What loader are you using?

Have you tried using DaxISO on it?

If you tell me what size it is to start off with, and what you've done in a bit more detail, im sure i, or someone else here should be able to help.

btw, i've never seen a rip-kit for it, but then again i've never realy looked.

it hasnt worked until the recent relase of PSP Device Hook Sample Launcher v0.40 FULL.

it is imo an AMAZING jump in what can be played and what cant... splinter cell included, however not under 1gig.

it needs the prx files from street riders, or i guess those same prx files from another game.

list of games that work under device hook .40

QUOTE

* Breath Of Fire 3 (use PGS release, with Save working)
* Bust-A-Move Ghost/Deluxe (EUR, USA- works now without the patch. Press START to quicky bypass the intro hang)
* Capcom Collection (WiFi works- with 1.5 PRX files renamed)
* Exit (USA, works now without the patch)
* EyeShield 21 Portable
* Field Commander (WiFi Infrastucture works)
* FIFA Street 2
* FIFA World Cup 06 (works with StarWars BattleFront 2 PRX files)
* Fight Night (remove update, and delete the .pad file OR compress to CSO format via CiSO v1.00- you can leave it as .cso too, no need to rename back to .iso)
* Gottlieb Pinball Classics
* Gradius Portable (now works without the patch)
* GTA: LCS (WiFi Multi-Player works- no errors now from iSO and UMD- remember you're not using your flash1 setting, so you'll have to make a new connection)

* Lemmings (EUR)
* Lord of The Rings Tactics (EUR)
* Midway Arcade Treasures

* World Championship Poker 2 (USA, WiFi and Save working)
* Worms: Open Warfare
* WWE Smackdown! Vs Raw (EUR, USA working via UMD- press START to quicky bypass where it hangs)

im pretty sure the list is still growing, and id produce a link to DL, but its probably best i dont, as i dont want to trek in muddy waters on xbox-scene.

good luck though.

I didnt want to mention DH, but, yep, it works under DH, and as already said theres no 1GB rip, but one thing people are looking into is compressing the audio files. Im sure if you give it a bit time, it will get done.

I can only see DH getting better and better, IMO the best thing about it is Wifi and Save working on almost everything.

ripkit available.. rips nothing to ruin the game... flipping sweet...
id post the rip, but i dont know how xbox-scene feels about links to that site.

how i got it to work:
prx files taken from battlefront, and renamed into all UPPERCASE, even the .PRX, as they are in cell.

ripped to files using UMDgen, replaced prx files, used rip kit to shrink it down to ~800MB, made ISO with VCDrom 3.6, devhook .041 on 333mhz mode, and rest of the settings as stated in readme.

mine froze there too.. you need prx files from street riders and battlefront.

dont ask where to get these files

edit: tutorial i wrote

QUOTE

extract all files from cell ISO
get prx files here
link removed

prx's all renamed UPPERCASE, even the .PRX just add them to the
PSP_GAME\USRDIR\SYSTEM\PSP_MODULES folder

use ripkit

use VCDromx 3.6 to build your ISO

load up Devhook .41 with these settings:

select CELL.iso or whatever you named it
UMD mount: ISO anydvd
UMD version 2.xx
firmware 2.5+2.00
CPU clock 333mhz
reboot XMB

!!! for some reason, the realtime cut scenes go really fast and its impossible to see whats going on. !!!

ok...

thanks to svtstang for help on the prx files, people at maxconsole for some other prx files, ps2nfo for posting alot of info and apps.

enjoy!
