PSP Tool is a multi-purpose utility to application which can perform various general management functions on a PlayStation Portable console.

This includes:

– Backup and Restore the IdStorage of the PSP
– Check the IPL injected on the Memory Stick or a file located on the Memory Stick
– Check, Backup, Restore and change the battery EEPROM
– Connect various devices through a USB cable
– Create a checksum of the IPL injected on the Memory Stick or an IPL located on the Memory Stick
– Create a variety of different Magic Memory Sticks
– Erase the entire IPL space of the Memory Stick
– Extract the IPL injected on the Memory Stick to a file
– Format the Memory Stick
– Inject a variety of included IPLs or an IPL from a file to the Memory Stick

Changes:

– Added: Support for 2.71 SE and 1.50 running under Time Machine and check to disable running on 3.71.
– Fixed: RSOD when choosing ‘Test M33’ feature on a DC7 MMS created with this application (only occured on Fat).
– Fixed: Issue using SQUARE as part of the boot key when creating a Magic Memory Stick.
– Fixed: Issue which could arise when creating more than one Magic Memory Stick in a single session.
– Other: Other Memory Sticks can now be formatted by first clicking on the format item in the menu and before answering yes to the questions insert the second Memory Stick.
– Other: To reduce the risk of a BSOD when installing or running a firmware from a Magic Memory Stick the registry of a 1.50 system is now copied instead of the registry of the current system (to use the current systems registry files hold the L trigger while the Magic Memory Stick is being created.)
– Other: Implemented a check for modules which are known to cause issues with PSP Tool. If any of these modules are found a message is first shown with the modules which need to be disabled and then the PSP performs a reboot. To disable this check hold the R trigger while loading the game.
– Updated: Now uses VLF library 1.0 by moonlight.
– Updated: Updated the information shown in the System Information panels.

Pickle released GLQuake for the Wiz, it’s a Quake engine using nanoGL wrapper.

Quote:

This is a work in progress. It may run differently depending on the opengl-es library present on your wiz.
This release is intended for demonstration purposes only.

How its works:
Tyr-glwuake is a full opengl quake engine. It uses a shared library called libnanoGL.so to emulate the extra opengl functions. For the wiz an additional library libwizGLES is needed by libopengles_lite.so.

Issues:
nanoGL(maybe the opengles driver?) sometimes hard locks. Just reboot and retry.
Missing textures
Lots of flicker
Sound doesn’t work

Squidge released his Vectrex emulator for the Wiz.

Quote:

So, here”s Vectrex”s Minestorm for the Wiz instead. At least it proves that there was never a problem with my sound routines.

NOTE: As this is mainly a vertical game, it requires the kernel to support FBIO_RGB_CONTROL, FBIO_DEVICE_ENABLE and FBIO_LCD_CHANGE_CONTROL. If yours does not, then you”ll only have the 320×240 (Horizontal) mode available, as it uses the hardware rather than software for rotation.

You can switch between 320×240 and 240×320 modes using the shoulder buttons (So people who prefer horizontal mode, or don”t have the above functions in there kernel, can still play the game).

Changes:
