User guide
Note from developer:
Do not flash this plugin erasing M33 satelite.prx. In this case Alternative VSHMenu does not work.
The Homebrew-Flasher used in this version is still a beta so use it only at your own risk. If you want to use the old method to flash the plugin, please follow the guide inserted in Patch2Flash folder.
In this version language translation are included in the plugin, so the PRX file size has been increased: for this reason, if you want to flash it, be sure to have the need free space in your Flash0 before beginning the flashing process.
By default the Select button will be associated to a homebrew, so place one in /PSP/GAME/HOMEBREW/ directory, or disable/change that option.
If you press Select when it is associated to a homebrew but no homebrew is in /PSP/GAME/HOMEBREW/ directory PSP will freeze.

Changelog
v6.1
- Fixed a bug that disabled the first plugin in VSH.txt when you exit from the VSHMenu.
v6.0
- Added FIVE new background colours
- Now Alternative VSHMenu can not be started before of 3 seconds: in this way you can avoid console crashes when you accidentally start it during coldboot or returning from games.
- Now there will be a pause of about one second when you exit from A. VSHMenu: in this way your key pressing will not have any effect on XMB (like happened in past).

- Erased all difference of code between CF 3.90/3.95GEN/4.01M33: now plugin will be the same in all CFs.
- Added a homebrew-flasher for the plugin: it will flash the Alternative VSHMenu in your Flash0 directly from PSP without other steps.
