Playstation classic

ESC and you get tonthe menu.

I did some testing of my own with controllers, dualshock 3 will let you move arround but buttons won't work. Intried the PS classic controller on a PS3 to see how it'd work turn abd it works but all buttons are mapped wrong, so using a Dualshovk could be as easy as remapping the buttons.

Paying someone to process requests would be pointless. It doesn't gain them anything at all.

pff, a trainee costs practically nothing. Surely they must have a trainee sitting arround somewhere who can handle this. How many requests for the source would Sony really get, tbh? Plus, they could take their sweet time

I doubt that they will leave PR business to trainee. I think they don't have any trainees. They can train in other companies and than come to Sony.

I dont get it.. i tested some of my keyboards. One has been recognized cause i had the mouse corner on the upper left. On booting it showed a loading icon.. but ingame it doesnt work. Tryed to press escape and other combinations. Only once it went to the savegame loader.

It looks anyway like the keyboard needs to be hooked up at boot.. did anyone had more luck?

Maybe its a powerdraw thing. does anyone have a Y type usb cord that separates power and data

Its not, i tested it.

So far its only corsair k70 models that do the trick. as far as i know.
It may be a red haring as the serial ports were looking promising till all this crazy happened.
I can only keep my ear to the ground. I cant tell people who are actually working what to look into. but heaving everyone run out and buy $170 keyboards seems kinda silly. unless we can isolate the output or why their any different.

Anyone tried to connect via power cable on PC not via controllers? I would try same stuff like on NES mini, holding buttons and feel mode etc... Just guessing.

Since we talking about keyboards how PS3 addon keyboard sounds?

MutantMecha · Dec 4, 2018

That was like the first thing we tried. Sony has implemented a check to see if data is being used.
If it detects data it flashes red and wont turn on. You cannot power this thru a laptop usb port.
I dunno how to detect a fel mode but im sure people have looked into all that.
I wish i took the arduino pi skill tree rn lol.

Uploading it onto the web site is still cheaper, there are no downsides to it.

When you hook up the ps classic on a windows pc and connect the big solderpoint with 2 wires or with a tool, it will be recognized as a tp link fastboot device and a yocto device

TonyBiH · Dec 4, 2018

Maybe it could be second controller trick. Left original controller plugged while you connect with second to pc? Konami reset with L2+L1 R2+R1 Start and select. I'm desperate.

I'm almost sure that Cluster will help us if someone send him copy of PlayStation Classic.

Thanks for confirming that. Im going to bum a lift to ye old hardware shope to grab some wire striping tools and a dummy plug tomorrow and make myself a port. Functionally useless till we get a bootloader but itll happen i have faith.

Tony people are working on it. I think its at the top of the community's bucket list right now. Modders are very secretive they like to keep their cards close to their vest. I'm sure its being prodded at in a discord chat somewhere. This will take more time then people thought be patient you don't wanna rush into a faulty payload.

Just to mentioned this works without soldering by using the power usb port.

Wait do you mean these test points by any chance i thought you were talking the serial port.
That's kinda nuts if that's the case.
If not sorry for being the annoying guy that asks too many questions.

Yep those (only the left ones on the picture) connect the ps classic to youre pc and the led will start flashing slowly red. Then connect those points and wait till the pc installed all drivers. After that you can release the connection of the points.
