iR Shell 3.9 Released

greg | January 28, 2008

All good things must come to an end… Ahman, developer of iR Shell — probably the best homebrew to ever exist for the PSP — has waved goodbye leaving behind one final release.

iR Shell is literally packed with a remarkable feature set for both Slim and Fat models — listen to MP3’s while in-game, multi-task between UMD/ISO/homebrew and any of iR Shell’s built-in functions, enjoy 2 player PSOne games wirelessly with another PSP, etc… The fun never stops!

If you’re a newcomer, I suggest you download and open the included PDF-formatted user guide to get started. You won’t be disappointed.

iR Shell 3.9 Menu

New iR Shell 3.9 features:

  • Added support for 3.80M33-2, M33-4 & M33-5. Pls note M33-1 & M33-3 are not supported due to some technical issues which I’m lazy to resolve.
  • Added support for 3.80 Popsloader Version 2. Version 1 isn’t supported.
  • The 1.5 Kernel Addon for 3.71M33 & 3.80M33 has caused some incompatibility issues with fw 1.5 iR Shell. This is now resolved.
  • Enhance PSP ISO compatability. Previously failed ISOs will probably work in this release.
  • For slim only, the nethostfs MAX mode is now compatible with WPA.
  • Some older firmware supports have been removed to reduce the distribution archive. This version has support for fw 1.5, 3.10 to 3.80. Also, directories EXTAPP15 & EXTAPP3X have been combined into a single EXTAPP to save space. Each APP# directory has 2 EBOOTs, with EBOOT.PBP for fw 3.x and EBOOT15.PBP for fw 1.5.

Farewell Ahman. We at PSP Hacks wish you success in your future endeavors.

Ahman thank you for your work and all I have to say about you leaving is “ah man, why?”

omg ppl are retarded. HES NOT GONE. 1) Why do you think it says 3.9 not 4.0 on a final release? 2) omg nubs, HE SAID HE WAS GOING TO LEAVE WHEN HE MADE 2.2 (or 2.0). hes doing this to get donations, and i can hardly blame him. but just so you dumbasses know, hes not gone. hes still going to make them, it will just be about a month or two

Im having trouble booting iso/cso with this new irshell. i use m33 driver in the config. restart irshell and it still asks me to insert umd. looks to be some kind of bug….maybe ahman should wait to leave and do a 4.0 bug fix release.

Finally, now homebrew developers can use the source code (HexEdit) to update their plugins like the XMB/Game&HB-mp3 Player!?

Comment by Jes

I think you’re suppose to run the 3.0 patch for the 3.8 m33. That’s what the guide says (the one that comes with the download folder)

Comment by bori787
2008-01-29 00:10:07

there no 3.80 patch anywhere

Comment by Jes
2008-01-29 00:22:41

yeah, but there’s a 3.0 patch. Read the guide, very helpful.

Thanks Ahman for this by the way! I’m new to the scene but I can tell that you were freakin awesome. Good luck with everything

Ahman,
Instead of begging you to stay, but I wish you great luck. I appreciate everything. And so does everyone else.
I wish you would stay, because I’m sure custom firmwares will be updated, but… I thank you for all the work you’ve done.

Have a good one, as far as best homebrew ever? I dont know about that. I for one could never stand IRShell. But as always I appreciate anyone who makes the scene that much better.

 
Comment by Carnivac
2008-01-29 06:07:48

I appreciate the work gone into this but I can’t say I like it much. It feels pretty clumsy and awkward to use and doesn’t feel as intuitive as it could be. Personally I just wanted the usbhost stuff and can do that with the custom firmware extender.

Still, good luck to the author with whatever they plan to do next.

there is a nice well typed up readme in the download.

just paste the psp and seplugins folders onto the root of your memorystick, then go into the plugins option in recovery mode and enable the plugin

One of the best PSP apps out there. But if he’s leaving, he should at least give out the source code to someone he knows (or trusts). I mean, he wasted all that time to develop, update, distrubute AND support it… oh well.

IR Shell will go down in history no doubt about it.

Great way to retire, Ahman…
