is it possible to remove the whole prometheus loader and be able to play a umd or iso

[Vegerunks]

It's probably in the ToC or whatever and no one reads that xD

It could be possible to make a banner that says:We don't support piracy,if you don't have a psp then we wont help you.Something like that

Even JPCSP itself already displays a message concerning this when attempting to load a Prometheus patched module, but people still ignore it...

[Zekro]

ah yes,I forgot about that.It seems like we can only do one thing:ignore those threads

[serio]

or ban the people that start them, as well as those who help them with their pirating. that's what all the other emulation forums do.

I got the same issue as him. Here my story. I got both the game I want to play (Dissidia Duodecim) and a PsP. The big issue is my psp broke (ok, I broke it) friday. I was on my way to the finals dungeons when it happen. Even if this game make me want to punch someone, I do want to complete it.

So if I understand the rude answer in this thread, you should be able to run the emulator / roms only if you have the original version. How do it wroke, some kind of decryption using the psp. Transfer of the game from the psp to the pc?

BTW: Since my screen is broke, I tried my psp to tv cable, the OS is running but he can't load the game.

Oh, and I can give you screenshot if you really care that much.

Also, if you don't want to be rude, the good answer is not "Zomg, go buy a psp you dumb" but "if you had a real version of the game/console, you could do X and it will work. Oh you don't have one, sorry for you"

What does having Prometheus have any more do with piracy then having an iso of a game. If you have a hacked psp you need prometheus and can path the games yourself if the games require firmware newer then yours. I have been testing Jpcsp lately because I wanted to play some of my games on my PC rather then my PSP. Today was the first time I tried to play one of my patched games and it came up with a message accusing me of piracy. I was so pissed off since I own all of my games and patched them myself (which is pretty easy) so I came here to see what that BS was about and found a bunch of idiots flaming people.

PS. Either remove that message or start showing that message to anyone trying to play an iso because otherwise you look like idiots that have no idea what is required to play games on the psp.

is it that hard to revert it then, or even re-dump the game? stop whining.

or you could, you know, update your firmware and buy the original game instead of trying to play it off an iso.

no idea what is required to play games on the psp.

well, you need your game umd disk to play it. not prometheus, that's only needed if you try to play games exclusively off of isos.

the message will stay. just because some angry newbie bursts in while throwing insults around isn't going to change anything. most people who complain about prometheus are pirates who just download the game, then complain they can't run it because it's patched and they're computer illiterate, so they want everything to be spoonfed to them like babies.

tl;dr
u mad?

agreed with serio :
If you claim you patched the games yourself you can:
1. Redump the game from original UMD;
2. You can remove the patch you applied.

Then if you have a PSP and original umd's why would you not update to the latest firmware, the process is fast and i can assure you none of your older games will stop functioning or anything like that.

MOTD: Obvious pirate is obvious.

I have the 6.60 firmware and older games run fine
