PS3 CFW 4.89.3 Evilnat Cobra (8.4) (CEX/DEX/PEX) -

[STLcardsWS]

@Evilnat did you see zecoxao's tweet? Metldr2 can run Linux now?

You have quite the obsession with metldr2 haha, but i have to ask to stop hijacking the various threads you have that are unrelated to it.

Also i think you have taken many of @zecoxao tweets out of context. If you want to know about these things start a new thread and keep the talk about it contained to that thread. I think the goal for @zecoxao and other devs he is working with is to try an approach using linux to try and crack metldr2, but to even try that theory they need to get PS3HEN to run Linux. That is how i understood it last. Which i could be wrong myself, Anyhow this chatter is not for this thread. Start a new thread in the future.

Ehh that was the sexiest PS3 look ever...

Yes but i didn't see any mod with this theme

Yes but i didn't see any mod with this theme

Ultimate Toolbox has many waves. I think that one is included.
The tool is not fully compatible with 4.89 but you can extract and install the lines.qrc from the package.

I can provide the original coldboot, gameboot and lines from the pre 3.00 version.

works well in 4.90?

Didn't test it, but they should work properly as coldboot, gameboot and lines were not affected by Sony's awful, untested layout changes.

Lines affects just the background theme right?

btw if someone wants the modern "Sony Interactive Entertainment" instead of the classic "Sony Computer Entertainment" at boot i have a custom rco for that.

Yes, lines.qrc work well on 4.90. I tested the original uploaded by GuilloteTesla: it shows a black background, but waves change color depending of the time.

Today it has a green tone (it is more noticeable on the TV)

@Evilnat

I would like to request open_path (debug payload) improvements suggested by @DeViL303 and implemented by @bguerville in future updates

Updated to stat in open_path_hook for DEBUG · PS3Xploit/PS3HEN@826f25c (github.com)
Updated to stat paths in open_path_hook · PS3Xploit/PS3HEN@4727920 (github.com)

and map_paths also by @bguerville, idk which method is better as you're using some suggestions and improvements by @aldostools, but it solved some issues on HEN

Final map_path changes (thanks bguerville) · PS3Xploit/PS3HEN@8791620 (github.com)

There you go. You have to delete coldboot.raf for it to properly work. Otherwise you get overlapping logos.
Make a backup of both before you proceed!

@Evilnat

Thanks for your firmware releases, you are Ps3 Legend!
isn't it better to make 4.90 available as an open beta? So there are many more testers and errors can be fixed faster?

It will be out of beta sooner than you may think. Don't worry about it.

@aldostools @Evilnat another feature to include in 4.90 cfw is the lsd/sbi for this "new" libcrypt disc:
http://redump.org/disc/99695
http://redump.org/disc/99695/sbi
http://redump.org/disc/99695/lsd
@aldostools you should update also your online database, maybe it's safer to refresh every lsd/sbi redownloading the whole package from redump (consider that subchannels don't have error correction codes, so maybe some file could differ)

Thank you for your feedback. I have checked these "new" files and they were already in the database.
I didn't notice any change in the content of the files.

https://github.com/aldostools/webMAN-MOD/blob/master/_Projects_/libcrypt/Cochons de Guerre, Les (France).lsd

In fact the lsd file for the title doesn't differ from the previous revision of "Les Cochons de Guerre", but sbi and lsd are missing in your online database at the following locations:

https://github.com/aldostools/webMAN-MOD/tree/master/_Projects_/libcrypt
https://ps3.aldostools.org/lsd.html
https://ps3.aldostools.org/sbi.html

I suggest you to add these so called files to your list:

Cochons de Guerre, Les (France) (Rev 1).sbi
Cochons de Guerre, Les (France) (Rev 1).lsd

Maybe (depending on how your project injects suchannel data to optical disc emulation) SLES_027.66.lsd, already existing and crc matching the file with the same internal serial, is enough to pass LC check. I'm not part of the scene and I don't know how does it work.
