Firmware 2.0 Eboot Loader v0.8.5 for PSP

sooo... .rar stuff is illegal? if not, what is, and how do i get .rar stuff to work (i have like 10 things in this format but when i download it, it just comes with that one and only .rar file, and does not work.)

i'm very very new to PSP emulation / non UMD games and know nothing about them, their coding, source.. eboot... wutever that nerdy stuff is ya talk about. is there any step-by-step tutorials around here that could teach me this stuff?

EDIT: i have gotten about 10% of everything i've tried, to work. And, i feel that 10% is a very high number since this is mostly unofficial stuff. correct me if i'm wrong

Also, Fanjita, is there any chance that in the next update, the L + R + Start function to return to menu could be more time-forgiving? at the moment, all 3 have to be hit at like the same splitsecond. its not easy lol

*.rar stuff is certainly not illegal. It is just a compression meathod like *.zip. Illegal information can be placed in the *.rar file though.

SWEEEET!!!! bricked my PSP!!

saw on www.hackaday.com that if ya pluck the battery pack n power cord around 95%-98% thru downgrade to 1.5, u can keep the internet browser. it worked for every single one of them lol, well anyhow, i got my 1year warantee and the videocard was somewhat fried (about 3million of the 16million recognized colors displayed in very spicific shades of orange / grey). now i have a logical reason to exchange! :) "it just... crashed on me and never started up again!"

only problem is, i have no way to transfer off my 201MB's of personal info and... stuff that most ppl shouldnt see. maybe i can use my friends psp....

i have the Giga-pack ($300 total, or around $336 with tax--in CA) they dont sell very fast. I bet the giga-packs have lots of shelf life so when u get em, they wont be updated as much as you might think

Anyhow, i've already exchanged mine and its 2.00 :) already bumpin on Super Mario World n Doom

appreciate the concern

The .rar files are compressed files I believe. WinZip would not uncompress it for me for some reason so I had to download a program called WinAce to unzip it.
