Half Byte Loader Revision 83

News via http://www.psp-hacks.com/2010/05/22/...r-revision-81/

What’s up everyone? The long weekend is here and it’s about to get a whole lot better — it’s Half Byte Loader (HBL) revision 81 83 for all PSP (PSPgo too!) models running firmware 5.00 to 6.20. Much has improved since we last covered m0skit0, Wololo, n00b81 and ab5000’s HBL. I’m talking mad compatibility with plenty of homebrew and emulators. Just take a look at this thread. Yeah, that’s what’s up.



How to install and use HBL:

Install the Patapon 2 Demo
Connect PSP with USB
Copy the “hbl” directory and the “h.bin” file to ms0: (copy them to the root)
Copy UCUS98732_DATA02 (Patapon 2 SAVEDATA) to ms0:/PSP/SAVEDATA
Copy your homebrew to ms0:/PSP/GAME
Load the demo, load the hacked save, load your homebrew.
Note: you no longer need to rename the libs folder or the imports.config file; HBL now detects what PSP you’re using.

Cool

Any chance we can get some links to the emulators and such that work for it??? I tried half the ones it showed in the video and most of them said something about a HBL Loop and then shut off, the nes and picodrive emus worked however.

One question and one request:
Any chance this will work with an actual copy of the game, or do we have to use the demo?
I feel it might not be a bad idea to include a link to the demo (if at all possible) with all future releases of HBL. Even if Rapidshare or Megaupload links have to be used, the ease of locating the demo would be appreciated.

This is great stuff. If this develops into more, as I hope it will so more emulators work, I just may be swayed into purchasing a PSP Go.

Here you go cool people of DCEMU.
