.

run mapthis0.5 GPS edition under XMB, all the thing is alright except the gps lock on,,,,,,,,, never get locked on,,,,,:confused: :(


do we need the mapviewer% folder as before????

Hi all

Ive tried everything to get it to work and still nothing :(
I have a psp 3.71 M33-4

I have made a cable for the holux m1000 (tested the signals and look fine, got to work np with the computer)

Put version mapthis 0.520, the FW3.XX in the GAME371 directory, I have tried the FW1.00 in the GAME & GAME150 and it gives me a fault.

Anyone got any idea what i should do next? I'm really excited and keen to get this to work :)
