THATS GOD DAMN AWSOME! I GOT IT WORKING TOO. Thanks psp-dev and all others that worked hard to achieve this breakthrough in psp hacking!

Go digg this story! click here

:o)

WOOT WOOT!! Now….what can we do with it? Are there any aps yet???

WTF how do i work it????????

first idea, write something that will flash the firmare to version 1 so we dont have to swap…. now theres a good idea….

wow, so simple, took us 3 months to do this! lmao

Thx for your support

how big is the download? we talking kilobytes, megabytes or gigabytes?

gig’s : )

Does it say corrupted data on the MS2 for the launcher for you guys. Also i just tried it on my 1.52 IT DOES NOT WORK.

I hope there will be some real psp hacks…very uncomfortable trick. Perhaps it´s now possible to downgrade the psp. Lets see…

THIS DOES NOT WORK!!!!! I did everything as instructed and in MS1 the data is fine but MS2 is corrupt. Yes i have 1.50. Dunno, maybe their instructions are whack

where do i find the tutorial and I cant extrect the exe, file from the zipped file?

the download is a gig?

To get this working, you gotta generate the pbp file first, then get 2 memory sticks, put ms1 in the first memory stick and ms2 in the second memory stick, and make a folder for PSP-DEV in I:/PSP/Game on both sticks, then you take the first memory stick, and select the psp launcher on the first stick, and quickly swap to memory stick 2, it should work

Primero Me gustaria Agradecer a PSP-DEV ..And it does Work .. Follow the Instructions

If this is the best we can come up, with we’ll never crack 2.xx

Nope, it just freezes at the psp loading screen and boots of my psp. DO NOT TRY THIS, it could very easily fry your psp

Let me rephrase my above statment. Following their instructions, you get corrupt data error. Following Kamishiro’s instructions, the screen freezes at the white PSP loading screen and powers off in 10-15 seconds.

On 1.52 you get 80020148 is that what the rest of you get.

^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^

You should not get any error at all, this is a swap trick and the way they make you do it it freezes your psp. Unstable, inconvinent and unsafe.

It works fine for me. You will not damage your PSP. And, it was confirmed a few days ago this was to only work on 1.50 – not 1.51+.

Do with 1.50 it freezes your psp. With 1.52 you get an error message then Sony relly did patch the psp. Also people with routers. Go to network update and you’ll see the 1.52 has ben released in the US but on the offical psp website it’s still 1.51. i know it was a good thing a bought that 1.00 psp on monday.

nah I dont like this. this is not what I was expecting. Ill go buy a 1.0 on ebay. I mean, thanks for the effort guys, but this is not what I was waiting for. I dont want to be a memory stick swap artist every time i need to play a game. Ill spend some extra bucks on ebay for the 1.0 before they disappear

Works fine for me. I got version 1.5. Ok the swapping aint the handiest thing on earth but they managed to proof that 1.5 is crackable. For now I enjoy homebrew by swapping.

Plus if you have 2 psp you can use one for new games with the firmware update feture and the other one for homebrews. Also if this is the best exploit for 1.50 how are we ever going to crack 1.52

how will an emulator work, saying that on MS@ you have a the emu and then you save the roms on it aswell..work?

how do we put any games on it and where are the games avaiable

^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^

Yah, same thoughts here. even if i do get it to work i would have to be EXTREMELY fast to swap them. i really doubt people are going to go for this, converting the .pbp files every time is a hassle, most people only have 1 memory card, for the price of a new memory card you could trade in your old psp and use that money to get a 1.0, and finally as stated above i really dont want to be a “memory stick sawp artist”

Come on guys this is just a start now that the proof is out there others will improve it, it can only get better from here.

Cant find insructions and dont know what to do with the file I am stuopid, someone please help (what exactly do i need to work this)

Can some one explain which eboot.pbp i need ? – i havnt a clue which one it is …

now that i think of it, this is like what everyone had to do with the ps1 which was very hard to do…..

Shade – You need to put the eboot.pbp of the program you want to use into that converter

I still have my swap disc to play ps1 imported games.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh – thanks m8 :)

IF the only exploit we found is a hardware one, are there actully any exploits in the firmware THAT WE CAN USE!

huzzah lost my extra MS

this is terrible, and by the way, i cant get it to work yet. apparrently i still need to improve my memory stick swap abilities. im not even trying anymore, 1.0 here i go. whoever bought a 1.0 you are lucky, you dont need to go through all this

guys, i would be very careful doing this, as i stated a few times it freezes your psp which COULD be fatal depending on exactly WHEN it freezes. i would only try it once or twice but more could just jepordize your psp

I installed the program on my tablet pc, and when it restarted, my tablet was not activated so I had to wipe my harddrive and reinstall…

I just checked ebay and almost all of the 1.0 psp’s are over $300 and i bet the other ones are going to get up their soon. I’d buy a 1.0 before they become very expensive.

SSJDemon: can u just STFU?

ssjdemon got a point here, this freezing doesnt look good for the psp

THANKS

can anybody answer my question which type of games can be played and where do you put them and download them

no, i will no shut up. I stayed up over 30 hours to try this so called hack and it is total bs. i am very tired and pissed off, and i rant alot when i am in that kind of mood

jonathan: this doesnt allow you to play retail games, it is supposed to let you play homebrew stuff

ssjdemon youre right, we were kinda tricked with this. 4 days to release this “thing”? come on, couldnt they release it right away? by the way, the first video the released then was FAKE, cos they didnt swap anything there

i know tht but where can i get this homebrew stuff

ok, can someone just flatout give me the directions from page one? i dont want to screw up but i want it to work. and dont speak all technical please. im trying to get snes9x v0.02y10 to work if it matters.

hehe! how stupid: he stayed up for over 30 hours… for what!? a gaming console!? get a life, freak!

Yeah, I was exited, but they never mentioned it was a swap trick. I hope they get a non swap release out sometime.

where d you get homebrew somebody help i gettin crazy here

There isn’t an actual loader yet, so you can’t play .iso files or disc images. If you had a blank umd you could write the file onto it. Also i would imagin since sony said they weren’t going to make umd, it wouldn’t have any protection on it.

no, i was up for about 27 hours WORKING (ever heard of it) anyway and i decided to stay up the extra few to try this out. thank you everyone who supports me. i think im gonig to go to bed now

you can get it right here at psp-hacks under the sownloads section

sorry SSJDemon, i misunderstood! working is fine…

GOOD NIGHT and get so LUCK finding 1.0 psp.

This has been so fucking overhyped it’s not even funny. It’s actually disgusting.

can someone please answer my question? its #51

ssjdemon im with you, this sucks.

read the .pdf

do the homebrews on the download this site work with this exploit and where do you put it

This works like a charm – no sign of messing up – goes straight to emu – bril !!

jonathan go get a 1.0, this sucks. believe me. it is not worth the effort. im not gonna be swapping memory sticks every time i want to play a game, i wanna have all my emus on 1 memory stick and thats it. i cant believe some ppl are happy with this

i dont have time and money to got lookin for a 1.0

when i try to open the png it asks for a password

can some1 plz answer jonathans quest 64 cause i would like to know too

ill answer, go get a 1.0 this sucks

question^

u wanna fuck off cause i wanna know

Worked fine the first time with the Genesis emu, but got the white screen lock-up with SNES…. And even if it did work, what a pain in the ass…. I’m hardly going to fiddle around swapping memory cards around on the bus, am I… Not to mention that it well could be hazardous to either your PSP’s health, or your expensive card.. I’d congratulate the team for their efforts anyway, except that if they’d TOLD us this was some kind of pain in the ass swap trick, we wouldn’t have all been as excited as most of us were. Major let down.. Major.

swapping realy sucks
takes long time
but this is a start i hope new one is on way !!!!

