PSP Launcher Updates
greg | June 14, 2005
Sorry, there was a typo… it’s at 9AM, not 8.
We are fast approaching the release date of PSP Launcher and there are a few little tidbits to report on. The official PSP-Dev Team homepage has been taken down due to server load and replaced with a counter, counting down the time left until the June 15th 15:00 GMT +2 release date (Wed Jun 15th 9AM EST GMT -5 New York). Also a new video has been released showing a v1.50 Sony PSP being used to play Legends of Zelda you can grab it in our downloads section or by clicking here.

This isnt a “launcher” for dumped UMDs, its just a loader for homebrew apps. You guys cant inform…
Now thats a very convincing video indeed – just hope this is all real.
The Rat: The name of the program is “PSP Launcher” you will have to deal with that. You didn’t invent it so you dont get to name it, get over it. We didn’t say this will play UMD’s so far it looks like all it will do is “launch” homebrew apps. I think we inform fine, it’s your comprehending that seems to be the difficulty.
I think the name “Launcher” is confusing some people. Beside, it doesn’t matter what it does just as long as it works on 1.5.
Yeah, I don’t care what it does at this point.. as long as it works on my psp :)
i think this is THE MOST convincing vid i have ever seen. no glitches, no dark pausing moments and YES for those of you with hand fetishes there IS A HAND in this one.
this is awesome, but will all exsisting homebrew apps work on it
Ok…after doing the math in my head it seems that the release would be Wed June 15 at 10PM EST (GMT -5 New York), not 8AM. This is also shown by the counter on their site.
hmm…or would it be -7 hours? So I guess it is right…maybe I should stop smoking.
just did the math, it comes out to 8am eastern 5 pasific
15:00 @ GMT+2
That’s 13:00 GMT.
NY is GMT-5 so that’s 13:00-5 = 08:00.
The only way for you to get 10PM is if it where released on the 16th @ 5am thier time. So yeah, quit smokin! :)
As for the counter on the site, it needs to quit smokin too. I’ve seen it say something higher 30 minutes after I saw it the first time. Right now it wont even show. It aint workin right.
It’s a Java applet so it is most likely seeded by the time of the client machine viewing it. It will give different results depending on what your windows time is set to. It didn’t have a certificate with it so I dont believe it could have the time set on the server side. A PHP clock probably would have been a better idea.
To end all confusion over when it really is happening, it’s going to be Wednesday at 9:00am EST and 6:00am PST in the states. That is, if they stick to their time schedule.

Oops, forgot about the zero hour. Thanks for the update!
does anyone have this file in anything but avi?
if you do id appreciate it.
Was wondering why do i have these’s files on my PSP mem stick
.DS_Store
MSTK_PRO.IND
MEMSTICK.IND
FOLDER – “.Trashes”with files called ._501 along with a folder “._501″
mmmmmm just give us an idea how to use the pathc befor hangingout the file!*__*
Ok, im more and more scared that this is a myth. From now on, and until PSP Launcher comes out, I’m codenaming it Dracula.
seems their site is down
I just don’t understand why they don’t release it now, and give updates in the future.
ON that note why don’t they just make it open source NOW so every1 can have a look see. I can maybe understand why they won’t do that yet. Maybe they figured that sony doesn’t know of this hole yet (maybe not considering the patched 1.51 and 1.52 don’t work) … SO fuck…. christ by now i should have d/l this thing already and be playing some homebrew / emu stuff..
Im tired and sick of the PSP already. IM GREETFUL for all the people out there contributing, but im just so fucking pissed at sony for locking this thing up like a bitch with no pussy.
this thing is definatly not locked up tight it been out for 6 months and its been cracked that is a quick turn around considering its only been out in the us for like 3
good job all ye hackers keep up the good work maybe someday i’ll join your ranks for now its just hb software
holy jesus, so its true. without a doubt its been cracked! Hopfully the emulators will be up as well too tommorow.
pssssst. I’ve got a theory… He is delaying ‘Dracula’ to see if Sony will buy him out so he doesn’t disctribute it! AH-HA!
Well im happy for all of you 1.5 owners, good homebrew playing to you.Now we 1.51ers cant wait to see the same day comme.
How is the launcher supposed to load if nothing else loads? I mean did they crack the encryption?
anyone know if there is going to be a dreamcast emulator that would be sick
Playing Sonic Adventure 2 on the PSP. That would be tight.
OMFG!!! Their site has been suspended// wtf is going on!?!?!?!? I NEED TO PLAY ZELDA
Give the guys a pat on the back….We can all rock snes/genesis or whatever on our 1.5s..Can someone tell XPORT to start coding for the psp..that would be game over!!!!
