SEPlugins Time Machine
======================

Since 5.00 M33 the format for plugins has changed, now a 0 or a 1
is written at the end of the plugin entry in one of the .txt files.
This has stopped compatibility of plugins when running a pre-5.00 M33
firmware in Time Machine. This app, SEPlugins Time Machine will allow you
to change the .txt file in the SEPLUGINS folder before and after running
Time Machine, which will allow pre-5.00 M33 firmwares to recognize plugins
in the Recovery Menu, and allow them to be loaded while in Time Machine.


Installation:
-------------
1) Copy SEPluginsTM to PSP/GAME/
2) Inside SEPluginsTM you will have 2 folders:
	
• 500M33
	
• OLDM33
   Add game.txt/vsh.txt/pops.txt/game150.txt to each folder:
     a) Put your current 5.00 M33-X .txt plugin files into 500M33 folder.
     b) Put your pre-5.00 M33 .txt plugin files into OLDM33 folder.
   Note: Leave your actual plugins inside the SEPLUGINS folder.
	
This App only copies the .txt files into the SEPLUGINS folder.
	
( game.txt / vsh.txt / pops.txt / game150.txt )
3) Done.


First Time Use:
---------------
When you first use SEPlugins Time Machine, copy your pre-5.00 M33-X .txt
plugin files. Then exit and run Time Machine, enter the Recovery Menu
of your desired firmware and enable the plugins that you would like to use.
Exit the Recovery Menu, you should then run SEPlugins Time Machine again
and choose the option to "Backup conf.bin". This will allow you to not
have to enter the Recovery Menu everytime you startup Time Machine. conf.bin
can/will be copied with your pre-5.00 M33-x .txt plugin files next time you
use this app to do so.


How It Works:
-------------
Everytime you want to use Time Machine to load an older firmware, Use
SEPlugins Time Machine before running Time Machine to change your .txt
plugin files to work with pre-5.00 M33 firmware. You can load the app
again before switching back to NAND firmware, and copy back your
5.00 M33-X plugins.


Tested to work on:
5.00 M33-6 / 3.40 OE-A / 1.50

For some reason, I thought maybe dax found a way to mimic the the time machine's 1.5  kernel through a plugin, but I was waaaay off,...
