UMDGen 3.0 Released!
greg | May 1, 2006
Oooooh yeah, new version of UMDGen has been released! It’s been awhile since the initial release way back in September – and a few updates here and there. This new version [v3.0] promises to be quite the improvement!
And to quickly recap – this Windows tool provides the ability to easily create “Universal Media Disc” (UMD) compliant PSP ISO images. No more messin’ around!
UMDGen’s GUI has been totally re-designed: improved menus, new toolbar, detailed PARAM.SFO information, etc…
Additional updates include: (from the ReadMe.txt)
Ability to rename files and folders.
Duplicate file/folder checking. When an item is added, UMDGen will ask if you wish to replace the file/folder contents if the items already exist in the compilation – this is the new way to update files, simply add them to the compilation and select yes when asked if you want to replace them.
Hide files/folders. This option was added because it may be needed sometime in the future (PS2 protection included hidden files in ISO’s) until then – you can always hide your porn with it. Once a file/folder is hidden you can ‘un-hide’ it by right-clicking the item in LBA VIEWPORT and select ‘Un-Hide’ from the menu. This is only available while the compilation is still open – once you have saved as an ISO and closed the compilation the files will be completely hidden.
Accelerator keys added (Keyboard Shortcuts).
ADD EXISTING FOLDER routine has been re-written. Hopefully users who were having problems adding folders in previous versions will now be able to do so without difficulty. You can even add items directly from mounted images now.
Launch files. You can double-click a file in UMDGen for it to automatically open in whatever associated application is on your system. Example, double-clicking ‘PIC1.PNG’ will open that file in your default PNG viewing program.
File relinking routines have been updated. Some users reported previous versions were a bit buggy so this has been fixed.
Improved the code for moving files in LBA VIEWPORT. Users can now drag and drop all selected files instead of having to do them individually.
PPF Patcher. You can apply a ppf directly to an ISO or any individual file in the compilation.
Dummy File Search. This feature will scan the open ISO for dummy data files and, if found, automatically resize them to 0 bytes.
Sector Viewer. View files or the ISO in Hex Format. Using the button on the toolbar will view Sector 0 as default, right-clicking on a file and selecting sector view will display the file location sector.
Padding is now default to none, users have the option to modify the padding values from 0 to UMD default or enter a custom amount of LBAs between files.
Debug Console. This is available to help with any problems users may have. It gives a general output wich can be examined by us to help fix the problem.
Optional Path Tables. Part of the ISO header but not generally used. Can be disabled if required.
DAX ISO support. Open and edit DAX ISO images the same as any uncompressed image. Uncompress Dax images: there are 2 ways of doing this, open the DAX iso and then either select ’save as’ from the menu or press the ‘uncompress DAX ISO’ button from the toolbar. The first way constructs a new iso which would include any changes you make in the compilation. The second way is just a direct uncompression of the original iso.
Enjoy!

booya first, and if fanjita(or any other good psp programmer) is reading this can you please help the 3.0 guy with an installer because im too much of a noob to do anything it would be your greatest feat
does this work for 2.60 ver
SWEET, a dax option! Now I have reduced steps in iso loading! (#2, WHAT THE FUCK. DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT THIS IS. IT’s a program for windows to create isos out of UMDs. YOU ARE A DUMBASS and BUY A FREAKING 1.5 PSP FROM EBAY)
#3 stop being gay he’s just a n00b
#2 u shouldn’t have upgraded in the first place. the games that sony makes for the psp suck. and y would u want a web browser when u have a computer? if u want to kno so bad u find out by using fanjita’s eloader fo ur firmware.
Awesome! The 1.5 will never die!
. . . “until then – you can always hide your porn with it.”
This absolutely disgusts me. This is assuming that every PSP owner is a porn addict, and is encourging the use of this program because you won’t get caught with your pornography. I for one WILL NOT use this application on my PSP 1.5, solely because of the promotion of pornography which is so prevalent in this society. If any of you struggles with pornography I will pray for release for you from this bondage to sin. It is a seriously issue in this day of age where porn internet pop-ups are a frequent occurance. For prayer or questions don’t hesitate to email me at admin@gordiehannan.com
Umm, okay, I have no idea why UMDGen has to do with porn. But yea, anyways, great Update. VIVA LA UMDGen!
#7 are you religious or trying to be funny because this has nothing to do with porn at all so shut the hell up
#9 – I am indeed a follower of Christ, I know the app has nothing to do with porn in its primary functions. However, the thought that the author of UMDGen even thought of using this “hide” feature for hiding pornography has a word to say about his hearts condition.
Matthew 15:18 says this “But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man.” Even having a thought that people might use this feature to hide their porn shows that this is an immediately what he had to say of it. He didn’t say it could be used to hide a game system files or any of the sort instead he said pornography. This shows whats in the authors heart, just think upon what I said #9.
ok this is a psp site, i dont think anyone here wants to know what mathew 15:18 says bc the bible is too damn long. although i think im probably the only atheist on this site its king of anoying coming here and hearing u preech the bible
kind*
Thanks for the tool, big improvement from last version. #7, calm down, supercatholic. You can’t force your views upon everyone. It was a joke, let it go, stop being to uptight.
I have a question and please if youre going to say something rude just keep it to yourself. Which game is better. “FIFA 2006″ or “2006 FIFA WORLD CUP”??
Wow, that’s totaly off topic, but anyways. they are both made by ea, both are the same year. My say, get both. world cup has a team manager and focuses more on the international side of soccer. Fifa 2006 is a port of the one on ps2 with some fixes and minigames and online play. You decide. Frankly, i hate sports games, i’m just basing this on gamespot. Anyways, hope you decide and WRITE ONLY COMMENTS RELEVENT TO THE DISCUSSION!!!!
aweosome!!1 lol.1111one111!11 pr0n!!1 1yeay!!122!
hey! waz up. this is COOl… this work w/ eLoader? i might as well try it out.. :) LADA!
LMAO Hey religious zealot # 7, this is why anyone who can think for themselves hates most institutionalised religions, your preaching (and the fact that you do preach) is nothing but the by product of millenia of brainwashing, and don’t even start on the sex topic fool, tell me how clean your “priest’s” are.
I did 12 years of catholic schooling, and i personally think the religion is a joke, how rich is the Vatican again? But i won’t’ say it’s a joke because that’s not politically correct (and half my family are brainwashed sheep) :D
Fuck it i could go all day, but won’t. Off topic enough as is.
Great work on the latest release of umd gen, def be grabbin this after work. Cheers.
good good. I like to see progress .
NO #1 your an idiot. Installers are the scum of the earth. If it wernt for installers then pritty much any program would work on any operating system.
ps. yes i know thats not really all true but it does help not having installers.
Top stuff, any one had any luck with OUT RUN yet?? UMDgen shound fix up that one file named ALL in the ISO….yeah?? kinda fell sorry for 2.6 users.
@ # 7
WOW i really hope yur some borred guy writing that b/c you enjoy starting arrguments. But if you are serious, and you belive all that garbage you just said… I really hope you never find someone crazy enough to have children with.
#7 and #10 (same guy) so you are religous enough to avoid porn, but not enough to use illegal psp app !?! I guess if you’re interested in iso, you are using isoloader so i’ll assume you play illegal copy too. unlessssssss you have version 2.7 like every legit catholic and have no reason to be interested in Iso or dumper or ripper or whateverrrrrr.
keep religion out of this world (internet) =)
GREAT WORK for this release
