Hold+ v3.41 - Battery Saver Plugin

November 22nd, 2008, 11:57 Posted By: wraggster

News/release from Torch:

This is a simple plugin I made a long time ago for my personal use. I just found the source code while going through some old stuff on my computer, so I thought I'd clean up the code a bit and release the plugin.

I realize that there are other plugins that feature similar functionality but I wrote my own because I wanted to be sure its coded optimally, as there are a few careless ways in which these functions can be improperly used (the point of this after all is to conserve battery life).

It does the following when the Hold switch is enabled:
* Switches off the LCD backlight.
* Switches off the actual LCD screen.
(This is important because the backlight and actual screen are two different things. You can have an image being displayed on the screen while the backlight is switched off, such that you can see the image if you use a flashlight. You can also have the screen switched off while the backlight still illuminates the powered off screen.)
* Underclocks the CPU to 60MHz
(Sony has changed the clock speed functions such that only certain combinations of speeds work correctly. Simply trying to underclock to arbitary values will result in the CPU simply running at the stock speed. I have verified that Hold+ successfully underclocks to 60MHz.)
* The original screen brightness and clock speed are restored when the Hold switch is released.
* Prevents the PSP from going into suspend mode if you accidently push the power switch too far when turning off Hold mode.
* Allows complete operation of the PSP controls with the display turned off.
* Turns off LEDs in hold mode. LEDs are flashed once in 30 seconds so that the PSP is not mistaken to be powered off.
* While in hold mode, allows the use of Left, Right, LTrigger, RTrigger, Volume and Start buttons, if you hold the Select button first. Useful to skip songs, pause etc.

Usage:
Turn on the Hold switch to automatically disable the display and underclock the CPU. Turn off the Hold switch to return the CPU to normal speed and enable the display.

If you push the ANALOG UP button when turning on the Hold switch, it will only lock the keypad like normal hold mode. The display and CPU speed will not be changed, so that you can watch videos etc. with the keypad locked.

If you push the ANALOG UP button when turning off the Hold switch, the display will remain switched off and the CPU will remain underclocked, but you can operate the PSP. To return to normal, push the power switch to the suspend position, or just press the Screen button.

While the PSP is in hold mode, if you first hold down the Select button, you can use the following buttons: Left, Right, LTrigger, RTrigger, Vol+, Vol-, Start.

Installation:
You can install it in the seplugins folder, and make an entry in VSH.txt. Thus it will be active in the XMB. Its also possible to use it in games by adding it to GAME.txt, but some games may crash etc., if the CPU is underclocked to such a low value.

Optionally, its also possible to install it in your PSP's flash0 so that it will work without a Memory Stick. For this you can use FreePlay's "NewBTCFNedit" and enable it for VSH mode in the all the PSPBT?NF.bin files. Add it before vshmain.prx.

Advanced:
If you want to change the clock speed to your own values, you can use a hex editor to change them. The offsets in the file for v3.4 are
0xD48 - CPU
0xD4C - Bus (Should be half the CPU speed or less)

The values should be entered in hexadecimal. The default value for CPU is 3C (60 MHz in decimal) and the default value for Bus is 1E (30 MHz in decimal).

Note that simply using any arbitrary value will not work. You will have to test and see which values for CPU and Bus speed work.

Changelog v3.41
----------------------------------
Improved faulty Hold switch protection, as there were still some chances of a faulty Hold switch causing problems.

Changelog v3.4
----------------------------------
Fixed a problem caused by a faulty Hold switch in some PSPs. This made the CPU remain underclocked even after turning off the Hold switch.

The problem is the Hold switch doesn't consistently return a pressed state. It sometimes rapidly fluctuates between an Off and On signal. If this fluctuation occurs within one iteration of the main program loop, it causes problems. Its not humanly possible to toggle the Hold switch so fast, but a loose connection can :P

Sony Europe Pushes PSP With Free Platinum Hits

November 21st, 2008, 23:00 Posted By: wraggster

SCEE has just confirmed to Siliconera that two new platinum PSP bundles will retail in Europe, details of which are as follows:

PSP 3000 bundle: £149.99 with 2 x platinum games free of charge

PSP 2000 bundle: £139.99 with 2 x platinum games for £10 (RRP of PSP 2000 solus is £129.99)

Specific titles were not mentioned, but a quick check on the USK has ratings for “PSP Platinum Bundle: Lemmings + LocoRoco” and “PSP Platinum Bundle: Tekken: Dark Resurrection + Ridge Racer 2″. Unfortunately SCEE did not confirm when these bundles are due to go on sale, but it’s a pretty safe assumption that it will be in time for the Christmas holiday period. The 3000 bundle looks particularly appealing, with this model of PSP housing a sharper screen display. Now there’s just the matter of figuring out how to trade in a worn old model for this bundle…

LocoRoco 2 Trial Rolls Onto PSN

November 21st, 2008, 22:59 Posted By: wraggster

Sony finished LocoRoco 2. It’s in English too and comfortably sitting in European stores as of today. Japan gets LocoRoco 2 in about two weeks and some unknown time in the future SCEA will publish it in North America. But, you don’t have to wait for months to pass to give LocoRoco 2 a try

A downloadable LocoRoco 2 demo is on Japan’s PlayStation Store right now. Since the focus of LocoRoco 2 is still rolling singing yellow blobs by tilting the world the LocoRoco 2 demo should be very import friendly.

