Genesis UMD Launcher 2.6

ProjectPSP have released a new UMD Launcher for the PSP, Heres the full details:

Genesis UMD Loader 2.6 is used with what?

The goal of this Loader, similar to RunUMD, is to launch an ORIGINAL UMD 2.6 on all the other Firmware versions without making the necessary FW update to play, and thus keeping the possibility of playing back-ups and others' homebrew too on 1.5.

Small Tutorial:

J has tested my Loader (based on RunUMD) and J has been able to launch all the UMDs that require 2.6 on my PSP 1.5 of which include FIFA Street (stock), Generation Of Chaos (custom) and Key Of Heaven (stock).

NOTE: Install the Loader in PSP/GAME, and the file "X" has the root of the MS.

Attention: It may be that the folder "X" conflicts, and thus the Loader UMD 2.6 does not launch if you possess a back-up with a FiX which contains already an "X" folder. In this case there, the back-up will have priority over the UMD ORIGINAL inserted in the PSP drive (for the moment, only NARUTO poses this problem).

2 Solutions:

--> put this Loader on a 32MB MemoryStick delivered to the PSP. (32MB MS should be used it is usually insufficient to store a back-up on, so make use of it this way).

--> or then it will be necessary to modify the Loader to launch the "X" folder which will be named differently example "Y", "Z",etc...

Compatibility With PSP Games (J will try to update as much as possible):

Original UMDs tested WORKING:

- UMD FIFA STREET 2 EURO
- UMD KEY OF HEAVEN EURO
- UMD DEATH JR EURO
- UMD GENERATION OF CHAOS USA

Original UMDs tested NOT WORKING:

- UMD SPLINTER CELL ESSENTIAL EURO


Plays PSP back-up with FiX required:

After testing with my "X" folder:

- WORMS with FiX works and does not conflict (LEAVE my "X" folder for it).
- STREET FIGHTER ALPHA 3 USA does not launch, must put the "X" of the FiX in place of my "X" folder for it to work.
- NARUTO goes, but boot functionality on the ORIGINAL UMD 2.6 doesn't work (so NARUTO, that is to say boot UMD thus to erase file NARUTONP).
