FanFiction.Net Browser is a PSP browser for the website FanFiction.Net written by Criptych.

It was featured in the PSP Genesis Competition 2011 (Apps).

Features

  • Browse fanfiction by category.
  • Search by author name or story title/summary.
  • View category and author feeds.
  • Read stories with basic formatting (bold, italic, underline).

User guide

To customize splash image, replace file SPLASH.JPG in the folder containing EBOOT.PBP.

Note: The lastest version 1.0a has been signed and shrinked by the author.

Controls

D-Pad Up/Down - Move Up/Down one line

D-Pad Left/Right - Move Up/Down one screen, To the Top/Bottom (for lists)

Start/Select - Not assigned

Known issues

Screen flickers sometimes, especially in system dialogs - in extreme cases may black out every other keypress (seems to be a vsync problem).

Strings with non-Latin characters contain glitches (should be blank).

New bug in the Categories view: Using L/R Trigger to skip to Previous/Next letter does not scroll properly if the new selection is offscreen.
