Im a REALLY big noob when it comes to stuff like this so sorry if this question is dumb.

i have v 2.6 TIFF eLoader but i cant figure out how to play homebrew games. The main one i want to work is PSP Revolution v0.2.

The web site http://psp-homebrew.eu/firmware.php?plat...&view=confirmed says that PSP revolution v0.1 works on v2.6 TIFF eLoader but i cant get that one to work on it either.

I not sure if im even setting up the game the right way. If any1 can help me that would be great.

this link provides the tiff loader with a windows installer so you dont have to mess with installing it yourself.
http://files.fanjita.org/psp/eloader098.exe
this is also taken from their site.

Installing Homebrew:
--------------------

- Copy the homebrew you want to run to your memory stick.
Usually, this means unzipping a directory that contains an
EBOOT.PBP file to somewhere under \PSP\GAME\. The exact
location and folder name usually doesn't matter, but for best
compatibility you should try to use the same names as
originally shown in the homebrew ZIP file.

If the instructions with the homebrew contain separate steps
for v1.0 and v1.5 firmwares, then usually you'll get best
results by following the v1.0 instructions.

NOTE: If the homebrew is written in LUA, you need to copy it
to a subdirectory under the your LUA Player "APPLICATIONS"
folder.

The method for running eLoader itself depends on which
version of the PSP firmware you have installed. Refer to the
appropriate section below:

Running eLoader : via TIFF mode
-------------------------------

- Make sure you have a custom wallpaper set. Any image will do.

- Use the PSP's built-in photo viewer to open the "eLoader 098"
folder, this will cause the loader to start. If your PSP
hangs at this point, then try the following:

- check your firmware version. This loader is for v2.0 - v2.6
ONLY.
- check that you have the loader files in the correct
place (see above)
- turn your PSP completely off, then back on again.
The loader works best on a freshly-rebooted PSP.
- try setting a custom background - some people have
reported that it works better if you use a custom
wallpaper (any image).
- try 'touching' the TIF image file : see 'fixing
up the file times' below.

Running eLoader : via GAME mode
-------------------------------

- Load up the GTA game from the UMD.

- Open the menu with 'START', then select 'Load Game'.

- Select the eLoader icon from the list of saved games.
Confirm that you want to discard current progress.

- The eLoader should start after a few seconds.

- If instead, GTA loads a normal savegame, then you have the
patched version of GTA (see below).

Hi,

First I'd like to thank the guys that put in the time writing the code that make our systems more then what they were designed for. I've recently acquired a 2.6 FW PSP but it has a cursed TA-082 MB. So far all I have done is run homebrew on it, no UMD's yet (or demo's for that matter).

D347hX: Hexitnow gave you the location to put your files "\PSP\GAME\", the problem is that you kept a bunch of folders that are not needed.
You said you have two sub folders:
"%_SCE_PSPR and _SCE_PSPR. In %_SCE_PSPR i have EBOOT.PBP and in _SCE_PSPR i have a Themes and Song folder and another EBOOT.PBP file"

What you need to do is take your "_SCE_PSPR" and move it down to \psp\game\. The _SCE_PSPR folder has the sub folders that you mentioned (song and Themes) as well as the eboot file. Thats all you need.

A few notes/questions here:
You can rename that _SCE_PSPR folder whatever you'd like, I recommend adding a number to the front as well so that you can alphabetically determine the order of your menu. Eg. you could put "1. PSP Revolution" if you wanted it to appear first in your menu.

Also, I've read a few posts that have stated that you need to have a custom background set to use the tiff eloader, I've tried with and without custom backgrounds turned on and it works regardless, was this a limitation in previous versions? Just currious.

Thanks
