[RELEASE] - CTF Manager v2.0

[Red_Squirrel]

New update to my GUI known as CTF Manager
The most important feature is the compatibility with CF 4.01M33 CTF themes
WARNING: it works ONLY with CTF themes created with "official" Poison release of CXMB (so 3.2 and 3.2.1). It seems does not work with Miriam's CXMB mod

What's it?
It is a simple GUI for ctf/unctf tools.
With this program you can create CTF theme files directly on your PC, without the need of a PSP!
You can also extract files from a CTF file and install CTF themes in your PSP!

Features
v2.0
-Possibility to create CTF themes for CF 4.01M33!
-Possibility to extract file from a CTF file made with CXMB 3.2 (ONLY with the "official" Poison CXMB!)
-Now program is all in a single EXE
-If program does not find required folders it will create them automatically!
-Now you can use also CTF custom names that contain spaces.
-Added some security checks (to avoid some NET Framework error messages).

v1.0
-Possibility to create CTF themes using only a PC!
-Possibility to extract files from a CTF file (files will be put in EXTRACTED folder)
-Possibility to install easily required PRXs in SUPPORT folder (they have to be put in SUPPORT folder in any case, otherwise program will not work!).

Note: program will not require a installation, but it requires the .NET Framework 3.5 (you can download it FREE from Microsoft website!).

How do you use this program?

I getting the error: Warning: program did NOT found one of the following required PRXs:

1. common_gui.prx
2. paf.prx
3. vshmain.prx

You have to install them if you want to use this program!

How do I find and install these files?

Thanks

Thanks

you get them from your flash0 or decrypted version of these files from a ofw update dump (using red squirrel's PSAR dumper)

once you found them just put them in the same folder as the exe.

which leads me to a problem not realted to what i just said which is that when i load ctf manager it just crashes & windows says there a problem & needs to close.
I have Net Framwork 3.0 or 3.5 installed.
is there any dll files i need to use it

Do you never make a CTF file? PTFs are required to show the CTFs under Theme Settings menu in PSP

From the official CXMB readme:

-=THEME INSTALLATION=-
Traditional Theme (CXMB full version only):
-Download SCE's official ptf Custom Theme Converter here:
http://www.jp.playstation.com/psp/dl...stom_Theme.zip
-Prepare a 16x16 256 colors png, a 300x170 24bit bmp for preview, and a 480x272 bmp format wallpaper optionally.
-Use the Converter to produce a ptf file contain the above preview icon, preview image and wallpaper at your option.
-Copy the ptf file to ms0:/cxmb/

In this case you don't need to copy it in ms0:/cxmb but to open it with the program (where required)

so do I just use any ptf
