Better Amphetamine Plugin updated to v3, some minor fixes
Today has been a slow for releases, but since the Vita scene caught fire it would be an abnormal day if there was not one release at all. That said, developer BeatPlay over on our own /talk/ forums has popped up and released version 3 of his Amphetamine plugin.
What is Better Amphetamine Plugin?
As I mentioned before, Better Amphetamine Plugin is the work of wololo forums user BeatPlay and is a fork of the reworked Amphetamine plugin by Rinnegatamante which itself was a fork of TheFloW’s original plugin. What the original plugin was meant to do was allow you to overclock the CPU of your Vita, but now with Henkaku R6 you can also slightly overclock your GPU to allow for better performance in games. Better Amphetamine Plugin also boasts more stabilityTM than the others meaning it is approved by both Sony and Nintendo.
Changelog for Better Amphetamine Plugin v3
-made overclocking more precise
-deactivated inital auto overclock
Instructions for using Better Amphetamine Plugin
- Copy amphetamine.suprx to the ux0:/plugins/ folder
- Create a game.txt inside the same folder
- Inside that file put this line: ux0:/plugins/amphetamine.suprx 1 and save.
- When inside a dumped game, press SELECT for a few seconds to bring up the overclocking menu.
This release also comes with a warning:
I wanted to implement FPS counting, but the code is unstable so whatever you do DO NOT HOLD DOWN START! Couldnt delete it, because i didnt have time to recompile and reupload!
Download Better Amphetamine Plugin
To download Better Amphetamine Plugin all you need to do is go to the thread in the /talk/ forums and download the precompiled version. As usual if you’re a lazy bum, here is the direct link so you don’t have to overwork yourself. Don’t forget to give BeatPlay any feedback you might find relevant!
Cool
The tutorial has a flaw. The downloaded archive is amphetamin.suprx so the text file must say ux0:/plugins/amphetamin.suprx 1 not ux0:/plugins/amphetamin(E).suprx 1
No archive and source code in that Google Drive repo
idk what you saying man, amphetamin day1 could be used to overclock GPU already
*original one
i guess i’m going to download the source and replace SELECT with L+R+SELECT because it’s annoying in Gundam Breaker 3
you could also make it 5 seconds longer or something, i dont know how long you have to press it in gundam breaker 3?
He’s probably referring to when holding select it also opens a chat window with keyboard, its not a huge deal just set your GPU press select then press it again to back out of the screen, but I could see it annoying me on the right day.
“Better Amphetamine Plugin also boasts more stability™ than the others meaning it is approved by both Sony and Nintendo.” Cue explosive flourish in random current rap song to symbolize effectiveness of one’s concise and apropos insulting statement.
WTH WOLOLO DO YOU EVEN KNOW ABOUT UPDATE 4.00 :/ like seriously keep tabs on this ***
will this work on ps tv?
I cant seem to get it to work on mine and I feel I am following the instructions correctly.
i want to go and hold START now.
I updated my plugin to v3.1 which fixes various bugs, the warning was also removed so this article is a little outdate (even if it is the newest on Wololo)
where i can find the new vertion
i test this plugin and it is not working
the description is wrong
I updated the file in the GDrive link and moved the repo to GitHub! 😀 Just check my /Talk thread sometimes and look for updates!
Update to V3.1
WoW. And I mean that. I will not use any version of this plugin until the dev removes the start button issue or fixes it. the dev said :I wanted to implement FPS counting, but the code is unstable so whatever you do DO NOT HOLD DOWN START! Couldnt delete it, because i didnt have time to recompile and reupload!
THen why was a RELEASE made…
Don’t release with a change log like that, please wait to release until you cannot determine any issues that may arise and then ask for help from others before you release a technically broken plugin .
Im holding select and nothing comes up
well this is embarsing, but can anyone make psp iso loader for vita 3.60. i hope total noob back!
This plugin only works for me on one game (Virtua tennis 4). with other dumped games I have I keep pressed select button but the plugin menu doesn’t even show up.
