Because there is a god: Dark_AleX’s 3.03 OE-A released
We here at QJ like the fact that if you phonetically pronounced Dark_AleX’s latest custom firmware (OE-A), you end up saying “Oh yeah!” and quite aptly so. Oh yeah, indeed, and just as promised, Dark_AleX is once again coded into the annals of PSP homebrew history. He’s now released his latest hack: 3.03 OE-A (Open Edition Revision A).
The major features of this release is that it’s built for FW 3.03 (no, duh) and that PSX ISO compression is now supported. You’d also be able to use PSX game manuals with the document.dat utility. Here’s the full changelog for 3.03 OE-A:
- Change from firmware 3.02 to 3.03
- Added support for compression in psx isos (look at popstation documentation for more details)
- Added support for decrypted document.dat (psx games manual) (look at docmaker documentation for more details)
- Fixed a bug regarding free region: a stupid bug caused it not to work at all. Now it should work, although it has not been tested due to lack of umd’s of different regions between the testers and me
- Some generic bug fixes in the code
- Redded the sdk
As with other Dark_AleX custom firmware releases, 3.03 OE-A is installed in the same way. For the newbies, that leaves you with three options: you can either check our ongoing coverage on Dark_Alex-related releases, or you can simply take a look at the readme file included in the archive.
UPDATE: nilzxx has just made this video which shows him sucessfully installing 3.03 OE-A on his PSP. So for all the doubters out there, doubt no more. This thing works. Thank you, nilzxx!
