How to display temperature in PS2 games on HEN?

Hello, after I tried some PKG-PS2 games on my HEN PS3 Super Slim, I found that I can't see the temperature through Webman by pressing the START+SELECT to display it.
On ISO PS3 games it works with no issue and I want to be sure that my PS3 has safe temperatures while playing PS2 games.
So, is there a way to see the temperature in PKG format PS2 games?

Many of the answers I got was that its not possible for HEN and all I can do is to set the manual fan of PS2, the fan being already set at 55% for PS2 but it feels no difference while playing a PS2 game and on XMB with the 40% manual fan speed for PS3 I can feel the difference, the fan being a bit louder.
For this I got recommended to launch the game with Webman but how exactly to do this on the PKG format installed games?

afaik, you can't. ps2 temps use a modified netemu on cfw, which is impossible with hen.

So, I guessed right but what about the running the game through Webman? Will it run on my set manual PS2 fan setting? At least this if I can't see the temperature, this way I can be sure that the PS3 is trying its best to maintain a good temperature.
 
yes, it will run at a static speed. I have mine set at 50%. noisy, yes, but 40-50% is probably prudent here.

Even with the manual fan of PS2 set at 55%, its still not working and from the answers I received, seems I have to launch the game through Webman and I don't know how to.
Tried to search at the Webman setup a way to add the PKG games to it and found nothing.

just set webman's normal fan setting to manual 40% (or whatever) and start the game from pkg icon like normal.

Do you mean that in HEN/PKG's case the PS2's fan setting is not working and it will work the normal one of the PS3?
 
btw, iirc, it's not start and select to view temps with the netemu on cfw. I think you just press the ps button like you're going to reset or exit the game, and it will be in the top corner.

Tried already to press the PS button in many ways like holding with no result, is there a more specific way?
 
works fine for me on evilnat 4.88, but as I said, it only works with cfw:

Yep, the cause seems to be HEN in the end.
Guess I'll wait for a HEN update that brings this feature or a way to update the PS2netemu on HEN.
Until then I'm fine with the manual fan setting doing the work.

That may not happen on HEN unless a method to sign the system files like official is found.

The problem with PS2netemu is that HEN is unloaded from memory when the PS2 game is launched.

I guess thats too bad, does this means CFW on Super Slim? Which is unlikely in the near future from what I know.
Or its a more possible function/feature than "CFW"?

CFW on Super Slim is not in the horizon... CFW has some security checks disabled. That's why the patched ps2 emulator works on CFW.

On OFW/HFW there are security checks that prevent load patched system files (sprx, self).

It could be circumvented if a method to sign files like Sony is leaked/found. But that is not possible at the moment with the tools publicly available.
