Game Categories Plugin is a plugin that allows you to categorize your game menu and keep it more organized. Developed by Bubbletune, it only works with firmwares prior to 5.00 and was updated till version 3.

The 4th revision was fully rewritten and renamed to Game Categories Revised, which is intented for newer firmwares (though it is still generally referred as Game Categories).

Installation

Copy game_categories.prx and vsh.txt to the seplugins folder, if you already have a vsh.txt, modify it instead of copying the included one.

Enable the plugin in the Recovery menu.

Create folders prefixed with CAT_ in the GAME, GAME150, GAME5XX or ISO folder.

Fill them with everything you want to appear for that specific category (if you have the same category name in two or more folders they will be mixed).

Keep the Sony file length limitations in mind, due to the name of the category being added to the total length, the length of each filename will increase even more. If a corrupt icon shows up, try lowering the length of the filename.

Boot your PSP, open vshmenu and select the appropriate category (a new option will be added by the plugin, this will happen seamlessly and everything should keep working).

User guide

If you change category while currently in the game menu, it will automatically leave the game menu and recache the directory.

A Show all and Uncategorized option are available in case you need them.

Compatibility

A PSP with 5.00 M33-3/M33-4 or prior.

Changelog

  • Added support for the Custom Firmware 5.00 M33-4.

Game Categories Plugin v2

  • Solved bug of some sections not working while a category was selected.
  • Solved bug of the PSP crashing when pressing X on a category in the vshmenu.
