Multi-Firmware Module Coming for TA-082 Motherboards

With the 2.50-2.60 downgraders and custom firmwares coming out in the past few weeks, TA-082 owners have been standing by, unable to get in on the action; at least not without ending up with a bricked PSP. Well, now there's hope for those cursed (or maybe not cursed for much longer) TA-082 PSP users. Homebrew developer 0okm has stated in his blog that was able to successfully use his multi-firmware module on his TA-082 motherboard. Since 0okm is one of the very few PSP hackers to actually create his own modchip, he can test his creations without the fear of a brick. 0okm says in his post: "PSP Multi Firmware module will support TA-082 on NEXT Ver. so if your TA-082 PSP is FW2.50 or FW2.60 don't update !!! :P" So for all of you TA-082 owners, be on the lookout for the next version of 0okm's multi-firmware module!

Daedalus R6 Compatibility List

wally4000 has composed a compatibility list of Nintendo 64 ROMs for Strmnnrmn's Daedalus R6. Some of the games have screenshots listed with them along with comments and framerates. Not all of the games in the list have been tested at this point but it's a work in progress. At least it gives you somewhat of an idea of which games do and don't work with Strmnnrmn's emulator.

Check out the list here.
