=================================== PSP-HUD v2.02 - August, 31st 2008.

This is a plugin for PSP CWF 4.01M33-2 (not tested on earlier versions) that displays some basic info on screen:

  • FPS
  • CPU/BUS speed and CPU usage
  • notification on CPU speed change
  • battery status (percent and time left)
  • local time Besides displaying info on screen this plugin can:
  • change cpu speed
  • take a screenshot

Installation:

Put hud.prx and hud.lang in seplugins directory on your PSP memory stick and append ms0:/seplugins/hud.prx to vsh.txt, game.txt and pops.txt files.

Usage:

Default configuration is to show cpu speed change notification, battery percent left, local time in bottom right corner. Default button setup is:

  • NOTE+LTRIG to access configuration menu.
  • NOTE+RTRIG to turn HUD off and change between display methods (this will only change method currently, it will not be saved, to save it you must enter menu)
  • NOTE+UP to take a screenshot When you exit menu configuration will be automatically saved in ms0:/seplugins/hud.cfg If button configuration is changed and you can't enter menu anymore (or can't rembember) delete hud.cfg and restart PSP.

Display methods:

Method 1: this is a new method that is not available always, it hooks to a system API to get accurate FPS reading and to draw hud display, when current running application/game is not using this API, plugin fallbacks to method 2 and FPS will always display 59 or 60 Method 2: this is an old method (from pre 2.0 versions)

In most cases Method 1 gives better display and sometimes worse, if there is a problem with one you can switch between methods from menu or by pressing NOTE+RTRIG (default key configuration).
