    “automatically re-calculate LBA positions to UMD standard positions and remove excess padding.” Does this mean we can play gta with this?

    Point 1. If you have to ask what this is… leave it alone.

    Point 2. If you need to ask what an iso is… well go back to the store and tell them your returning it for an ID 10 T error. (be sure to write it down for them)

    Point 3. If ANY software will allow you to jack cars with your PSP (aka run GTA) it will be Headline News. for days nothing but that will be on the front page of several sites.

    Point 3. If any software allows you to Downgrade from 2.5 or higher see Point 2 for coverage details.

    Point 4. Why do I bother? your still going to ask the BS questions anyway. I thought getting a PSP would atleast keep the nintendogs community out of my face, yet they still are here.

    It’s so anyoing with people asking about if it is a downgrader!! Just shut up! If it is, it will say: “Downgrader” not “UMDGEN” Stop asking those damn stupid questions!!

    But, this is a great realese! I really enjoyed V1.0 too! =)

    nOOBS? WTF defines a noob here. The fricken PSP is not even been around long enough for anyone here to be considered a non-n00b. If your all so great, then get do something useful and contribute to the scene instead of bashing what you are.

    lol! i wonder why ppl always think that when a program come out and have a 2.0 on it, they will think it’s a iso loader.

    I don’t know how accurate the firmware version detector is. Tells me I need fw 2.0 and higher for WRC World Rally or PoP, but the games run fine on fw1.5

    well when you say noobs i would consider them the people that always ask the same question time and time again on *every* bit of news that gets posted, a non noob wouldnt have to be a coder or anything just someone who understands what the hell to do with the softwear that gets relesed.

    and wtf psp has beeen out for ages.

    umd gen coders! you did a great job!

    why do you don’t work with lande on a umd ripper/gen version ??? this would be the ultimate tool for all who know a little bit of psp ripping and gen :-)
    this is a great idea, isn’t it???

    PSP 2.01 firmware unlocked
    Once again, some PSP owners can install and run their own software on PSP handheld game devices, thanks to hackers who’ve defeated Sony’s 2.01 firmware, which contained anti-customer measures that shut out homebrew games.

    Guys FFS!!

    Its my first post to this site, so be patient plz :), so i agree that i’m a total noob in hacking, so may i ask what this software is realy for? BTW: In my opinion, anyone who managed to run hacked games on their PsP system arent noobs, most ppl dont even know what a PsP is… so instead of whining, you could help us out with answers :). (ok agree those who just write “whats an iso” shouldnt start on this website)

    Ok, so does this play gta? Or is it some sort of downgrader that makes your psp a 1.5? Or is it mainly for people with 2.5?

    I have to agree with a previous thread in reagards to stop being a bunch of punks and try and help resolve the so called “noobs” by answering the questions without ridicule if you know the answers. I have been with the hack scene for psp since the beggining and still run into issues where I’m not exactly sure what the new software is doing. Also if it wasn’t for a few really nice people when i first got started I would still be at a total loss most likely. Not everyone is extreamly capable on PC’s or with electronics so try and help em out if you know a bit(or alot) more than they do instead of trying to create this feeling of excluding anyone who doesn;t know as much as you, remember there was once a point when you also didn’t know anything and it took someone else (whether info was from a site or individual person) to help you out and get you started. All I’m saying is the only way to ever get people to know what things are is by helping them, being patient, and explaining what things do/don’t do and remember that even if you have told someone once before what something is/isn’t/does/doesn’t do that you may have to repeat it a couple of times because we as people (yes everyone) don’t always get things the first/2nd/3rd time so try and remember those things before you go trashing someone because they don’t know the same stuff you do…..and everyone have a great day :-)

    This is not about GTA. I’m trying to find UMD dumping software. Looked around but can’t find it. Could some good samaritan point me in the right direction also can UMD dump be used with version 2.0 or do I need to downgrade. Many thanks!

    From what i figured out it would be better to downgrade so go on: http://www.megagames.com i think and then you’ll find all the files you need! V2.00 to V1.50 and then there is a UMD dumper on there, from what i remember! hope that helps you out! :-)
