iR Shell v3.7
Developer StoneCut dropped us a line earlier to announce that the latest build for the iR Shell homebrew is primed and ready for use. iR Shell version 3.7’s biggest feature is its support for the Team M33’s Custom Firmware 3.71 on the PSP Phat. It also carries several other new changes since version 3.62:
- Added support for M33 3.71 CFW for PSP Phat.
- Screen redirection via Tyranid‘s remotejoy. UMD Game compatibility has also been enhanced and save/load dialog boxes will no longer crash. Thanks to Tyranid for making this possible.
- 2 Player PSOne games via usbhostfs/nethostfs keypad direction using 2 PC joysticks/keyboard. Screen redirection via remotejoy is also supported for PSone games.
- Support for M33 popsloader when iR Shell running under M33 3.52 CFW. Only the latest version popsloader is supported (that is, the one for pops from 3.00 to 3.52). All other previous versions of popsloader won’t work with iR Shell. If you’re running iR Shell under M33 3.71, the “POP Version” setting in iR Configurator is ignored. This is due to popsloader currently doesn’t work with M33 3.71 due to changing NIDs by Sony.
- Support for M33 UMD Video ISO feature under iR Shell File Browser. This will also work with USBHostFS & NETHostFS. Again, for legally owned backups only.
- The number of iR Shell EBOOTs for various firmwares have been consolidated into just 2. One for firmware 1.5, and the other for firmware 2.x/3.x. This should make it earier for users.
- A new autoboot seplugin is introduced to replace the old “irsfw30x.prx”. This plugin will work under all firmware versions, including 3.71.
In case you’re wondering, the PSX 2 Player Adhoc that StoneCut and AhMan demonstrated before via video won’t be included in this release. The devs explained that it was still in the Alpha phase of development, and hence was still unstable. Users – especially first-timers – are advised to read through iR Shell 3.7’s User’s guide and FAQ. Both can be found in the file bundle.
Also be sure you download the other tools that StoneCut included – you’ll need them to make the most of the application. You may also want to visit StoneCut’s release thread over at the QJ.NET forums to get the iR Shell Skin Pack 1, and to say hello to the devs. Enjoy the downloads!
Kudos to Hatter for tipping us off regarding this release!
