Wipeout Pure and fantastic firmware 3.11

[G'Kyl]

I stand corrected. It's above 3.03, though, so you'll need to upgrade for R&C.

upgrading for size matters is well worth it.Even if it is lacking in the lifespan department:me and my bro cleared it in 3 days

One question... Does 3.40 OE-A play pure without glitches and...

Completely. Every game I've played so far works perfectly, even at the smoother 333mhz overclock option. The other beatiful thing about 3.40 OE-A is that every single game, regardless of region, works without requiring anything toggled in the PSP. I have two versions of Wipeout Pure on my memory card; North American and European. Omega Pack goodness, baby!

And adhoc mutli?

[The Uncreated]

I suppose so, but I haven't gotten around to using that as yet (problems with Xlink Kai and my network card).

Did you ever have to toggle anything in order to play games from different regions? I figured PSP games were code free anyway...

Well, it certainly seems I have to, considering you can switch regions in the console's recovery menu. Placebo effect I guess, considering the PSP is region free. Dunno.

I think thats for movies only - possible time zone(s) as well...

Just installed 3.40 OE and I can confirm as well that Pure's working normally. Assuming 3.40 EO is basicly 3.40 + the hacked part, it would probably mean that whoever is aflicted by problems with 3.10 -> 3.30 non-custom firmware may solve them by going to 3.40.

I was just greeted by the same bug as talked about at the start of this thread! Im not up for all the unofficial firmwares and stuff. I dnt want to get bricked! *gasp*
can i upload my profile and ask someone to just do the gamma flash tournament for me please?
If anyone will, just reply to this thread and then ill post the passworded zip of my profile (and PM the password to you)

anyone fancy a bit of flash again?



p.s
im only on flash as my previous save became "corrupt"

Does DevHook work with an OE-firmware? Cause that may solve the problem at least for the OE-users, cause Gamma definitely won't work with 3.40 (OE-A).

[q_dmc12]

I'm pretty sure it does - don't quote me but I believe it is built into the OEs.

Sorry to hear that, cause Gamma works like a charm for me on 3.40 OE-A (as well as everything else). That's also why I've written my previous post in the first place. So it might be PSP-specific.

I've tested in 333 MHz and with a rip on the memory stick. I'll try on default speed with an UMD disc to see if anything changes.

[il_NIK]

Here me too...

I've my psp again in my hands, and I remember my problems at Amsterdam Conv.

Both my psp with 3.11, but not the same problems of Alterego (or just one time), but I had great problems of lags everytime I played even if with few people.

I hope is all ok now...isnt it?

Anyone tested fw 3.50 with Pure? If so do you know if the problems discussed in this thread are fixed? I would upgrade my PSP so see if the rumoured cpu speed upgrade works retrospectively with Pure. The 266 upgrade on 3.0+ did, so maybe this will, but this is stuff beyond my understanding and there is no official word. After the things posted in this thread I`m worried that 3.5 could break my Pure though......

[Relequestual]

i 4got 2say, i am running fw 3.5. still the bug has not gone away! damm!
i encountered it when i upgraded from 3.1 or sommin to 3.5. peeeeed offffff


can we crate a forum where users can upload their profiles and the advanced users can take out a few mins to complete them for us? seenin as i dnt wanna mess with on official firmwares n stuff. dnt want 2 b bricked!

[Asayyeah]

I think you can put your profile and upload it into your WZ files ( from 'my wipeoutzone' ---> 'my files' )
I am quite busy those days , i can't do that for you but i am sure a fellow pro from here will

[Frances_Penfold]

Just read through the entire thread to make sure I understand the issues-- so the effects of the newer firmwares are ONLY with respect to multiplayer? Single player (time trials, etc.) works fine?

I'm disappointed that 3.5 doesn't resolve the problems but then again, I'm not surprised. It'll be a tough choice what to do when Pulse comes out since (as others have pointed out) the game will almost for sure require a firmware upgrade.

If single player Pure isn't affected, I'll be inclined to do the upgrade for sure. If it is... maybe a second PSP? Hmmm.

[infoxicated]

Somebody said it caused graphical issues in one of the download tracks, too. We're aware of them, but have no idea what has changed in the firmware to cause them. Trouble is, the development team are so busy with Pulse right now that a fix is not the priority.

[q_dmc12]

and until it is, people will continue to use devhook and custom firmwares.
