Im beginning cracking 2.0 . . .

[Cap'n 1time]

hell, Bliazzard is probably a billion dollar company by now, you know, warcraft series. Well im just saying that they tend to leave flaws in their programming that allow us hackers to take advantage.

So you could be right most likely, but i think that they must have left something out.

excellent point, the same is true for many. And I doubt that the people who are hacking Starcraft and Diablo II are the brightest in the world.

Nice one YourStillWithMe you have the right attitude.

Can't see that someone with no experience in coding will have much luck with this but I if we all thought like that nothing would ever get done. Thinking about it if we all got off our arses and at the least tried instead of whinging on at others we might stand a better chance!? (not having a go as I know many of you on this forum have 1.5)

Might have a go at it myself actually. Not bothered if I brick my PSP as it's a little scratched and I can get sony to send me a nice new one.

But where to start....

[robotdevil]

This may sound long and tedious, but I still say the key will be in looking into the similarities of the games that do run. I meaê the full licenced games. Even a random code generator will have a pattern, randomness (at least true randomness) is not something a computer can handle. It goes against all logic and therefore against the very foundation of computing (all processors/controllers have logic circuits). Therefore there has to be some similarity between the code in every game made for the PSP. Like I said, it's a long process of reverse engineering, but it could be worth it to someone who has the time.

On a different note, It's nice to see that no ones really flamed here yet, and that a bunch of ideas have come forward. I agree that someone with little to no programming experience has little chance of finding the secret, however their efforts, however futile, may shine a light for someone who does have programming experience but not the time required to get this job done. I myself am going to start looking into the files, but as I stated in an earlier post, I have VERY little free time right now (in fact, writing this post took all my time tonight ), but whatever I find will be posted here.

Good luck to everyone working on this hefty project.

I notice there is a Free game making took for 2.00, maybe the key in there. I will download it and see if I can find anything. Dose anyone know what language the system is compiled in?

That works through the Web Browser.

I think the web browser may be another good place to look at I've seen a gameboy emulator that runs in java

Heres a good example. The guys even left the source code!!

I'm unsure the true compatablities of the browser on what it can/can't run as i've left my PSP on 1.52 (damn euro) hope this helps.

It's written in Java,not javascript.

Im only interested because i have an idea for a wipeout pure mod.

Another step----I now know how to create my own game from an FAQ on pspupdates.com i just want to (for now) edit that game file to see if it will run on 2.0 I'm sure 9483050 other people are thinking the extreme and adjustin like 4583043932 things sometimes the simplest change is key. . .probably not but i think its a good start. . . I have not realy FULLY DEDICATED my time to this people its not like i sit here all 24 hours in the day and stare at my psp just to let you know this probably wont be cracked by me but i def try a good hour a day at least

Thank You All


ps-an idea i had but im not good at creating would be a website that allows the playing of eboots directly from them. Or a site that hosts an emulator possibly so you could run it straight fromt he browser? Stupid idea? I think so but the browser def helps our thinking a bit . . .


im spent. . .

[RedKing14CA]

ummm, isn't the update in the Flash? i mean, if you can delete the gameboot.pmf and such, why can't you delete all 2.0, or 1.51 etc. files? i mean..... hmm.... i guess it would be because of not being able to boot pbp's on psp.... hmmm
