im guessing you do not have the actual 2.71 dump in the devhook folder

us the ultamit installer from psp-hacking.com its easyer. if u do have the firmware set up already on the mem card, it sounds like u dont have the reboot.bin

I have had this problem many times before. Can't remember what it was, but it was something to do with the configuration. If you are SURE you have the full 2.71 firmware dump and all the other crap (as =A.O.D= said, get the ultimate package - do a google search for DevHook Full Download or something there are many full-packages to download), verify your settings....

This is what i use for pretty much every 2.00+ game.

UMD-MOUNT: ISO ANYUMD
UMD VERSION: 2.xx -> 2.00
BOOT SELECT: reboot XMB (i think this may be the one that stuffed me up).


All the other settings should be fine as their default, i think....


Oh... does anyone know where you can find details on what each setting actually means? And is it possible to run a DevHook'd game without a UMD in the drive? the ISO NOUMD option doesn't seem to work... or is it just my games?

Sorry to change subject... i'll start a new thread if i could be bothered.

Ill explain some of this to you and everyone else

Here are the settings and info on them for Devhook .46, Devhook .45 settings are a little different

UMD Select: Choose your ISO ( By choosing UMD you can play any 2.0+ UMD aswell)

FirmWare: Set to whatever firmware you are emulating, more than likely 2.71, and you need to have that specific firmware dump in order to emulate

CPU Clock: Set to 222mhz / 111mhz for normal speed ( This is the speed of the PSP Processor, if you set to 333mhz it will load games faster )

Boot Select: Always Set to Reboot XMB in order to emulate a higher firmware, if set to anything else it will not emulate a firmware

Flash Rom: Allows you to flash part of the Firmware dump your emulating to your onboard flash chip, by doing this some games will run faster and the XMB will respond quicker

Other:Allows you to set the UMD Version, you should always set it to no change if your emulating 2.71, only set to 2.xx -> 2.00 if your emulating 2.50

And about the no UMD question, asking that here is perfectly fine so no worries , and you can only play 1.50 and under games without a UMD at the moment, and still only if you set your firmware to 1.50 in the Devhook config, if you were to set that to ISO NoUMD while trying to emulate 2.71 no game would show up with or without a UMD in, Booster ( The creator of Devhook ) was working on NoUMD for emulated 2.0+ but no words from him since the whole Cease and Desist incident from Sony, so im sorry to say but I dont think there will be any Updates to Devhook from Booster, since Booster released the source code other Devs could try to continue his work but it would be very hard.

Hope this helped you and everyone, should clear some things up

I tried that ultimate installer, but alas, I am a Mac user and that kicks out a .exe file (the one PC compression macs don't seem to like). I will take a close look at my settings and try again. Thanks for the info everyone!!
