• Homebrew, PS3 Hacks , 28.11.2010

    Popular PS3 Dev Hermes, the creator of the “Hermes” payloads for PSGroove, has released a port of Heretic And Hexen for the PS3 which has been created using the Open Source SDK PSL1GHT, here is a quote from the source:

    To celebrate PSL1GHT already beginning to have a body and the creation of Soundlib PS3 that can play up to 16 voices sound, I carried two classic PC to PS3 that use multiple effects: The Heretic and Hexen games

    Required to operate and HEXEN.WAD HERETIC.WAD WADs respectively (shareware or not and so, in case that name) to be copied into the directory of EBOOT.BIN or otherwise within the folder “heretic “and” hexen “respectively, in a USB device.

    At the start of the game, if installed in hard disk (by PKG) is the option to press CIRCLE to copy the contents of the folders “heretic” or “hexen” from the USB device to the installation path of the game, with facilitaros to life.

    On the other hand, I’ve got vibration in command: when we receive a damage activates the strong vibration, but when it is an enemy that takes damage, you’ll notice in the form of lower vibration.

    The latter is perhaps not very realistic since it is well if we are what we are violating the damage at close range, but not so much long distance and to say that the command is currando vibrate when the bugs between them … [Laughs]. However, I have left and that sometimes is good to know you have a few wild animals around and it is useful to know that truly, your ammunition is doing pupa (not all hard-nosed realism XD)

    You also have option of using a series of cheats as mentioned in the readme.txt.

    On the other hand, let me know if you have problems with the display: I have checked the HDMI modes available to me (which excludes 1080P) to try to find the viewable screen and use a routine that re-scale a screen “virtual” format output. The problem is that the drawing area of the screen in PS3, is outside the visible area of your monitor / screen and that requires some adjustments I’ve made based on my screen and do not know if any other, can cause problems or not, or whether any other resolution requires further adjustments (one thing is to see a slight edge to the right, for example, and second straight, are not things that should appear.) It distinguishes between 4:3 and 16:9

    The read me me is in both English and Spanish.

      So it works on 4:3? I didn't exactly understand the last note about the resolution issue. Because I would need a smaller resolution since I dont own a huge tv. I had to even wait for them to fix Doom. So if this is working on a smaller resolution I should be fine.
