  2. Download the HBL Rev 94 release and copy the “hbl” directory and the “h.bin” file to memory root
  3. Now copy the hacked save data folder UCUS98732_DATA02 to /PSP/SAVEDATA
  4. Move any homebrew you want to play or try to the folder: /PSP/GAME
  5. Start the Patapon 2 demo and load the hacked save game, then load your homebrew from the HBL menu ;)

    nice, getting better and better

  • Zeonicroman

    Lets see how this version plays out. Thanks to all the staff at slim hacks for these cool updates and shame on all those that demand they want a better version now.

  • zeroerz

    please make a one compatible with daedalus

    • Jtotheb1

      stable release 93 was compatible with daedalus ._.

      • dimy93

        94 is even better -it’s written that it’s less stable but it has better improvement

  • skyblaze

    Anyone able to confirm masterboy, gpsp, and sound in picodrive working (it works… just no sound)… Too lazy to pull out my PSP at the moment

    • peppedaman

      lazy *******…sigh…

      Masterboy 2.10 and EmuMaster V3.GX FFXIII Edition (same thing, EmuMaster has some minor updates) are both working perfectly in r94. You have to manually create a folder called Save in both the roms gbc and roms sms folders in order to save. After you set your personal settings in the menu, press triangle to save them as default. Press L during a game to return to the emulation menu. You can import Homer’s RIN saves, just take the files in the SAVE folder of Homer’s RIN and put them in roms gbc/save. Enjoy!

      GPSP Kai 3.2 Test 02 and Test 04 are both working, as ever. Set sce_ctrlpeekbufferpositive to 0 in hbl_config.txt to fix sound lag, at the risk that the emulator may crash on start more often.

      Picodrive has no sound NOW, but Wololo says the next rev will. I’ll bet the next rev will also fix the low battery warning in Snes9x 0.4.2 Standard for 3.xx, so we’ll be able to perfectly play the LAST snes emulator before the move to kernel mode very soon. set sce_ctrlpeekbufferpositive to 0 for faster gameplay, unfortunately we can’t save until the low battery warning is fixed.

      Also set return_to_xmb_on_exit to 1 to avoid crashing on exit for gpsp, masterboy, and snes9x 0.4.2.

      Enjoy your games!

  • PSPNooob

      • PSPNooob

        1 more question, which version of daedalus support on it?

  • .Q.E.W.

    lol i have a question about this, and it may only be my psp (3000, 6.20 ofw) but when i did the halfbyte loader and after messing about with the emulators and whatnot, when i turn the psp off or in standby, if i move the psp, like pick it up or something or just leave it alone for a while…. its speaker crackles… which is kinda omoinus when you have the lights out. lol. XD does anyone know why it might do this? or is it just probably (and most likely) just my psp? just wondering. -

    ~.Q.E.W.~

    • Tyler

      Well iv never had that problem with my PSP and HBL. Its only ever happened when i put sound on with MRC on Daedalus.

    • franco831

      Q.E.W. its most likley that its yur psp because i have the exact same psp u have (and its pretty old lol) and all the hombrew and emulators (including snes and gba) work fine 4 me :)

  • rdycrz

    I have a PSP 3001 OFW 5.50, is there any Game Boy, Color and Advance emulator that works with this HBL Rev 94 or 85?

    • Kezariak

      For the GBA, there is gpsp kai. If I recall correctly, you can use gpsp kai build 3.2 test 02/04. You would need the file gba_bios.bin, which you must find yourself, and gba ROMs, which must also be found through your own efforts. But yeah, I’m pretty sure that’s the one. sorry, I don’t have a link.

      • rdycrz

        Kezariak – I already knew about gpsp kai but I want to play original gameboy and gameboy color games.

    RELEASE SOME ISO LOADER COMPITABLE WITH HBL

    • hacktester

      You have no right to order wololo what to do.In fact,he knows a lot more than you,and they are alredy working on an ISO Loader,even if it can’t load anything yet.Its called Koens Loader.It has a forum.If you are intrested,go ahead and support the Koens team.I dont think it will load anything until next year,anyway.Remember,it takes 5 minutes to code an application which say ,,Koens Loader by jaja2u.Special thanks to wololo,m0skit0,blahblahblah”.

  • lucianolanzoni

    O picodrive 1.51 para psp ainda esta sem som tambem, mega drive e o mega cd estão sem som e as revisões do daedalus x64 não funcionam.

  • Parma

    would you please help me to downgrade my psp to an earlier version ?

    • PSP Bricker

      what kind of psp do u have? if it was psp 3000, psp go or a V3 motherborad psp 2000 then u cant downgrade

  • hacktester

    I dont understand why NO ONE said that HBL R93&R94 includes the Network Modules xD This indeed means that you can use WiFi and AdHoc with homebrews which have this option.For example,I had fun yesterday with WiFi Controller.Works like a charm,all you need is to install it correctly.You can also use WiFi File Transfer,which works very well too.I’m also pretty sure AdHoc works correctly,because Guitar Star usually give me an error when trying Multiplayer,but since R93 the Network Light is flashing and it give me a message which say something in france which I cant understand.Im gonna try another homebrew to be sure.
    NOTE:Some homebrews which use network may NOT work,because this is still in progress.Too bad,GoTube is one of the homebrews which won’t work at the moment :( But hey,cheer up,we’re getting closer and closer to use it :)

  • hacktester

    Sorry for double posting and dont kill me for this,but I disagree with wololo.A lot of homebrews which worked on R93 do not work anymore on R94.In fact,I didnt see any homebrews which work on R94 but didn’t work on R93.Sure,if you want to give the homebrews for a crash,go ahead,sooner or later the HBL team will release a better revision than R93 and R94,but until then….

