Bloodshedder Posted June 17, 2005 Since it's one of the most hacked, messed, and experimented with pieces of consumer electronics since the TiVo, I wasn't too surprised to see a version of Doom for the Playstation Portable (PSP) released. Of course, it isn't perfect, but apparently it runs. This might make those of you who've sprung for one a bit happier. 0 Share this post Link to post
Jehar Posted June 17, 2005 hah cool. Had some hands-on with the psp lately, and I must say I am impressed. Especially with memory stick support. Things like this will happen a lot because of such support. Hell I would not be surprised if the so called "Universal" Media Disks get cycled out for the more open and therefor fun alternative. 0 Share this post Link to post

Remilia Scarlet Posted June 17, 2005 Caco-Puff said:How do I install it? If you have an American PSP with v1.51 or later of the firmware, don't expect to be able to run it. If it's v1.50, then there's a new exploit available (it's a swap trick and requires two mem cards), but you'll have to find that yourself. Then follow the instructions on how to use it. If it's a v1.0 firmware (Japanese only), then you can simply copy the .ebp (maybe epb?) to the /psp/games/[game folder you make] directory, put the data files there, and run it. No swapping required since the 1.0 firmware is full of holes. I downloaded this the other day but haven't tried it yet. I just got my 1.50 firmware running my Genesis emu. 0 Share this post Link to post
sgtcrispy Posted June 17, 2005 Sweet! Although I updated to 1.51 I'll wait until a 1.51 version. I was wondering when that would happen. Mmm, Darkening 2 and AV on PSP... 0 Share this post Link to post
Caco-Puff Posted June 17, 2005 Bah,Is there any way to do it on an American PSP without the swapping trick? I bought mine the day it came out so it probably has 1.50. That and I only have 1 mem stick.I dont see why Sony would be against people using the PSP to play freeware games. 0 Share this post Link to post
Sporku Posted June 17, 2005 It's buggy as hell and has really horrible sound support. "Not Perfect", heh. 0 Share this post Link to post

You can check the firmware version in that home menu thingie, though. 0 Share this post Link to post

SteelPH Posted June 17, 2005 When I read the title, I thought PSX Doom was ported to PSP. 0 Share this post Link to post

Naked Snake Posted June 18, 2005 I'm sure that there will be an official Doom port for the PSP. 0 Share this post Link to post
Jehar Posted June 18, 2005 Could this be the answer for totally portable Doom? Cept playing without a mouse would be wierd... 0 Share this post Link to post
Anime200 Posted June 20, 2005 There is a 1.51 swaploit, but you need three memorysticks. Pwads are runnable too, sort of. You have to edit the supplied doom2.wad file with the new content, but I think it only works with replacing the old things not with new added things. BTW, Heretic is playable too: http://files.psphacker.com/cgi-bin/cfiles.cgi?0,0,0,0,12,425 I am not sure how playable, but the concept is believeable. Installation for hereticPSP: You have to rename the heretic.wad to doom2.wad and replace the old doom2.wad. I thought I shouldn't bother the Doomworld newscrew with this, like I did with DooMPSP. 0 Share this post Link to post

And we all know that in spite of the storage and pure processing capabilities of the PSP, some wackjob company will throw together a sloppy version of UDoom with missing/chopped levels, graphics on par with the original if we're lucky and a capped framerate. </rant> 0 Share this post Link to post
Jonesy89 Posted June 26, 2005 It is kinda weird trying to play Doom without a mouse, like for N64 or GBA. 0 Share this post Link to post