What part of this is “BS”? I’m sooo sorry but it was your choice to stay up that long. The Dev-Team said they have hacked 1.50 so it plays homebrews. More than half of you guys cry about it and yell BS. If I were them I would have said fuck you all and kept it to myself. Well it’s out. And IT DOES WORK. Just because it doesn’t work how you wanted it to doesn’t mean you have to wine about it. You treat the dev-team like there some type of Sony support. Please stop your bitching, if you don’t appreciate what they have done. You may never see anything improved. If you don’t like how it’s currently setup then just wait. Please do not bash people because they are talented in a level which you are obviously not.

This isnt what i expected and yeah the video was a FAKE because they never swaped anything. Also do all Japanese PSP now come with 1.5? Cant we just import a PSP is there like a way to tell if its old enough like a serial number?

hey wiley where do u put the emulator on the mem stick to run it?

im so confused lol?

thanks ps2-dev excellent stuff but saddly 14 dead pixels and swapping relegated my psp to the trash in small bits

might buy another one in 2 years time if sony ever make proper screens

for those that have gotten it to work…does your MS2 show “corrupted data”?

i’ve already tried twice to use the MSwapTool and i get corrupted data for MS2. when i launch from MS1 and switch to MS2, it freezes at the PSP logo…then shuts off my psp.

someone please help

there seems to be a lot of ungrateful people on this….
if the swaploit aint good enuff for you… then crack 1.5 urselves

this is a royal pain in the a ss and this could harm your psp and your memory cards. do i call this bs? YES I DO
and yes the first video was a fake

Run the program and click ware the “edit tab” would normally be. Then click English.

theres also alot of confused ppl like me lol

Thanks for the PAIN—-SPAIN!!!

the pdf is asking for a password, what is it?

You people are ridiculous!

will the ppl who keep complaining so the confused ppl can ask questions plz go to bed u are all obviously tired lol

thanks for the pain spain lol

lol im tired to cant type a proper sentece will the ppl who keep complaining plz leave now!!

did anyone get SNES emulator to work?? mine froze and turned off after 15 secs

For those who say the videos were fake. THINK about how the sequence in the 2nd video went. You see the emu running FIRST then they go and show you the firmware version. They never showed the swap because it was already running.

As to those who think this is inconvenient, I mean people swap on the PS2 all the time and they hardly moan about it.

how the hell do u work this swapoit????someone help!!

thanks a lot for the swaploit. running nes emu just fine. followed instructions, and everything worked great. once again, thanks for those that figured this out. much appreciated.

kinda weird if no-one can get SNES to work cause that’s the demo the guy showed, playin legend of zelda

satoru i said the the FIRST video was fake, not the second

Props/Thanks to the guys behind this, but I’ll be damned if the pdf isnt a little hard to read- can someone rewrite a “how to” post in the hack forum? Please :)

No the snes one isnt working yet – the sega one works perfectly fine for me, guess there are still a couple of bugs to sort out – they only need to put sound on the sega one, then i wont mind too much. When snes one works thats gonna be awesome – its still only just come out tho.

The Serial # starts with 530 or less it’s 1.00 unless they upgraded it themselves. At 550 it’s 1.50. 540?

The scoop on 1.0 systems:

Japanese PSPs only had 1.0 from December through March. Any systems that have been new since then have had 1.5 or later. The only way to get 1.0 systems now is to get them used. I suspect a lot of the “new” PSPs on Ebay are anything but new.

ok, it’s probably just something with the snes emulator…because i’m running the nes one fine. wooohooo punch out on my psp!

anyone have any luck running Snes9x_002y10? i really wanna get snes running

Hey, umm, I downloaded the .rar file, and, ummmm, how do I use it?

unzip using winrar, noob

where do i get that?

#100 correction they were only Sold December – March

google winrar

Ok let me explain it, I was among the confuced. Step 1: download the file fromg PSP-DEV :p Step2:Open the program MSwap Step 3: Put the EBOOT.PBP file from a homebrew in the ‘Fichero Pbp’ place. then the other blank is where u want the output folder to go. (u have to have 2 mem cards for this) Step4: make a folder that looks like “PSP\game\PSP-DEV” Step5: place the EBOOT file from the output folder MS1 into the folder PSP-DEV on ur 1st mem card. Then do the same to mem card 2 only placing the EBOOT file from MS2 into the PSP-dev folder. Step6: switch back to mem card 1 then go to game on ur psp then to mem card. It will say the program, click on it then quickly put the 2nd mem card in before its gives u an error. when thats in it should work (IMPORTANT: the Snes9x emu does NOT work at the moment but the Genisis/master does. PS:im still figuring out how to put games on it)
I hope that helps

hey drew a friend of mine got his 1.0 on ebay a few days ago, it was brand new

Its really not that hard, choose an eboot homebrew file, say an emulator, run the program, it makes 2 files, but the 1st 1 on ur small mem stick the 2nd on ur large. But the 1st 1 in go to game go down to memory stick but dont run it, just leave it there, swap the memory sticks, then run it and it runs. Just like magic swap for ps2 but with mem sticks.

Damn, they could have atleast gave us the hint that we needed 2 memory sticks! SHIT!!!!

Everyone click on Idioma below the Tool in the title and select english

What is the password for the included tutorial?

You don’t need a password. Did you download it from this site?

Um yea I’d like to try this but I can’t even run the MSwapTool gives me a missing component error…? comdlg.32x

THe first video in the dark wasnt fake, you just couldnt see them swapping it.

How would the first video be fake. You only see the screen on the 1st video, again because they probably didn’t want to show the swap trick. The only way you could claim it ot be fake is if they showed them not swapping out the memory card after they begin the launcher execution. Since the swap happens off camera you can’t really make that claim.

Also from what I hear in Japan most PSPs are now shipping with 1.5 now. I suppose maybe if you hit Akiha you might find a used one running 1.0. Good luck finding one!

use acrobat to open the pdf file. i didnt have acrobat so the pdf file was opened with photoshop. when using photoshop to open the pdf, it asked for a password. didnt have a password so, installed acrobat and it never asked for a password when acrobat was used.

yeah this can fry your psp, we all know we shouldnt take the memory card off while its readin it
four days waiting for this

GO TO EBAY thats where i found on for 250 with S&H and that would be less than the price of buying a new one because there isn’t any tax.

hey satoru ebay has some psp 1.0 , they are not hard to find

Im interested on what dynarox was making and if their release differs from this.

ebay is my salvation! ill go get a 1.0 before they disappear

Dynarox aren’t making anything shemo.

Anyone??…I can’t even get MSwapTool to run…some missing component error “comdlg32.ocx”…

they’re not hard to find but you’ll pay a lot because now everyone who wanted a 1.0 and show how bad this method is is going to buy a 1.0. The price was cheepest right after they said they cracked 1.50 that when i bought my 1.0

And have they written anywhere that they cant be held responsible for if it buggers up? If they havent you could get them sued.

emil you are lucky, now psps are gonna sell for 600 :(

i mean, 1.o psps are gonna sell for 600

Sue them for what, you used it yourself.They didn’t force you to use the program

yeah right go sue them lol

hey Farmer, can u shut the fuck up with the rasism. The instructions arnt hard, some people are just too dumb to follow them.

