PopsLoader for Custom Firmware 5.00 M33-2 Released

I know you’ve been anxiously waiting… Freshly compiled just for you… Snap, crackle, Dark_AleX’s PopsLoader — the dopest PSX/PSOne emulator for custom firmware 5.00 M33-2.

System requirements, PopsLoader changes, installation and upgrading, downloads, etc… — all available after this break.

Requirements:

• 5.00 M33-2.

PopsLoader changes:

• Works on 5.00.
• Added 3.80, 3.90 and 4.01.

Upgrading from an older version of PopsLoader:

• Copy seplugins to the memory stick root folder replacing files.
• Dump firmware 4.01 (choose decrypt all option in PSARDumper) and copy impose.prx to /seplugins/popsloader/ with that name (impose.prx, without numbers).

Install PopsLoader from scratch:

• Copy seplugins to the memory stick root folder replacing files.
• Dump the desired firmware to extract the files needed (choose decrypt all option in PSARDumper).
• These are the required files for each firmware:
  • 3.02-3.03: /kd/pops.prx, /kd/popsman.prx, /kd/meaudio.prx, /vsh/module/pafmini.prx
  • 3.10-3.30: /kd/pops.prx, /kd/popsman.prx, /vsh/module/pafmini.prx
  • 3.40-4.01: /kd/pops.prx, /kd/popsman.prx, /vsh/module/pafmini.prx, /vsh/module/libpspvmc.prx
• Copy the files to /seplugins/popsloader with firmware version as suffix (e.g. popsman.prx -> popsman380.prx)
• Additionally, no matter which pops you want to run, you have to get impose.prx from 4.01 and copy it to /seplugins/popsloader/ with the name impose.prx (no suffix).
