3. Custom EBOOT Art
Tired of the default icon? Use PSX2PSP to inject custom images: psp resident evil 2 eboot install
- ICON0.PNG: 144x80 (shows in XMB).
- PIC1.PNG: 480x272 (background when game is selected).
- SND0.AT3: A 3-second audio clip (the save room theme, perhaps).
Software & Files
- Custom Firmware (CFW): The PSP must run CFW (e.g., PRO-C, LME, or ARK-4). Without CFW, you cannot run unsigned EBOOTs.
- PSP EBOOT Converter (PC program): Popular options include PSX2PSP (v1.4.2 is the gold standard) or Popstation GUI.
- Resident Evil 2 Disc Images: You need either:
- A legitimate PS1 .bin/.cue or .iso of Resident Evil 2 (Disc 1: Leon, Disc 2: Claire – or the reverse depending on region).
- Or, a pre-converted EBOOT.PBP from a reputable archive. (We’ll discuss legal sourcing.)
- Base POPs Module (optional for advanced users): Files like
popsloader.prxto change POPS versions for glitchy games.
