I know there are about 5 people working independently to achieve the same goal, for various reasons.

It’s just a matter of time before something gives.

But that length of time is indeterminate.

I have a feeling it would speed up if there was a bounty.


In your opinion will these 5 people be working on 6.20 or will those of us on the latest (7 whatever) be looked after too

It ranges: 5.50/6.20/7.00 seem to be the main versions.

Some are also working on firmware agnostic vectors to bring new solutions.

I would bet on 5.5x before anything else, 6.2x if we are lucky, 7.xx when several higher versions exist to prevent online haxxing.

If I was really really bored, I would test RowHammer for PS4's GDDR5. ^__^;

Unfortunately, I think I've read somewhere that Javascript doesn't offer precise timers anymore — to avoid fingerprinting for privacy reasons — so WebKit exploit would still be necessary...

Interesting, I’ve just been reading up on this, we must be able to write our own timers for better granularity? Idk.

No one ever answered.

There was also nethammer, and throwhammer, but not sure how useful they could be either. If they rely on JIT it would be a pretty solid: nope.

Get it to work straight from the browser would be asking too much in my opinion, but I wouldn't mind to use it to escalate privileges...

That’s all we have publicly right now :(

Potentially we also have older Webmaf apps, and I have heard of a zero day USB based attack, which also hasn’t been patched yet.

    If your internet speeds are fast enough. Streaming 4k takes alot. I used to only have 20mb sec, and 4k struggled. Now I have 300mb sec and 4k plays fine.

    I bet @AncientBoi has some hamsters hidden somewhere tho....

    I think Game streaming should work like this.... Local Hardware able the run the game fine, game engine and common assets stored locally, all FMV and music and textures could be streaming

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Some temporary storage
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    also @BigOnYa im making some progress on my gdevelop project, implemented various mechanics
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They went all in on streaming, should have been more of a hybrid approach

    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa, although the bullets are a bit buggy

    Not to mention this would be a massive pain to pirate

    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player.X(PlayerDirection)

    im taking a break for today anyway

    YEa gotta after a while, looking at code for long periods will bug your eyes.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    That's cool tho, I'm proud of you going back to it, not giving up. It is difficult at first to learn, but fun once you get the hang of it. I think I've watched every tutorial video there is, but I still struggle sometimes to get stuff to work right. But gotta keep trying dif things, and eventually you will get it right.
