/hbg/- Homebrew & Hacking General

Who /ylod/ here?

How feasibly it is to inject Dragon quest builder's vita english text files into the japanese PS3 version?

Apparently, they have the same text file

Early production slims are easily hackable now too.

but slim is hackable if you have the right one

One user on here said he tried and said it would be more difficult than a simple inject job. Might be worth looking into more though.

is there a homebrew channel application that I can launch Wii channels from? it would be nice if I could launch virtual console games without exiting to the system menu

USB Loader GX lets you load channels. Think you'd need priiloader or something to make it the default "home menu" though.

well shit. I've had that on here for years and never realized it can do that. thanks, and yeah my Wii boots right into the homebrew channel which is why I wanted to know this

>tfw want to cfw my PS3 just to put all the games i legally bought on the HDD
>don't want to risk ban when logging in online
fuck you sony

why not? my 3ds battery has been dead for a while now and i havent got around to buying one so ive yet to try out the DS stuff.

I'd be super interested in this. Would love to see Yakuza 0 get translated on PS3 too but I know that probably isn't feasible and not worth the effort at all.

For the PS3 hack how does someone do a file comparison for checksum?
I have HxD by the way

worried about my PS3's temp has got me trying to turn the fan speeds up, which can get it down from 75 to low 60s which is great. but i get a yellow flashing light whenever i do this, why would it have a yellow light only when the fan is running high and not when its hot??

>HxD
HxD is a hex editor, not a checksum verifier.
There's plenty of software that does checksum verification but Windows users should either use certutil or a FLOSS one.

Any of you fine folks have a link to the Red, Blue, Yellow VC Trading patches?
Thanks!

because it's slow as shit and saving barely works

just buy a $10 DS flashcart if you want DS games

It's worth owning a flashcart for the fact it can be used to fix bricks anyway. Not that you should be bricking a 3DS these days, but still.

wheres a reliable place to buy a flashcart for that cheap?

this. fucking love top loaders. I think Wii mini is cute as fuck and ps2 slim too. Fuck slot in drives

my nigga

There's a small program called HashCheck for Windows. I've been using it for a while. It adds pi related to the file's properties window.

so did that dolphin port for ps3 ever come out?

you mean dolphin porn ?

The PS3 can't even emulate N64 games. Why do you think it could run Dolphin?

either way im happy

If I hack my PS3 will I be able to play online? Trying to figure out if it's worth it

Wheres the best place to buy a flashcart for my DSi 1.4.5E?

Skate 3 US ISO when
Sonic unleashed iso when

Just go buy the games yourself, back them up and then return them.

Sonic Unleashed pkg is on Psnstuffx

I Don't live in the US

4.05 cfw soon.

I hate the PS4 hacking scene so much

Begone, thot.

Do I need to update from al9h to b9s and/or update luma to be able to safely update my N3ds firmware ?

Check the guide

I did, and didn't find an answer to my question. Did I miss it somehow ?

If you read the guide and are still asking the question, then you didn't read it enough.

>install dead nation and activate it
>start it up, says latest update data was found. thought it was included in the package as i havent signed in PSN
>it's actually downloading it
BOYS AM I FUCKED

Every one of them is a disgrace.

I hope Chinese can save us from this hell.

Updating games is fine since it's on a different server than PSN.

thank you

i saw on 3ds.guide they had recommended a store to buy flash carts but now looking through the pages I can't seem to find it. anyone know where that might be?

>I hope Chinese can save us from this hell.
>Chinese
120 dollar for a dongle that does the hacking at best.

PS4 scene is shit, it's doomed.

Dark_Alex is spinning in his grave.

5.0 when
I fucked up and updated a couple months ago

are psn classics different from emulating ps2?

preset emulator settings, I think.

Looking to get Guilty Gear Revelator on PSNStuff but it says *Warning, missing RAP* in the description.
What does that mean exactly?

thirding interest in this
if Square Enix had released it in english in the first place I would've bought it, but for some reason they don't want the gaijin to play their most precious rpg

Can I safely format my 3ds to change the nintendo id? Or should I remove the SD card?

Never done it, I've no idea if it deletes games. I backup my save data in any case.

Means it's fucking useless.

>Never done it, I've no idea if it deletes games
it does

Figured.

Can I do the ps3 exploit if I'm at 4.81? Or do I have to update and it's 4.82 the most recent one?

it might just be persona 5's style
I remember thinking the same thing months ago

Does removing the SD card work, or does that affect a9hl?

I was in the same situation as you. Update, then do the hack.

I got both of them from downloadps3game
Skate 3 was disappointing though. I absolutely cannot get the hang of the controls. THPS is better

Is freeshop safe to use if spotpass/data collection/currently playing settings are all turned off?

How good are Project 8 and Proving Ground?

Can someone recommend a WBFS manager that works in Linux?
Just want to convert Fire Emblem from an ISO to WBFS.

I dunno, I've only played THPS1-4. I'm just thinking about how the controls compare between them and Skate 3. Doing tricks and even just jumping with the stick feels weird and imprecise and like I have no control.

