Before I updated to 13.42 I was on 12.20 w/ unpaired bd and using p2jb. Echo & sm+ were displaying trophy notes on screen

AFAIK, dump installer is similar to SM+ in that they both create a shortcut on the homescreen. SM+ does a lot more but that part is the same, I think.

I like using dump installer more than SM+, especially now that we don't need to pause kstuff, which I used to use SM+ for. I don't need to have a process that periodically scans various directories for new games; I just "install" whatever games I'm actively playing using dump installer.

I actually found that trophies weren't unlocking when using Drakmor's kstuff with SM+ but when I went back to EchoStretch's kstuff with dump installer, as soon as I loaded my save for a game I'm actively playing, all the trophies that should have been unlocked during my playthrough are now unlocked.

'especially now that we don't need to pause kstuff'

are you sure on that? xddddd

For every game? I had one game pop older trophies upon boot with SM+, but no other games have done it since. How do you get dump installer to work? I swear it never worked for me ever, it refused to install anything.

I last tried using echo's kstuff with SM+, which usually never launched games, but the latest one seems to work.
I'd love to get my old trophies to pop but figured I'd have to wait until fpkg or whatever equivalent comes along.

I've only tried one PS5 game with dump installer; I mostly play Switch and PS4 games right now.

I used the latest websrv and dumper installer from Echo's Github repos. I can't remember what version of the homebrew menu I used, or if there are different versions; I haven't changed it in a long time. I put the dump installer in /data/homebrew like it says in the github instructions. It's a folder game on an external SSD. It installed no problem when I selected dump installer from the homebrew menu and navigated to where the game folder was.

Awhile ago I was using kstuff-lite 1.07 with some version of SM+ and it worked but as soon as I updated to a new version of SM+ the one PS5 game I was playing stopped working. I had to switch to Drakmor's kstuff-lite for it to work again. But that was a few versions ago of both kstuff and SM+.

Yeah when I try the newest dump installer, I still get the same error about there being no //sce_sys folder. It doesn't tell me where or what it's trying to pull from, if it's a specific game or anything. The dump installer itself has an sce_sys folder and it only has the icon in it.
Nvm it capitalised some of the files so the homebrew wouldn't load itself. it seems to be installing dumps now.

Sadly my games aren't popping older trophies. Using dump installer now and weirdly one of my games has a lock next to the name. It runs, but once I reboot the console the icon goes corrupt and refuses to launch unless I delete and repeat the process, which results in the same thing happening again. Anyone got any ideas?

Not sure if there's a config file that needs the fs forwarder adjusted?

If you or anyone knows where such a config might be, I'd appreciate it. I'll have a look myself.

I had an errorno9 issue with another game, and I fixed that by deleting the game folder under system_ex after rebooting the console. So maybe I'll see if doing the same for this game might fix the lock issue.

Also for the people who still can't quite wrap their heads around why a little off-topic is okay, but constantly going on about it gets you yeeted, and because gamers clearly never look up...

Ed: Seems that particular game is coming up as read-only in the system_ex/app/ folder. Gonna assume that's why it shows a lock on the screen and it giving me trouble. Tried to chmod777 it but no dice, any ideas how to remove something like that?

interesting, the moderator seems that is a MacroScam Xbox fanboy.

Even though I’ve only just joined I’ve seen you post the words “Scamny” and “MacroSlop” about 50 times, I’m not sure they have the ring to them that you think they do…

But either way, use your head obviously we can’t blatantly talk about piracy in the open (for anyone who missed the post he was talking about an upcoming halo game not being on disk and wanting it to be dumped day 1) I’m sure plenty of us also feel the same way and likely even some of the mods do.

Yes Sony and Microsoft deserve to burn lol but you’ve got to be more subtle than that

https://github.com/Viktorious-x/ps5-bdjb-modified-ISOs/releases/tag/Modified-ISO23

v28

Change log:

General changes

Added automatic firmware detection
• When you enter the bdjb menu, a payload gets executed, that finds your firmware data and puts it into cache. This firmware data is used for automatic pipeline category assigment and some texts.
Added pipeline categories (Poopsploit and UMTX)
• On firmwares 7.61 and under, the UMTX pipeline category gets automatically assigned, but you can change to the Poopsploit category via pressing 1 on the Disc Player Overlay Menu (Triangle button).
• On firmwares over 7.61 (8.00-12.00) the Poopsploit category gets automatically assigned, you cannot change to the UMTX category on those firmwares, since UMTX pipelines are incompatible.
Added "Run Last Selected Pipeline" button
• When you run a pipeline, your selection gets saved into cache, on your next run you can press the "Run Last Selected Pipeline" button to choose the selection you did on your last boot.
• This saves time by not having to scroll down to select your favored pipeline each time.
Added Icon Groups
• When you first use the iso, you will have the normal icons that have been here since the release of v16 (if i remember right)
• Now, i added a second group of icons, that you can toggle back and fourth from by pressing the button 7 in the Disc Player Overlay Menu (Triangle)
• Your selection of icons gets saved in the cache, and on your next boot you will still have the icon group you chose
• For now there are only two icon groups, the normal ones and the dark theme ones. I hope you like them.
Added Payload Manager pipelines, for each pipeline category (Poopsploit and UMTX)
04.Poops-Payload-Manager.pipe
04.UMTX-Payload-Manager.pipe
Added firmware and iso version displays to the menu in the top right corner
Added delete cache button
• By pressing the button 9 in the Disc Player Overlay Menu (Triangle button), you can delete all cache (Last selected pipeline, Icon group and Firmware Data cache)
• There's no real need to use this, unless your cache is corrupted or something.
Removed BackPork from the all-in-one pipelines, since ShadowmountPlus already has BackPork included.
• This will decrease the time it takes to load the all-in-one pipelines by about 5 seconds.
Changed the title name from "Auto Jailbreak V28" to "PS5 ALL-IN-ONE BDJB ISO V28"

Payload changes

Added fwdetect.jar
• just a payload, that automatically gets the firmware data of your console, and writes it to cache.
• Gets autoloaded, if no firmware data is found in cache on boot..
Updated Ps5-Linux-Loader by TheFlow to the latest version (v2.4) with added support for the firmware 7.40
Updated ShadowMountPlus by Drakmor to the latest version (v1.6beta16)
Recompiled BDJ-HEN-Loader by @BenNoxXD (paired with etaHEN by LightningMods) with the latest SDK version, to ensure compatibility across all firmware versions
Recompiled BDJ-HEN-Loader by @BenNoxXD (paired with kstuff by @EchoStretch) with the latest SDK version, to ensure compatibility across all firmware versions
Recompiled CloseDiscPlayer by @BenNoxXDwith the latest SDK version, to ensure compatibility across all firmware versions
Added message to Poopsploit payload, in a place where the log sometimes freezes.

D_r creates game data in the specific game folder. Fs is data/game/title id/ not sure how accurate I did a search for "d_r file creation fs location"
