PS3 PS3 Net Server Tutorial

Hi. Thanks for trying to help me. Please tell me. Can you or someone have an example of Docker settings for this situation, so that I can try to do it by analogy? Or can you recommend a ps3netsrv build in Docker that will definitely work for me? Is it correct that I specify the path to the PS3NETSRV = /games folder in the container settings (in lower case)? Or maybe I need to specify, for example, the path to a subfolder, like this? PS3NETSRTV/GAMES = /games Or else?

I suggest you that open an issue in Github
https://github.com/shawly/docker-ps3netsrv

Or write in this issue and mention to @shawly
https://github.com/aldostools/webMAN-MOD/issues/345

Well I wish that aldo actually officially introduce a docker version of his ps3netsrv. just imagine how painless to setup a ps3netsrv on a NAS or linux system that will be.


I used this and it works just fine for me.

the configuration is 38008 is the port you need to expose, and you also need to expose a volume as well which /games.

Hi.
Specify in the port settings: Local port = Container port = 38008? Right?
And specify the paths for the volume settings: PS3NETSRV = / games Right?

yes 38008 is the internal port that shawly's ps3netsrv image uses, all you have to do is expose that to whatever port you want that is available on your server.

for the volume, you need to map that to whatever directory that is that contains your game dumps. im using OpenMediaVault, so I basically mount that to my drive located in /srv directory (in my case its in /srv/ROMS/ps3netsrv).

so my configuration is like this:

docker create --name=ps3netsrv -p 38008:38008 -v /srv/ROMS/ps3netsrv:/games --restart unless-stopped shawly/ps3netsrv

to start it just go with the command:

docker start ps3netsrv

if you want to copy my docker create command, just replace that /srv/ROMS/ps3netsrv with whatever directory your game dumps are located.

Sorry for the stupid question. Can you please tell me where to write these commands? I just do everything through the Synology Docker GUI.

I figured out how to do it. I did everything as you advised. Just specified my folder structure. Everything is the same. Did not help. I'm stumped. I do not know what to do.

Help you with what?

Good Morning!

I have my ps3 slim that used ps3netsrv on the linux server running correctly, but the ps3 HD burned
made the switch, installed the latest firmware version 4.88 (CEX), installed the latest version of webman (1.47.37)

but now when I configure to search my network ps3netsrv does not find anything. I've tested so much
with both linux and the windows version of ps3netsrv and it doesn't work, I even tested it on another computer, but it doesn't work.
I entered the browser through the PS3's ip, it shows my network, it shows the games, but it doesn't show on the XMB inside 'MY GAMES'
I tested using the ps3 direct browser (http://0/net0) it shows the folders and also the games, but on the XMB it doesn't appear!

Strange that in Multiman it works, but I would like to appear in the XMB.

I've already tried to reinstall webman to see if it would solve it and it doesn't work, is there any extra configuration to show the games?

Thank you for your comment. A recent change during the weekend introduced a bug that prevented the listing of ps3netsrv files.

Today I reverted the change and the remote files should be listing again.

You can download the latest build using the online updater found on XMB (and reboot) or re-download the installer from:
https://github.com/aldostools/webMAN-MOD/releases
or https://store.brewology.com/ahomebrew.php?brewid=310

Thanks for helping aldostools!

Really, a small change and it makes all the difference!
Tested and approved, the images of the games just don't appear, but I believe it's a configuration

Thanks!!
 
Guys does anyone use docker compose build of ps3netsrv? How to check if its running?

I am using openmediavault server with portainer, tried to use docker compose build, modified it a little bit and it seems to be running, how to debug if its fine?

if i try localhost:38008 nothing happens

logs show this:

EDIT: ok guys, so my docker app is running fine, and I can mount net0 via Multiman, but Webman MOD does not detect netiso folder why is that?

I managed to get PS3 Ridge Racer 7 working with PS3.NET Server.
I noticed that the load screen before the races was pretty long aside from that the game seemed to play perfectly. Any way to speed up the loading times? I am just using wifi atm, I can use ethernet if it will speed the game loading times up?
EDIT: I used ethernet and got an extremely good speed. But, I would prefer to use wifi as the ethernet cord kind of gets in the way. Has anyone managed to get a good wifi speed?

Ridge Racer 7 was in the ISO format. Will other formats work for PS3 games or do they have to be ISOs?

I tried some PS1 games but they did not work. I'm thinking that I have the wrong file type or something. My PS1 games are in the .BIN & .CUE format.
Is it the format of my PS1 games or is it that I'm doing something else wrong?

Hello,
is it possible to run ps3netsrv with NoBD version of cfw? I've tried to mount PKG files but always got an error. I dont have access to the dev_bdvd hence the failure I guess. Here is the error from webman:
Code: 
404 Path not found 
dev_bdvd
Maybe there is an option to mount /net to somewhere else?

The remote folders or ISO are mounted as /dev_bdvd
 
Monkinek said:
So there is no way of using netserv on NoBD. Are there any alternatives?
Thanks.

Cobra payload relies on dev_bdvd emulation for ps3netsrv,

If dev_bdvd cannot be mounted, the options are PSN games or GAMES folders stored in external FAT32 drives or internal HDD.
 
So I'm using ps3netsrv on a nas. I used the fork ps3netsrv-ng on my qnap nas. When I use webman mod I can browse all the game directories & files in net0 but none of the games show in webman mod games? I have ftp'd a sample game to dev_hdd0 and it loads but cant get webman mod to recognize the jb game backups on the nas. Can someone provide advice or link to a detailed guide to problem solve?
