Old-school homebrew apps don’t get any more ancient than CrazyC‘s DOSBox application for the PlayStation Portable. The latest version of this DOS emulator program fits in some bugfixes from the previous version of the app, as well as added a more flexible memory allocation to its accompanying conf file.
Other updates in version 0.71 Build 29.01.2008 include:
- Fixed most of the bugs that I could find in the 3.x build of DOSbox (at least with the fat psp).
- Now you should be able to exit and set any about of memory in the conf file as long as it can be allocated with malloc.
- With a pair of prx’s it has the same functionality as the 1.5 build. Neither prx is necessary to run the program.
This new build released by the developer was confirmed to work for CFW 3.xx, including the newly released 3.80 M33 by Dark AleX. CrazyC has also added some notes regarding the different files included when installing DOSBox on your PSP:
- EBOOT.PBP the main binary
- exception.prx if this prx is present, crash dumps will be displayed
- fixup.prx if the prx if present, the ME region will be added to the code cache.
- dosbox.patch.gz the patch
