Yaaaay to another shell I wont be using because the XMB is STILL better….
the xmb doesnt let me view copy paste edit unzip an unrar so it doesnt even come close to irshell
its just the 1.0 version, I bet this will be pretty good in the future, nice release ;)
(O_O)b
haha excellent work , looks like NervOS is picking up where ahman left off with this new shell. since ahman’s been doing irshell for a long time, i’m kinda used to irshell and i trust it a lot. so i’ll be using irshell for a while. but this looks great and has a future in the psp hacking community, and i know i will be using this soon.
once again excellent work!
Is it just me, or does this homebrew seem kinda.. Pointless. Everything you can do on that ‘brew, you can do EVERYTHING on the Custom Firmwared PSP already. If someone is developing a nice Homebrew for this competition, do something nice. Don’t get me wrong, this ‘brew is alright and I’ve used it, but I just don’t see the point. Get my point ?
Good point….if you think so,WHY don’t YOU make something which is USEFUL and stop giving idiotic comments on things that you can’t do.It’s an EXCELLENT homebrew.
calm down
it aint that EXCELLENT
Dude shut up idiot I am so sick of people saying OOOHH duh um why dont you make it if you so smart and shit all he was saying is that if your going to put forth the effort that it took to make this, you might as well put it towards something we do not already have. Great work by the way its just I agree with playboy.
since 3.90 CFW doesn’t really work with the “ingame” music feature in the IRSHELL, hopefully in the future this shell will get the same feature that is supportive
You can do that in normal CFW, just need a plugin.
Uhm…
So is this work based off irshell’s src? Cuz I know ahman was going to release the src at some point. So Did Nervo actually get the src and tweak from there or is this from scratch?
from scratch
homebrews [like these] just don’t pop up overnight.
i know nervo and am admin on his forum he made this from scratch! it took him 2 months to make!
i no pirata as well and i go there too.
will all of the contest entries be posted on the psp-hacks homepage or will there be only some on the homepage? will all of the entries be in the forums? btw will definately check this out in a couple of more releases….
Does it have an UMD Mass storage ability?
nicee, hopefully this will continue to grow into somehting great, i dont like irshell much maybe this will be different
Well, nice to see the first entry, congrats on it being so, and good luck, Pirata Nervo. Definitely look foward to seeing any bugs in this worked out before I’ll use it, but perhaps i’ll give it a shot. Good luck again.
Screw you all who’re flaming. most of you are so good at critiquing and pointing out how this homebrew fails, but i’d like to see any of you submit something worth trying.
I know this is a 1.0 and is an early version. Looks good for a start. The first IRshell didnt look or function that well but it kept developing and working until what it’s become now. Comparing this 1.0 to the current IRshell isn’t a very even comparison, but the creator still has much room to grow.
I hope that there is finally a competition for IRShell, not that i dislike ahman’s work either.
they can’t do what he does, so they criticize what he does, a true definition of a hater. simple as that
I agree with you a 100%.
i agree with ppl “critiquing and pointing” how homebrews suck, wen they can’t even get close to makin something as good or even at all.
i agree to the idea of ppl “criti…
everybody CALM DOWN!
this homebrew is a 1.0 and an early version
right about that
so why the hell should ne1 care about this?
we have irshell
its better
its a later version
sure its not an even comparison either
but thats the point
why use this when u can use irshell?
I agree that IRshell does surpass this shell, but that doesn’t mean im not interested in it. he could throw in features that IRshell doesn’t have. Also, Irshell is only re-releasing the same old thing with new tweaks. has been for a while. I’m not putting down irshell, that is why it’s become so stable, but with new development starting, we could see some real new stuff here. By automatically saying that this new shell sucks means that we’re not encouraging further development. Think of all the people who may have said that about dev hook or Dark_Alex’s work who were just happy with the golden firmware and look at where we’re at now.
He should do what Ahman never did in Irshell
Video Player!
What he should implement for this shell is divx, xvid and mpg support along with the standard mov suppor. This would be a great addition.
The only reason there isnt a implemented a xvid, divx, etc. is because they require alot of processing power that the psp dosent have..
i look forward to future releases, keep it up
how come no homebrews shells have a multitasking feature like irshell via L and select if ahman could make that code public … only then a shell can surpass irshell
i agree with Influence, a video player would be nice in future releases. but great release, keep it up
pointless toot, I couldnt mAke it but hey if I could, I wouldn’t. Long live CFW.
Mate,if you feel it’s pointless,please give some suggestions on it to make it useful
I feel as a developer, you should try and work on extending the xmb, People like it, its what there used to and it works, but lacks features, surely the need for a different shell is purley for peoples tates, which will change. I mean, does anyone have any problems with the sony xmb, other than the fact that it lacks a lot of feautues. I personally feel its quite a nice interface to use. Not being negative but I really cant see the point, no offence to anyone meant
this seems really great :) cant wait for future releases
Now this is not a flame comment or anything, this is definately some nice work…but I don’t think it has what it takes to blow everyone’s mind for the competition.
I personally don’t see what the big deal is about a custom shell…so I shall wait for more entries to arise for the competition :)
Nice, when it does and if it will support nethostfs this will end up in my psp :)
come on guys…. Its free and your flaming him, he doesnt have to let you use it. All the newbies to the hombrew scene are so rude…
Great hombrew mate!
Totally 100% Be nice guys.
lewson,you’re the man.We need more people like you. :D
playboy ur totally gay
immature yes
but ur gay
shut up
so far it has seemed like a good shell for a 1.0… keep up the good work!
will it delete stuff in sections like tgame section?
Justin,it won’t delete anything. :)
FFS…totally useless.
PLEASE MAKE SOMETHING BETTER…we dont need these stuff..
FFS…totally useless.
PLEASE MAKE SOMETHING BETTER…we dont need these stuff..
i din’t say that.
To be honest, these need critisism, if not, how would you be able to really say which is the best CFW? Critisism should be welcomed. Yes if someone doesn’t like it, say and why. If you like it, say and why. Then maybe Nervos can go back and do something else to try and make it better for future releases.
constructive criticism is different, but saying “this app sucks and u should stop makin homebrew” is not constructive and unnecessary.
the psp has way too many amazing homebrew goodies for it ,so in respect to the author ,yeh its a nice peice of work but we need to see the sparkley eyes lighting up at something new or never been done before on psp to get a chance of winning the golden prize. !!!!
btw, i had put my thoughts across on what would be very kool for psp to win golden prize, and from the looks of things a custom gui is the right place to start ,get some plugins running at the sametime/multitask and you have a winner.
Well, thank you for all comments and criticism (they are always welcomed when they are constructive).
I’ve a list of new features and I am already wroking on v1.2 (I’ve finsihed 1.1). Thank you.
this app is a great start, though i don’t believe it will go anywhere for a long time, cause of how stable and user friendly ir shell is. however if there was a video player, multitasking, and hosting it would be very useable, i do like the idea of it being able to play homebrew without having to switch between 3.xx and i.5 versions like ir shell. keep it up, looking forward to future releases.
See, I actually find IR Shell extremely un-user friendly and messy. Right now I’m pretty happy with the regular XMB and USBhostFS running on it.
its only messy cause you havent looked into any custom backrounds. and it is very user friendly, just like everything else you have to get used to it first, just like this program, but until it has more features i refuse to try.
how could u say its not user friendly
its designed very well and its similar to windows explorer
just find the music folder, any folder, select the songs with circle to make a playlist, pick the last with x and u have a playlist running
then u can play an iso
and thats the most basic part of irshell
theres so much u can do with it
u need to take the time to learn it (15 min at most for the basic necessities)
I say the author of this should go look into making this easily skinable. Like UnleashX. I do like supporting alternative shell’s and hope that development continues.
i asked him about that and he said he was goin to.
ok first i wanna say nice job and i do say this is usefull think of it not needing sonys offical firm. or having to boot up a second hombrew to run other stuff (not putting down irshell ive had it since 1st release) and take up more mem on the psp (not saying that this doesnt take up any) but come on with further up dates it might be just as good as irshell. and if we put down every homebrew that was a “copy” ideas wouldnt have been thrown around to improve on one another. all im saying is dont kill something before it starts again great job for this app and to all devs. no matter how “little” or “useless” an app or mod may seem
Now this is home brew worth mentioning… its not *great* yet but with a little more time, it could be better than IRShell.
Congratulations on coding this neat application mate! Keep up the good work. I’m sure you will implement something that will make the flamers cry! :)
nice job, looking forward for more….
Make it work from flash… Lol
Test30 would have done a better job that this! LOL
where shoud i put the rar file on my psp
