Endless Paradigm

Quote:And here it is! Auraomega has unveiled Project4 Open Beta numéro deux. Please read our previous Project4 news coverage should you find yourself asking the question, “what’s the dealio, yo?”

Auraomega notes, “the code has not changed for installing/un-installing, so if there was an underlying bug, it’s going to remain there.” How to install / uninstall and other important tidbits in README.txt.

What’s new?

Removed:

    * e-Book reader and the HEX reader.
    * pspdebug style font.

Added:

    * PSX loading
    * Screenshot function
    * Menu thread giving some background functions in Project4.
    * New menu when launching games, gives the ability to select directly what kernel you want to load in.
    * Added a function to load games in the background, although I’ve found none that work. Tagged as experimental.
    * sysDump function which is called upon a BSoD, used to check system variables.

Changed:

    * Added intraFont
    * The menu is now more advanced, you can select the location on screen icons go, and which folder they open when selected.
    * Folders with a . in them can now be opened.
    * Folders with lots of files in can now be browsed easier, instead of pressing select and up/down, just move around in the folder and the new algorithm will determine when you have run off the screen and act accordingly.
    * Universal Installer modules have been tweaked slightly so they no longer cause issues with some offical Sony savegame loading.

Button changes:

    I found the buttons held no consistency whatsoever, so I decided to re-work the entire controls for Project4, these below show what all buttons do now:

    * Main Menu - Right shoulder button
    * File Browser - Left shoulder button
    * Extra Menu - Select
    * Accept - Cross
    * Cancel - Circle

In anticipation of replacing the XMB with Project4, I strongly recommend you create yourself a pandora battery with magic memory stick. Project4 is beta software — unforeseen problems may occur. Stay alert, stay safe.

Heres some screenshots of this new release:

sweet...havent tried this but i might do a multi IPL on my MMS and have a look at some point

hmm sounds interesting

new one finally out :P  he's hard working.  I'll try it someday when it's safer.

Hmm, there seems to be a general lack of uptake with this?  Has anyone tried it?
If so, how is it?

HOW TO INSTALL:
1: make sure the eboot & prx's are in:
ms0:psp/game/Project4
2: make sure you've made room for the installer by deleting Flash0:/Dic (you don't need it)
3: Use Filer (1.5 kernel) to backup flash0 and flash1
4: WAIT! The LED won`t flash much and successful installs have taken me 15-20 min
5: If you get a message saying failed writing:
enter recovery mode, enable usb,  copy filer's eboot to psp/game/recovery,  set kernel to 1.5, run program at recovery,  and restore flash
6: Rinse, repeat

It's just like a filemanager
All of the GAMES,ISO,MUSIC,PHOTO have to choose a file name open it manually by pressing L button then selecting.

Thanks :)

Any advantages (currently; of course, it'll probably get better later on) over the XMB / iR Shell ?
