PSP-Maps 0.4 Released *Updated*

greg | March 13, 2008

Update: Royale has shared PSP-Maps 0.4; most notably adding support for offline browsing.

PSP-Maps 0.4 changes:

  • added a cache on the memory stick
  • allows offline browsing of maps in the cache
  • added a configuration file
  • added options to disable disk cache and transition effects
  • added an error image when view is not available
  • better zoom level (thanks to elefas for the tip)

Royale’s been awfully busy with the Chromium-PSP port and his rapidly maturing homebrew app called PSP-Maps. I refrained from posting earlier versions until trying the latest, that is now version 0.3.

PSP-Maps

Royale’s Google Maps implementation doesn’t utilize the Google Maps API; for now, it simply retrieves and displays images direct on the PSP. With that said, you’ll need to be within range of a connected WiFi spot for PSP-Maps to work. Enjoy!

Controls:

  • D-PAD: move the map.
  • Analog: scroll the map smoothly.
  • R trigger: zoom in.
  • L trigger: zoom out.
  • X, /\, [], O: change view.
  • Start: PSP-Maps menu — load/save favourites.

Download:
PSP-Maps 0.4 (cfw 3.xx)

Anyway to view the maps on the psp via wifi and then just download all the data to the memory stick for viewing later rather than needed wifi access everytime? (like a cache)

Would be great on certain trips where i have no maps and just my psp.

very nice.. it would be more awesome if it was possible to save the whole thing….as you zoom you wouldent need to use wifi to scroll or load new areas…

skeric17, if it doesn’t work, your firmware might be too old or you didn’t put it in the game3XX folder.

Works perfect for me – there is a small glitch in that if you try to zoom in beyond the maximum then you can’t scroll the screen. But I looked up my neighborhood in Germany and it looks great.
