Half Byte Loader R94
After a few days of work, here’s a new release of Half Byte loader. It has increased stability and slightly improves compatibility. Games that are reported to work better include: Doom, Snes9xTYL 0.4.2, and ScummVM 1.1.1.
Below are the details:
Changes
- Improved Compatibility For Static ELF Loading (thanks JJS!)
- Fixed issue 269 (Doom crash on exit)
- Added override_sceCtrlPeekBufferPositive as a parameter to hbl_config..txt. When set to 0, speed in some Emulators such as daedalus should work faster, but this increases the risks of crashes (a lot). Honestly I’ve never seen this feature work on a psp go, so don’t expect too much. But this will allow people who want to experiment to do it without recompiling.
This revision has been tested and confirmed to work with Wagic 0.12, T.O.M.E 2.3.5 (patched), CSPSP 1.56, Daedalus, Picodrive, Gpsp (kai), FCEUltra, ScummVM 1.0, Doom 1.4, and ZX81’s Stella 2600.
Enjoy 🙂
PS: We are aware that some compatibility has been apparently lost in some rare cases between R85 and recent revisions. We are hard at work to get your favorite games to work with HBL!
ive looked around and it says to use
Hook scePowerIsLowBattery() to always return 0
But i have no clue where to put it x.x
i’ve been wondering about that too, can someone let us know how to do that
Great mighty wololord
Well i want full battery to fool SNES9x_TYL. Also why would u want DSonPSP even on CFW the FPS is so low x_x
idk and without a stylus system it kinda sucks. but yeah i love TYL but cant save so x.x please tell us how to edit it so the battery shows full
Hmm Hook scePowerIsLowBattery() , have you tried putting that in config.ini
how would i do that? i looked at it and dont know the code x.x
actually nvm, it cant be a config.txt parameter cause of the () lol. it must be some code to put when u compile it or something.
i dont know how to compile. could someone please do it and email me? eternalfiregod@gmail.com
I dunno either, just be patient and hope they’ll implement the fix in the next release.
x.x i wanna play super metroid though lol. i saw a way to fix but i have no clue how to do it http://www.psp-programming.com/forums/index.php/topic,4841.0.html not sure if we’re allowed to post links of not just delete my post please ^^
icheat r3 beta 2 is not working, any help?
well not even sure if thats legal, hex editing someone’s homebrew without their permission. So even if it gets done it probably wont be able to be spreadable among the community.
oh =( damn well right now trying to open the svn files in the libs directory. no clue how to use this program but still XD
Yeah its tricky stuff for the non hacker, good luck 😉
@-@ i just wanna play super metroid on my psp since my controlers were lost v.v
hi wololo, it seems this version does not work well with wagic, at least for me.
The R94 can’t run the pspkvm,can it.?
Wololo, you could create a universal hen for firmware 6.xx
Just wanted to say that the PicoDrive is slow on my psp, I wonder what do I leave it faster?
Man, i wanna get Daedalus work on HBL rev 94!
I have one PSP Phat (dont know wich model know) with OFW 6.20.
I tried Salv-e’s releases but they dont work.
Great work guys, it starts so fast, and i can play duke3D now, without your HomeBrew loader my work cannot be continued.
@ Joshet: I almost cried when I could play KOF in my psp.Thanks for the info of the emu.
@wololo: having played the neo geo emu working on HBL rev 94, I started to think why this emu works with sound and no frameskip and the ones of snes are very slow and you have to mess up in the settings menu to make the roms “work”. Is it more difficult to emulate snes than neo geo, or is it that snes is a more powerful console (kidding) which may explain why is so difficult to emu its games?
Thanks wololo for this HBL!!!!
fixed version of r94 for snestyl is here http://advancedpsp.tk/foro_es/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=456&sid=37d770290192583567f288ab6316bf6a&start=1040 but i think wololo and m0skit0 will put it in the next version of HBL
Oh and a suggestion for the w/ menu. Customisable background music ,backgrounds ,and maybe some cool themes ^^
@Pako … yes and not only the neo geo, also CPS1 and CPS2 … i almost cry to jajajajaja … and now am testing news stuff … hope get something cool … peace … XD
another thing … snes can be emulated at full speed … but you have to mix to diferents emus .. fisrt SnesX9 Tyl and the second Snes9X Euphoria .. XD
Hey Joshet could you tell me which are those emulators of cps1 and cps2? and which rev 0f the un0ficcial gpsp kai w0rks in this new HBL because in this new rev 0f HBL the un0ficcial gpsp kai 3.2 test 2 when y0u finish 0f playing and and y0u press the 0pti0n “exit” atomatically it crash ( se cuelga o se friza).
PD: i have a psp 3000 6.20
@CAPORD this are the emulators …. XD
CPS1 v2.2.1a Adhoc CF3.71-M33
CPS2 v2.2.1a Adhoc CF3.71-M33
NeoGeo (MVSPSP) v2.2.1a Adhoc
all of them in: HBL r94
Peace
why does everybody ignores daedalus questions?
even in the forums, they are just braggin “oh i can run n64 very well”
can someone just post a link to the emulator?
or just tell us wicth version works?
Thx.
Thanks dude¡¡.
@Ismael
Hbl cant run Daedalusx64 and if it does its unplayable
@HBL my a** HBL cant run Daedalusx64 but this l0ader can run the Daedalus, these are diferent emulators but the daedalus is actually outdated becuase its last release was in around 2007 but y0u can run it in HBL.
@CAPORD Actually, i can confirm that one version of Daedalusx64 does work. It is Beta 1, which does support gameplay of Goldeneye and many others that R14 doesnt.
Snes9xTYL 0.4.2 & Picodrive wont save my games what am I doing wrong?
mvspsp emu is very slow working on my psp (psp slim 3004 6.20 hbl r97) which version do you use? :/
