How to play dungeons and dragons: shadow over mysteria on your PSP

please do not read this if you do not play psp.

My system is

Running on 3.80 M33-2,
Patched with 1.50 kernel add-on for 3.80 M33.

You need these files:

1. Dungeons & Dragons: Shadow over Mystara (Euro 960619) game file. Download here: http://www.romnation.net/srv/roms/55869/mame103/Dungeons-Dragons-Shadow-over-Mystara-Euro-960619.html

2. Capcom’s CPS2PSP emulator. Find here (in text link):

Download according to your PSP Fat or Slim.

Okay now you are ready. Do not change any file names. Follow these steps.

1. Unzip 14774_cps2psp_2.2.1a_adhoc_for_3x_FAT.zip file.
2. You will find 2 folders inside. Copy the whole folder cps2psp to your D:/PSP/GAME150 folder. (where D: indicates your memory stick)
3. Open the other folder “romcnv” and double-click on “romcnv_cps2.exe”. It will prompt you to process a file. Go to and choose your game file “ddsom.zip”
4. You will find a folder called “cache” created in folder “romcnv”. Inside is a file called “ddsom.cache”.
5. Place the whole folder “cache” into D:/PSP/GAME150/cps2psp. Else just place “ddsom.cache” into a folder called “CACHE” you can create in D:/PSP/GAME150/cps2psp.
6. There should be a folder called “roms” in your memory stick, folder cps2psp location D:/PSP/GAME150/cps2psp. Place your game file “ddsom.zip” in this folder “roms”.

Now you can select the emulator in your usual games section and play it.
