With the release of recent, new PSP games, Sony has made it a requirement that you be on firmware 5.55 for most of these games. And since the latest custom firmware we have to our disposal is 5.50 GEN, we can't really play these new titles without losing our custom firmware abilities.
Fear no more though, as a dev named Yoshihiro has made a program that allows us to use said games without the need of firmware 5.55 installed on your PSP and that program is Game Decrypter.
To use the utility you must of course own an original copy of the game, the latest build of the program UMDGen, and additionally have custom firmware 5.50 GEN installed on your PSP. Here are the instructions to get your games up and running, provided with the readme file for the program:
Quote:
1. lets go first you need to install the GameZDecryptZ folder in your X:PSP/GAME folder
2. put your EBOOT.BIN extracted from UMDGEN PSP_GAME/SYSDIR and put it on root of your memory stick
3. now you can boot game decrypter now you can press X, 5 seconds later it's done
4. connect your usb cable check on root of your memory stick, you have a new folder called decryptor
5. copy the eboot.bin from the decryptor folder inside umdgen and rebuild your iso
Although no such games exist yet, the program is said to also work for those requiring firmware 6.00. As well, Game Decrypter is said to work for PSP 3000s using 5.03 GEN.
This should allow for those of you who have purchased games or will purchase games soon -- such as Gran Turismo, coming out this Thursday -- that require 5.55 to run, to play those titles. The download for the program can be found below in the downloads section.
(Note: No links to illegal pirated downloads to games will be allowed on our forums. Please do not, I repeat DO NOT, post such things as it may lead to you being banned.)
