Not all PSX games work on 3.52 kernel just as not all PSX games would work if you had a 3.40 OE-A CFW installed.
The popsloader plugin gives you the best of both worlds. It will let you emulate a different kernel version if you happen to have a PSX game that would not run on the current CFW you have installed.
Example: (This is what I experienced)
I originally was on 3.40 OE-A and played FFVII but as most know 3.40 OE-A runs that PSX game like crap. So it is suggested to upgrade to 3.52 M33-4 and the game plays allot smoother on that custom firmware.
So I updated to 3.52 M33-4 and the FFVII game worked flawlessly. But I then had issues with other PSX games running on 3.52 M33-4.
1 Particular game was Breath Of Fire 4 when I started the game on 3.52 M33-4 I could hear the sound but there was no video. So I knew that it played fine on 3.40 OE-A so I installed the popsloader plugin.
Then I launched the Breath Of Fire 4 game which brings up the popsloader selection menu. I then choose 3.40 as the pops version and it launched and played the PSX game correctly.
So now I can play both FFVII and Breath Of Fire 4 without any issues on my 3.52 M33-4 CFW PSP using the popsloader plugin. (Orignal from flash 3.52 for FFVII and 3.40 for Breath Of Fire 4)
It isn't that hard to understand.
You drag the seplugins folder linked above into the root of the Memory Stick. Go into recovery menu then plugins and enable the popsloader plugin.
Now when you launch a PSX game the pops version menu will come up and let you choose what version to play the PSX game under.
The next time you go play that game it will use the previous pops version that you selected.
If for some reason the pops version doesn't boot the PSX game or the game lags or freezes then you can change the pops version by holding down the R trigger button when booting the game. This brings up the pops version menu again so you can change to a different pops version.
Once you find the pops version that works the best with that PSX game do not hold the R trigger again just boot normal and it will auto-boot that version again when you play the game.
