missyhud.prx

Long time ago, when I was a little kid, I used to play a lot of games on my PSP. In my time at the university I abandoned it in my office drawer. Years later, as part of the Glorious PC Gaming Master Race, a HUD is something always necessary for me. Not long ago, my PSP was reborn from the ashes, and I haven't found a plugin that meets my metric needs. Here it is.

missyhud.prx is a plugin to display a simple HUD.

Known issues and doubts

  • According to the PSPSDK documentation, sceKernelTotalFreeMemSize returns a different value than pspSdkTotalFreeUserMemSize
  • The FPS indicator does not work with double buffering. Follow-up on this issue is ongoing.