Yeah i got outbided on 3 1.0 psps, they sold for 285, 280 and 220 and that was monday when everyone was waiting for the 1.50 to be cracked.

can someone plzz tell me how to do this!!?!?!?!

Just saying, im not because i havent tried it. But some crazy bastard will probably try.

i want a 1.0 :’(

Ha! Hacked my ASS! This exploit has most likely already been discovered, but not released because of all the trouble it causes. Spain has brought us pain, I concur to that! My bets are on Team Executor (The guys who originally modded the X-Box).

Anyway, big woof. Im just gonna use my psp for what it was intended for. Homebrew, a nice novelty. But id rather play somthing proper.

go get a 1.0 sell your 1.50 at gamestop they take them for 170 i how it’s a rip of. And get rid of any other console that you don’t play i sold my GC and all it’s games. they give you money back now, not just store credit.

If you want to use the SNES emu at the moment, you have to follow method 2 on the guide. They have said that there is a bug with method 1 and SNES at the moment

ANYONE KNOW WHAT THE HECK A “COMDLG32.OCX” COMPONENT ERROR IS…BECAUSE THIS IS F*CKING RETARDED…I CAN’T EVEN RUN THE MSWAPTOOL…I hate f*cking windows…

#82 maybe the first video is another exploit that they have working on. That dose not require you to swap MS.

ANYONE HELP!!! #135

I hate windows to Linux is much more relieble

The first video you could just not see the swapping?

Who cares about the video. They swapping thats all thta matters

PEOPLE PEOPLE PEOPLE….. ive already put forward probably on eof teh best solutiosn to this problem but no coders have jumped up an aknowledged….. the swap trick would be ok to use as a one time solution to run some kind of program to flash the 1.5 with the 1.0 firmwware.

we have the 1.0 firmware
we know the bios is flashable
we knwo that flashing abios is not a complicated proceudre

so all we need is a program to flash the bios to 1.0 then we can use teh swap trick to run this and never ahve to swap again….

Thx BRiLL, it worked.

Emil you get this to run right? Linux kicks micro$oft’s a**…by far…I think I need to go find another computer here to get this running…stupid component error wont even let me run the program…

Stop whining about the videos ya big babies…geeze…

confirmed to work with InfoNES using first method.
couldn’t get hello world, or SNES to work with the first method… have to go to work, so will try the second method later.

Hey, Is there ANY POSSIBLE way whatsoever to do it with 1 memory stick?

Dink wins…um lets move to a fourms page…

i guess we should look into is making a device that connects to the memstick port that holds both memsticks and has a button on it that switches the contact pins from ither dup card- making the swap much easier.

I WILL NOT SHUT UP TILL SOMEONE HELPS ME SOON!!!~~~~#135

Myself, I couldn’t care less, this is just what I’ve noticed:

I think most people are pissed because their hopes where so high based on the first video which was a complete lie! The video showed us an effortless sequence that could have been used on the go. I think PSP-DEV is a bunch of pussy ass bitches for releasing such a BS video that was obviously faked and nothing but a lie to their actual product.

Had they simply not LIED with that video then about 90% of the bitching on this thread wouldn’t be happening.

If PSP-DEV has any hatred coming their way they then they deserve it and they have no one to blame but themselves for their outrageous lie.

Personaly I’m not going to buy another memory stick. I’ll just try to find a 1.0. That should save the average person some money. I’ll wait for an ISO loader to buy a new mem stick.

For those that got the swaploit to work, that’s great news!!! We are one step closer to a lot more homebrew!!!

ok ill go back to sleep now. big disappointment. tomorrow is gonna be a big day, im gonna buy a 1.0 on ebay :D lol

Yeah, I assume Mswaptool doesn’t work if you own a Macintosh. Looks like I’ll just be patient and wait for a better crack hack then putting my $300 psp and memory stick at risk. *shrugs*

good idea, if i could do it i would, i know there exists a dump of the 1.00 firmware, so all we would need is some code that flashes the type of flash the psp has and thats it.

if i had paid attention at uni i would have a crack at it, but unfortunatly i went donwn the business strategist route, not teh programmer route

Thats not a half fucking bad idea! I saw a modification for psp where you use non duo sticks in a psp by connecting them to an adaptor ouside the psp. Ill Post on forums.

Well Dracula isnt so bad… I did manage to get it working after I gave up on the SNES emu.

and those capslock OCX guys! Im pretty certain those are runtime files, like visual basic probably. Just look up that filename on google, and you’ll find the runtimes.

I hope now that we can get a browser going, if not a loader that does not require swapping. there is no way we can program the loader to shell to another PBP file in the same directory? Is it a hardware exploit more than a software one, or what? seems like the code just needs to be perfected to me.

WHERES IS THE tutorial!

I’m going to sleep can’t stand you noobs. whats winrar, can i use 1 memstick, there’s a password, whats .pdf . You noobs shouldn’t even be doing this stuff. Just look around, google it, read other peoples posts before you starting to complain.

Shut the f*ck up EMIL, you little B*itch!

i agree with #163
all the way
look stuff up once in awhile

Thanks Doku but I didn’t find anything…move to the fourms people…

Heh I’ve got to admit if you dont know to open the pdf file included in the archive, you might not be so well off.

Well so long suckers! im going to go play sonic the hedgehog, with notable frameskip, and no sound, for probably 5 minutes, but LIKE CRAZY! I feel so bad for you because i can play this 12 year old game, very sowly.

WTF IS A MSWAMP TOOL?

omfg i cant believe that 95% of the comment are negative,that means there are many asshols up there.first oke its not the best way to play hombrew on psp with all that swaping shit,BUT you got at least a WAY to do it! and some 1 up there did use his own time to fu*king make this thing for free so just use it,or dont but stop flaming noobs.
and its still a begin time wil show.

Isaiah with a name like you sure are. Get of this comments. Go to a website that can help noobs like you go some where you’re wanted. All in favor of BOOTING this noob say I!

I agree with 172

Use method 2 to get snes working – worked like a treat – got Chrono Trigger working :P

I appreciate it. Yeh its not ideal but when i get my second ms ill give it a try

If u wanna boot me, go for it

I last thing. This method might damage the pins inside you psp. I know when i kept on removing the GBA games from my SP it broke the pins. Just warning you guy.

I cannot believe all the people complaining. This is a great advancement for us 1.50 PSP owners. This is practically a foundation that other developers can now build on and further improve. Maybe in the near future we’ll see a non-swap hack, who knows. For now, this is great! I can finally play 1942 on my PSP! Show some respect to the PSP-Dev team! Mad props to them!

Props to the Devs of this exploit! Works like a charm!

Go to the fourms…lock the comments…

Emil what are you talking about…

And yea props to the PSP-Dev team…

yesss i got the emulator to work but has ne one been able to play ne games yet

in the words of deltablaze from psp-spot.com

I wouldnt try the way for now. I’d wait to see what team x are doing and also, I have verified that the people who made the hack are making a firmware downgrade.

# 171

#171 – Um the tool to create the files you need to put on the two mem. sticks…so you can run homebrew…

I’m not the bitching type. In fact I do thank the psp-dev team very much for this breakthrough. However, if nobody complains then how will those guys know to keep trying? If nobody complains they’ll think, mission accomplished. Well, its NOT mission accomplished. You can’t select what homebrew app you want run while standing in an elevator. You can’t select what game you want to play, then quickly change your mind and play another game on your homebrew. That is all we want. The ability to load emu’s with all the roms we want on our psp’s MS and play them on the go. I know it’ll take more time, but we are getting closer and closer guys.

