How To Use PSVshell

• Press SELECT + UP or SELECT + DOWN to toggle between 3 GUI modes

When in 'FULL' mode

• Use UP/DOWN to move in the menu
• Press X to toggle frequency mode for currently selected > device <:
  • Default freq. (WHITE) - the plugin will not interfere, but rather use the default freq. for current game
  • Manual freq. (BLUE) - the plugin will use your specified freq.
    • press LEFT/RIGHT to immediately change the frequency
• Press X when > save profile < is selected to save/delete profiles
  • All Manual freq. (BLUE) will be loaded and applied next time you start/resume the game
  • All Default freq. (WHITE) will be kept to default (set to whatever freq. the game asks for)
• Press and hold LEFT TRIGGER and > save profile < will change to > save global <
  • Press X when > save global < is selected and the options will be saved to global (default) profile
  • Global profile will be used as default profile when game-specific profile doesn't exist

Changelog

(v.1.2-beta)

• Redone procevent checks, system apps now have each their own profile (previously all were under 'main')
• Further reduced flicker in games where the GUI still flickered in the 'Full' GUI mode (e.g. Dead Nation)
• Slightly increased GUI drawing performance
• Added support for >544p framebuffers (like the Persona 4 Golden 720p/1080p patch)

(v.1.1)

• Added battery info section (life time, percentage + indicator) to the menu
• Replaced case temp. with battery percentage in 'HUD' mode (I feel like % is more useful)
• Reordered GUI modes (it's now just one click to open up the menu)
• Default freq. is now restored when changing mode from manual to default (hopefully less people will get confused from now on)
• Added support for global (default) profile (hold LT and save)
• Adjusted CPU usage sample-rate (now refreshes every 500ms, peak is calc.ed from 10 samples)
• Fixed rare crash while 500 MHz profile was being applied

(v.1.0)

• First Release.
