Vsh Resource Manager changelog

It looks like the homebrew community is going to lose another developer for some time - to school. Well, it's not a bad thing and it's good to have priorities. To make up for another absence, becus25 has released an upgraded version of Vsh Resource Manager, or Vrm, and made the source code public.

Vsh Resource Manager is basically a theme flashing application that sports custom firmware support (OE, M33, and Wildc*rd). For version 1.0, becus25 worked some kinks out and added other functions into the app. Here's the complete list from the dev's release thread:

Small bug fix.
When you flash a file, vrm will show the size of it.
If you haven't put the pngs files on his root, the program won't start.
On main menu vrm will show the folder root selected.
Support for exit of the application pressing L+R+START . With this you can exit of the application of any part.

We need not remind you that messing with your flash0 always has that risk of bricking (here's to hoping you have an extra battery). Anyway, enjoy.

Theme-flashing application Vsh Resource Manager or Vrm has just been updated by owner becus25 to version 0.5 and several new additions and improvements have been implemented. Since the last version, this program has already been made compatible with OE, M33, and WildCard custom firmwares. The following changelog was provided by becus25 himself:

• The Selection folder now is more beautiful.
• You can do backups of your flash0 rcos that can flash with the flasher.
• Support for return to the main menu when you are on a submenu using the circle button.
• Added a new screen for view the status of the rcos flashed.
• When you have bad flashed a rco, the screen will show:[rco name] -> [status]; where status is "corrupted"
• Added four rcos more that are [opening_plugin, music_main_plugin, video_main_plugin, and video_plugin_videotoolbar .rco]
• Changed the color of the menu text, now you can see it better

Take note that Vsh Resource Manager v0.5 doesn't come with a Readme.txt file so don't proceed with installation of you are not sure with what you are doing. It would be wise to consul our forum link below and discuss this program with other users to avoid any problems.

PSP homebrew coder becus25 is back and has just released the newest version of Vsh Resource Manager. It's now on version 0.2 and its now compatible with OE, M33, and Wildcard custom firmware.

In case you missed the first release, Vsh Resource Manager is a theme flashing app. As promised, the dev has included support for custom firmwares, though becus25 mentioned that he has only tested the application on 3.40 OE. Here are the additions for version 0.2:

Support custom firmware OE/m33/Wildcard

• On the OE part you can (of moment) select six folders that are

ms0:/vrm/a
''/b
''/c
''/d
''/e
''/f

• Now you can flash more of 5 rcos . Now you can flash 11 rcos and the gameboot that are :

topmenu_plugin, gameboot.pmf , photo_plugin, music_plugin, game_plugin, savedata_plugin, savedata_utility, sysconf_plugin, system_plugin, system_plugin_bg ,system_plugin_fg and impose_plugin.rco.

The dev shares credit with TrAnK (author of pic1.png) and FZero (author of icon0.png), whose files he included in the project. Anyway, check out the readme (notas ; notes.txt) that comes with download. And just in case you've unsure of what you're doing, skip over to the QJ forums link below so you can discuss your questions with becus25 himself or other members.

It seems Becus25 isn't completely done with the homebrew scene yet! Over on our forums, we found out that Becus25 has released another piece of homebrew for users to try out for their PSPs, called Vsh Resource Manager v0.10a.

Vsh Resource Manager is a theme flashing application for your PSP. According to Becus25, it uses the virtual keyboard (or OSK) found in the folder of the themes to work. Becus25 also states that the Vsh Resource Manager only works perfectly on FW 1.50, though if you're tech-savvy enough, you can try updating his work to work in tandem with OE or M33 firmwares.

Becus25 also notes that he won't be having a lot of time to code for the homebrew scene in the next few weeks, so he plans on releasing the code to the public eventually. In the meantime, those who want to try patching this application may want to check the readme first before doing so. That being said, feel free to download the app and see how it works for you.
