PSP: "PSP FW2.50 TA-082 SoftDown STOP NOW :P" =(

I knew this would happen from the start. As soon as I saw the news about his offer to downgrade people's PSP's and I saw the requirements I figured some idiot would come in and screw the whole thing up. I really hope that some alternative can be worked out. This is very bad news.

His blog is down too.

Wow this a bad day for the Homebrew scene.

**nyrtrublue** · October 5th, 2006, 00:26

Is he done with this project or homebrew as a whole j/w? Either very way its very upsetting.

**F9zDark** · October 5th, 2006, 00:31

False alarm, his blog is there: ookm.blogspot.com

I don't know if he's done with homebrew, but time will tell.

sup guys,

I have to admit that I'm a Qj fan first and DCemu fan second, but this is still the ONLY place I go to if I actually want to read/participate in intelligent discussions on anything PSP related.

Its really a shame that Ookm has stopped his softdown project, although truthfully I can't blame him - so many whiners, flamers and all around violent skeptics (you know were they lurk, i don't have to mention any initials) - of which I've seen few here at all regarding this - I might have even trashed the whole project just to spite the noobs!
The whole "scam" allegations being thrown around on the "other site(s)" have really pissed me off to no end.

I can also understand not wanting to release anything unfinished or unstable as we've seen even the most 'idiot-proof' downgrader being botched by failure to fully read/comprehent the readme - RTFM in full effect. No doubt the brick owners would have held Ookm personally responsible for there own actions.

In any case, I do hope that Ookm doesn't abandon the platform entirely and can someday strike back at the scene with an amazing release of some sort.

While I'm personally unaffected by this stoppage in the project (i have 2 1.5s) my heart goes out to all the ta-82s and hopefully devhook can be perfected to run 1.5 flawlessly as possible and still keep homebrew for the less fortunate non-DG PSP owners.

Ya, it is a sad day for the psp scene. I have high respect for Ookm and it is a shame that a few spoil it for all. I also hope he stays in the scene and continues any projects he might have.