Patapon 2: The Hero And The Bird Boss

November 21st, 2008, 22:55 Posted By: wraggster

The Patapon are at war again and need God’s drum beats to march to victory. After Haripon’s ship crashes he awakens to your rhythm after and sets out to find survivors. If this sounds a lot like Patapon you’re right. Sony didn’t deviate much from the formula of the first game. Instead they expanded upon it by adding new elements like hero Patapons. You meet your first hero trapped underneath a rock separating your small army of spear throwing Patapon from a fire breathing Dondonga.

Save him and you get to name him. Yes, this Patapon is that special. I stuck with the default name “hero” and brought him on a mission to crush an enemy base. The hero Patapon did more damage than a regular spear throwing Yaripon and has a special attack. If you’re in fever mode and hit the drums perfectly on beat the hero Patapon tosses a spear with a green aura. This spear does about 2x - 3x his regular attack which is already around 2x a regular Yaripon. The glowing spear also releases a wide green cloud that damages a group of enemies. Since the Zigoton, the rival tribe of the Patapon, tend to cluster together the toxic green cloud is debilitating. To balance out the game Patapon 2 piles more Zigoton on the screen which makes for some chaotic fights. The other ability my hero Patapon had in the demo is he can respawn on the battlefield. If your hero dies a ten second counter appears above his picture. When the countdown ends he magically appears on the battlefield with full HP.

The basic Patapon can upgrade to becomr more effective too by utilizing the evolution system. By gathering items you can change a normal Yaripon to a PyoPyo, a walking eyeball with rabbit ears. If you include the normal form there are eighteen possible evolutions for the Patapon shown on the evolution tree. Since evolving Patapon requires items you’re showered with items during the missions.

I turned one of my Yaripon into a PyoPyo and switched an axe wielding Tatepon into a purple eye with cat ears before setting off for the final mission in the demo. In this stage I fought the Bocchichi, a giant bird. I struck first with a wave of arrows and spears. The bird retaliated by pecking the ground which directly hit my spear line. Then the flightless bird jumped in the air and hit the Tatepon group with a ground pound. The bird’s most deadly attack is a blast of yellow gas from its behind that puts any Patapon it touches to sleep. While sleeping the Patapon are vulnerable and more importantly for the bird they can’t attack. I should have made more arrow shooting Yumipon. That would have made the fight a breeze, but thanks to the powerful hero Patapon and his glowing green spears I took the bird down. I also lost most of my army so the fight was really my hero Patapon and few survivors versus the bird boss. Stick tightly to the beat to activate the hero Patapon’s special attack was the key to victory.

Extreme Hotrod Heading to Burnout Paradise

November 21st, 2008, 20:36 Posted By: Shrygue

via IGN


When Criterion Games Producer Jeremy Chubb arrives on the official PlayStation Blog, you know that more Burnout Paradise content is on the way. On today's post, Chubb announced the upcoming arrival of the Carson Extreme Hotrod. The car looks like a pretty ridiculous ride and Chubb hints at more news and announcements to come. Chubb teases readers with: "we could explain that we've rewired Burnout's vehicle dynamics system, so it handles more intuitively and drifts more realistically than any other car. We could reveal that it's the first of a pack of two cars designed to re-imagine Burnout Boost. Which explains the blue exhaust flames..."

Chubb ends the post by noting that the car will be something you need to own in 2009 and informs Burnout junkies to look for more on their Burnout Paradise Boost Specials Pack. While the post obviously mentions nothing about the 360 version, we can only assume the hotrod will make its way to Xbox Live at the same time. For now, check out this slick new shot of the Carson Extreme below.

LocoRoco 2 demo, BioShock rooms on PSN

November 21st, 2008, 20:31 Posted By: Shrygue

via Eurogamer


Sony has updated the PlayStation Store with a demo of LocoRoco 2, the BioShock Challenge Rooms and a host of premium downloadables for Need For Speed Undercover along with usual candidates Rock Band and Guitar Hero World Tour.

LocoRoco 2 is out in the UK today, although you might not know it from the game's low-profile launch build-up. In addition to seeing what we thought of it in our LocoRoco 2 PSP review, however, you can now grab the demo.

Elsewhere there's the promising but polarisingly priced BioShock Challenge Rooms, which introduce three puzzly new levels that ask you to make the most of the game's varied arsenal of weapons, plasmids and tonics, each with unlockable Trophies and secrets.

Meanwhile the DLC war between Rock Band and Guitar Hero goes monetarisingly on with Rock Band add-ons from Dead Kennedys, Mission of Burma and Century Media Girls and Guitar Hero World Tour downloads from The Raconteurs.

Over 100,000 PS Home invites sent

November 21st, 2008, 20:26 Posted By: Shrygue

via Eurogamer


Sony will be sending out hundreds of thousands PlayStation Home beta invites today.

This coincides with the launch of v1.0 of the virtual world, according to TedTheDog (he's probably not a dog) on the European PlayStation forums.

Furthermore, next Thursday "another larger batch of invitations will be sent".

Those not invited - perhaps they're not loyal enough - are told an open beta will "not be far behind".

The PlayStation Home update brings a meaty list of changes to the table, such as a tutorial, background downloading, more dance moves, reintroduction of regional travel, and a club support system.

The full list of alterations can be found on the European PlayStation forum.

Alternatively, you virtually wander into our PlayStation Home gamepage for our thoughts on the closed beta.
