With the release of 2.01, 2.5, and 2.6 many gamers became aware, many after they purchased their new PSP, that they would be unable to play homebrew on their new handheld. This possibly could have be avoided by the ability to check the firmware before you buy.
However, Fanjita has been making excellent progress with version 2.0 PSP's , in addition to the newer PSP versions. Today he has released a update to his exploit that now also "allows you to run up to 4 other GTA-ready homebrew applications, using 4 spare save-slots" with the German censored (16+) version of Grand Theft Auto. He also stated that "this is a test of the general-purpose GTA loader that will be used as the basis for running the EBOOT loader on v2.01+" If you are a developer, now is a better time then any to check out Fanjita's Developer Package for the GTA Exploit.
To install:
* Unzip the contents of this package into the /psp/savedata folder on your memory stick. Note that if you have an existing savegame that uses slots 3,4,5,6 or 7, then this will be overwritten by the Tetris savegame. You can see which slots you are using by the folder names - ULES00182SX : X is the slot number.
To use:
* Start up GTA as normal. When it has loaded, select "Load Game", select the Tetris savegame and confirm the load as normal. After a short delay, the Tetris game should start.
* To quit the game, you will need to hold your power button for 10 seconds. The HOME button doesn't work, this is a known problem.
Installing other homebrew:
This package comes with 5 homebrew savegame slots. You can use these to choose between your 5 favourite GTA-ready homebrew applications. To copy a GTA homebrew into place:
* Decide which slot you want to use. Tetris uses slot 5 by default.
* Copy the "tetris.bin" file from your new GTA homebrew into the ULES00182SX folder - where 'X' is the slot number you have chosen.
* Optionally, copy an ICON0.PNG (for the game icon) and a PIC1.PNG (for the larger game picture, seen in the savegame manager) into the folder, to make it easier to remember. You need to follow the format of the existing PNGs in the folder.
Note - this version only works with the German censored (16+) version of Grand Theft Auto.