Yeah i think many people have tried playing the games – just played some Chrono Trigger, Sonic and downloading other games now. It may not be the best way to load homebrew but it works and thats a big step forward. Im not gonna do this continously – getting Coded arms soon enuff so emulation not gonna see the light of day for a while. Still it DOES work and thats brill.

If you dont want to use it – thats up to you and if you are using it thats your decision as well – im gonna use it and carry on doing so till theres a better hack/eploit available.

(Only thing ow is to wait for the next snes update where the emu runs at full speed :).

Outinthedark….how do u get it???!?!?

lol @ #188 If you use a Macintosh, you CAN’T use this swap trick!!

the psp-dev team is great and all, but there has to be a way for this to be simplified… 2 memory sticks? come on…. i have 2, but it’s a very annoying process… there has to be an easier way!!! i wanna play super mario bros. for NES on my PSP!!! but without all that hassle!!

what does this mean”Rename your ROMs to have a “.SMD” extension” please help

also i have 1.51…. there has to be an update for homebrew launchers as PSP firmware upgrades are released…

Matt i have no clue but help me find the mswamp tool thingy..plzz

that means instaed of lets say, “super mario.nes” make it “super mario.smd”

just go to download.com and type it in the search bar not much else i can tell ya

oh ok but its a sega game do i do the same thing?

to wtf…the dl is at the top of the page…everything is in the rar…

As for the rom guy…you shouldn’t have to worry about renaming the extentions…they worked fine on my 1.0…some of the older rom dl sites have the extention .nes or .rom…if they are just rename them to .smd but the only rom sites still up mostly have the .smd extention…

to #194 I don’t the file name is MSwamptool its MSwaptool

swap not swamp.

yea i was just using .nes as an example

#191
quitcherbitchin, buy a gameboy.
#192
rename the rom with an .smd extension. exactly what that says. if your rom is called XXX.rom, rename it to XXX.smd. simple as that.
#193
yes, eventually.

i personally am not going to try the swap trick, as it lead to the death of my ps1 and ps2…this is a big step though in psp homebrew. props to the dev team. time for some 1.0 hunting on ebay.

#199 ..opps my bad ..but i can’t get it ..Matt help

umm can some1 give me a link for nes roms plz

wtf your a noob.. seriously…please go home…if you can’t click on a link thats sad…the link is at the top of the page…there is two actually…that’ll down load all that you need…

hyperstepz your an ass…

why cant we just put both files onto the same ms

matt…http://www.rom-world.com/

because u need both to fool the psp i guess lol just go buy one they dont cost that much

oh and thx 203

matt…if copy and paste doesn’t work google rom world and click on the first link…and don’t do the voting thing…you’ll see what I mean…you don’t need to…

Listen my dudes, i figured out our problem. Everybody is copying the folders that were made directly into the psp. 2 folders were made ms1 and ms2, when you swap ms1 on the first mem stick it’s gonna look 4 ms1 on the other second mem stick. Just rename the ms2 folder to ms1 on your desktop and put it back on mem stick 2

hey i got the rom to show up on the emulator and clicked on it and it loaded up the screen but actually doesnt play did i do something wrong?

What game? Try more than one game too…

thats what im doing right now

GIVE UP ALREADY
no wait keep trying
never give up matt
keep learning
and surviving
then and only then will you become
more than a…
noob newb no0b however u spell it
by the way
this is not a dis or a flame
im just bored
tired
and dissappointed like so many other….
and thats all i have to say about that XD

omggggggggg im playing megaman six

gotta give my props to psp-dev thank u for making this possible playing nes games on a psp lol

im so proud of you matt
:) u put a smile on my face

lol cant wait till the snes one starts working

do you convert your roms the same way?

OMG!! You have all been moaning and whining about no 1.5 homebrew for ages and now we finally get it you wont stop whining. ffs get anothe small 32mb memory card, they dont cost that much – it isnt hard to do.
Read the insturctions and it will work for you.
If u dont want to waste this extra 10 seconds when starting to play homebew then go try and find a 1.0 PSP.

But for 10 seconds extra work and having to buy 1 more memory stick i think its great, and i thank the PSP-Dev team :D

I sincerly thank the PSP-DEV team as well, they could have imported 1.0s to get the homebrews working for themselves. But they worked a LONG time on makeing the brews work on 1.5s for everyone. I thank them.

For those that are getting data corrupted is becase you are putting the MS1 folder on the path for example, X:PSP\GAME\TEST\MS1\eboot

It should be X:PSP\GAME\TEST\eboot

I HAVE DONE EVERYTHING WHEN FOLLOWING THE INSTRUCTIONS! THE PSP JUST FREEZES (white screen) AFTER THE SWAP THEN TURNS OFF
LOAD OF WANK!!!
i tried snes i know that dosnt work i also tried genisis and beats of rage they just dont work and iam pissed off
i have v1.50
if anyone has done it can u please tell me the swapping method forget where the files have to be just the swapping method.

SOOOOOOOOOOOO MANY UNGREATFUL NOOBS as if swapping mem cards is hard. yesturday everyone was begging for homebrew and now it comes everyones like F**k it.

HERE ARE THE JACK*SSES OF TODAY

#8-#213

excluding #12 22 25 30 63 73 147 81 83 167:

I agree with both sides, not what I expect, but Tecmo Super Bowl just told me that you gotta do what you gotta do and that some people dont have the cash to get the 2nd memory card.

Make sure to not get the corrupted error file your arent putting the MS1 folder
in the GAME/TEST folder. I made the mistake, and i got nothing.

Sometimes im just not very smart.

ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOFL to all those fools that updated (twice for jap psp’s). 1.5 was enough, and now im waiting for my GBA emu to come along and then all is well. btw i already have a 512mb memstick and just bought a 32mb for £9.99. 2 mem sticks is nothing. IT WORKSSSS!!! once again ROOOOOOOOFLLLLLLLLL TO 1.51 AND 1.52 users wtf you gonna do now!!!!!!

Off the top of your head, top 10 NES excluding mario 1-3

go

the only one that works for me is the nes one

The best thing we can do now, is create a psp app that we can navigate our games directory ourselves, executing the games from within our own app. This would minimize the amount of times we would need to swap our 2 cards. I’m sure this is possible, perhaps that is why the spanish psp-dev team first released a shot of a “launcher”. I assume they have already begun attempting this.

hey can anyone tell me why my psp always freezes after i start the homebrew?

that sucks… I thought it would be a real loader thing, what the hells with this swapping crap, i have two memory sticks, but i’m not gonna risk losing one just to play some old games that i can just play on the real systems at home… hopefully something good will come out soon

can anyone tell me if they’ve gotten this to work on a Macintosh Computer? running OS 9?

got it working after several failed attempts. Change the folder on the second memorystick to say ms1. IT was metioned in post 207 and worked for me

well im not happy at all with this. Like someone already said “time for 1.0 hunting on ebay” lol

SinisterShadow, you’ve got the wrong version. (What? That’s not enough info?)

fucking idiots, christ in heaven
“this isn’t good enough for me!! i’m gonna whine and bitch instead of coding & doing something”

turn in your psp at your transfer station, you’ve lost your right.

am i the only one pissed here or what? weve been deceived! now ill need to buy a 1.0 for like 600$ :@ they were on ebay on 300 two days ago :(

Swapping does suck, but it’s very promising that they have anything working at all. It’s a starting point. Keep up the good work.

Will they release the source for this so others can improve upon it?

well its a startin point, i guess… but not what i was expectin

He did warn us by saying there will be some suprise. He was reffering to the swap trick.

