PSArchiver 0.15

What does this homebrew do?
Do you ever wanted to download homebrews without the use of a computer? Then it's your turn! Download a lot of homebrews right onto your PSP. Everything you need is a PSP and a WLAN Connection. Then, connect to the AP and start downloading your favourite homebrews.

List the homebrews alphabetically, search for them, have a look at other's favourite homebrews!

How to use?
All you need to do is to download this piece of software: psarchiver.freehoster.ch/psarchiver/psarchiver/EBOOT.PBP. Place it in X:\PSP\GAME\PSArchiver\ for clarity^^

When you have a look at a multi-page-category, press L and R to go to the next page(s). Press X to get to the "Info-Screen". Press X again to download the homebrew, circle to cancel.

Please post missing homebrews as a comment to the most recent entry here: psarchiver.freehoster.ch. Also additional feature-requests go there. Thanks!

Sorry, I can't post any links right now. You'll have to copy and paste the links above. :Cry:

Have fun while you experience your favourite apps!

Cool, similar like the Installotron, but that only had like 30 apps and was never updated.

Why not make it work with http://www.psp-homebrew.eu/?

[CKNICK]

Thanks, testing it....

Yes it works! looks sweet dude.

[vista200]

GREAT! Thanks for the link! I never knew about the page. I'll give them a speech to see what I can reach. Maybe a huge step and increasing page-numbers fast?

Yes, it is updated. Otherwise the version wouldn't be 0.15 ;)

I decided to add a start-option, so you don't need to quit the PSA and launch the new homebrew by hand. I just didn't managed it to launch ISOs like FallBall v3 nor do I check, whether a 1.50-Kernel-Homebrew is launched on a slim.

I'll add a Settings-menu soon for this "security-check" etc.

I'm looking for Beta-Testers, but ATM there is no beta

Happy downloading,
vista200

Nice app! Great work vista200!

The only suggestion I have would have to be adding emulators to the list. I recently formatted my MS by accident and this would save time in moving things around from the PC. :)

EDIT: Just noticed that CXMB was removed from my game.txt after downloading the music.prx plugin.

Entries in my list shows exactly like so:

ms0:/seplugins/music.prx
:/seplugins/hold.prx 1
ms0:/seplugins/vshmenu.prx 1
ms0:/seplugins/versionspoof.prx 1
ms0:/seplugins/ledcontrol.prx 1
ms0:/seplugins/screenshot.prx 1
ms0:/seplugins/remotejoylite.prx 0

Works good vista200

[vista200]

It never came to my mind to check the seplugin-files. I thought they will work. Whenever I tried to download plugins, it worked like magic. It'd be interesting to see how your "new lines" are looking. Are they "Windows" or "UNIX"? I'm writing UNIX-linefeeds all the time. This may lead to some "malfunctions" on Windows-formatted linefeeds, such as replacing the first character in a new line.

I'll go and rewrite the whole unzip-seplugins-extract-that-it-works-function

vista200

[Zevlar]

Awesome program. The only thing I would recommend would be to make the interface a bit prettier and add screenshots for each program.

The downloading of seplugins work fine, it's just the part where it adds the lines for the plugin that messes up a little in the vsh and game text files.

What it had looked like was like just like this in vsh.txt:
ms0:/SEPLUGINS/someplugin.prx:/SEPLUGINS/anotherplugin.prx

No spacing nor line breaks. It didn't write "ms0". for the second plugin.

For game.txt, it just erased the first line of whatever plugin is there and adds the entry for the newly downloaded plugin.

How would I find out if the text files are formatted UNIX or Windows? If it makes any difference, I edit my text files using good old Notepad in Windows

when i want to download boombastic it downloads virtual globe instead

I can't see a mistake, when I select Boombastic, it downloads Boombastic. When I select Virtual Globe, it downloads Virtual Globe.

From which menu did you select the download? I tried it from "View DB" and from "Most Wanted". Both downloaded the correct homebrew. Maybe update the db (First point of main menu )? This is the only thing i could think of.

To the "unzip-seplugins-extract-that-it-works-function": I fixed it, but my Dev-VM died, so I'm a bit of helpless ATM. Now, I read the whole txt-file, check for occurence of the plugin-line, if so, the function goes on, if not, it writes it at the end. Then, the whole buffer is written again into the file. Seems to be overkill, but in my opinion a applicable solution.

"Thanks" for these bugs^^

Thanks I will try it again. With everything I download it downloads virtual globe, but I will download again and use

Are you sure, you haven't activated the 1.50 kernel? This is a 3.XX Kernel and higher homebrew. When launching it in 1.50 Kernel you'll get till the "pre-netdialog"-phase. This is, where you are stuck. If you already have selected the higher kernel, update your firmware. I'm the first one, who updates his PSPs, so I tested the builds with 5.00 M33-4 ( + 1.50 Kernel on fat). I ran into these problems too... So I know how to solve them^^
EDIT: You could also put the Homebrew into the GAME3XX, GAME4XX or GAME5XX folder...

Yours,
vista200

I'm not going to lay it down As I already said, I'm the first, who updates his PSPs. When a TimeMachine 0.2 becomes available, I'll install any available M33 firmware to secure compatibility.

When I manage it to fix the bug, which came to me while downlading the M33-Update, I'll release a bugfix-version.

BTW: May I need to write to another mod to insert the links?^^

So far, vista200

[Predator04]

any progress?

[TokyoDrift]

yeah the project gets better pretty fast
I made a new User Interface, fixed the plugin stuff, fixed some other bugs and made the code a lot shorter
the new GUI isn't finished 100%, there is one menu I don't know how to design it
but that's not the problem
the problem is vista200 was rly pissed off from this plugin stuff and now he was online the last 4 days one time and this one time he was like "i don't know what PSA is"...-.-
I can't decide to make any release, ask for help or such stuff without asking him first because he is the developer and I was just asked to design the new gui....
whatever, we'll see, as soon as vista is online again we'll talk and finish 0.16

[croontje]

Awesome! Way the go i'd love to see more versions!

[svexenburg]

I can't get it to work...starts up fine then says "error 404" then "init failed!"

[M33_User]

Kinda old program. Is your psp even hacked?

[Gefa]

Uhm, have you ever tried Uplink by bigboss? It allows you to download and automatically install on your ms the homebrews present in psp-ita.com

[I-am-nobody]

It did work for me but it dont work now, it comes up with "error 404" when i try to download. Even the dev's site is down "psarchiver.freehoster.ch "
