0okm has just announced that he has successfully emulated UMDs on 2.6 firmware. This is great news for the PSP community; for the first time ever, a kernal mode application has been loaded on 2.XX firmwares. 0okm has released a handful of technical details about the findings in his blog, and has even posted a simple application which shows how it works. This should, in essence, allow for a 2.6 firmware ISO loaders soon enough, and eventually, much more homebrew as developers learn from the source code and apply the techniques elsewhere.
I just ask myself is this going to bring bad or good to the psp scene with game (umd) dev's would they still want to develope games or is this gonig to be a portable dreamcast
