Hacking Hackable PS3 models and information

[rantex92]

I transferred to the internal HHD and still won't load. Says something about not recognized.

are they just plain isos or did you go the ps2classic route ?

how did you name the intern hdd folder "ps2" or "ps2iso" ?

is it a ps2 dvd game or ps2 cd game if its a cd game those will go in the ps1 folder instead of ps2 or they wont get recognised

PS2ISO.

Multiman converted it to a PS2 Classic, yet it wouldn't play for some reason.

Getting files to play sure ain't as easy as PS2/PS4.

if you're using cobra/cfw, you need ps2 games on the internal hdd. make sure cobra is enabled then launch the game. one sec, I'm on 4.89, I'll see if a ps2 game works for me. alright, no issues:

What do you mean with Cobra enabled?

I'm using Evilnat 4.88.2 which has Cobra (going by the original notes), but I'm not sure how it works. Still getting used to it.

 

[godreborn]

if you're using multiman, switch to cobra (mmcm). I forgot how to do that though, considering I use webman mod and have been for like 8+ years.

ive read at least 10 times on different sites that webman can mount isos from external and you dont need to convert the ps2 isos to ps2 classics etc

i hate that theres conflicting information out there its very confusing

 

[godreborn]

Not ps2 isos. They have to be on internal.

Surprised there's no 4.89 CFW yet, but there'll be.

I'm on 4.88 Evilnat and satisfied with it. I don't see any point upgrading to 4.89, anyway.

There's an evilnat 4.89.

Oh, I was reading a thread of CFW for 4.89 at PSX-Place. That created confusion.

Turns out the solution to play PS2 games was super easy all along, just was not aware of it.



If you already have Apollo installed, activate your PS3 account, restart, and then it works. That simple.

Even easier on CFW.

 

[Marc_LFD]

Yeah. CFW is much nicer.

No need to open HEN, and runs unlocked from the get-go.

By the way, is there a way to hide PSN/Messages from the XMB? Or replace with something else?

The psn tier or do you mean the place near the clock?

The two last XMB icons - PSN & Friends

Kinda pointless to have it there, tbh.

This is fairly easy, so I'll keep it short. You need the xmb_plugin_normal.rco and the xmb_ingame.rco. Grab each from your dev_blind.

Then, extract with rco mage. After that, go into the main xml file, and delete the tiers you don't want from Object Tree/Page name/XMenu name/XMList name. After that's done, scroll to XMenu - menus: "0xa." Now, change that to reflect how many tiers you want. "0xa" = 10; "0x5" = 5. It's that simple.

Hi.

Is there a way to run Linux/OtherOS via 4.88 CFW?

I'm very happy with my PS3 now and getting used to move files around here and there was easy to get used to.
