Another homebrew shell program designed for the PlayStation Portable courtesy of designer mov. Flux - Beta 1 packs a lot of standard features found in similar applications and features a very clean cut look for an initial release.
Despite the program being in its beta stage, the interface and controls look very sleek and functions pretty well with all its various features. Speaking of which, here's a list of all the features that Flux - Beta 1 supports so far:
- Configurable via config files (flux.cfg, ext.cfg, skin.cfg), comments supported (prefix with #)
-- flux.cfg (set skin & custom paths for game, music & pics dirs)
-- ext.cfg (set file associations)
-- skin.cfg (font, etc. colours)
- Run EBOOTs (obviously)
- Open file with application based on extension (eg. txt files with BookR)
- Skinnable (png: menu icons, background, battery, usb)
- File browser (doesn't support file manipulation... yet)
- Alter CPU speed (222/266/333)
- Time, date, cpu speed, FW ver. displayed
- Battery status icon (alternates between battery & plug when on A/C & <100% batt)
- Enable/disable USB mass storage (icon displayed when enabled)
- Launch ISOs from file browser (no-UMD not supported at all, for now)
- Image viewer (jpeg & png at <= 1024x1024)
- Return to Flux only after starting app/game from Flux (via autoboot PRX)
- Optionally autoboot Flux when starting PSP by holding left trigger
- Launch Sony browser
The developer mentioned that the current build still has a couple of bugs which will need fixing in future updates. One of these include Flux locking up when swapping an inserted UMD instead of using the original one. Also, please note that Flux has been tested on custom firmware 3.80 M33-5 and may have issues with other CFW versions.
Don't forget to check out the documentation included with the app on detailed instructions on how to install it onto your handheld. You can also visit QJ.NET's PSP Development forum on the different controls and the developer's plans for future updates to be included in the later versions of Flux.
