missyhud.prx is a plugin to display a simple HUD (named after the author's cat).

Features

Stupidly simple black UI (yes, the best one).
- Cycle position (START + Analog left/right).
Compatible with VSH, GAME and POPS.
RAM usage indicator.
Power percentage indicator.
- Duration minutes.
- Charging detection.
- No battery detection.
CPU indicators:
- CPU Usage.
- CPU clock speed.
- BUS clock speed.
FPS indicator.
Key combination to turn on and off (Hold L + R + Start for 1 second).

Installation

Download the latest release.

Place missyhud.prx into:

ms0:/seplugins/ for PSP 1000, 2000, 3000 and Street
ef0:/seplugins/ for PSP Go

Open (or create) game.txt, vsh.txt and/or pop.txt in the seplugins folder, then add the following path to the test files.

For PSP 1000, 2000, 3000 and Street

ms0:/seplugins/missyhud.prx 1

For PSP Go

ef0:/seplugins/missyhud.prx 1

Screenshots

Known issues

According to the PSPSDK documentation, sceKernelTotalFreeMemSize returns a different value than pspSdkTotalFreeUserMemSize
The FPS indicator does not work with double buffering. Follow-up on this issue is ongoing.

Changelog

v0.6 2024/10/23

Implemented position cycling by using START + Analog left/right.
Fixed PSP Go battery life indicator.
- The PSP Go battery circuit is different from older models. It doesn't contain a controller to have the exact current state of the battery capacity.
- High, Medium and Low values replaced the percentage approach for this model.
- Implemented isPSPGo utility function, checking for Tachyon version 0x00720000 and 0x00810000.

v0.5 2024/06/07

Implemented Globals structure containing all shared project variables.
The declaration of Globals fields is done in their respective threads.
Defined macros to improve readability.
Improved getFPS function by removing overhead.
Implemented getCpuUsage and printCpuIndicators.
- getCpuUsage implementation thanks to darko79.

v0.4 2024/06/06

Improved getFps function by changing sceKernelGetSystemTime with sceKernelGetSystemTimeLow (reduced overhead).
Implemented key combo (L + R + Start) to show/hide the HUD.
The plugin logic was separated into three different threads.
- missyhud_worker_thread is in charge of system calls and computations.
- missyhud_gui_thread is in charge of drawing the HUD.
- missyhud_control_thread is in charge of reading user input.

v0.3 2024/06/04

Implemented printFps to get the actual frame-rate by hooking sceDisplaySetFrameBuf to increment fps_counter.
- hook.c implementation thanks to Alexander "Raphael" Berl.
- getFps implementation thanks to darko79.

v0.2 2024/06/04

scePowerGetBatteryLifePercent crash the PSP when waking up from standby. Replaced it by manually calculating the remaining capacity percentage.
Added scePowerIsBatteryExist in printPowerInfo.

v0.1 2024/06/04

Showing CPU/BUS frequencies with printCpuBusFrequencies.
Showing Power information with printPowerInfo.
Showing Memory usage with printMemoryUsage.
