PS3 [Release] Modern Clock UI 4.82 - 4.84

[dazzaXx]

Ahhhh,i see well worth the try, many thanks you saved my bacon, now i just have to solder the Capacitors again to start the PS3.

Even in CEX mode it will work? [emoji23]

It should do yeah.

@Naked_Snake1995 ... yesterday I made a coldboot classic of ps3, I used the image of the rco, the position of the name was the same as the original, however, without the transition ( When I learn to make the transition to it, I will send it to you ) I was looking for the post where you were talking about it more pinky. .. but I did not find it.

Nice, looking forward to it

The best I could do with that is this:

I haven't been looking into it a lot due to real life stuff, i'll take a look when i have more time to do so unless someone else wants to take a crack at it lol.

Sorry for reviving the post just like this. Is it possible to implement this mod on 4.88.1 HFW? I got really interested in the clock being to the top-right side without the rectangle box being visible (just like it was in pre 3.00 firmware), and by looking at some pics in page 6, it looks like it's possible, but idk if it can be implemented in HFW AND in 4.88.1.

Hi, is there a possibliity to get rid of the whole time and date thing since i know what time it is and i know what date it is - so there is no use for me to have it on my ps3.

Thank you.

It is possible yes. But i no longer have the time to update the things i've made due to irl stuff going on. If someone wants to edit this to remove the date / time completelyy then I am more than happy to let them.

This is one of the cases where you want to disable something composed by a tricky hierarchy of parent-children RCOXML objects, and the best way to do it is to chop it at the root
Is a <page> named page_xmb_indicator, located inside xmb_plugin_normal.rco

Try to delete the line that starts with <Page name="page_xmb_indicator" and all his children and see if it works
But be aware... sometimes the .sprx files doesnt allows to delete objects from inside the rco files... lets say... the sprx is going to search for it, and when we delete from inside the rco the sprx crashes
We dont know if this is the case, i guess the only way to know is to try it, so remember what i suggested you the other day. There is other .rco for the "ingame XMB" where you can try it first, is safer because the PS3 doesnt loads it automatically when the PS3 boots

If the deletion doesnt works (a.k.a is going to cause a firmware crash)... then is going to be needed to play around with the attributes of page_xmb_indicator and his childrens

Spoiler

Right now im not sure what is the best way to do it... but there is something that is going to work fior sure... just changing his coordinates for position X and Y to move it out of the screen
I dont like this solution though, probably there is a better way to do it, im just mentioning it being optimistic because probably works

Yes, delete all that, rebuild the rco and see if it works

If it doesnt works you could try this way, keeping the page_xmb_indicator but deleting his children

<Page name="page_xmb_indicator" unknownInt0="0x1110000" onInit="nothing" onCancel="nothing" onContextMenu="nothing" onActivate="nothing">
</Page>

I think a safer way would be setting alphaScale="0" without delete anything. The objects would be invisible.

I think a safer way would be setting alphaScale="0" without delete anything. The objects would be invisible.

I guess it should work... unless there is some other rcoxml objects added to this hierarchy either taken from another rco or hardcoded inside a sprx, in that case the other objects could be visibles because the color settings are not inherited by children. So is needed to change the alphaScale="0" in all the lines of the samples we are posting and test to see if there is something unexpected that is still visible

There is another way to achieve something similar, by changing width="0" height="0", there are some that already are doing it. In theory it should display them with a size of 0 pixels but the sizes are not inherited by children either, so it needs to be made in all them
EDIT:as far i remember the sizes are inherited, so if using this trick is only needed to edit 1 xml line

What i suggested before about moving it out of the screen is a bit different because the positions are inherited by children, lets say, if we modify the <Plane> "indicator" this way we can push it outside of the screen and there is no need to modify the children, is a minimal patch

<Plane name="indicator" posX="4000" posY="4000"

Is not so straighforward because there are other attirbutes at the end of the lines that overrides the positions and is tricky to calculate

I dont like much this tricks though because i know the objects are there (invisibles, but the XMB is loading them), i have the feeling im hiding the dirt under the carpet, lol
Is more efficient to delete them, is just i dont know any strict rule that could indicate which objects can be deleted and which doesnt, the only way is to try it, @LuanTeles is an expert about this, in his XMB PRO MOD he is constantly adding and removing objects and hitting with this problem very frequently, maybe he knows

 

[Psychokompott]

I have deleted the above but no difference, everything works and the clock/date is still there - so maybe the "xmb_ingame" have no effect. I'll try the xmb_plugin_normal.rco next.


EDIT: Deleting everything from above within the xmb_plugin_normal.rco did the trick. Clock and Date are gone, everything works fine.

Last quick question to the coldboot - i'd like to remove the sound. Can i just delete:
coldboot_stereo.ac3 and coldboot_multi.ac3? Would that be enough?


Thank you very much guys.

 

[LuanTeles]

As @aldostools said i also prefer to set setting alpha values to "0", it is much safer than deleting objects but there are cases that the sprx ignores it and read the values hardcoded somewhere, so just renaming the plane/object name does the trick, lets say, you set the alpha to 0 in all of its child but it is still showing, you can rename the main plane.

<Plane name="example"...

to

<Plane name="example_removed"

so the sprx won't find the object and won't overwrite the values, I don't like to delete things at least when I have to do that, I rename it

I'm glad you got it, yes, it is totally safe to remove the ac3 files.

Nice
There are 2 versions of the coldboot sounds btw. In the table at bottom of this page you can see the MD5 (to identify them), and the table indicates the PS3 firmware versions where you can find them
https://www.psdevwiki.com/ps3/Coldboot.raf

Or... you can delete them... and also you can delete the coldboot.raf (this fileformat is an animation)
Deleting the coldboot.raf doesnt causes problems because is like an extension of custom_render_plugin.rco
After the deletion of the coldboot.raf the XMB uses the contents of custom_render_plugin.rco as a fallback... where you can see how are used the RCOXML Animations

In the old PS3 firmwares the RAF format was not implemented yet (didnt existed) so they was doing the animation with the RCO
