[Grxngo9]

[sameeralam009]

Stay tuned here to see when the 4.88 HFW will be out =)

Just don't update to OFW 4.88.

I honestly believe I was the first person to discover this new firmware :')

 

[Nosdio]

Anybody know what is the difference from 4.87. In 4.87 they have significantly improved BC models with partial emualtion performance (PAL CECHC/COK-02). Is there any chance they could have mess up with that?

 

[DeViL303]

Nothing has really changed since like 4.70 or something. They have only been removing stuff and attempting to patch exploits since then really. PS2 compatibility on BC/Semi BC consoles has not changed for a very long time.

I downloaded the 4.88 hfw update and it was downloaded without problems, but the hen has been removed from the system, but the multiman is present but it cannot be opened
What is the solution to install Hen again
Or go back to the previous update

HEN is not yet updated for 4.88; HFW is just the exploitable firmware which allows it to be installed. You will have to wait to be able install HEN on 4.88, as the update has not been out even one day. You cannot go back to the previous firmware update.

Can you guys dumb this down so some of us who are noobs can understand

It means WAIT .... just keep an eye on this site until the developers find a fix, confirm it works, and bless it for public release

 

[esc0rtd3w]

Tested HFW on 4201A Superslim. Everything works fine so far. Mucho kudos to @zecoxao for also updating the date in text file haha

 

[BRIAN-JESHUA]

Good to know. webMAN MOD and IRISMAN should work without changes.

NOTE: IRISMAN 4.87.1 already includes MAMBA 8.4 for 4.88

irisman 4.87.1 does not work in 4.88 HFW, when starting it gives a black screen and the console freezes.
irisman 4.86.3 apparently works fine, at least it starts off correctly

 

[LuanTeles]

I updated my system, and now what can I do? Me da uma luz Luan kkk

You can just sit and relax while the Oficial HEN is beeing developed.

Devs are not robots XD

Note that errors can occur when using HEN 4.87 modified to work on 4.88. (offsets may have been changed and some homebrews needs to be updated.).

How do you know that? Is there a 4.88 CFW or a version of HEN ported for 4.88?

 

[SoJustMe]

thank you guys. $ony made people more active now

 

[esc0rtd3w]

Devs are not robots XD

offsets may have been changed

offsets are unchanged for VSH and kernel regarding exploit and HEN enabler

I am using HEN 4.87 modified to work on 4.88
webman and multiman work fine, the only bug I found was that one and I report it for your consideration
