I'm having trouble with the catagories option. I did everything the read me says, but they aren't showing up, I even tried shortening the file names to one letter (CAT_ as the prefix). Is there a certain way I'm supposed to format the txt? I'm just assumed it was a homebrew name per line.

Sry. I just assumed it was one homebrew name per line.

I apologize if this has been answered but I really need to know with this new 5.02 GEN-A cfw can we still use the 3.71 fatmsmod.prx patch? Because it really makes a difference on 5.00 M33-4 and now without it on 5.02 GEN-A games lag and skip again. I do not want to try it if I'm not supposed to since it requires using PSARDUMPER and overwriting a file on Flash01 so can someone let me know if they got the patch working on this new cfw?

Do not use 5.02 GEN-A its not recommended. Not all stuff is decrypted and leaves stuff to crash.

I recommend sticking with 5.00 M33, DAX will release a firmware update when its needed. 5.02 does not have any new features for us to play with so its pointless.

There is the Mac adress blocker for anyone who records videos with remote joy lite (or other by other means of recording), and thinks tha t someone would waste the time to hack them.
