PRX Launcher changelog

vodkkaa has released a new application based off theketchupman's PRX Launcher v0.4. Called PRX Launcher Fix for 3.40 OE, the fix will let you to launch any homebrew using PRX Launcher v0.4 on your PSPs.

Here's the full list of features for the homebrew application:

• This eboot allows you to lauch any homebrew using prx laucher v0.4 by theketchupman
• PRX launcher looks for a specified homebrew to launch. However, some homebrew, such as emulators and apps that access flash, do not launch when using this. What this does is allow you to specify this EBOOT to prx launcher, which then launches your EBOOT.

The full list of instructions for installing and using the handy fix can be found on the included readme file. Feel free to check it out and see how it integrates with your PRX Launcher. Enjoy!

What is the PRX Launcher v0.4 for all 3.XX OE? It is Team XK's contribution to the homebrew community that is a plugin which can launch an eboot from an icon, that's what!

But unlike the previous releases, you will find that there have been some new stuff added or tweaked (duh, that's why it's a new version). So, in this file, there are 5 prx identified as (deep breath) HBx.prx (x=1 .. 5). Each HBx launch ms0:/PSP/SYSTEM/HBx/EBOOT.PBP.

theketchupman explains that it's been put in the System folder because you won't see the file in the Game menu on vsh. Now, for you to get it running, you'll have to rename the hbx into a plugin name, and then flash it to your PSP. If you think you need more of them prx, then hexedit the path of the HB to launch.

As for the important things you need to know, there are three:

• not capable of launching kxploit homebrew (you'll need to use 1.00 hb)
• no compatibility issues with SCEP
• some hb (like snesxstyl) may have problems -- but only a few

And then there are those danged bugs. He says that "It seems you can't launch any Eboot that uses/modifies the flash (liek PSPFiler for example); it's because we can't get this PRX to work in kernel mode under 3.40 OE..."

So, to sum it up, the PRX Launcher v0.4 is now working on 3.30 and 3.40 OE, and although it's only been tested on 3.40 OE, it should work nicely with 3.30 OE.
