I put a game on the Stick, it works fine on the PSP.

But I can't put another game on it, unless I rename the files, but then the game won't show up, only the one that has not been renamed.

Do I need to create a folder?

Please help!

EDIT: I formatted the Memory Stick because I initally placed a corrupt EBOOT on it, and I couldn't delete it, so it ate up 300MB.

Now I'll start over, but I need to know how to work multiple PSX games on the PSP...

each game gets s separate folder

Oh wait, I think I get it now?

I followed these instructions :http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FybWB-HBBp4

I was putting more than game into the the PSP/GAME/WID WEIR he instructed.

So I'm supposed to make the folders like PSP/GAME/Poy Poy, and PSP/GAME/Bushido Blade?

Correct

 

[RAINBOW PONY]

Correct

Crap, had a brain freeze there.

Thanks man, going to try it now!

Oh oh, another question.

Saving is possible, right?

And if I save, where does the Save file go? How much space does it use?

Another question :

How do I change the image on the PSP Menu, or at least get the game's title on it?

I can't tell what game I am highlighting, they are all the Gray PSX logo/avatar, and I have to press Triangle, and Information on every one of them to know which game I am looking at.

Any help, or a place where I can download Game images to use?

Saves, I believe go in the same file, when saving you will have two memorycards to choose from and up 12~15 save files (just like you are playing on a PSone with two empty memory cards for each game).

You need to do that during the ripping process with popstation.

 

[RAINBOW PONY]

I need to put the images in at the Popstation step?

Damn.

Where can I find images for the games? And how do I put them on?

 

[djdelly]

what started out as a quick question.....

it's been months since I did any of this.... Image packs

the whole bottom half of the popstationGUI is for putting the images with the PSone rips.

Wow, awesome, thanks man!

No Poy Poy 2, but I'll just use the 2 different ones on the site.

I'll need to start over then.

And what can I say, one question leads to another.

But thanks man, this really speeds it up for me! I'll try out Devil's Dice and see if it's playable on such a small screen.

 

[djdelly]

I did the same thing and I haven't got around to re-ripping the games I've already done.

How do you know which are which games then?

 

[djdelly]

Triangle on the file - info. It will tell you the name of the game.

Triangle on the file - info. It will tell you the name of the game.

I know, but when you have a bunch of games, pressing Triangle - Info on them gets tedious.

I only have 4, so shouldn't take too long to re-do them.

As long as we're on a roll, I have another question :

Is there any way to tell the size of a game prior to making it? I saw Bushido Blade is 300MB, and now I'm not sure I want to keep it on, as I see Poy Poys are only 170 MB each. I can almost fit 2 of those for 1 Bushido.

I rip about 30 of my games before I found out about he image packs.... I've had the same 8 games on my memory stick for the last 4 months so it's pretty easy to remember.

That I don't know....

30 games?? How big is your stick?

I have a 2GB and I think I can fit in 7 games.

I ripped them to my computer, then archived them on a few DVD's. my 2 gig stick has 8 psp games and a bunch of other emus.

Why does the PSP's battery always die overnight?

Should I be putting the Power button on "HOLD"?

I normally just push up for a seconds and it turns off, but then if I leave it like that the battery is dead in the morning.

Push it and hold it up. the quick push puts it in sleep mode.

How do I know the difference?

 

[djdelly]

hold it up until it shuts off

 

[RAINBOW PONY]

hold it up until it shuts off

I always do that, but the battery dies, and I have to charge it up again.

What is the "HOLD" function? Where you pull the switch down instead of up?

 

[djdelly]

did you buy it new or used? Most of this info is in the manual.

hold is pushing the power switch to the down position.

I bought it used, only the PSP itself is what I got.

I know hold is pushing it down, but what does it do? Is it the proper way to turn it off?

 

[djdelly]

Push the power switch up quickly and the green light will flash 5-6 times. Sleep

hold the power switch up for a few seconds until the green light flashes twice. off

while the PSP is off or on, you can push the power switch down "locking" the switch, so you don't accidentally turn it off or on.
