GTA can be rebooted in UPDATE mode :D

[GNON]

It's been a little while since we updated eLoader, and a few people have been asking what's happening. So here's a little update on what we've been up to.

 

We spent a little time looking at various exploit possibilities, and some of that work is still on-going. We can't say much about what those involve, because the chances are that nothing will come of them, so there's no point in getting people excited. One thing that did come out of all that though, is Moonlight's discovery that GTA can be rebooted in UPDATE mode. If you're a developer with a v2.0 or v2.01 PSP, and want to explore update mode, then you can download an eLoader patch here that will allow eLoader to support UPDATE mode.

 

Note that this only works on v2.0 or v2.01, and is only useful to developers looking to explore the UPDATE mode environment. We don't yet have the syscall mappings for v2.5 or v2.6 - if you happen to have a v2.5 or v2.6, and understand how to obtain a memory dump using GTA, then please take a look in the README.TXT file inside that patch download. If you can obtain a memory dump from one of those firmwares in UPDATE mode, then with your help we would be able to generate the updated syscall mappings - thanks.

 

Remember - update mode isn't useful to the vast majority of PSP users, and probably won't lead to anything useful; but for developers, it's vaguely interesting to play with.

 

On other fronts, we haven't been doing much with eLoader recently, for several reasons:

We're busy cleaning up the code, trying to flush out some bugs and make a stable platform for further development. While we do that, it's difficult to also develop anything new.

Fanjita's laptop, with his compiler and development environment, is away for repairs, so he can't do any work on the PSP for a week or so. While it's away, he's been working on a new project which should benefit all homebrew users, and will hopefully be unveiled in the next few weeks.

Ditlew has been busy in his personal life, and also on a couple of side projects.

Have fun with UPDATE mode, we'll see you soon!

[stseiya]

çà rejoindrait pas par hasard ce qu'il y a marquer dans cet news?:

 

Après la découverte par Moonlight que GTA pouvait démarrer en UPDATE mode, Fanjita et Ditlew nous proposent un patch de l'eLoader 0.97 s'addressant avant tout aux dévellopeurs et qui permet à l'eLoader de supporter le mode UPDATE de GTA sur les PSP v2.00 et 2.01.
