WHAT?! Tenchu is working? Omg, and I just recently bought the game. xP Oh well, I guess it’s nice to own a few games on the side. :P

 
Comment by Mohzer
2005-08-27 05:56:01

Oh, by the way…are the long loading times significantly shorter with this program? Since the actual game takes ages to load stuff, I might consider getting the Iso instead.

Yeah, the PSP can read off the memory card quicker than it can read off a UMD.

 
Comment by Vincent
2005-08-27 07:12:35

Not 2 bad. I luv the NO UMD disk thing. But it doesn’t play some of my true favorites like, NBA Street Showdown,Need For Speed Underground rivals,Medieval,Spiderman 2,Fifa Soccer & Death Jr. Other than PSP Device Hook Launcher v0.10 is a winner.

I know some of you might call me a newbie or whatever, but I am, so I’m not sure what I’m doing. I guess you download the loader, but how do you get the games, and how much memory do they take up?

hot shot golf not works on 1.0 for me

 
Comment by Vincent
2005-08-27 08:04:22

#11 The games u get from file share programs or websites that’s all i have 2 say on that matter.As far as memory, it depends on the size of ur MS Pro Duo. Also the size of each iso game file(s) is different. I hope this will help u out.

Hell Ya! THU2R works on it 2.

You lot make me laugh, we are supposed to be a team on this psp, if we share our ideas etc then in time the firmware v2 will be cracked.. Maybe not yet but i bet its being worked on right NOW, so for all the people slagging off the upgrade I bet once its been cracked YOU will all be using it. (MARK MY WORDS!!!)

Of course we will if it’s cracked.

1.0 support is great, much much better than fastloader.

Gave a fast try to several and worked with Memory Stick save support and all:

ATV Offroad
Twisted Metal

Not working correctly:

Wipeout Pure, hangs on the loading screen, maybe the rip is bad :(

Not working at all as expected

Need for Speed

Special mention for the no UMD feature and the sleep possibility (if I recall well Fastloader doesn’t allow sleep, it worked with TM)

So thanks a lot, awesome first release, waiting impatiently for next one :)

Comment by Detroitbootybass
2005-08-27 13:40:24

I gave this a test run… but I prefer FastLoader (which runs more games than Hook Launcher).

Good work, nontheless…

BTW - I can use the ’sleep’ function with Fastloader, some people can’t?

Yeaaaa, my name is kevin and i wanna know if all the homebrews and hacks iso stuff will work on my 2.00 psp, i upgraded to play homebrewsssss pleeeasse help me, im lost guys.

ROFL

 
Comment by Kamishiro
2005-08-27 14:21:16

Kevin, your out of luck, to play homebrews you have to have version 1.00 or 1.50 since you updated you cant play any homebrews >_

 
Comment by someone
2005-08-27 14:41:00

really great :-D a step forward :-D
but i’ve got FW 2.00 so its not possible to use this :-S :-(
but is it possible to create your own UMD
i mean…UMD is just a modified MD,right?
so ive you got rewritable of recordable MD and you open it and place it in the white thing from a UMD game, could the PSP read the copied (U)MD? or do you need a homebrew?

 
Comment by AceMilo
2005-08-27 14:51:55

Great work, wish it had greater compatablility (ie Death jr that humma kumma already has working and is just ironing out bugs).

@36 - No, a umd is a modified dual layer dvd-9.

 
Comment by someone
2005-08-27 14:55:53

really,37?
has someone already try that?
i dont know how to do that :-P
but a MD has 2 GB space..i thought
and an UMD is 1.8..so i thought it was a modified MD…pitty

 
Comment by EMH
2005-08-27 15:23:14

To 35, I was actually faking :D

We always see dumb people asking if they can’t do homebrew with v.2. Maybe they’re actually faking too lol..

 
Comment by cammy1011
2005-08-27 15:35:10

Boy that would be so much easier if we could just back up a umd to a blank umd,save from having to buy a $200 ms that only holds a couple games.Are the mini dvd’s bigger in size than the disc inside the umd.That would be sweet if they made a empty umd case.burn your iso to a mini dvd,and put it in the case,even if you had to buy a modchip,id rather do that.

mmmhmm…if you got an ISO from the internet..isnt it big for your MM stick? an UMD is 1.8 GB big, but sometimes i read they’re 250 MB per ISO…are they Ripped?
or are they full?
if its full, then its kinda waste of space….

Games are free,at least for me most of them are,except for the rental fee at the local videostore.If they werent so damn expensive maybe I would buy some originals.You buy a new game $50 3 months later its on sale for $20.Dont get me started.

Running zip and rar is a great idea but judging from the experience I have with NeoGeoCD emu which loading a zip is 10x slower than the unzipped.. I really doubt if we can make it run as fast as the zipped.

Why would a loader that runs a zip or rar fix all our problems?

 
Comment by Tyler
2005-08-28 00:03:05

Cuz condessed files are like 3/4 less big as the actual iso files so what if it takes 10x more i could fit like….. 4 games if they all under 200mb on a 1 gig that would be awesome!

 
Comment by Vincent
2005-08-28 01:06:29

#62 & 63 Hell Ya! That would be a problem solver & it would be truly awesome. Maybe the creator(s)of PSP Device Hook Launcher, could look in2 that feature. Just imagine condense iso zip or rar files. Probably as many as a dozen on a 1gb MS Pro Duo. And even more on a 2gb MS Pro Duo. It brings a smile 2 my face.
