ManaGunZ

PS3 ManaGunZ - PS3 Backup Manager by Zar v1.41

It also appears my v1.35 freezes when I finally try and mount an ISO... :apologetic:
Are 2 different problems, the max number of games is a known problem and is a "work in progress", and the problem mounting the ISO dunno, you need to give more info about your setup, etc...

Just noticed 2 typos in that log texts of the screenshot

directories names = directory names
Initialisation = Initialization

it's fixed.

I didn't want to show these messages in the release when I wrote them. I created this to allow some friends to help me debugging it, and later i decided to keep it because it help me to understand exactly where it crashes ;)

About the MAX game 200, it will be fixed in next undate sry for the trouble...

About the ISO freeze, are u in cobra ? mamba ? What is the platform PSP, PS1, PS2 or PS3 ?


PS: I finished what I was doing. So, I'm going to be back on ManaGunZ during the week ;)
 
As far i know, the only feature related with ISO that is "broken" are the PS2 ISO mounted with mamba in firmwares lower than 4.50 (or around that, im not sure when it happened)
*Same problem exists in irisman

I was about to mention it the other day in this thread about irisman and the mamba loader https://www.psx-place.com/threads/u...-4-84-on-cex-dex-deh.22627/page-2#post-166874
Take a read at that talk @Zar btw

@Zar I just downgraded to PS3iTA 4.50 DEX and ran Managunz 1.35 to play PS2 ISO.

It's not patching ps2 emu files

it's just stuck doing this :P
 
It probably failed to extract the self, I think it's a issue with scetool keys...


About the issue with the mamba, I had these troubles too. I couldn't load without the mamba loader too :
I searched a lot ....
https://github.com/Ps3itaTeam/MAMBA/commit/fa136d3f320b24e923b52532b165b34fbb4f9122
And even with this some function were broken. So, https://github.com/Ps3itaTeam/MAMBA/commit/4076a450c93498bca3149cfae16479fd80f969c1
So, I used the mamba loader.


btw, @Joonie
Do you have the 4.83 DEX ? it's missing in my collection :p

I have c. 230 games so that may just be the issue! I had read previously in the thread that the game limit was 500. I can just play my old games via internal anwyays :smile new:

Edit: Works great with HDD disconnected

Thanks for the help guys!

Unfortunately I didn't have this new supplier until a month ago and I didn't get a chance to ask for 4.83, and he's again MIA.

Have you tryed the same with latest irisman in PS3iTA 4.50 DEX ?

IRISMAN doesn't patch ps2emus like Managunz does, But I think it should be able to load PS3/PSX/DVD/BD fine. I haven't tried them yet.

Could you send me the source code? I want to support your Mamba 4.0 in webMAN MOD.
It seems that you also entered into the "It's magic" party.... Doesn't it also support PSVita games or did I reveal your secret feature? ;)

What is used to compile ManaGunZ? Is it PSL1GHT? Just curious cause I think I read something about an alternate homebrew SDK at some point.
