StarFox, I'm running 3.90 m33-2, and 1.50kernel and have the Iphone, and Vista themes already on my slim3000, which work perfectly.

The themes were the easy part, and I'm sure once I perform cintro surgery, and menu key sound surgery it'll be just as easy.

BUT..I can't find the MGS-4 sounds in cut and paste ready format for 3.90 m33-2, and fear killing my slim if I try it personally.

I've not come across a Cintro I really like, except a few video clips on youtube.. Can you, or someone you know, take a .mov,.avi and tailor it for me for the Cintro?

Here's what I'd like to have as the Coldboot Cintro:
YouTube - Ford Shelby GT 500: "Germany"

(0secs-28secs)

Between my wife and I, we've got 3 Mustang GTs.. The GT500 is the epitome of Mustang prowess...it's still unattained as of right now.. but I'm working on it.

I've already backed up my flash0, so I'll be good if it bricks, but..
my system has flash0,flash1,flash2,flash3,and flash4... WTF are the rest for?

Most of the programs I've come across aren't compatible with 3.90..

Truely the bane of my existance.

Thanks for typing with competence. Now onto your questions and what not.

First of all I would advise an upgrade to the latest firmware, it's what the community is using and most of the stuff is developed for it. Head over to Dark-AleX - PSP Developer and update to 5.00m33-6.

Flash 0 is your basic firmware that your PSP runs on, flash 1 is your settings the rest I'm not so sure about.

Also, why don't you try making the cintro yourself?
This guide acts as a starting point, not spoon-feeding, it's better to do things yourself.
I feel I've provided practically everything you need to make you capable of making a cintro or whatever yourself, if you feel something should be added let me know.

Good luck with the mustang!
I don't even have a driver's license...

Minor update:
-updated gameboot section to include highboy's gameboot maker

First of all, post with competence.

Send me the theme and I'll take a look myself, is easier for me rather than following a description. From there I will try to help you if you post with competence.