    • PSP Bricker

      Whats up hacktester….
      hope you had a great time on holidays
      ive learned some C++
      ive learend about constants and variables , if statements, loops, swicth cases & pointers
      it was really hard to learn C++ bcuz i couldnt devote time for it
      i got a lot of studying and lectures (which really pissin me off)
      but anyway me and krazy 66 made some very simple programs
      have you studied any C++?
      do u have plans to?
      it will take a long time to study like u said
      but its really a useful

      • hacktester

        As I said before,I am planing to start this Fall.It actually depends on how school will be(I can get this information from trusted sources).If not,then I guess I’ll start this summer :) But its not like I would love to code a HEN,an eLoader or a CFW;Just want to ,,play” with the codes to make funny things for PSP,and then to help HBL team with small issues.However,I’m not really intrested in C++,so I could learn or not.

      • PSP Bricker

        im not thinkin of making a CFW or what ever now
        but im havin fun learnin C++
        and the tutorial is good there is no need for school the only problem is there is no enough examples
        we can learn everything together through emails if u want like what me and krazy 66 did
        but i dont know why krazy 66 is no more in touch
        maybe he dont want to learn C++ anymore
        anyway its up to u guys

    • 2678728

      is this true? so wich one is the most usefull? im REALLY new to this

      • hacktester

        The most useful Network homebrew?Well,if you have a friend with PSP, I would say WiFile Transfer.If not,its WiFi Controller.And also remember that there are a lot of homebrew games which have a multiplayer option.I’ll check out this night if I have any homebrew game which use Network,and I’ll anounce you if I will find any.If not…Then I guess I’ll start testing again :D Stay on this page,I promise you at least 3 homebrew games which use Network until 18 iuly.

  • PSPNooob

    Does cps 1 emulator work on it?

  • hacktester

    NOTE:WiFi Controller only works with R93.

  • dragonkiller1121

    Guess what everyone i find a snes emu thats works with HBL rev 94 ;)
    its called Uo Snes9x for PSP v0032 just search it in the search bar ..
    BTW whats up with the emumaster and all the masterboys .. it’s not letting me save on any of them it keeps comeing up battery power low and may not save… plz tell me how to fix this … what do i do…

    • hacktester

      Wololo does know about this and he said it will be fixed in the next revision of HBL.
      And congrats for the descovery :P

      • dragonkiller1121

        thankz hacktester… so in the next rev the save thing will be fixed

  • hacktester

    Alredy good news:now I’m 100% sure multiplayer works with Guitar Star(I translate the message in Google Translate and it say to wait for another player to connect).Heretic also work at multiplayer mode,but it will crash if you will try to go back to the menu while it is searching for servers.I also think that DOOM works with AdHoc mode because I saw someone saying it does,but I’ll confirm tommorow.

  • franco831

    well in my opinion sum hombrews worke better with hbl r93 but hbl 94 is sumwat more stable…¿does anybody knws if a later version of psp filer 4.4 work in hbl 93 or anyother version?…im trying to extract zip. and rar. files dat i download directly to my psp :D

    • hacktester

      I dont know any later version of PSP Filer 4.4,but if you want to extract .zip and .rar use Tipster Unzip/Unrar Utility 0.3 which also works on HBL.

      • franco831

        thnx hacktester i will try it……1 question doe, does any version of xplara work on hbl?

      • hacktester

        I didnt saw any version of this on the Compatible Homebrew page,but I’ll check out 3 versions by myself to see if I can get it work.Lol I would love this application if it would work….It would be my first report on advancedPSP xD

  • N1ghTWar10r

    can somebody tell me the best homebrew game that you can find to work on hbl im trying to find some but i only found counter strike 0.73 and battlegrounds 3.

    • hacktester

      Lol you dont even need to search,just look in the description and you wiill find one of the best homebrews(DOOM) xD And if you search HBL Compatible Homebrew you will find a link for $k0 Advanced PSP.tk $k1,that is m0skit0′s forum and you will find there ALL the homebrews which work on HBL,and you’ll choose by yourself the best homebrew.

    This guy is out dingoes original A330, Sony to hold back for a large electronics company in Brazil are already buying the franchise of the pet dingoes not that bad emulates PSX somewhat slower and more muted but to kill the worm, with 32MB of ram imagines the original A330 with 64MB of ram, i will even emulate N64 and PSX or talk will be like the PSP to PSX emulation.
    I think I did buy that crap on PSP should have waited longer, is cheaper and the system is still open I think I’ll cry.

    • hacktester

      It is Koens Loader,not Kroens Loader xD Obviously you’re not gonna find a link if you search for something which doesn’t even exists…Koens Loader is a project in progress(a homebrew) which works on HBL based on jaja2u’s code(with help from m0skit0 and noob81 too).It will be an ISO Loader but at the moment it cant load anythig so its pretty much useless now,but maybe in time it will load ISOs.No need for testing until jaja2u’s start.

I am on a PSP-3010, OFW 6.20, HBL Rev. 95 stable, gpsp kai ver. 3.2 test 02; I’ve tried to put , on hbl_config.txt, override_scectrlpeekbufferpositive on 0 but nothing, also tried to accomodate the audio buffer in different values, ranging from the minimum to maximum, and still nothing. What could I do to fix the lag?
