    i want to cool the ps4 in the summer

    I'd recommend something to lift PS4 off the ground to help passively dissipate heat. This made a significant drop in temp and fans having to ramp up on my PS4 Pro. See this post: https://gbatemp.net/threads/best-exhaust-fan-attachment-to-ps4-slim.607017/#post-9737155

    Best exhaust fan attachment to PS4 Slim?

    So I noticed my PS4 Pro fans were having to ramp up a lot with a couple of games. I started to look into getting some supplemental fan cooling but in the end decided against it. Here is an Amazon review for one of the cooling systems where reviewer used a heat gun and determined that the fans...

    Homebrew Official Retroarch WiiU (wip.)

    @ Ahhh that makes a lot of sense. I have some background in reverse engineering / programming but never in emulation / console space. I'll do some additional testing and gather details to open a bug report. My bad. I was thinking LowRes equated to low resolution. I see now it's a different core.

    Homebrew Official Retroarch WiiU (wip.)

    I think I noticed this with the 12/10/21 nightly in Battletoads Arcade using Final Burn Neo core. No audio and parts of the title graphics like the names of each character were blurry. Simpsons and TMNT worked great so not all arcade games.

    Homebrew Official Retroarch WiiU (wip.)

    I figured out my issue. If anyone else is running into a constant black screen for a brand new install of RetroArch and you use macOS, the issue is with all the trash macOS puts on the SD card. I'd recommend using BlueHarvest or a Windows system to delete all the hidden files created by...

    Homebrew Official Retroarch WiiU (wip.)

    Does anyone have a suggestion for black screen when attempting to load RetroArch? This is my first time trying to get it working. My WiiU is using CBHC and latest WiiU OS version, no other issues. Things I've tried that all result in a black screen: * Using yesterday and today's nightly...

    Hacking Is it possible to update legit disc games offline?

    For those that may run into this same situation I figured I'd post an update. I finally got some disc games and confirmed the updates didn't require newer firmware. I had to set up a PSN account but I was able to prevent the latest firmware from being downloaded. Once the updates finish...

    Hacking Is it possible to update legit disc games offline?

    Very interesting, appreciate the responses! Does anyone happen to know if the PS4 utilizes certificate pinning? Once the game discs arrive, I'll do some testing on local network. I run network monitor / DNS server from Raspi so one thought was to try and do some selective sync holing.

    Hacking Is it possible to update legit disc games offline?

    I recently picked up a PS4 Pro that I'm keeping offline in the hopes that an 8.0 exploit eventually drops. I've picked up a couple single player game discs to play in the interim. Using Orbis Patches site I see there are some updates that require lower firmware than 8.0 that I'm on. Is it...

    Misc Account with Netflix anyone?

    You can use FunKii to grab the Netflix app with title id: 0005000010105A00. I've seen it tagged as region EU/JP but the app is in English. I was curious so I grabbed it and WUP installed fine and was in English. I didn't sign in but I don't see why that wouldn't work. Just FYI the service will...
