Decided to release this to try help out anyone creating content in Flash for 2.7 users. Its an autoinstaller that will install your swf(s) onto the users PSP automatically in the location you choose and then create a bookmark in the browser for it.

PSP Flash Auto Installer v1.0 by Shallan 2/6/06

This program will allow you to distribute flash content (or indeed any browser content) that will autoinstall onto the users PSP. Simply put your file/files into the data folder and change the setup.ini accordingly. Below is an explanation of the setup.ini file, included in this package is my game xword as an example ( I used this as it MUST be installed in the correct place to work).

title=Xword -> Title displayed on the installer and also in the bookmarks
path=PSP/Xword/ -> Path to copy data to on the PSP must terminate in a /
start=PSPXword.swf -> the file to run when the bookmark is clicked

The only requirement is that the user has their PSP plugged in obviously and has at least one bookmark else the installer just quits.

This should hopefully stem the steady flow of "how do I install this" questions and also simplify bookmark setups.

Mac version should follow in a few days once I can get on a Mac to test it. Note this will work on most versions of Windows but it wont work on NT4.

Hopefully if its working well for everyone it will assist anyone entering the flash contest to properly ensure installation of their work

Enjoy!

Thats pretty sweet!

oh ok so this is only for 2.7 PSP's? well if it is that sucks balls

**Shallan** · 06-02-2006, 03:42 PM

Well no, this is a windows app that will install anything you tell it to onto the PSP. It will then create a link in the PSP browser pointing to that folder and a file that you can choose. So while it is most useful for flash developers to distribute their flash files it can also be used to distribute anything at all that can have a browser bookmark, ie html pages, javascript games, maybe even rss feeds at a guess I really havent tested it with everything.

Edit : Just noticed 2 things 1 ) Lol you registered to say that?!?! and 2) my timing of spotting that post was damn quick considering ive been playing MHF the past 4 hours or so hehe

**strelzj** · 06-02-2006, 04:02 PM

pretty cool

80266 · 06-03-2006, 02:00 PM

so this thing works on 1.5 psp's? using firedup browser?

**kozine** · 06-03-2006, 02:03 PM

Nope, only for firmwares 2.70 and up, due to the fact firmwares below 2.70 do not have flash installed in the sony browser.

UPDATE : Mac version now available for download at Mac Auto Flash Installer

I have packaged this as a .zip rather than a .sit to allow PC developers to add/remove files from the archive so they can still distibute their content for macs to install. PC owners DO NOT unpack this and repack expecting this to work again on a mac, windows will corrupt some data in the .osx file and the xtras folder and prevent it from running.

Mac users : Simply follow the same instructions from the PC version but run setup.osx rather than setup.exe and do not remove the xtras folder it is used to power the installer.