I see.
I'll probably try either one while waiting for a US ISO of S3 to surface.
See, I found a full collection of Skate 3 DLC, but it's US and the only ISO I could find of S3 was EU.

Hey I haven't visited this general in months. Last time I visited there were some Luma / tranny memes going on but that's it.
Anything big happened regarding the 3DS or not? Like ban waves or important updates?

Just bought a Wii to play "backed up" Wii games and I'm also planning to make it an emulation machine for SNES, N64, Gamecube etc. games. Have a few questions:

Is there a recommended controller to buy? Currently only have two Wii remotes. What would be the best controller for non-Wii games?

How "picky" is the Wii with storage? Can I use a MicroSD with a SD adapter or does it need an actual SD card? What about for the external USB hard drive / flash drive?

Do I need to get a memory card?

Do those Wii2HDMI adapters work as advertised?

IIRC, people in here discourage the use of WBFS as a file system but encourage the files.
If you want to use it though, just look up wiims.

>Do those Wii2HDMI adapters work as advertised?
I have one of these, and it works surprisingly well.

I am having great difficulties
red's NOR flasher says SUCCESS then freezes
when I restart console i get a "shut down improperly" message
when I try to install the rebug CFW in the guide as an update it can't find it in my usb
please assist

>red's NOR flasher says SUCCESS then freezes
If it freezes, it didn't work. It should restart the console on it's own if it does work.

I will keep trying then, but how do I stop the freezing
I have tried just about everything, clearing history, cookies, setting the homepage to the flasher
etc.

>Is there a recommended controller to buy? Currently only have two Wii remotes. What would be the best controller for non-Wii games?
The classic controller pro, don't fall for the vanilla classic controller meme, only retarded nostalgia fags liked that shit, the fucking cord got placed on the bottom and has horrid mushy buttons, but numales bought it because le oldskool controller.
>How "picky" is the Wii with storage? Can I use a MicroSD with a SD adapter or does it need an actual SD card? What about for the external USB hard drive / flash drive?
I use a micro sd card+sd adapter on mine because i've never seen an actual sd card that was bigger than 4gb, everything but wii games work on that, for some reason i've never been able to run wii games from the sd card, only from usb or burned discs, no idea why and i don't care nearly enough to look into that since my wii is an emulation machine for dad.
>Do I need to get a memory card?
No, in fact recent wii models don't even have the memory card slot or gc controller ports anymore, data gets saved to the sd card.
>Do those Wii2HDMI adapters work as advertised?
In that they convert analog signal to HDMI for easy of use? Yes, however i'd strongly recommend getting component cables instead if your tv has the ports, it looks significantly better, the HDMI converter outputs av signal aka 480i still, component is 480p.

That's it. I give up. I tried well over 20 times now, but whenever I'm trying to install REBUG, it stops at 70-75% and says the data is corrupted. I even bought a new Flash Drive to see if that was the issue, but it gave the same result. I saw the model and it should be compatible wiht the exploit (2511A Slim), I did everything as they say in the guides, but it still doesn't work I guess my PS3 just wasn't meant to be hacked.
Really sucks because all I wanted was to finally play Vesperia in english, but oh well. I tried.

Kill yourself

>2511A
Did you use MinVerChk first?

Yes. Min FW is 3.40. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong and I don't know what I could do different, so I just give up.

Try redoing the NOR Flasher.

Like I said, I tried it well over 20 times. Everytime I got the corrupted data message I redid the NOR Flasher.
Also I tried installing both REBUG and FERROX, and none worked.

It took me 30 times to get it to work. Try hosting the web server locally. Made things a lot easier.

>Slim PS3 hacked
Anyone know of any must have packages?
Also where can I get pkg files and ps3 isos? They seem to be very hard to find.

>Also where can I get pkg files and ps3 isos?
Check the guide.
>ISOS: NicoBlog nicoblog.org/ - downloadgameps3.com/
>PKGS: PSNStuff+ ps3hax.net/showthread.php?t=81538 - PSNDL psndl.net/

Wait, it's not supposed to freeze? I've been stuck on this SUCCESS... screen for a while now and i thought that was supposed to happen

No, freezing means it failed

thanks for your very helpful answer

>The classic controller pro
I'll try to get that, but are any of the third party controllers good? Seem to be more easily available.

>i'd strongly recommend getting component cables instead if your tv has the ports
sadly not an option, there's only SCART and HDMI on the TV

The wave in the background is not supposed to freeze. When mine finally worked it didn't even display fail/sucess. Try hosting the exploit on your local network. Make sure your usb is in the closest port to the bluray drive. Make sure homepage is set to blank, clear cache too.

Oh it just worked now, beeped three times and shit. I booted it back on, got the "didn't shutdown properly check for corrupt data" thing, I just cancelled it.
It won't detect the system update on my usb though.

Download it again.

Read the guide properly

>It won't detect the system update on my usb though.
Make sure it's in the right folder.

USB root>PS3>UPDATE>PS3UDPAT.PUP

i'm retarded

Just got an old 2DS, can I hack it with a system transfer from my old B9S 3DS, or is the only way to hardmod?
