The PSP used in the clip is a PSP Slim&Lite with 3.90 M33-3 firmware. The CPU was set to the highest setting, 333MHz.

The CSO was compressed with level 9 compression, which is currently the highest one. However, it is also the slowest in loading times but it's still much better than the UMD.

The Memory Stick used was a 4 GB Sandisk PRO Duo ULTRA II, which means that it's faster than the normal ones. This doesn't help much on the PSP as the data transfer speed on the system isn't enough, you need a proper USB 2.0 memory card reader to really enjoy the faster data transfers.

I dumped the UMD to an ISO to the Memory Stick by myself with an application called UMDumper by PhonicUK. http://www.phonicuk.com/UMDumper.aspx

After dumping it as an ISO file, I transferred it over to my PC and ripped and converted it to CSO with an application called UMDGen. http://umdgen.ps3news.com/utilities.html

I have installed the fatmsmod.prx patch to load it from 3.71 so that plugins work and ISOs load faster, made by Dark-Alex: http://exophase.com/files/psp/fatmspatchv2.rar

The small text in the bottom-left of the screen is a plugin called HUD by Darko79, it shows your battery percentage, the current time, CPU speed etc. wherever you are. http://forums.qj.net/showthread.php?t=131694

The theme I am using in the video is called Sony Black with Red Glow by Hurtween. http://forums.maxconsole.net/showthread.php?p=920270

I guess that's all... Oh, the load times were as follows (counted from the end of the gameboot to the start of the race):

CSO: 46 seconds
UMD: 1 minute, 25 seconds

  • @legend12371: Replaced gameboot.pmf in flash0:/vsh/resource/

  • the theme doesn't work on 5.50 Gen-D3, I tried like millions of times and couldn't make it work properly, I get just first crappy background and that's all, not custom icons or gameboot vid, Could somebody please help me with this?

  • @radiohm3 I'm afraid the theme is not available for your firmware. I'm surprised your PSP is still working, to be honest.

  • is this game online?

  • @MRGAMERNEWS No, buy the game, rip it, throw the disc away or burn it or whatever you want to do.

  • Nice theme!

  • @MrGreedIsGood Thanks, I wish I still had it. Took me a long time to gather together all of the things included.

  • Oh, did you use CisoPlus! to not compress the video files? Because it's not needed, because the video files are as compressed as they can be and only take up more time to load when you compress it again.

  • @legend12371 It's a custom theme. This kind of themes are only avaible on Custom Firmware.

  • how did you change your psp boot thingy

  • man every time i go to career mode load times is so slow like a turtle

  • what is the song that apears before the main menu?? ive always wanted to know! :O

  • @00000000000000000786

    If u are using a sony memory card it is probably that because sony made it so it was almost impossible to rip the in game videos onto the card, try getting a sandisk card works alot better
