Dark Alex`s 3.03 Oe-c Released - Custom Firmware/PSX Emulator

[xxcolbyxx]

I have some playing issues with some of my PS1 games: FF 8 and Chrono Cross.

In FF8, it sometimes freezes whenever i get into boss fights. Does anyone else have this problem?

In Chrono Cross, sometimes during menu selections or enter/leaving towns, the screen goes completely black and i can no longer play it, forcing me to restart.

Does anyone else have these problems with these two games? Should i install the new 3.10 oe?

i have 3.03 OE-C and my psx games work fine but any homebrew i try and run it just plays the gameboot and then freezes on me and turns off.. its al in the 150game folder. i have been using this since it came out and it has worked all the time but it just randomly happend today.. i tried reflashing OE-C but it still has the same problem.. i dont wanna upgrade to 3.10 OE yet till the topmenu is fixed so i can use my icons. any idea on whats happening with it??

EDIT: all fixed now. when it wouldnt work i continuously checked to see if any plugins were turned on but it kept saying that they were all disabled and i checked other settings. after formatting the memory stick and putting things back on, reflashing a few times, restoring defalt settings a few times i was really pissd off so i just put it on charge and left it for the day. i came back to it later to try. still didnt work, checked the plugins again and it said my screen capture plugin was still enabled =S (which it said was disabled before). i turned it off and everything worked fine

ok um im upgrading my second psp 2 3.03 oec from 1.5 and it is taking forever at the extracting and packing 3.03 firmware step i mean like atleast a hour so far ne ideas why?

Maybe you have a dodgy memory stick whitch results in slower data writing speeds? I once had a rubbish 32MB one and it took absolute ages to generate the DATA.DXAR file (and I eventually binned it seeing it wasn't very good).

How do I got from a TA-082 3.02 OE-B to a TA-082 3.03 OE-C?

[Shrygue]

Spanishnugz, you can upgrade straight to 3.03 OE-C from 3.02 OE-B. Just download the custom firmware package from the very first post of this thread and make you read the readme document contained in the zip archive.

if you ever want to return to 1.50 i'd recomend using one of dax's downgraders to return to the firmware you had before you downgraded to 1.50 just to be safe.

np for the help always happy, just dont rush anything and dont brick your psp man!

GOOD NEWS!
I successfully upgraded...

BAD NEWS...
To 3.10 OE-A....
There is no Popstation....
How do I get it?

[Shrygue]

Diplomat223, if popstation isn't included in the 3.10 OE-A package, get it from the 3.03 OE-C one right HERE.

I see, is there a guide out there to install and use it properly. Im going to google it right now, but I just want to be sure.

Sorry for the numerous questions.

alright so i updated and now im at 3.11..what the hell should i do to revert.. i heard of a 3.11 firmware dumper. would that take it off..

also do i have to go all the way back to 1.5 then all the way back up to 3.1 oe c

thanks

also, if i have the writing on my motherboard on the top right of it when i open my UMD slot, does that mean i can downgrade or can't?
