Have you ever wanted to play a 2-player PS1 game on your PSP with your friend without having to setup RemoteJoy? Are you looking for a way to do it wirelessly on two PSPs? Then you've come to the right place! This tutorial will teach you how to install IRShell, enable Popsloader in IRShell, and how to enable PS1 over Ad-Hoc in IRShell.
---Requirements---
For IRShell
1 PSP with CFW or HEN w/ CFWe 3.50 or lower
1 Memstick with at least 40mb free space
For PS1 Over Ad-Hoc
2 PSPs with CFW (if you have HEN w/ CFWe 3.50 or lower, then you have to install this patch by bosshunter: viewtopic.php?f=66&t=3280
2 Memsticks with IRShell, POPSLoader, and the same PS1 game on them
A Friend to play with
---Installing IRShell---
1. Download IRShell
Get the latest IRShell from here: http://irshell.org/site/
IRShell 5.0 does work on Phats also (you just don't get the multitasking feature )
If you have a TA-088v3 or a PSP-3000, you'll also need these:
2. Extract IRShell from the ZIP file
3. In the "pspirshell50" folder should be an "IRSHELL" folder, drag that folder onto your memstick
4. In the "pspirshell50" folder, there should be a "PSP" folder, enter it, inside "PSP" should be "GAME" and "GAME150", enter "GAME", inside "GAME" should be "irshell2x3x", this goes in "X:/PSP/GAME/" where X = your memstick drive letter
5. Your memstick should look like this (X = your PSP Drive letter):
X
--IRSHELL
--PSP
----GAME
------irshell2x3x
--------EBOOT.PBP
FROM THIS POINT ON, IF YOU HAVE A HACKABLE PSP FOLLOW #A STEPS, IF YOU HAVE A TA-088v3 OR A PSP-3000 FOLLOW #B STEPS, IF YOU FOLLOW THE WRONG STEPS YOU COULD BRICK YOUR PSP

---Installing Popsloader---
Follow this tut by skrape to install popsloader (this also works on hackable PSPs): viewtopic.php?f=66&t=3281
---Enabling Popsloader In IRShell---
1. Launch IRShell
2. Go into the Configurator
3. Find the option labeled "POP Ver:"
4. Change it to "Use Popsloader Plugin" and save by pressing "O"
5. Popsloader now works in IRShell!
---Enabling PS1 Over Ad-Hoc---
1. Launch IRShell
2. Go into the Configurator
3. Find the option labeled "POP 2 Player Support:"
4. Change it to "Adhoc WiFi" and save by pressing "O"
5. Repeat on your friend's PSP
6. Launch your PS1 game (make sure your WLan switch is ON)
7. If you get a "Adhoc WiFi not supported for" error, try using an earlier version of POPS
8. If everything goes right, you should see this:
9. Once you and your friend have the screen from step 8, you should see each other listed on the screen, select each other and have fun!
NOTE: The 2-Player Ad-Hoc feature in IRShell is not perfect, so don't expect it to be, it is possible for both you and your friend to win the exact same race in Gran Turismo because of the lag (this happened to me ).
