For fat PSP and slim.
This. Is. Awesome.

I've never heard of M33 before, I take it that's completely different to the OA-E or whatever it is I've been using?

Actually, M33 is Dark_Alex.
I didn't believe it at first, but D_A confirmed it.
So yeah, it's the same thing, but with more features. If you're still on 3.40OE, you should upgrade. There is absolutely no reason to be staying on it. With M33, you get the no UMD support, and a bunch of cool new plugins as well. If you're not too sure about 3.71 M33 then just upgrade to 3.52 m33-4. I'm not going to upgrade to the 3.71 version yet until they get the 1.5 kernel working. Without that, most homebrew won't work. =/

3.71 released and yet the same problem with the PSP Slim/lite. you need a fat psp + pandoras battery + magic memory stick. and I hear this is the last version DA releases  so if you only have a psp lite, and no friends that have hacked their old psp, you are basically screwed for that. Ah well, I guess i'll just buy my games. but I really wanted to play super nintendo on there 

hahaha, wow. so dark_alex was m33. so i guess he was pretty much the only guy who did anything and the entire psp modding community was built around him.

Can't you just get Lumines?

Also all the M33 versions say "upgrade from M33 v x.xx only" so how do I switch from OE-A to M33?

nah cant just get lumines you need a modded fat psp that can run homebrew inorder to mod the slim

Hey, just a quick query regarding PSP piracy, I have an ISO that came in .001, .002, .003 etc all the way up to like 15 or 20 or something. How would I join them together? If you can't post it in the topic, could someone PM me?

If they are archives you can open up .001 with WinRAR, and extract it. WinRAR should automatically detect the other numbers and combine everything to make one ISO file.

I broke down and ordered Lumines yesterday, so I'll soon be joining your insiduous ranks!  One of the first things I want to do is rip my PSX games and get them going on the PSP, because that seems to be one of the easier things to do.  I know that there are good tutorials posted in this topic at various points, but could somebody give me a single PSP hacking site that is a good one-stop for all of the information that I need?

Usb cables are in heaps of shit, like cameras and what not, cause thats where I got mine lol... I'm not poor.. shut up lol.

Buy a game. You'll need one in the tray to play homebrew anyway, so you ight as well use the time between now and hacked to play somethin' neat.
