3.03OE-A Released by Dark_AleX! Supports PS1 Game Compression!

[Psphreak]

This is awesome ! I got ffx 7 to 500mb!

Are you getting a flicker in the attack menu?

[sok98]

yeahh but ive only been in one battle so far lol just trying it now

[Veskgar]

Do you guys know how to add the ICON0.png and PIC1.png in the command line?? Dax says you can in the readme but doesn't elaborate on where to add them.

BTW: FF9-D1 was shrunk to 484 MB from 706 MB using compression lvl 9. Just so you all know...

I am going to hold out and hope for an update to the excellent PSX2PSP. Dark_AleX posted in Kingsquitters thread relating to his app and a new popcorn.prx so I don't think it will be too long.

I am going to hunt down every single one of my old PSX games and maybe go to EBGAMES or GAMESTOP to look for some cheap ones.

Are you getting a flicker in the attack menu?

Damn, that is going to be a problem as FF VII is one of the first games I will likely be playing. Have you tried compressing at a lower level? Like 6 or 7 instead of 9? Perhaps that might help?

Is the "flicker" only present in compressed versions or is it the new 3.03 OE-A that might be causing the game to do that?

If you guys are using psx2psp like me you can just compress eboot first and once u made it open it up in psx2psp and modify it, but im sure theres an easier way but thats what ive been doiing lol

All you have to do is put those files wherever your popstation and the other files are at (ie: Base.pbp etc)

I've tried with compression 6 and got the same thing. And yeah, this flicker appeared only on this update of the firmware

[DarthPaul]

already installed!! THANKS once again to the PSP God Dark_AleX!!!
well,i haven't compressed any iso yet,i think i'll wait for a GUI..

[jonezybaby]

On FF7 you can't see a difference on the world map. Before going into the battle those weird colors are there, instead you just see cloud standing there, then the battle begins. Also, not sure if it's the compression but there's an annoying flicker in the status menu where you pick your attack.

i got that neways from wen i was usin 3.02 OE-B so im used 2 it lol

[ninja9393]

cool, i will put this on my psp right now

iso compression is very easy! I don't understand why users are having such trouble with it? Just read the README and all will be made clear if you follow it 100%. I compreesed 2 iso's already and they run great!

Don't be afraid to follow directions and use the command prompt, its a very easy thing to do!

There's no slowdown during gameplay. IF ANY, a *very small* (as in unnoticeable) difference in loading times.

Decompression is very fast, it's the compression itself, ie: the time you take to generate the eboot.pbp with the game, that takes (up to a lot) longer than normal.

oh wow, so like just about no slowdown at top compression?
