webMAN MOD is a fork of @deank's original webMAN. Dean's version is solid and provides a great experience on its own and provides a great foundation to webMAN MOD which started out as a collection of mods and the developer Aldostool's really took over the fork's development and provided many new features / support and takes the plugin into modern times. Both are great options provided by great developer's and to get a bit of insight on their development perspective be sure to checkout our recent interviews of both of these developer's deank (vol.1) and also Aldostools in (vol. 3) from our Power Supply Series

Update May 17 via Aldostools (link)
Big Announcement:
In the latest days the webMAN MOD suite of tools have achieved various important millestones:
1- Now it's possible to play games stored in exFAT / NTFS / FAT32 / NET and internal HDD using prepISO (exFAT / NTFS)
2- ps3netsrv now supports listing/mounting the content of multiple directories in a single folder.
This expands the ability to merge the content from multiple sources / folders / servers.
3- ROMS now can be played directly from remote servers (RetroArch + ps3netsrv)
4- ROMS now show the name, icons & background when mounted
5- New ability to execute SELF applications via PKG/ROM Launcher
6- New ability to limit the maximum fan speed to stop the "Jet" noise caused by the dynamic fan control.
7- Extended the PKG/ROM Launcher support for new RetroArch emulators
And today we can celebrate a new achievement after years of research and tests!

PSPISO games now can be mounted and played directly from NTFS devices and from ps3netsrv without need to copy the ISO locally.
This is a tremendous accomplishment, because it not only saves time to the user.
It also saves the precious disk space in HDD0!! And eliminates the duplicated game listing that resulted of the copy.
Enjoy all the new features!
