Official PSVita/PSP chat thread

yeah, you can use a 512 stick for the job and if you buy the Datel pandora battery, it’ll take you a total of 5 minutes that you can do YOURSELF.

But really… try to find somebody who has a CFW phatty cause you’re saving yourself 40 bucs

Hey MechZZ, once you have the MMS and Pandora battery, you can just install and update the M33 to the lastest version, and than remove the MMS and use a standard memory card and battery, right? I looked at that guide and wasn’t too sure.

After you put the memory stick and pandora battery in and let it do it’s process, you can simply convert you battery back to a normal one and then format the memory stick.

Then yeah, you can upgrade to the lastest CFW

Ahhh okay. Is it beneficial to keep the MMS and Pandora battery? I will probably be homebrewing my friends’ PSP once they get them as well and I don’t want to go through the whole process of making the tools again.

The process takes you all of 10 minutes. So not really, if you ever need to do it again just start over. Whenever I mod my friends’ psps, I tell them that they to bring their own memory stick so I can make that one into the MMS

Seriously, once you have CFW it only takes the PSP a matter of changing the batteries seriel to 0-ffffffff. It takes like two seconds to do. The only thing is, with a PB you need the multi ipl so it has to be stored on every MS you use, otherwise the PSP wont boot. Only down side is, if your PSP fucks, and you don’t have PB, you’re screwed… I would reccomend buying a new battery for gaming, you don’t have to, but it’s nice to not have to mess around with the ipl and you still have pandora.

is there a way to view FAQS downloaded into a psp?

All you need to have at 255 are VIT and SPR. Maybe LCK, if you want to avoid crits. Nothing else matters because her stats are so high that you will be relying exclusively on Costly Punch for damage.

Oh, and make sure you have at least 65000 HP.

She wards Graviga I guess?

She wards everything.

Bitch…

So, no games work so far, and yes I’m new to the whole emulation thing…

-I assume I need to format a memory stick for the games to work? (*I’ll get another one; I’d like to keep this one memory stick “magical”…plus it’s a miracle the shit worked in the first place since I was emulating Windows XP on this Mac, and the system was clearly struggling to handle that due to scant hdd space and really low memory. Heh, I’m still surprised that worked.)

-Or, are the files just in the wrong places? I’ve put games into the emulator folders…either just in there generally or in the “roms” folder when one is specified. I only have mame and cps2 on the card so far. The emulators themselves show up with the logo and everything. Mame says "Game could not be played " with that 800something# error. CPS2 appears but doesn’t do anything.

-I never used the cookie theme before…everything looks so …delicious. It would be nice to see other food themes as well, like pizza, steaks, fried chicken…burgers…

Are you Slim or Phat?

If you’re using a Phat, you need to cache the ROM files using the program provided with the emulator. On a Slim this isn’t neccisary however some games do require caching…

If the emulator runs, you’re fine, you just have your directories wrong by the sounds of things.

EDIT: PM sent. Not sure if this was rule breaking.

Bookr

I jus bought me a new game… well used… but new to me.

Monster Hunter Freedom 2.

it’s supposed to be one of the best PSP game in Japan.

also one of the rarest in America! a used copy went for $45 on ebay!!

I got mine complete for $20 at Gamecrazy! whoo! way cheaper than the used price at Gamestop AFTER 35% off bonuses… seriously.

good thing it was impossible to find at gamestop.

The PSP really does have some awesome games. It’s just that they don’t really advertise these games.

Yo, I finally started playing it, it’s dope as hell. I played lots of the PS2 version, so this is all good to me. The only thing is, you have to like collecting shit and grinding the same maps and mobs. That’s just the nature of the game. But the new armors and weapons are totally worth it.

Bumpity bump.

While the emulation world definintely is cool, I find that it has little to offer me specifically. I’d like to go back to official FW tonight if possible.

You’re willing to go BACK to OFW?

Get out.

3.95 OFW just came out. Just download the OFW off of Sony’s site, install, and you should be good to go.

Get out.