U should be the only one pissed. This is more than likely not the final product, they will probably come out with a version that doesnt need 2 memory card in the near future. I think this is a great way to start and perfection isnt over night.

im pissed too, i want a 1.0

what do i open it wtih

what do i open it wtih? adobe says its a corupted file
help

i dont like this swapping trick, it is annoying and you can mess up your psp and your memory sticks

hehehe, remember when we used to blow into our 8-bit Nintendo carts??? Imagine all the spit that collected inside of em.

If your looking for emulators i should check out PSP Emulation News

i know it has been hacked, but the 1.5 hack is terrible

i wonder if the some psps are going to get damaged in a few days. taking out the memory while the psp is trying to access it is no good

I no the hack isnt all that practical but hey its a step in the right direction. Maybe someone will find out a way to do it with out thes need to switch the cars but for now its the only way.

On another note – the two folders can be named anything you like aslong as they match in each memory stick — MS1 (On memory stick one) — MS1 (On memory stick two) and the swap trick will work. The folders can have any identical name.

its a step further, but its not what i was looking for. i didnt like the fact that they made us wait for this. personally i want to play games like the 1.0 does

i just lost a 512 mb card i hate this swaploit

For people asking for the source – there won’t be any. Use method B and think/understand what is happening.

Obviously the signed code check is done on execution *only* for 1.50. Thats why you need to swap.

Snes is working fine with method B. Emulator is not perfect however.

And, for you moaning fucks : would you like some cheese with your whine?

jay do you actually like it? come on, have you used a 1.0? that IS a HACK

I just bought my PSP 1.0 on ebay for $305. Much better then buying a new memory stick. For those that upgraded and have 1.51 or 1.52 you can buy my 1.5 to use this swap trick for $250 plus shipping. isohaven@aol.com. Of course that price will be more justified when the 1.5’s run out :)

I haven’t tried it yet but I can’t wait! Would this little swap trick allow us to do a more permanent mod?

WHY!!!!! Do we need 2 god damn MS’s?!!!!!! >_

okay heres a n00b question for you, i got the emu working, now where do i get roms

this is great PUÑETA!!!! at last Super Mario on my PSP 1.5 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANKS PSP-DEV!!!!

#253 : Do I like it?

We all wanted homebrew on 1.50. We have it, whatever the method. It’s not perfect, agreed. But it works.

I think the cunts that are moaning should buy a 1.0 or just fuck off and die in a corner somewhere. Preferrably both.

Just because it’s not some “press X for your homebrew, ISO’s and a blowjob” answer to their vastly over-expecting dreams doesn’t make their inane hogwash any more worthwhile reading.

Dude, if you want to swap games on the go, get a NDS.
That being said, I think you are all f&$%ing retards. These guys spend days and weeks coming up with a hack for something people didn’t even think was possible, and all you bitches do is complain about not getting it to work because you didn’t FOLLOW THE F#$^ING DIRECTIONS.

These dudes know the hack isn’t perfect. But it’s a start. It’s like an RPG: in the beginning, all you can really do is run around, but at level 60, you can do all sorts of crazy shit.

Thanks to the hackers for taking time out of their busy lives to develop a working hack.

oh, and 1.0 is *NOT* a hack, it’s a firware.

Sony’s original firmware just allows unsigned code to be read from the MS.

If you fuckers would wait a few more days, a version that uses ONE MEMORY STICK OUT will probably come out soon. This is a big breakthrough. You act like these people “owe” you something. Fuck off if you “don’t like it.” I should report you motherfucking whining crybabies to the cops because EMULATORS AND ROMS ARE ILLEGAL UNLESS YOU OWN THE ORIGINAL SYSTEM, BITCHES!

Sorry, flaming because pcconnection.com won’t send my my motherfucking 1GB Memory Stick Pro Duo. Assholes.

hahahaha hey bilstorm what a retarded loser you are. know what? this hack sucks. if they guys just release it, well, its ok, i dont like it and thats it. but if they make me wait a week with a stupid release date and all kind of bs (like surpirses inluded) for THIS? come on, this sucks! i support the guy who wants a 1.0, I WANT A 1.0 ALSO. Ebay hunting time

and to jimmy jay couple of dipshits, i know how to do the stupid swap trick. the problem is that IT BLOWS. it also fks up your psp and your memories

First, I don’t own a PSP, I just saw this on Slashdot.

It’s an interesting hack. It’s a bit clumsy, but a clever way of going about things. It was a bit evil to show misleading videos that didn’t show the swapping.

What is absurd is the number of idiots replying and asking “what does ‘renaming a file’ mean?” or “where do i find the mSWAMPtool?”. If you can’t even spell “swap” or rename a file, you have bigger problems. Use Google, read other comments, use common sense, just don’t ask dumb questions. And if you’re insulting others’ questions, as I am, try not to fling racial or religious insults; it just makes your argument look worse.

They did good , they give u a solution for free and all anyone can do is bitch ,what have u lot done for the scene apart from flooding it with lameness.

1GB for how much #262?

i got my 1gb memory stick for 115.40 including shipping off ebay

hey…u noe what…ijus got it 2 work wit one more try…strange….

#265 :

It fucks up my memories? Shit. There goes that expensive beach wedding in Oahu. Somebody call my wife quick!

for the few people that like this crappy swap trick, dont you think that it wasnt honest to lead us to think that the “exploit” would have been something better than this? dont tell me you didnt think it was

#265: sorry mistook you for a fucktard. I meant #264

what is this? a fight between “I like this hack” ppl vs “I dont like the hack” ppl? you both need to be honest, this was a huge step forward but the hack was not what was expected. It is dangerous for the psp and the memory sticks

i agree with #266…they’ve given us a free solution to play homebrew…and all people are doing is bitching about the swap. it’s not that much work u lazy bastards! i commend them for their excellent work and i’m loving having the entire nes collection to play on my psp.

if i needed to vote, id give it a 3 out of 10. i mean, you can do some stuff, but it is too clumsy and like the other guy said, dangerous for your psp

any one who is bitchin that it dosent work is just plan stupid read the instructions right stupid ass it works just fine sorry for you all thats bitchin i been up for 30ty hours go to bed cry baby cause it works and it dont take to many brain cells to figure it out but any way thanx psp-dev i been lookin forward to this i now have a kick ass toy it was cool before but it really kicks ass now thanks again psp-dev !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

QUE CHORRO DE MARICAS ITS NOT DANGEROUS…. THE ONES THAT ARE BITCHIN ARE MARICAS!!!!!! FUCKING HIJOS DE PUTA.. THE FUCKING HACK WORKS JUST FINE GIVE IT SOME TIME AND YOU WOULD SEE THAT IT WOULD GET BETTER.. BUT STILL…. FUCKING MARICONES DE MIERDA!!!!!!

how do you guys no its bad for the psp do you guys work for sony no i didnt think so we wiil not know for a few days so quit cryin and give it a chance and a big hahahahaha to those who are to dumb to read instructions right!

yeah this sucks, cant believe so many retards post that we dont like it cos we cant make it run. come on, personally, i dont like it cos i wont compromise my psps functioning and i wont toss memory sticks like some ppl are already doing cos the fast swapping damames the pins

yeah it has been warned that taking the memory stick out while psp reads is harming to the psp, we all know that

How does it damage the pins? and a Mac file would be nice too.

it not only damages the pins but the psp, cos you take the memory out while it is still accesin it

i lost a 512 mb earlier, im trying to fix it

Could the moderators please info us that this hack DOES NOT WORK FOR MAC OS!!!

