    News/release from Mr305

    This is an Alarm application which utilizes the PSP's Hardware Capabilities to set an Alarm that will wake up the PSP from either Sleep Mode or Powered Off (standby) mode. It is compatible with ALL PSP's including Slim & Light. Comes with an Easy to Use and Intuitive GUI design.

    Personally, I donot have a PSP SLIM to test but theoretically should work 100% unless there's a hardware change. (CONFIRMED WORKING)(Check the debug text)

    TO Stop Alarm when woken up from Sleep Mode: Press CIRCLE
    TO Stop Alarm when woken up from Poweroff Mode: Press SQUARE in XMB

    Main Features:

    + Runs on both 1.xx & 3.xx Kernels - Compatible with both PSP 2000(Slim & Light) & PSP 1000(Classic)
    (No need for 1.5 Kernel addon or 1.5 Fw (but also works in that)(The main purpose this was coded in 1 week)
    + Sleep Mode Alarm with support for custom MP3 Audio file.
    + Power Off Mode Alarm that plays sound in XMB. (Plugin Required - Seperate Package)
    + Uses 12 Hour Time system (AM/PM), no more Confusing time conversions
    + Display's Hour's and Minutes remaining as the Alarm time is being set; updated in real time.
    + Alarm can be set up to 23 hours 59 minutes in future, Check for (Invalid - Readjust message).
    + Alarm Accurate to the Second.

    Features for Usability:

    + Shows Seconds & Milliseconds
    + Aligned Time Display (Constant Length) Everything remains in place :P
    + Checks to make sure if an alarm was already set last time, if so, sets the alarm to that time. (Applies to Power Off Mode Alarm) - Reads time from ms0:/seplugins/HAPoweroffSupport.305 if it exists

    !!!3.95 Compatibility NOTE!!!:

    Due to NID resolver not working or some other Problem in 3.95 GEN-2... Sleep mode alarm works but Poweroff Alarm DOESNOT work, works perfectly in all other CFW (also tested on 3.40 OE-A Timemachine). It might be due to a change in 3.95 FW itself; can't tell.

    1) Try Pressing Left Arrow and Report back the two values what it says in 3.95 GEN or GEN-2.

    Because I switched back to 3.90 M33-2, I never had a chance to check the return code.

    2) If anything is displayed in the 2nd line on the top left, After waking up from sleep mode. Please report it.


    Custom Sleep Mode Alarm Sounds:

    -> Just place your favorite mp3 sound file as Alarm.mp3 in the folder.


    How to use/Controls:

    LTRIGGER - Time Display mode
    RTRIGGER - Alarm Set mode

    CIRCLE - Set alarm
    UP / DOWN - Change alarm time
    TRIANGLE - Slows down alarm time setting.
    SQUARE - Set current time +1 minutes.

    Start - Sleep Mode alarm (MP3)(if Alarm Set)
    Select - Poweroff Alarm (if Alarm Set)


    Last minute Notes:

    -> Anything I might have forgotten will we updated in the Release thread.
    -> Complete Source Code along with Alarm library will be released soon.
    -> I ended up doing ICON0.png myself, also the background file of the app.


    Hardware Alarm Power Off Alarm Support Plugin v1.0.11

    The way this works is checks to make sure, the current time matches the alarm time in ms0:\seplugins\HAPowerOff Support.305, which gets set by Hardware Alarm Interface main.

    Built with the same CORE as TimeBaby Alarm Helper plugin -- Hence looks similar


    Installation Notes:

    1) Copy included files to seplugins or the entire seplugins folder to Memory Stick Root.

    2) Enable in Recovery under plugins.


    Uses intraFont by Benhur (psp-programming.com/benhur) - A great font system!
    Uses pgeWav by Insomniac197 (http://insomniac.0x89.org/)


    -Enjoy.

    News/release from red squirrel:

    System Info Manager by Red Squirrel
    http://redsquirrel.forumitalian.com
    http://redsquirrel.pspgen.com
    http://www.psp-ita.com
    ---------------------------------------------------

    What's it?
    It's a simple VSH plugin with which you can "obscure" the system info (Firmware version and MAC Address), changing them with your custom settings.
    All can be customized by editing the conf_SIM.txt.

    Note: all changes will be ONLY in System Info page, so they are NOT real but only visual.


    Features
    -Possibility to change Firmware Version visible in System Info
    -Possibility to change MAC Address visible in System Info
    -Compatible ONLY with CF 3.95GEN (for other CFs use M33xEver v3!).

    How to install
    Copy the SEPLUGINS folder in the ROOT of Memory Stick and activate the plugin from Recovery MenĂ¹.

    Thanks
    To all people that ask me it.
    To Miriam for his big help with MAC adress and Firmware Version patch code and for his CF 3.95GEN!
    To my girlfriend for her patience.

    ChillyWilly who is also known as JLF65 here at DCEmu has released an update to Deniska`s version of the port of Rise of the Triad, heres the release details:

    This is my update to Deniska's Rise of the Triad for the PSP. I rewrote the video to support SDL and used my new SDL with TV support, so now you can play this on the TV. Since it uses my new SDL, it also has the proper pitch on sounds effects. I changed two controls to make them useful (one wasn't useful at all, and the other did nothing). Be sure to read the readme for all the controls.

    This comes with the shareware files and mini-instruments I used with Duke3D. Note that the shareware and registered versions are DIFFERENT EBOOTs! One executable doesn't handle both like with many other games (Doom or Duke3D for instance).

    Many thanks to Deniska for his work in getting it converted.

    EDIT: You need to replace the sawwave.pat file in the mini directory with the one in the archive. Although they are the same size, the one in the game archive slows the system down when playing. The replacement instrument does not.

    News/release from Mr305

    As I promised, here it is.

    It's my first time putting together a developmental library for other use; it may not be so professional enough. Personally, I wrote it for my own need, now it's enhanced for easy of use to others

    Considering the source of Hardware Alarm Interface Main
