2.00 (when bought) n goes up down up down up down and repeat!

i dont see why u guys are so anal about downgrading to 1.5 and / or upgrading to 2.00

just get PSPsetX v1.0 from www.psp-hacks.com

safest way to downgrade, dont have to use that unstable photo exploit to trick the system.

I have mph, sxt and pspsetx just in case I ever want to try it.
It's not about the process...

It's because before ISO Loader every week or so you would see an update on a major emu/game/app (I remember Y posting almost everyday an unofficial Snes9x - and of course I know that with further deving, more work is needed for new releases)... Then UMD emus came... In a matter of weaks deving stalled... Instead of new releases in sites you would now see review of game or product, stuff about comercial and funny videos, lots of upcoming games and screenshots.

If you ask me these were really bad. Not only ppl were pirating comercial games (other homebrew were gpl and plder emus run roms that became free over time), they lost interest in the real "homebrew". There are many projects that haven't seen updates in ages. Great ports/original games/apps will never see an update again! With 2.0 and no downgrader then devs would have to code to the latest version (at least the new releases). It still beats me why not deving fo 2.0 if it would run under 1.0/1.5 (ok so the debugging environment is really bad and they would have to find new ways to do some stuff but in the end we would have homebrew that would run under every fw)...

I'm just sad I can't do any coding... Think everyone should follow ScummVM's example with that special 2.0 emu... I guess it mustn't be that much bad.

P.S.: Homebrew is not safe. In fact EXIT requires 2.5 to run and SONY is changing encryption with every update since 2.0. Maybe the GTA (or future game) hole will enable it in every fw (SONY cannot stop the machine from running the game and won't take them all back to fix them because $$$... Still newer fw could somehow fix these...)
