PSPins v1.0

[i15]

PSPins - PSP Install System

This program (for Windows) is a front-end that has the ability to execute a "script" in order to install or uninstall a game or application in the Memory Stick of the PSP.
The main propose of this software was to create a program that could be launch from a CD-ROM, with the ability to install a backup game in PSP by only pressing a single button!

Features:


Could be launch directly from a CD-ROM / DVD-ROM
Support files in ISO, CSO, RAR and ZIP format (including multi-volumes)
Show image of the game/application in PNG, JPG format
Automatic detection of Memory Stick Drive
Automatic detection of total space needed to install the game
Sort by name or size (asc/desc)
Integrated viewer (NFO/TXT and HTML files)
Allows sorting the Icons in GAME folder to hide corrupted data
Multi-language support

looks very close to what I was thinking of doing, but I was thinking about making one to run on the PSP and have it download and install/uninstall new games. I'll check it out tonight, looks great though.

awesome i gotta try this out cause i was thinkin of doing the same, so now we can just burn a dvd, hook up the psp and load games, sweet!

[hacken]

the program is good, systematically and well plan!

however,

1. for advance psp user, i'd rather copy and paste my self or rip as my wish, with several simple click and drag...

2. for newbie psp user, omg, i dont know what is going on, i even not sure what is "root directory"... the time i use to familiarise with your goodie, why not spend on familiarise with the loader program itself... even time a new game release i have to wait for BT download, omg i dont know how to use BT i need to wait for the HTTP version or FTP version... omg, I NEED to wait for the SCRIPT too???? Urgh.... omfg....

I think it's more:

this program is destinated for advanced users to create autorun dvd's to be used by newbies...

when i change the name of the iso to cPathISO in the script file some games work and some get copy errors

Confirmation Yes/No
Error Copying File or Folder : Cannot copy file: Cannot read from the source file or disk
Error copying file source to destination

it looks like most of the code at the bottom of the script is just repeated, could you put it in a function? or make like an ini file for the info or an edit menu in the gui

also get the iso size straight from the file size

just some ideas.....

[i15]

Hi to all!

Please indicate the names of the "cPathISO" that are not working.
Write the full line (example):
cPathISO = 'isos\Adventure Player (J)';

Please note that cPathISO don't have extension!


You can put the default "backpic.bmp" in the "Fastloader v0.5.rar", so when the script "unrar" the loader, it will also install the backpic.bmp.

Structure of the "Fastloader v0.5.rar" file should be:

PSP\GAME\FASTLOADER\EBOOT.PBP
PSP\GAME\FASTLOADER%\EBOOT.PBP
ISOMISC\backpic.bmp


One of the main propose of this program is to be run from a CD/DVD-ROM, so it has some limitations...
The ability to get iso size straight from the file could mean a lot of time (processing all files...).
So a line with the file size:
// :Size: 800749568
is used so that the program could indicate the size of the iso to install.

If you have shrinked/reconstruct the ISO file, that value could be incorrect.
You can find the correct value, by removing the commentary chars in the line:

//ShowMessage(FloatToStr(gameSpace));

of the script. Like that:

ShowMessage(FloatToStr(gameSpace));

When running the script, you will see a message with the total size of ISO.
Note that, and replace the
// :Size: 800749568
with the new value.
Don't forget to put again the comentary chars in the "ShowMessage" : "//ShowMessage".

yeah it seems that pspins gets different sizes than windows does but it does not affect copying files in pspins

i used shorter iso names without spaces and had better results using your program

Hi,

Sorry if i'm doing anything wrong here, but it works fine with files .iso
I then RAR then to save space and press F2 and change .iso to .rar in the script

It recognises the file there but then simply doesn't install it on the PSP...

Am I doing something wrong?

[blitzspear]

Ok, sorted it out...

Don't know why but using WINRAR 3.30 Corporate it doesn't work

But using WINRAR 3.30 and making a ZIP instead of a RAR works fine...

[i15]

Version 1.3 is out!

v1.3 - 2005-09-01
Added function to insert new games (new scripts).
Added function to delete a script.
No more problems in extracting RAR files ("UnRAR" DLL is now included).

Is there a script to install the emulator or is it done automatically?

[Casemon]

couple of suggestions to allow for copying backups usage from 1 pc.

- allow specify ISO directory to search for by default in addition to %installdir%/ISO. something similar to your Gamefront (http://www.ideiadupla.com/gamefront) program? Nice program, just donated you some money for that one by the way =)

- can we make scripts optional? suggest a generic script that follows DIRS from ISO dir (and see above) to get names for generic install script. keeping current install script behavior support for CD rom functionality. also, some function to match DB titles to Directory titles to avoid all this renaming.

with the above implemented, we can autolaunch this baby when connecting the PSP (AUTORUN.INF on the PSP pointing to PSPIns in the PC install dir) and it will know what is installed and what is not, and we can simply / quickly uninstall & install other backups!

what do you think?

[i15]

I've released a new version (2.0).
Check it.

You should add CSO file extension support.

Now its very useful for me, thx!
Edit: Do you know a place to get box art images?

[spindoc]

Just wanted to say, the name of the program is the same thing as I use as a gamer handle when I play on the PSP (instead of spinDoc, I go with PSPIN :D )