Has anyone considered the server load this will induce upon its release?
I hope multiple sites grab there loader before their site overloads. Im sure this site will have the download here.
It says the account has been suspeneded on the site! :-(
I hope I don’t have to crack my PSP open and jumper shit inside to make a loader work!?
If Dracula actually does come out, just put up a torrent for it. That will handle the load, even if its only like 100k, theres little risk in it going down.
damn ill be at work i wont get the joys of trying it out early. o-well ill probably just download it when i get off and stay up all night and miss work figuring this thing out and what it can actually do with the homebrew stuff
O hell yes! site is back up, cool ur fears of it not being here tommorow.
The only bad thing about the video is that they clearly do not want to show the ‘hold’ button, meaning the video could be fake.
Including the memory stick and system specs pieces, they could all be part of that movie. It would take good hand/eye coordination, but if they really wanted full belief in the public they would have showed the ‘Hold/Power’ button
fez shut the fuck up
@38
Let him be, it’s his comment; and he does have a point.
it is kinda skeptical on how it sais it will give a tutorial
like Mcprime said hope we dont have to tinker with anything inside or ADD something to it
“OMFG!!! Their site has been suspended// wtf is going on!?!?!?!? I NEED TO PLAY ZELDA”
Have you ever thought of playing it on your computer. Derrrrr!
And why the fuck would these Spanish people being fucking with us. If anything but a working loader comes out of all of this, then the group is going to be royally screwed.
YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!YES!
Dave, the .IND files are Index files (It’s a sony standard used on CLIE handhelds) and the .Trashes is from your having plugged that Mem. Stick (or PSP) into a Mac computer at some point. That’s the Apple version of the Recycle Bin basically. The 501 thing I’m not 100% sure of the purpose of but I’ve seen similar stuff show up on my drives/flash cards/etc after using OSX to read/write so I’m guessing it’s similar. Not needed though for a healthy, functioning PSP. Feel free to delete that and the .Trashes folder if you want.
PSPANISH WOOOT FINALLY A HACK WORTH WHILE! EMULATORS ON US PSP! well whos with me!?!
Damn 1.51 update!! :(
the tutorial better not be in spanish
lol ya that would be funny
the program better not be in spanish
cant use google or bablefish for that
this sucks i’ll be at the school then… have to wait
ooohh…the site says they’ll release the tutorial with some other “surprise”…wonder what the surprise is?
geez, i am gonna act skeptical and think its a fake and think that they swapped psps during a pause in the video. Because i wouldnt want to be any of u happy people in the sky to go crashing and burning.
(but my heart beleives that it is true and i will be able to play super mario world on my psp soon.)
you know what would be the surprise? is if they made the link be a virus and everyones computer gets fucked over hahaha
*clears throat* K back to the real stuff, yeah this is going to be so great! 8 AM here, so you know what that means? ALL NIGHTER!
damn finals i cant stay up to download it right away
It would be the best if the “suprise” is that it works on 1.5.1 :-D but then again I may just be hoping 2 much… DAMN VERSION 1.5.1!!!!
If this works, and then Sony insists on future UMD game releases upgrading your firmware, that’s going to lead to a truly heartbreaking decision…. Homebrew software and emulators, or Crisis Core… *sniff*
i wonder though, will sony release a update later on that detects these cracks, and possibly disable our psp’s from lets say, internet games or such?
stupid finals, school shoulda ended last week, then i could jion the allnighter guy
ill join the alnighter guy
You’re actualy going to stay up all night just for this?? When was the last time you had sex with someone other than yourself?
that was funny !!!!!!!!!!!!!
hrm, never… :p
proud virgin geek here!
(sorry for the 2x post)
5 out of 4 people say sony is going to send them a cease and desist order an hour before the “release” and we will never see “PSP Launcher” from them and instead of everyone realizing what had just happened they will blindly blame sony all the more. Not that I like sony and maybe I am wrong on all counts, so we will see.
Who has time for sex with all those emulated games to play? ;)
I doubt Sony would send them a Cease and Desist order of any kind. If they were going to complain about homebrew software and such, then wouldn’t THIS site have been given such an ultimatum by now?
glitch, exactly how do you think Sony is going to threaten someone in a Latin American country? They have no power there.
10 minutes and counting…
Unless my timer is wrong…
hahaha its in spanish, all u guys better start brushing up on your spanish, viva españa, viva mexico, arriba y andale
8hr \
School ended last friday
Stupid timer… BAH… *L* It’ll be about 11pm here in Down Under Land…
well from the counter…it looks like there’s about 17 hours to go from now
i believe there is 8 hours untill launch
it’s 8hr EST Detriot Time.
