You think mythos can find new vulnerabilities ?

I wouldn't count on it as it is not publicly available. Until independent individuals can verify that it is as powerful as claimed, you should not read too much into it. It's still based on machine learning, the limitations of which are well-explored by now.

Did you use automation to recursively change the case to lower? there must be 1000's of files to process?

i'm curious, what are all the alternatives? Can any of them take a game such as Doom or Forza and automatically create the backports? Those two were examples for gsmes which were problemstic as was StarWars Outlaws.

I used Total Commander, it renamed all files in like, 5 seconds. Go to media folder, press Ctrl-B, Ctrl-A, Ctrl-M, select "all lowercase", press start button. Done.

But you can use windows powershell or command prompt. Type a single line script and it's done too.

Is there a list what Games work on Internal storage on my Pro 9.05,need more space on my external drives

Adam512 · Apr 25, 2026

From what I've seen, some people have and some don't have this 30-day version even on the latest FW 13.20... I don't know for sure why this is the case, maybe there are different rules for regions and we just need to use a VPN?

Voidshell keeps crashing on my PS5 forcing me to reformat the NVME SSD. How can I use this hack without having to repair and reinstall all my games? This is making my moddable ps5 look like a POS.

Actually the last hack I loaded was etaHen 2.5B but voidshell also causes problems such as freezing in the middle of copying a game.

Guys, what folder on the internal NVME should I be putting games in so that when it needs to scan the NVME drive it doesn't force a format? thanks

Pulling this move on EU territory would get them fined to hell for breaking consumer laws. Perfect timing right after the Stop Killing Games initiative has been heard in the EU parliament.

I was talking to Sonic earlier, about Yuzu and more: in short Linux is a very exciting prospect to me!

I may actually use it!

Are you using an autoloader? When is it crashing, and if you are using one, what does the config look like?

Also yeah can anyone confirm if this is the case in other countries in the EU or outside of the US? Maybe it's not just related to use of a DNS to block it or not, this might also be a thing with the youtube and Netflix apps being removed, as some people say they are missing, and others say they are still available even on latest firmware.

I'm just using shadowmount in etahen 2.5B as far as I understand. where would I grab the config from? data folder on the main drive? where are you guys storing your games on the nvme, in the root? I'm putting them in the root which might be the wrong place

I'm sure Sony can also say, hey this game allows individuals to play games which they haven't purchased themselves aka Piracy... there is no getting away from that argument... the EU will side on Sony's side. Worse case, Sony refunds everyone and game is permanently disabled... At the end of the day playing games, via a jailbreak of the console, which you have not purchased/rented is copyright theft. Plain and simple....

v1.5.1 — Bug Fixes

Fixed: False "Build failed" dialog on non-English Windows

Builds were showing "Item failed" even when the image was created
successfully. This happened because PowerShell exits with code 1 on
Spanish, French and other non-English Windows installs even after a
successful run. The batch script now treats exit codes 0–7 as success,
matching robocopy's convention. Your image was always fine — the dialog
was wrong.

Fixed: Builds fail when game folder is on a network share (NAS/UNC)

Game folders on network paths like TRUENAS share or NAS games
now work correctly. The old cmd path checks don't support UNC paths
they're now replaced with PowerShell Test-Path which handles network
shares natively. No need to map a drive letter anymore. (please test if possible)

Fixed: Custom OSFMount path not passed to build script

If you set a custom OSFMount location in Settings, it was used for
pre-build checks but not forwarded to the PowerShell build script itself,
causing "osfmount.com not found" errors during the build. The path is
now passed through the full pipeline: Settings → Python → BAT → PS1.

Fixed: App still shows "Recent:" dropdown in Build tab

Removed the Recent folders dropdown from the Build tab as intended.
Recently used folders are still tracked internally.

Other

Tutorial guide button added to Help tab — opens tutorial.html if
placed next to the exe
Force Dismount button moved next to Build All for easier access
Post-build dismount safety net — retries up to 8 seconds after build
script exits to ensure the drive letter is fully released

In my opinion, there is no need to argue with any JB, from a legal point of view this is a legitimate form of intellectual property protection that the user agrees to by purchasing a service/product.

Although this is legal, some organizations and consumers argue that this limits the user's property rights, especially if the service disappears in the future.

-----

I've heard several versions.. One version is that it's a bug when sony fixing the exploit (in my opinion, it's definitely not a bug but a targeted action)...

another version is that it's only for new purchases of games, that people who bought the game in the past shouldn't have this restriction...

another version is that it's for all games, that it doesn't show up for some, but after 30 days the game stops working...

we'll see how it turns out, I'm personally not a supporter of the always online feature

Post automatically merged: Apr 25, 2026

It's all similar to the always online feature on Xbox One, which they ultimately didn't implement due to strong negative feedback.

This is very bad. I am hugely disappointed - official content preservation has been made non-existent.
