Developer DeViL303 is back with an update to XMBPD, the homebrew store that is integrated directly into the XMB (not to be confused with a web shortcut (homebrew store) like what is found in the latest FERROX 4.80 CFW). In version 0.31 there was some minor changes to XMB Package Downloader itself, but the installer seen a big change as it now includes the ability to install another project by DeViL303; webMAN Launchpad that was released several months ago by the developer who has brought us many great XMB modifications over the years..
While developer @DeViL303 has recently stated here in the forums, that he has no plans to further the project (webMAN LaunchPad) in terms of feature wise as he hopes other developers can progress his original POC farther. Which we may of seen as psx-place user @Badboy has re-sparked conversation on this project and shared some webMAN MOD modifications that developer @aldostools has studied and made some implemented of his own into a test build of the plugin and if test go I would assume we see these features added n the next official update of webMAN MOD, but until then checkout the test build here in this post:
Download: XMBPD v0.31 + WebMAN LauncPad v0.11 Installer.

Features of XMBPD:

- Package list will update automatically or can be refreshed manually using the new function.
- Removes the annoying Spotify and Singstar links from main XMB (packages still available to download through XMBPD)

- XMBPD can be updated from within itself via the Tools/Mods/Misc section.
- New icon set for all the categories, All the icons are added to the relevant RCO files for fastest response and smallest filesize while keeping quality.

-
webMAN Launchpad
This is a XMB Mod called WebMAN Launchpad, and it allows for 12 of your favorite WebMAN games, and 6 WebMAN functions to be easily accessed from the XMB with large Shortcut icons. This has a few advantages (and some disadvantages) over normal webman XMB GUI, as you can set age limits on which games/items show up.[/I][/CENTER]

XMBPD v0.31
I've released a small update, The changes to XMBPD are only small:
- Removed a few unwanted files from the themes downloader.
- Tidied up the titles in the themes downloader by removing the file extension.
Either version can of course be used to revert to Rebug 4.80 standard XMB.

Install Launchpad v0.11 on Rebug 4.80 ONLY
NOTE: make sure Cobra and CFW Settings are enabled via Rebug Toolbox while installing OR uninstalling this. You can disable them after using the installer if you wish. And once again, this is firmware specific and made for Rebug 4.80 ONLY.
Launchpad v0.11 changes:
- Made for Rebug 4.80 ONLY
- The xml that holds the paths to the games is now located at dev_hdd0/tmp/wm_launchpad.xml
- This installer now has the option to install XMBPD aswell, reason being this is the only way to get them both installed as they will clash if you try to use the individual installers.
- Im hosting 8000 covers now, So Ive added most of the path for the covers to the xml, so all people need to do now is enter the title IDs of their games and the covers should just work.
- Added new icon (Thanks @0_obeWAN)
- Shortened xml entries as much as possible.
- Added support for all PSN countries.
