LuaPlayer v0.20 Cools Mod with Flashing Capabilities

new release via SG57

Ok. Ive taken the liberty and modded lua player to allow you to assign, and unassign devices. This means you can now flash to flash0,flash1 and read from disc0 and even use IrShell's usbhost/nethost devices, all in Lua (however those may be used... maybe a better file browser? :S)

Anyways... This is a mod of Cool's Lua Player v0.20. Because of such a high bricking rate this may dish out, I put enough security, that the only way for you to get a brick, is if you, yourself, flash a bad file, be it corrupt, replacing a crucial system file, etc.

Ive now tested my example 4 times. It will first unassign the flash0 device/driver, than reassign it with write-read privelages. Than, it will back up your current 01-12.bmp (xmb themes image). Than finally, you press the [X] button to flash your own 01-12.bmp you want to replace your now old one with (but dont worry if you dont like the new xmb background theme, as your old one is backed up). It loads the one you want as your XMB background theme from ms0:/01-12.bmp, and the backup is saved the same, but with a .backup suffix.

Once done with it all, press START to return to lowser, or press HOME and go back to XMB and see how it looks.

Always a chance of bricking so be warned!

My God... What has he unleased?!

Lol! Dangerous. I don't think so...uh..maybe yes. But it was a good idea of making Lua a Flasher..[or no..?].

If it is a good idea, then it is a good idea to give a baby a gun...

I can see it now... " HELP!!! I bricked my psp trying to play lua-zelda, wat shud I DOOOO!!!" I swear those unexperianced in homebrew should just stick with a flash free lua player cause' theres no doubt that lua+flash+clickhappyhomebrewgrommit=instant-psp-brickage.
Nice app though, from coder to coder.