Only PC

So exactly how soon are you supposed to swap the sticks? ie- before/after the psp logo fully appears, etc

THANK YOU SOOO MUCH
using this and Rin’s gbc emu i was able to play pokemon; no more risky carrying 2 pocket consoles for me ^^
and if use something like Rin’s you can change emu games without having to swap cards
Looks great ^^ and with the right settings looks even better than on original

I’m not even frustrated with the swapping of memory sticks.

I have two memory sticks.
I have a 1.5 psp
I have a usb connector
I have internet access
I knowledge of how to do the trick and load roms and all that.

My problem is, I don’t have a PC to run the MSwap tool on. :(

Only dumb fucks will use this technique, it isn’t a hack.
Its stupid.
Why are you dumb fucks. Because you’re willing to ruin your PSP to play a Gameboy game?? How stupid is that.
Bunch of idiots. Also to the spanish dude swearing, your exploit sucks.

IT FUCKING WORKS!

THANK YOU.

Come on guys… you’ve gotten this free hack that is sorta dangerous but it’s proof of concept. You then try and do it – it doesn’t work out sometimes or costs you a stick – then you whine on the forum.

Uh, hello?

You’re just blindly doing something someone told you on the Internet – are you a retard?

If you want to play around with it, throw it in and try it out – if you are:

* Scared of loss.
* Unable to afford another PSP.
* Unable to follow directions.
* Worried about your sticks.

Don’t do the hack then. Go ahead, you can do it – press Alt-F4 or Command-Q. Honestly, you probably couldn’t even do a mod chip hack, so FO.

And come on guys, the “scene”? I’m betting most of you gusy can’t even program, let alone develop the electronics required in some cases. You’re just a bunch of guys looking for the easy way to do something. If you’re not smart enough to figure out a way to hack the PSP youself, shut the hell up and go home.

This was good for a first attempt. Too hyped but an honorable one. This shit take time and for the ppl who want it ultra esay with a nice menu and all you are really fucktards…

Props to the Spanish team. This will lead to another set of hacks and before the years end this thing will be running everything you want

Most people are angray because it was hyped up way too much. The videos, while real, were deceptive, but again, this isn’t a hack, it’s just a temp way to get it working, but it isn’t a reasonable way of doing it. I don’t think this group did anything special really.

i like this;
its not only gameboy games dude; once someone programs a a decent app loader for this it will be Cake;
all you’ll have to do is load that app loader and never have to swap unless you turn off your psp; you can even avoid that by puting it in standbye;
i wonder if its possible to load umd games from such a loader?

AJ, you’re a stupid bastard

why wally and the rest; i love you too…will you marry; cause obviously your my type of girls =P
im getting a computer informtions degree and i know how hard stuff like this to do; so even if you dont like the concept least you can do is sit back and applaud thier hard work and effort intead of sitting on a comment page whining

All you bitch far to much. I’m glad for this its a step for getting us the Games we so want to play… Even though I can play all these games on my PC… I dont know about you guys but I got my psp to listen to music, play the new games coming out for it, and most of all having fun with my friends with the wireless play? Come on hacks are great and hell I love them, but take time to think about about the people that made this and also your own damn life. Stop living your life by “OMG I HAVE TO HAVE A EMULATOR ON PSP OR I WILL DIE” Take a sometime to spend time with Family, and Friends…even if you gaming with them thats also great. Good job to you guys that are not pissed about swaping, and those of you who are take time to read this and thing about your lifes. I wish the best in you all. =)

So does this mean you have to have 2 memory sticks for this to work? That is so retarted!!!

I see people saying SNES emu doesn’t work, but it does.

Anyway, I’ll only being using this to try out homebrew and play some old SNES games when I am bored.

It is a hack and it works great. It lets you play unsign code you dumb ass.

I will be releasing the emulator used in Pre-Gold phase
this Friday at 1:00 pm EST.

It’s a start. Now there’s the possibility of patching the firmware since we can now run OUR code. It sucks for now but it’ll get better.

Wally you have problems… your the people i’m talking about that need to find their meaning in life get a life… and get some friends or something make the world happy by fucking learning. And oh yeah whatever you think is funny about making fun of races your… really … a smart guy that will go somewhere in life… ::cough,cough::

thank you for removing his posts

hahahaha .. so many people expecting this to be easy. it’s as if the entire world was raised on trikes or bikes with training wheels and they got taken away.

the thing is, if you know how to do a PSX swap trick (and understand how it works); if you know what ROM hacking/translating is; if you can build a computer and fix any hardware/software issues due to mediocre drivers or hardware, you should find this “hack” to work.

it’s not for stupid noobs who want to simply hit a button and expect it to work. if that’s you, you should take up something easier, like knitting.

I can’t believe how gay this section is. At first the post under 60 were OK. But now all of you stupid noobs are posting. You guys don’t know anything. You’re Stupid And this is about comments about the swap exploit not where can i buys this and how do i open that. Go ahead flame me all you what i’m not posting in this section again. People go ahead and read all the post and you’ll see what i’m talking about.

maaan !! it’s Easy to right it (( Swap the memory )) but it’s really kill us.

is there any way to do it with singl memory card ?? >__

this swap crap sucks, and if i want to play final fantasy ONE while away, i will so i ll buy a v 1.0 on ebay even if it costs 500+ i have the money so its no problem for me. dont criticize me if you dont know me

emil is right, when this was first posted it was him, me, admins, and a few others who knew what they were talking about. Now its just little kids who got their psp as a gift telling you to live withour homebrew. To tell you the truth when I bought my psp i only got 2 games. The only reason I bought it was for homebrew really.

DOES NOT APPEAR TO WORK WITH WINDOWS 2K.

working fine with XP.

Shawn: Why in the hell would they SKIP over 1.5 and do 1.51 which may be impossible to do without a real 1.5 hack/exploit. Think before you type

I am saying that because since they came out with one for 1.5 maybe its time to start working on something for 1.51 it cant be all that differnt.

No one liked my post? :(

We all thought it was funny here! :)

Oh well. Now to contribute. I’m very disappointed in this scene. Just because someone needs help running the swaploit they get flamed? That’s horrible.

I see a lot of comments where people think the swaploit is hated because it doesn’t work. I didn’t read any posts like that at all. What I do read is where PSP-DEV has failed to supply the product they promised. This swaploit doesn’t work as promised by thier video. That’s what people hate!

I don’t care either way. I already bought 1.0 on Ebay this morning for $305!!!! Sweet!

Oh and for all the people that rip on others for spelling mistakes….

Go fukc yurselfes you danm moreons. Get a friggen life!

I think there is a way to make this expliot to use only one memory stick. It only needs time to see whats going on when the psp executes the code. For example, if we could make another directory on the same MS and call it X:psp\games\MS2. Iam not a programmer but I belive there is a way to make this to work. Or no.

Ok i read up a bit and #75 you are a f***ing moron. They called this a loader, not a swaploit and they tricked us with fake vids. They flat out lied to us about the videos and the “loader”. As for me staying up i was WORKING you dumb 13 year old. I decided to stay up an extra few hours to see what this was. Swap exploits are annoying, the psone crap sucked. Think if everytime you wanted to use your xbox for homebrew you had to pull off the case, open the dvd drive and put a cd in at the exact same time. I dont think people would go for that. As for me not being able to do “what they can do” swap exploit are no fucking big deal. Although you are probably right, i dont know anything thats why i have xbox apps up on xbins , added memory to my xbox to make it 128mb, and installed the modchip myself (not solderless you n00b). I really wish I could develop a swap hack like these guys

wtf???? i have no idea how to use this shit!!! everytime i try to use it i het an error report,how the hell do i use this?

