No UMD update for M33 3.51 Custom Firmware

If your games arent working try this corruption fixer..
if still no luck try cpu speeds, advanced options and disabling plugins.
this no umd driver IS buggy and they are releasing a fix for it in the next day or two

dont mean to be picky but this site did used to be against devhook because it was able to use iso`s but now something that is meant specifically for iso`s.. even worse iso`s without the need for a disk in the drive is being touted as a great thing..
like I said I dont mean to be picky as youre a fool if you dont use iso`s but why the sudden turn around?

using isos with no disk in drive saves Battery life

gentleman lets just face it nobody does it better than dark alex-NO-HOMO:D

Yes,true. And I noticed that you guys forgot to mention in this thread,that it also has FASTER load times!! That's my favorite feature of the No-UMD!

Yes,we know that. But let's face this too: Dark_Alex worked for the scene for more than a year. These guys are starting and in their short time of work,they've reached even more than Dark_Alex did in months.

Yeah I know.. you dont have to sell iso`s to me Ive been using them as long as I been able to and I think no-umd is GREAT..
what I was stating was that a year ago if you mentioned the words iso and psp in the same post you would get abused by people calling you a pirate and that was when you needed a umd in the drive
whats changed?

What has changed?
Well by that time there were no much Iso loaders. But now,now everybody use Custom Firmwares and they have Isos loader built-in. So yeah,why hide it if everyone's using it?

thats one way of looking at it.. but a year ago we only had 1.5fw so devhook(umd and iso loader) was the only way everyone (without a modchip) could play any new games.. and devhook was nearly as popular as what Custom fw`s are now.. so realistically things havent changed too much.. if you want to play new games you have to use an app/fw that has an built in iso loader just like you did a year ago

Umm,you could be right. But DevHook wasn't as popular as Custom Firmwares ever. Also,I think that the problem with DevHook is that it uses some Copyrighted files that Custom Firmwares don't.
Anyways,Isos were never bad,and they still like that. What's really bad is the use you give to them.

just used the patch and everything
I started testing but only 1 of my games loads, Power Stone Collection, works flawlessly, i think the loading times are even faster.

but none of the other ones boot, coded arms, pinball hall of fame.

I think I'll stick to the "normal mode" (umd in the drive) a little longer until this thing its a little more polished or someone releases a plugin to switch modes so i don't need to go to recovery to play another game

The reason the no-umd OE driver is mantained is that the new m33 one is not 100%, it´s just a different driver that happens to work on some games where the OE one doesnt. Maybe we´ll see a unified 100% working driver in the future.
