IGR Behaviour Modifiers :

POPStarter has his own IGR ( Select + R1 + L1 ). You can change the button combo using one PATCH/TROJAN of the IGR behaviour modifiers archive – or just use a special command for it in POPS/CHEATS.TXT or POPS/GAME/CHEATS.TXT.

File name Button combo Action
TROJAN_0.BIN L1 + L2 + R1 + R2 + ✕ + ↓ Opens the IGR menu.
TROJAN_1.BIN Select + Start Opens the IGR menu.
TROJAN_2.BIN L1 + L2 + R1 + R2 + Select + Start Opens the IGR menu.
TROJAN_3.BIN L1 + L2 + R1 + R2 + ✕ + ↓ Terminates POPS (no IGR menu).
TROJAN_4.BIN Select + Start Terminates POPS (no IGR menu).
TROJAN_5.BIN L1 + L2 + R1 + R2 + Select + Start Terminates POPS (no IGR menu).
PATCH_0.BIN (none) Disables the IGR menu.

Copy one of the PATCH/TROJAN files to the VMC game folder or to the POPS folder.

When copied to a VMC game folder, it’s used on the relative game only.

When copied to the POPS folder, it’s used on all the installed games.

  1. Change the number in the name of the file you want to copy ;

  2. Open the file you want to copy with a hexadecimal editor, change the number in its header according to the one of the new file name ;

  3. And finally copy the edited file.

POPStarter will refuse to load the PATCH/TROJAN file if the number in its filename doesn’t match the number in its header.


IGR Textures:

POPStarter has a built-in IGR loader texture making you able to change the japanese IGR screen with one of your language. Just drop the “IGR_BG.TM2”, “IGR_NO.TM2” and “IGR_YES.TM2” files into your POPS folder.

Example :

__common/POPS/IGR_BG.TM2
__common/POPS/IGR_NO.TM2
__common/POPS/IGR_YES.TM2

Note : .TM2 extension MUST be UPPERCASE for internal HDD – or it won’t work.

Some IGR textures made by the guys @ASSEMbler. Kudos to them. Credits go to their original authors.

“Exit to [name of app]” function :

POPStarter has a built-in launcher added to the in-game reset function. It looks for mc0:/BOOT/BOOT.ELF then mc1:/BOOT/BOOT.ELF. If not found/invalid, it exits to the PS2 browser.

If you want to exit game to some app (uLE_kHn for example), name it BOOT.ELF and place it in the BOOT folder of your memory card.
