A bit lost....

[skub]

My backup of puzzle bobble hangs at the Please Wait screen when I try to run it off the memory stick?

I am pretty sure my file structures on the disk is right, because it won't even get to the launch screen if the files aren't in the right spot. Any ideas?

This is Piracy talk. We cannot not advise on such topics.

What in the hell are you talking about? I want to be able to play my backups on my PSP, have multiple games when I'm going out without having to bring all my original UMD disks....

This is the same thing we talk about when we back-up original PS2 games on DVD's and get them to run via mod-chips. I have a UMD ripper and have backed up my games, now I need to figure out how to get them to run properly.

Totally agreed. Nothing illegal at this point!

Yeah, but if you did a bit of research first, loaders are illegal, as they contain hacked BOOT.BIN's in order to run backups. Btw, there is no need to get ugly saying "What in the hell are you talking about?, as some would agree it is piracy based.

The loader is legal so long as it was built from scratch or taken from a game I legally own. And for the sake of this conversation I just so happen to own a copy of every single PSP game available on the market and I've pre-ordered all the rest.

Btw there is no reason for you to pretend your a moderator as there already is a strong team of experienced mods keeping this site on lockdown.

And again... totally agreed!
The (real) Mods would kick our asses if we would post illegal **** on here...

the loaders i have seen have a ppf file that you apply to your own boot.bin file that you dump from the umd yourself

yea dont worry
id get ya if u talk about illegal stuff
so basically
no iso's
u must rip the game urself
and for loaders
u can talk about em and stuff
but no asking where to get them or hinting
at least on the boards

Thanks Ax, now back to my original question, how do I get everything to run without freezing at the loading screen?
