To Install the X-Flash program, copy the Flashmod program folders in the usual GAME folder of a 1.50 PSP...

Like wtf? Flashmod appearing here, how co-incidential... :P
Why dont you donate your findings to icko to improve flashmod. :P

Could you explain the manual placement of each of these modified files, as i want to emulate their effect, and ur program will not suffice during emulation...

**SpiderJames** · 03-24-2006, 05:24 AM

this is a very nice release, thx

otacon91 · 03-24-2006, 05:39 AM

Just wondering...,
I thought flash was supposed to revert your psp to an older firmware version. Am I correct or just another moron?

**Kos** · 03-24-2006, 05:51 AM

^^? wtf...

TimSykes · 03-24-2006, 06:40 AM

the black background is a good idea. Looks good with my new font.

**Nevada** · 03-24-2006, 07:54 AM

Not to be a stick in the mud but opting to replace firmware data file files instead of patching them, means that you have to provide firmware files with the release, and as you probably already know, doing so isn't very legal.

**Striker1211** · 03-24-2006, 09:03 AM

Does this remove the gameboot file and the psp skips it, or do you like replace the gameboot with a blank movie?

Thanks!!!!

Will i be able to put this on my 1.5 PSP with this program???

**capnfuffy** · 03-24-2006, 12:33 PM

iv done the gameboot switch
but all it does it takes out the sound . .

**Art** · 03-24-2006, 12:44 PM

The white screen with PSP on it isn't part of the movie.... it's the short part with the
little coloured balls.

Could you put 1.5 gameboot and opening_plugin.rco there as well?
I can't make the program restore to original if I don't have the original files.
They aren't on my PSPs, so I can't read them off .

**Ranmax09** · 03-24-2006, 12:46 PM

I don't like these fonts

How do i put in the italic Font?
NVM, I GOT IT

**capnfuffy** · 03-24-2006, 12:49 PM

thanks for clearing that up
so theres no way of getting rid of the whole scene when booting something?

**Art** · 03-24-2006, 12:50 PM

replace the file ltn0.pgf in the Xflash folder with the font you like.
I don't suggest changing too much in that folder. If I could hide it's contents
in the Eboot, I would.

**capnfuffy** · 03-24-2006, 01:15 PM

can you explain what the 'apply debranded intro screen' actually does please

and does anyone know of a place to download a bunch of custom fonts with pictures of them in action
thanks in advance

**Art** · 03-24-2006, 01:18 PM

Click on the link for custom boot intro in my sig, and there's a video of it to download
it's about 5Mb.

The "Sony Computer Entertainment" text is removed from the boot intro,
AND the wave effect is removed from the boot intro, AND the sound is changed
to an air wrench.

2.6 sux · 03-24-2006, 02:53 PM

works great tested on my 1.5 disabled the network update
1.5 for life

**Art** · 03-24-2006, 03:02 PM

Good to hear.
It might be still possible to update from UMD.
I'm not game to try.

I have completed V2 that can reverse changes.
Will post in the first post of this thread soon.

Josey Wales · 03-24-2006, 03:35 PM

So basically its FlashMod?

**capnfuffy** · 03-24-2006, 03:48 PM

Art: i see you have V2 in the first post now
are the defaults the only thing added in this release?
great app so far and keep the updates comming : )
non-devs like myself are very thankfull

**Art** · 03-24-2006, 03:53 PM

No it doesn't use Flashmod.
The only routine Flashmod uses that this program uses is an example from ps2dev.org.
That's the routine that actualy copies the source file to destination (flash0).
Other than that it is written from scratch.

**capnfuffy** · 03-24-2006, 03:56 PM

ok

my bad

**Ranmax09** · 03-24-2006, 03:58 PM

Can someone please post the Original Sony Font?

**Art** · 03-24-2006, 04:05 PM

Try the second version,
Goto "Install Custom Font"
Press circle instead of Cross.
