mootjeuh has decided to write a library that will simplify all the functions of LPHM. They will be even easier than the old LPHMs’ ones!

So, here’s a list of what is already done:

initColors() | initiates all the LPHMv2 colors (white, green, black, …)
initButtons() | initiates all the buttons so you don’t have to keep calling “pad = Controls.read()” or pad:cross(), it’s just cross or x or circle or up…
initCursor(speed,cursor image path) | speaks for itself
initiate() | will load all the functions that start with “init”
cursor() | will show the a cursor with the specs from initCursor()
print(x,y,text,color) | will print “text” to the screen with the original XMB font, if there’s no color it will automatically print in black
f:init(font path,font size) | load a font
f:print(x,y,text,color) | will print “text” with the f:init() specs,if there’s no color it will automatically print in black
f:term() | unloads the font
load(file type,file path) | there are 10 different file types:
1: PBP
2: PSX
3: PRX
4: ELF
5: LUA
6: sound (eg: wav)
7: MP3
8: OGG
9: AA3
10: AAC

blit(x,y,image path) | speaks for itself
read(path) | will load the “path” file and show it’s content
assign(flash) | will assign a flash. eg: assign(2) will assign flash2:/
pause(seconds) | will freeze the homebrew for the number of seconds given
usb(device,mode) | will activate the usb with the specified device and mode, eg: usb(“ms0:”,true)
osk(title,input) | speaks for itself
encrypt(file path,new name) | since LPHMv2 can’t read encrypted scripts I’ve decided to make my own code encrypter
execute(file) | will execute the previously encrypted “file”
get.nick() | will search for the PSPs nickname and will return “nickname” as it’s nickname (I felt like making my own one :P)
browser(device,mode) | will show a browser that will explore “device” in the selected mode, there are two modes:
1: tile map
2: list
eg: browser(“flash0:”,2)

retrobits repacked the abstract shooter Noiz2sa with the intention to get it working on v5.xx FW.

The screenshot is provided from the iPhone version for illustration purpose.

retrobits wanted to play Laserix 2 again on his b5.00 M33 Slim, so he decided to update the port using the Pheonix Game Engine and added many new levels.

Laserix is a laser that should go through all diamonds on the grid. The only way to do it, is to use mirrors, in the right position and adjust them to define the right laser path.

PSP Installer has been updated! IT allows you to install various homebrew via a fancy interface. This application basically allows you to download and automatically install Games, Apps, Theme’s, Save Games, whatever goes into the PSP Folder

Changes:

+Added: Categories, now everything is split into 4 categories, Games, Applications, Theme’s and Savegames
=Fixed: If you choose a blank option on the browse page, it will initiate your wlan but then tell you it’s unable to download a blank application
=Unfixable: Deletion of Zip file’s. There’s a bug in PGELua that prevents zip files to be closed, so since there still classed as open and in use, they can’t be deleted.
EDIT:
=Fixed: When updating database, current database version text changed to latest database version text when it should have stayed at current database version text… it’s hard to explain.. anyway it’s fixed

Here is a new version of silmarilion’s music player GameMusicGear MX.

Changes:

+ add: New in_sap plugin based on ASAP engine by Piotr Fusik.
+ add: Scrolling text in playlist for large file names/titles.
+ add: Some gfx changes and new icon, specially in the config app.
+ add: Texture compression using libtxc_dxtn library by Roland Scheidegger and Franck Charlet to save some space: dxt1, dxt3 and dxt5 modes available.
+ add: New volume boost algorithm with +3, +6 and +9 dB amplification. You can change it pressing CROSS + ANALOG UP/DOWN. ** USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK **
+ add: Improved the in_psf plugin, several types of reverb and interpolation were added and should sound more like the real psx. If you find some heavy track you can try changing this settings.
+ add: Improved visual plugins!.
* fix: Increased heap size of in_gme.prx because some vgm files were not working, thanks to Marcus Vinícius for pointing that one.
* fix: Increased the size of the song info and picture in fullscreen visualizer.
* fix: Replaced a lot of global variables in the main app to improve performance and stability of the app.
* fix: Load from zip, rar, etc. is now working with psf, minipsf and vgz plugins. Except for some large rar files.
* fix: Real sleep mode is now working :).
– del: Removed fade support since i changed the sound boost algorithm.
