My Post was:
I ripped my ps3 games (portal2/bournout paradise) to my ps3's hard disk and played them with no problem from multiman and they were showing up like a real disk. A long time this was working fine, but for some reason now the games are showing up in the folder (/app_home/) above the package installer in the XMB and no longer showing up as a "real" disk. This is a problem for me because portal2 and burnout paradise are only working if the "real" disk is inserted and if I load them up via the folder, portal2 gave me a yellow triangle on boot and burnout is stuck at the loading screen.

SOLUTION:
I was playing around with the rebug toolbox and found a solution.
All I had to do was enabling the cobra mode in the tolbox and now the disc is showing up as it was before.

NOTE:
I don't know why this is working or what cobra mode is but it's working.

Yeah but the problem is I can't find a patch on the internet all downloads I found were all brocken cause they are from 2011
Unfortunately my PS3 and HDD for it are in storage.... I will try have a look see if I can work it out and I will reply back if successful.

Have you tried maybe reinstalling your firmware and multiman. Sounds like something may have gotten corrupted. Are these the only two games that don't work? Do you have other games you could try and see if the problem persists.

IIRC it was a known issue with certain games, from higher fw working on lower CFW.

@Aladie what CFW you running?

I'm on 4.82 Rebug with 4.82.1 Cobra.
And yes these are the only games wich don't work(but they were working before) all the other games are working fine.

I don't have burnout but I do have portal 2 and I'm also on 4.82 and no issues here. Maybe try dumping the games again or just for the heck of it try reinstalling rebug to see if it helps. Any chance you've tried loading the games via webman rather then multiman to see if they work? Multiman hasn't worked properly for me since I installed rebug 4.82 on my system and only sees one of my network games where webman works perfectly.

The fun times of BD emulation. I've accidentally loaded my entire library of games as 1 mega disc before lol

Have you tried re-enabling the BD emulation in multiman? Sometimes it has hiccups and screws up. Also make sure that the backup has it selected in the menu that you can get into for a specific game (This might have changed idk.) I havent used my old ps3 in so long.

Even selecting it in the game settings itself did not work? Do you have a disc in the ps3??? lol Sorry I gotta ask.
If you do have a disc in the ps3, then I would try reinstalling multiman or redumping your game.

I have no disk in my ps3 and yes I tried everything in the game settings, but it did not work. In the next days I will reinstall everything on my ps3 and look if it works.

Well dude, stick a random disc in and load up portal 2... You need a disc in the tray for it to work. any ps3 disc

I thought it was a pain at first to have to have a random ps3 disc in there, but I just used a terrible game as the base for all of my backups.

@Aladie I hope thats the issue lol If not then idk what is

It needs a disc to mount over I believe. Not any other choice other than the folder loading but I dont trust that if you are going online.

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    but that's a long shot

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
