[RELEASE] Ebootr Beta

[indrora]

Ebootr 0.01 release beta by Indrora

Ebootr is a replacement for PBP Unpacker. It was written in C# against the .NET 3.5 Runtime. If you keep your computer anywhere up to date, you should be fine. otherwise, be sure to download it from microsoft:
Download details: .NET Framework 3.5

Its fast, except when copying data from large (i.e. >400MB) Eboots. On my 2.1Ghz box, it took ~10 seconds to create an eboot off of Final Phantasy Origins (keeping only DATA.PSAR and DATA.PSP and PARAM.SFO)

For those interested, I've included my Eboot loader library in source form.

Have fun!

Also, this is posted here because I have no friggin clue how to post to the downloads section.

Very cool. :)
Do you plan on furthering this project ?

Maybe adding support for injecting resources.
Maybe add support for icon1.pmf, and pic1.png - and allow editing of Eboot title.

I see this program has a lot of potential, thanks for sharing

[indrora]

I do plan on making it a little better, and I'm working on some bugfixes.

Currently, if it crashes it dumps what was going on at the time to the desktop as a text file that gives me some amount of information.

What I plan on making work:

• Extraction of all resources.
  Currently, All i can extract is data.psp and a few others.
• incorperation of some form of patching system
• EBOOT.PBP integrety checking
• Some kind of SFO Editor

To edit an Eboot, create a "new" one use either the "select" or "all" from current items.

However, I'm currently armed with the wonderful documentation included in PBP Unpacker on the SFO Format, so I may write a simple SFO editor that goes along with it. :)

It looks really cool very promising; you might want to include a preview feature sort of like PSX2PSP.
Also i got this error while trying to save to my PSP MS

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

Ah! Thats bad. Turns out, I forgot that I lock the file when I open it, so If you overwrite the file you have open you get an error (I apparently didnt catch that one right.)

EDIT: In the next release, you wont be seeing those messages. I'm going to be writing them to a text file on your desktop so that its a little easier (just attach the file)

[indrora]

'kay guys, expect an update tonight. Since I code at night and work all day (on non-coding things, unfortunately) I'll have stuff wrapped up for y'all pretty quickly.

What I have updated so far:

• A somewhat together XMB Preview (No text because I cant seem to read SFOs for the life of me.)
• Extraction of all resources (sorry guys its just as fast as your hdd).
• Documentation! there's a real help file now, and its got *pictures*
• Checking if you're saving to the file you've got open (and asking if you want to close it and save)
• Error checking of the "magic bytes" (first four bytes) of each file (So far, I have the images, SND0.AT3, data.PSP and param.sfo).
• more descriptive error messages
• better error handling (Now, if I dont catch something in my main code round, it gets automatically written to your desktop).
• Checks for PARAM.SFO and Data.PSP being in the Eboot
• Extracting all files/data.psar now says "Do you really want to extract xxx mb?" and confirms a possible long operation.

A big *huge* note:
Saving anything larger than about 2MB right now takes Forever when you save it directly to your PSP! I dont know if the PSP3K has a USB 2.0 line on it, but PSP2k's have a USB 1.1 line on them, so its slooooooooow and PSP1k's are just painful.

What I'm considering is taking and making the saving process have some form of update window. To be honest, I'm not happy with how I have the saving process is set up at the moment. I could do *much* better.

Other future things include:

• Eboot checking (header checking against offsets)
• KXploit un-patching
• A sack of potatoes.
• Popstation front end???

[mame56]

could you give some examples to explain what this is.
