3.71 fatmsmod in 3.80/3.90m33
February 15, 2008
The purpose of this patch is to load the fat memory stick driver of 3.71 in 3.80/3.90 to make memory stick reading work better.
Instructions:
- Using psardumper get fatmsmod.prx from 3.71. It doesn’t matter if it is decrypted, encrypted, etc.
- Copy it from /F0/kd/fatmsmod.prx to the root.
- Copy the FATMSPATCH to /PSP/GAME and run it.
notes:
- It is probably better idea that is encrypted because it is also compressed and use less flash space.
- fatmsmod of 3.71 usually works better because it has a better cache system, and usually reads on bigger blocks (in some things is worse than 3.89/3.90 like sometimes reading more data than needed – lazy prediction -).
- However it uses more kernel memory, and it is unknown if it will have any kind of secondary effect running this module in 3.80/3.90.
- The lags in np9660 no umd mode won’t probably be solved, as that is a different problem.
update: version 2 (link updated)
- Added to the installer the check of correct checksum of fatmsmod.prx. Use only encrypted or decrypted version of file.
- Music, videos, etc now work.