Then we can swap it as if we have two memory cards.

goodnews: that is funny, i am not going to flame though. theres no possible way to do that, plain and simple.

WTF my post got cut off… as i was going to say: the swap trick involves the psp reading the data from stick #1 and executing it then swapping in #2 to trick the psp. no possible way to do that with 1 memstick. what you are saying is to make 2 directories: PSP/GAMES/MEM1 and PSP/GAMES/MEM2. So you execute a program from the mem1 and the psp boots it, Then what? You would need to swap for another memory stick.

Hey, has anyone tried both “Nes Emulator” and “Nester”?
Which is better?
I’ve only used Nester so far, and it seems to work fine except I’m having problems with autosave/autoload

where do you get the ROMS for the emulators

i would use this more but I am:

A) afraid of the psp malfunction while running the emu. there are cases of it shutting down and becoming a paperweight

B) Frying the PSP when swtiching the sticks. But for some reason I doubt this one could happen easily, though I’m not taking any risks.

But I have the insurance and I won’t use my 1GB for roms so, I guess I’m good.

we were deceived like morons, this swap crap is not what they promised. i hope i can find a 1.0 on ebay before they disappear. f*ck my 1.5

i dont like the way the psp freezes when i dont switch the memory stick fast enough, and removing the memory stick while it reads isnt good for the memory stick drive

Also, I hear SNES emulator works if you use method 2, but it sounds like a lot of work. Would someone that has used method 2 please upload the resulting files somewhere?

I have just skipped through this post and am totally ashamed by the lack of suppeort for the people who gave us this trick and the trick itself. Everyone who has been bitchin are obviously to dumb to try and figure out a mod or hack for themselfs. You guys are DICKS. This is great news and the only people over hyping it were yourselfs expecting a full all singing all dancing program that any idiot can work, if it was that easy would we have had to wait this long for the hack ?

Shit you dumbass whining bitchs annoy me so if you dont like the trick dont slate it make a better one and show us !!

THANKS TO THE LADS WHO CAME UP WITH THIS.

#318 No what Iam saying is to make two make 2 directories: PSP/GAMES/Ms1 and PSP/GAMES/Ms2 on the same memory stick then you execute the Ms1. Then take out the memory stick and insert it again so it can read the Ms2.

ok… i got to a screen that has memstick.ind,mstk_pro.ind,psp,mp_root…. i have no idea what to do from here!! i didnt know where to put the rom so i put it in the same dir as the eboot. help!!

This is not realy a hack, it just tricks the psp into thinking that the program has been authorised.

Im not saying that there hard work was for nothing, it is a step in the right direction, but they did mislead us though

great, i can swap sticks but WHERE THE HELL DO I PUT THE ROMS??????????

well i found out where the rom went but when i try to acess it the fucking psp turns off!!!!

did the people from ps2nfo authenicate this last week, they at least could have told us it was a swap disk.

bet the were laughting at us as we weighted for it

so…who the fuck knows what to do to help… i cant get the fucking game to load… am i putting it in the wrong place? is the whole thing bullshit? i get a pretty fucking stupid menu but no fucking game!!!! come on man..help!!!

daredevil,

Quit being suck a cock! The only people that hyped up the Loader was PSP-DEV with thier fake video. Then they released something completly different. Of course people are pissed. PSP-DEV got thier hopes up then never delivered. Instead they delivered some swaploit.

People are still waiting for what PSP-DEV showed in thier video.

Sure, for those that don’t like it they can either not use it or buy a 1.0. Like I said before I bought my 1.0 earlier today because I hated the released solution. That and I’m a spolied fuck!

I don’t support PSP-DEV at all. They are liars! Tricky bitches :)

All they had to do WAS NOT LIE!!!! That’s it!

al…go to C:/Windows/ and delete System and System32 folders and then reboot. Hope that helps bro.

Howcome the TurboGrafx and Genesis Emus work but the SNES doesnt?

i am not trying to offend anyone but hillbilly farmer, no one seems to want to help, only complain..

Learn something new every day:

Spic comes from Spiggoty:

The native people have been nicknamed “spiggoty” by the Americans from their expression “speeka-da-Engleesh,” which finally was contracted into “spiggoty.”

Jeez you fuckers are so annoying, show some appreciation will ya and stop being some greedy little bitches for once. Waaa…this doesn’t work that doesn’t work..it’s a swap i don’t like it, STFU!!

ya can someone answer pauls question???

Iam tired of hearing people saying that this is not a hack and that is sucks.So I will try to make something out of this exploit. Something that will let you run homebrew without the swap of the MS. And I bet the Killer- X and their team are also trying to make something else or they have something already like a bootloader.

number 335# answer him!! i got everthing set but snes work work anyone know why?

i am not complaining, the instructions just dont tell you enough, the dont say one word on roms..i woul be happy to swap…takes 2 seconds, if only i could figure out how the hell to get the game to work.

how about someone explain how to get the SNES to work instead of being a complete ass about it.

how about less stupid remarks and a little more help.. isnt that what this is for? the more people that know how to use this stuff, the better?

i got to say…
it finds the job which 32MB card in value package could do…

If someone asks nicely instead of being an ass bitch about it, i’ll explain it.

pretty please ..with psps on top..help me, i am computer retarded, i got the menu screen[327] but what am i doing wrong?

Paul,
How about you friggen read the previous posts before you post yourself. That question has already been answered at least TWICE!!!!

Al,
Why would the swaploit tut. give you instructions on other peoples software!?!?!? Your problem is with the makers of the emulator you are trying to use. Go ask them about the roms. Obvisouly no one here even knows what emulator you are using or they just DONT KNOW the answer to your question! If you want to remain here then you will just have to WAIT for an answer.

CHILL OUT!

You’re right,there’s only 349 posts. I should get to reading.

I’ve read them all. So yup! That’s the spirit!!!!

Of course I’ve been reading them since this thread was created.

OR!!!! Now here’s a long shot. Maybe you can SEARCH the page. CRTL + F…jerky.

ok….. i got the emulator from this place..and the roms i just ripped from an old dreamcast emulator disc..i thought the emulator was the same one everyone else was using.

As for those who say they didn’t do what they said, how is that. I can run homebrew on my 1.5 which 24 hours ago I could not. It may not be the optimal way of getting it to run, but it works. Of all the people in the world working on it, they are the only ones to get it to work. Alot of you people are dont appreciate their work, maybe you should use your psp for what Sony wants you to. Maybe a modchip will come out, so then we can here a million complaints about that. Maybe some of you complainers can get an SDK and go to town. For those who are flaming the group, I hope every pixel goes bad, while your psp starts to smoke after you cat,dog,wife or mom pee’s on it.

Maybe im just blind…Where can I find this “method 2″

don’t worry,

Can you load apps EXACTLY how PSP-DEV shows in thier video?

NO!

That’s what people are pissed about. Maybe you’ve SKIPPED over the word VIDEO about 200 hundred times reading all these posts? I know it’s a tricky word but come on!

Paul,

It’s in the tutorial. Read the WHOLE tutorial.

Wowzers. Quite the # of comments. I’m floating in the same boat as “don’t worry” – 24 hrs ago I could not run homebrew, now I can. And really, to me, it’s not even that big of deal to swap memory sticks. Just think about all the cool homebrew that’ll be released now/soon! So they tricked us with the video, big deal – they got homebrew running on 1.50 before anyone else. And one more plus, I can play Punchout and Marble Madness now! On another note, please halt with the racial slurs – that’s ridiculous.

