MasterBoy 2.01 Released

greg | August 28, 2007

Brunni has updated MasterBoy to version 2.01. Appropriately titled, MasterBoy emulates the Nintendo Game Boy, Super Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and the SEGA Master System & Game Gear handheld. Not only that, there are many configurable options to further aid in your emulation enjoyment — retrofitting the retro, if you will. See MasterBoy.pdf for complete documentation.

v2.01 changes:

  • Finished the english documentation on how to colorize your games!
  • This version fixes a bug with sound volume when loading RIN states.
  • The file list can now display up to 1024 roms.
  • Added a small debug mode for the kernel version (copy the EBOOT from the Kernel mode directory to your MasterBoy directory on the PSP – this version runs significantly slower, so use it only for debugging and colorization). For people who reported me strange problems, press L+R+Triangle in the menu. It will show the available RAM. If you have the problem of save states not working after a while, please tell me how this value evolutes. Also, if this mode is enabled when going to Save states, SRAM, Save now, a message box with some information will appear, if you have the SRAM problem (not saving) please report to me the displayed text.
  • Bugfixes

CWCHEAT 0.1.9 REV. C Released!

greg | August 27, 2007

Throw up your dubs and welcome the release of C “W” Cheat 0.1.9 revision C. Cheat your PSP and PSOne-emulated games like it ain’t no thang. I had intentions of posting this earlier, unfortunately consoleworld was down. Now it’s back up, so be sure to visit and fetch the latest cheat database while you’re at it. (see source link)

What’s weltall sayin’?

This version adds the possibility to load up to 128 text files per game id, by easily putting a number after the id for the files 1-127 (the first file is just the id.txt like before). Other than this there are various improvement in the bootup function, the separation of the vsh from homebrew (so also a new id specifically for the vsh, like those checking the online db may have already noticed right not) and the removal of useless code from the code managing the screen clearing when entering in the cwcheat menu (if enabled). This code seemed to make also games like brave story crash, so now it will work fine in dungeons even if the clear background function is enabled.

CWCHEAT 0.1.9 REV. C

  • [ALL] now the text reader supports up to 128 text files per id:
    Press L/R to go to the previous/next text file.
    The name is similar to how the cheat.db name works: The first file is named with just the id.txt (just like now), all the others are the id + the number + .txt
    eg: with SLUS_12345 as id. The first file is SLUS_12345.txt the next SLUS_123451.txt,SLUS_123452.txt~SLUS_12345127.txt
  • [GAME] Improved disc id detection runtimes and by putting a new check for the mount status of isofs. This improved cwcheat startup speed (were applyable) and compatibility. This should also reduce the risk of the cheat list being corrupted.
  • [ALL] Added detection of vsh mode. So now vsh has it’s own id different from the one for homebrews. Cheats for vsh/vsh homebrews which were previously under the “HOMEBREW” id were moved in the new “VSH” id
  • [ALL] Removed rendundant code from the function which cleared the screen upon entering the cwcheat menu (if enabled)
    This fixed also the brave story crash problem as before, most probably, some data stored in the vram was being overwritten.

Slash-N-Flash users, this is for you! Slasher has compiled a collection of PSP themes for use with Slash-N-Flash V3.

Note: Some themes use the vsh.prx version. All you have to do is restore the ‘original’ theme first before installing other themes.

Just cut all the themes from the ‘themes(3.52 ONLY)’ folder and paste them into the ‘themes’ folder provided in the Slash-N-Flash V3 download. These themes are all prepackaged and ready to be used in Slash-N-Flash.

These themes are obviously meant for 3.52 ONLY. DO NOT FLASH THESE ONTO ANY OTHER FIRMWARE. 3.52 ONLY!