The countdown timer is for spain it just goes on what the time is on your computer settings.
ahhh…thought it was a counter to zero…3…2…1…HAPPY 1.50 DAY!!
what is weird is that they are able to hack the 1.5 but they couldnt steal some code for the stupid clock so the java crap wouldnt be confusin everyone lol
The counter is certainly confusing. It’s saying I’m only 7 minutes away from the official release. :) (I’m GMT+9, btw)
HELP I UPGRADED TO 1.51 but I have the 1.50 upgrade file. I want to know if someone can alter the 1.50 upgrade to make the PSP read it as a new upgrade so THAT I CAN FUCKING USE THIS LAUNCHer!!! PLEASE HELP US IDIOTS THAT UPGRADED!!!!!!!!!!!
7 more hrs.
If anyone knows that program is needed to read these .pbp upgrade files can you please send me a link or a name of it so I can try to re-code this crap myself…..
thanks
mvpo, don’t you think that just maybe… MAYBE, if that was possible we’d all have downgraded to 1.0 by now?
yea but I haven’t seen anyone try it because there is no upgrade file for 1.0 think about stuff before you say stupid shit. There is no 1.0 upgrade file to edit, so HOW COULD YOU!!!!!
Still sayin’ it’s untrue. Perhaps tomorrow I’ll be eating my words. /Literally/ Good luck to you believers out there ;’)
It it’s true, I’ll pop like 7 boners. Then I might have to kick my mom in the face.
If I pop 7 boners, my mom is the last person I’m going to go to.
would there be any way to put a game like runescape on the psp and play on the internet using wifi
Dear Homebrew people.. plaese make a web broswer if this works. oh and where can i get dev. software to make my own prog?
so only 4 1/2 hours to go, where is are your psp’s?
Just want to say W0W to all the lame haters calling the video’s fake and making up reason’s why they were fake!!!
Next time just keep the Ghey opinion’s to yourself!

Oh dear, swapping memory sticks…
So there is no way to do this without swapping?
lost my damn cable, not going to be able to try until after work today
Excuse me, people from Spain ARE white people..
We’re European, you know, not from Mexico, Argentina or Venezuela… -.-
Oh, and as many have pointed out, the loader kit is out for download, go and grab it!
this maybe history we are witnessing
if it works, mem stick swapping is a small price to pay
is there a tutorial somewhere?
126 are u sure u didnt shit yourself i did
damn near
lol runner
does everyone here have yahoo messenger? If so, we should just start a chat room for this
i only have msn and aim lol
is anyone trying it now guys it looks like its only me then
im about to go buy another memory stick at wally just to try this
i might have to take my moms car while shes asleep and overdraw my bank account :-D
i agree 134.. my yahoo name is tjsosexy .. please dont laugh my ex from wheni was like 15 made it.. shit that was almost 10 years ago
yes until some one fries a psp because they swap at the wrong time.
So basicly we could have swapped with teh firmware uploader…..
hey anyone notice somethign here…..
if we get a 1.0 dump then a firmware writer, one mem stick swap once to reflash the psp wouldnt bother me…. but everytime i want to run an emu is a bit much…
just waiting for the ok it works then i will try it
ok, if you guys want to i made a room on yahoo called PSP 1.5 Exploit in the games section
i have londonkev@hotmail.com
ok, i’ll make one called the same thing on MSN, hang on about 30 sec
ok
well im matt9541@hotmail.com
hmmm…should i leave my house right now and go buy a 256mb mem stick (maybe 512 if they have them for $70) or order a 1gb and wait a few days…
if u have enough for a 1gb then go for that
yea i think thats what im going to do, a little bummed i stayed up all night with only one mem stick lmao o well it was worth it
Invite me to your chat too please.. morethan1code
How da fuck do i work it????
meh i tried it with the callendar app and it does NOT work, i will try again with an emulator though. all i get is corrput data
actualy why dont yall come on my ventrilo… divine2.nrgservers.net port 3530 password block11
Bollocks, need to get me another memory stick. They could have said it before it was release.
maby you needing a memory stick was the “suprize”? lol
this was a big waste of time, doesnt work worth a shit, and if someone gets it to work it wont work 100% of the time. not to mention how much of a hassle it is to do this on the go. HUGE dissapointment.
ungrateful are we? it was made in a different country..give it a day
sorry, i waited up for this, i havent slept in like 30 hours. forgive my unhappyness
i feel ya…i think the firmware dumb is the best idea
a hack that dumbs the firmware completely
fuck its doesn’t work(i think)
what destination do i send game to on my psp? ineedhelpplz
