Patches

How would you go about patching Monster Hunter Portable 3rd ISO with Team Maverick One's English patch? Seems it only works with seplugins but is there any other way?

I apologize if this is against the rules.

Are you referring to the HD version or the PSP version?

[CrimsonFangX]

The PSP version. HD version is for PS3, right?

[TheDax]

Indeed, it is. If you were intending to run the regular version in PPSSPP though, you'll be disappointed; it doesn't work(well it does, but certain people won't tell us how :\).

The HD version does run in PPSSPP though, and works with the English patch, too(make sure you get the proper PS3 patch, or face Bad Things and Glitches™...).

But anyway, to answer the question, grab their patcher app and then run your ISO through it. If your PSP ISO is patched in any way shape or form, make sure to tell the patcher you've touched it. Also, do the same for the PS3 version, even if it's untouched(freshly extracted from the EBOOT.PBP).

Alrighty then, thanks for the help.

I find this extremely odd. How, exactly, is this possible? I know it's just a remastered version but still.

HD Remaster games are basically just running in an emulator on the PS3. However, this emulator supports larger RAM sizes(64 megabytes and upward, up to 512 megabytes apparently), video RAM sizes(unsure of the limit, at least double the PSP's), and larger texture sizes(up to 2x the size). What's interesting, is that not all of the games use more than 64 megs, have double the VRAM, or double the texture sizes. If you allow for those in PPSSPP or JPCSP, you can run them with no additional work, which we do now.

Would the same thing work with God of War Origins Collection or Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker HD?

[TheDax]

As far as I know, those are actual ports. If you have a PS3 with CFW, though, you can look at the games' files to see if it contains an EBOOT.PBP; if it does, it likely runs in the PSP emulator.
