Well, it will just be like applying XMB mods on HAN, kind of like CFW. Actual signed file changes will be still be in RAM.

Yes as i think patches will be in RAM when the signed modules are decrypted to get rid of $ony encryption :excitement::stupid:
 
So, CEX 4.84 here, every-time I try to install this mod (which looks very nice btw) everything gets completely screwed.

MultiMAN stops working completely, uninstalling and reinstalling break things further.
My fan speed goes insane when booting, even after attempting to use backup...and it failing.
No games will load, WebMANN is broken and crashes me everytime I load.
Cobra is broken
PSNPatch breaks in turn
Ccapi breaks (says it's compatible with CEX, but I have attempted all of this on DEX for funsies with another unit)
The only that I can do after all this, reinstall Rebug 4.84.2 REX.

Not sure what I am doing wrong, so I will break down the installation
1. I play on the modded PS3 for several days to a few weeks uninterrupted by any significant issues. I usually stick to CEX.
2. I finally get bored and atempt to install this, my check list is;
*PSP Launcher, Retro Launcher, MultiMANN (which will have to be reinstalled, but this fact is irrelevant because I have tried leaving it as-is).
*My other instalations are; 7 games on the internal HDD in the form of folders (easier to manage), Ccapi 2.80r5, PSNPatch 20.17.02/B, Webman Mod, rebug toolkit, and a custom PSone Coldboot.
3. I install the PS3 Pro PKG onto my PS3, install the package, and activate it through the game menu
* I have done this with and without reloading the console.
4. The results are varied, just depends on which way I am leaning I guess.
* Most of the times; Everything seemingly proceeds as normal, beautiful restart, my game is no longer loaded ( not exactly sure why your mod has to mess with those files anyways....), Multiman freezes the console without fully booting > reinstall > same results, Initialize the backup to take the mod back off and atempt a reinstall, backup fails....> reinstall Rebug CFW (many variations of this, including a reboot before any actions, and not loading multiman before reinstalling it, have all been done)
* A joyous some of the times; Some of the times...it fails to copy files, then it fails to intilize backup. I'm left with a half backed mod, and a serious wonder as to what I could possibly be doing wrong, or if this is completely broken/only works ofr certain models.

Anyways, figured I would write this and leave it here, thank you for the beautiful mod. This is the problem I have been facing, if you could hlep it would be appreciated, if not, that's ok too. Have a good one.

This mod looks good, but i think it changes too much to be stable or to diagnose the issues, see the reviews. https://www.psx-place.com/resources/ps3-4k-pro-mod.595/reviews . You are not the only one with issues.

I recently updated my ps3 to 4.84 REX and installed the mod everything is working good to far here.

1- MultiMan i will check it (I'm having the same issue, without the mod my Multiman sometmes crashes all of sudden, with the mod it doesnt pass loading screen,) Maybe due to system using more resources? Cuz i only changed a PNG inside Multiman

2- The Fan Going Insane is caused of Webman (I have add my config file by mistake in the installer lol and its set to Dynamic Fan) that's why u guys may strange this! Just edit the webman settings as u are used to

3 - As it is meant for 4.82 FW it included the WEBMAN that supports it ... So u need to update ur webman to lastest one that supports ur FW ( i included the webman mod cuz some custom functions calls it)

4 - What do u mean Cobra is Broken? I tried just now it loaded fine my ps2 and psp games

5 - I dont use PSNPatch, it will surely be broken cuz when u install the MOD, it REPLACES UR boot_plugins.txt ( and i didnt set it), just install it again or add the patch manually

and

6 - Installing CCAPI are giving what errors?

Since i'm fixing some issues and updating some things in the MOD

1- I willl try to fix MultiMan ( i dont know a usage for it, since webman does the job quicker and easier)

2- Remove the Config Files of Webman

3- Fix the WebMan My Games name replacement in portuguese (I dont know why for some ppl it is translating it,since the file is only in the PT-BR version and in the Portuguese Section) Maybe ppl are using the wrong option

4 - Update WebMan that supports 4.84CFW

And now as u said the cobra is broken ( mine doesnt) i maybe will try to rebase the game_plugin.sprx if it is a issue
But since cobra hashes are static now it should not be a problem

Any other suggestion will be appreciated

I have a version that works with HEN if anyone wants it. The "boost" mode is only if you run the "2160" mode which is actually 1080 and the "1080" is actually 720p

I just realized that Boost Mode doesn't show in resolutions below 1080p , i never used the ps3 below this

But it's caused by the x and y coordinates that i used, i will need to mess with the resolution file that @sandungas mentioned back in 2017

And it may fix the Animated :but cir::but x::but square::but tri: icons being bigger in other resoltions below 1080p.


But i have no clue about it XD


I'm thinking now to change the Resolution names to default ones and try to copy the 1080 resolution and rename as 2160 and add the boost mode only in this option to fake the Boost Mode in ps4

Is tricky, i was talking about it in this thread
https://www.psx-place.com/threads/anyone-can-help-with-xml-edits.22678/page-4#post-164881

Is needed to make some calculations, then search for the position in the .txt file
The real value (that indicates the sizes and positions) are in the .txt
 
Wouldn't it be possible to create an exclusive version for hen too? In this video I used the same files I made in han, thanks to @LuanTeles , but now with hen wanted to know if that would be possible.

Can you show me a sample of the xml sections where you are doing this animations ?
Paste it here https://pastebin.com/ (and save it with syntax highlighting XML)

My goal is to try to find a single line (lets say, related with the cross button) to use as a guinea pig to explain you how works all that calculations of positions and sizes

This is tricky in itself... because i need to find something very short and simple enought to use for the examples... this way it will be easyer for me to explain it, and easyer for others to understand my explains
In the link i posted here i was lucky because it was very straightforward, i was trying to calculate the positions for that tiny red squares that blinks when the dualshok3 is recharging
https://www.psx-place.com/threads/anyone-can-help-with-xml-edits.22678/page-4#post-164881

I guess i can do the same with the dualshock cross button.... but im not sure yet, i need to take a look at the xml and imagine how to write a wall of text about it and make some drawings, lol

Sure let me make a PKG and test it. I just FTP the files over. Was gonna make one prior to 2.2.1 when they still used dev_blind but held out due to the dev_rewrite as I wasn't sure if dev_blind was coming back. If you just want the files to FTP over I can get those now. I haven't ever made a dev_rewrite but should not be any different. I just need to make sure the XMBM interface works with dev_rewrite and reinstall the stock FW to grab the original files as I don't have those. I have a few other mods I'm not sure if anyone wants like a custom lines.qrc and icon.qrc (from 3.56 JFW ported to 4.84) as well as the Transformer coldboot sound. Kinda think it fits as the system "transforms" here is what I have now as well as a few other tweaks.

What do you guys thinks about this new sidemenu animation?

The system settings will remain having the petal ones

and the XMB icons categories will have this PlayStation Buttons.





And the new Impose Screen