Administrator,

So you have no ill regard towards PSP-DEV for deceiving you with a lie of a video?

or are people just so happy that they can run homebrew that they don’t care about the deception?

I think it’s fun to see what people think, bad or good.

ISOHaven,

I’ll admit when I first read it used a swap technique, I was a bit peeved. However, after trying it and realizing it’s fairly straight forward and simple to use, I was quite content in the end. I feel PSP-Dev did a good job discovering this hole, regardless if I was mislead by their video.

ok, enough with all the complaints, i am too lazy to read thru 350+ comments so i need help. when i insert the second mem stick, the emulator comes up (SNES) but when it turns white and says psp, it then turns black and says it cannot run, plz help!!

Flea,

Open the included tutorial in the rar archive – it’s in PDF form. Scroll down to Method B – you can get the SNES emulator working with this method. It’s rather time consuming though. Or you can wait a bit and I bet something will be released to simplify the process.

i cant get the pbp files from the ms1 folder or ms2 to show up on the psp to execute them,just say “there are no games”.How do i get it to read them?????????Any help please???

hey, someone is trying to sell a program on ebay to run all homebrew emulators, including snes, he is charging 5 bucks and says he will give you a great site to get them from!!

on the 1.5 i mean.

harry22 – #361,

Create a sub-directory under the \PSP\GAME directory.

i.e.) X:\PSP\GAME\PSP-CHESS

and place the EBOOT.PBP in there.

see now i just tried that and still it wont read anything,I open up the psp folder then the game folder then a new one named whatever and I place the pbp file in there but when i try to accesse them it still says there are no games

is pbp file format something the psp understands????

…Why are the tutorials password protected?

Yes, .pbp files are like .exe or .com files on a PC

why do the snes roms run so slow

hey guys.. maybe you can help me.. i’m doing everything as it says.. and i finally got it to come up.. but now i dont know how to get a rom to work.. on an SNES emulator.. yep.. noob at this kinda stuff.. please help.. i wanna play illusion of gaia.. haha

This works great, you have a pretty big window for loading stuff too. and to answer the emu questions, since most of these emu’s are still beta-ish, there are going to be some slow downs. The NGPC emu runs quite slow, like.. 20-30fps with backgrounds turned off, homebrews work great, as does the gameboy emu. Don’t expect to play Marvel vs. Capcom yet, but maybe someday.

Congratulations PSP-Dev, you guys are going down in history.

Not really Plug!

Hey does #378 actually work?

anyway possible this will run on a mac?

actually video 1 didn’t show any fingers at all. I am sure after all the complaints, they made video #2 which didn’t show loading, just exiting. Maybe some of you had to high of expectations. I figured, as long as I could figure it out, I am cool with it. If they come out with a mod chip, people will complain. Anything short of just loading and playing anything straight up, will not be good enough. Remember it is free, you get what you pay for.

dang I don’t have 2 memory sticks :( oh well maybe I can save for awhile and buy another one.

i bought my 1.0 on ebay :D

Id wait to buy, they might come out with a one stick ver. soon.

I’m sorry if I sound stupid, but where do we get the eboot.pbp and emulators. If this can’t be posted I’d be very appreciative if you could send it to me in an email to: lylerawdon@gmail.com Thank you

Well, I’m an idiot, I see how to make the eboot.pbp, but are the emulators just inside of that, or do you download them separately?

I think that the swap trick is little hastle to deal with. But its still worth it. Its better than nothing. For some reason snex will not work for me. I guys it still has some bugs. I think that the people crying like babys should just shut the f*** up. I think that the dev teams are doing good and trying there best so STOP YOUR BITCHING!!!!

has anyone had any ireparable damage dome to their psp as a result of this.

mine is working fine emulator and all.

dont update unless its needed to play a game and give these guys their pros for being the first to cross the finish line with asuccessful product for free!!! lets stop being racist and enjoy our homebrews before i call the black panthers or jessie jackson.

This is useless. We need to find a more practical way of doing this shit…swapping? not only could it damage psps, but it means we have to buy another MS just to run some homebrew. :-(

could this damage ur psp, i would have thought it would only dammage ur memory card, if so u should just be able to reformat it and start again.

SNES emulator works on the psp, without having to do method B. I can post the files and folders if you need them to copy to your psp.

To make run smoothly, push the analog stick up to make the framerate drop to like 4. and turn off the sound. Should run smoothly..

donkey kong 3 runs the smooothest!

if there was a possible way to make a partision in a memory stick, would there have to be swapping involved still?

very pissed off, every time i click generate, some stupid message comes up that doesn’t really help me at all, i wish it was easier for n00bs to do?

USE AT UR OWN RISK U CAN DAMAGE UR MS SOME PEOPLE MS BECAME CORUPTED BUT U MIGHT REPAIR IT BY USING COMPUTER

I am sure that a small bit of hardware that u put 2 memory sticks in will come out soon that will automate the whole swap process… I am going to wait til then.

Once again, the best way to get SNES games to work is to get 0.02y11, not .02y10 or .03a. For some reason, y11 isn’t on this site, so get it from psphacker or something. You hit left on the analog nub, and set the PSP clock speed to 333mhz. No need to turn off the sound. If it’s still a little slow, bump up a frameskip a little.

Oh, and the games this fall are going to have mandatory firmware upgrades on them. So if you want to play Burnout, GTA, etc, you’re going to have to give up the homebrew. Between that fact and the possibility of a no-swap method before then, why would you want to waste money on some hardware that holds 2 sticks?

Why play those stupid games that we can play on the xbox or ps2. Also, for those fucking people that are bitching about the swap trick then fuck you. The truth is that this is the only way we were going to play homebrew on the psp v1.5. This is no other way of doing this. This expliot will help us make a better way of playing homebrew but if it wasnt for Killer-X and this team. We would still be crying about why cant we play homebrew games like the psp 1.0. Know if you dont like this expliot then wait until they make a modchip so you can fuck your psp. If you can even make this swap trick then you can install a modchip that might require you to solder something on to the psp.

happy swaping ppl

thax to psp-dev and Killer-X for this expliote

What does it Mean When I try Downloading A Mp4 Or Jpeg a Dialog Box puts Up Tell Me, Specify the correct path and file Name. But Some jpegs And Mp4 Download. Please Someone HELP ME!

dudes.. Did the swap trick. Now my psp wont even boot it stays on the ‘ sony computer entertainment’ screen.

Suks to be me !!

I not trying the swap trick just for that reason. I love my psp and can’t afford to splash out on a new one if i mess it up.

Besides if I had wanted to play those kinds of games I would have bought a GBA and one of those flash carts u can put GB and GBA roms on.

Ok… I did the exploit… and I got to play homebrew tetris on my PSP, but now if I can’t get out of tetris… what do I do?

press start any yes

#394 the swap trick is 100% safe. If you know what your doing it will not fry your psp.

I did the trick and my psp is now a Ds!!! OMFG!

Well some one tell me how to put the psp-dev launcher on my psp?

and something else,the MS1 folder has Eboot.pbp file but MS2 is empty….

Y’know what’s funny, people are dumb enough to think swapping is the only way. Funny how datel is able to prove people wrong by including a genesis emulator in their cheat device. Simple reason: tech geeks like to feel superior, but sometimes are too stupid to write code.

yo how do i wok it its in french or w/e that lang is if some 1 can read it plezz email me at mr_vincy_boi@hotmail.com ight
