You may remember playing hours with this game, now it’s time for some “SNK” revival. This awesome piece of art is now available on PSN.
For *current-gen* and *next-gen*.

Developer ‘Joonie’ has released his homebrew collections supporting 4.70 DEX. Additional information and download links found below:

Here is several homebrew that I ported for upcoming REX / D-REX 4.70

Firstly, here is IRISMAN 3.46 [approved by aldostools]

• It has several changes since 3.45 version.
• Updated Payload for 4.70 CEX
• 4.70 DEX support including MAMBA
•  Fixed fan controller payload, 
• [however, it still has old audio glitching bug when using payload mode since the official IRIS, I personally recommend webMAN instead] 
• Korean language support
• Fixed auto button swap, all previous IRISMAN used to execute read_settings() before read_from_registry();, which explains why it was not working properly without changing ini file, now it properly detects region setting from registry, and apply that “buttonAssign” setting to IRIS without changing setting.ini, this should make all Asian users happier Thanks again aldostools for tips

PSN Patch developer KW has released a new update. Basically, he has included a document/FAQ which must be read by the user in order to use the patch. Any questions asked by users covered within the document/faq will not be answered by him. This update was released in sheer frustration due to individuals not reading before performing a task/asking questions. Additional information can be found below:

Do you have any questions about PSNPATCH?

Read this document and the FAQs before asking! Most questions are already answered there.

No support will be given for questions already covered in the documentation!

What is PSNpatch ?

CORE (compatible with ALL 4.XX firmwares):
- Spoofs IDPS (console ID) and PSID;
- Disables cfw syscalls (emulates official firmware);
- Auto-Deletes game and homebrew launch history;
- BLOCKS PSN access until cfw syscalls are disabled;
- Installs RAPs and EDATs.
- Unlocks PSN (c00) game demos.
- Unlocks ps2classics launcher.
- It Patches new games to run in lower firmware (4.46) systems - both ISO and folder formats;
- PSNPatch plug-in for easy usage with COBRA and NON-COBRA cfw including PSN access control;
- Includes webMAN plug-in installation and XMB configuration.

COBRA (for 4.46 and above firmwares running cobra 7.XX):
- Cobra extensions (with stealth extensions for even better cfw disabling in COBRA systems);
- Special processing for CFW disabling in REBUG;
- Spoofs firmware version to ANY version (*) - temporary disabled.

RELEASE NOTES:

4.70.06 22/MAR/2015
Small “user friendly” update:

• “Unlock PSN access when disabling CFW” is extended from “plugin-only” to both application and plugin (NOTE a)
• Several performance improvements;
• README and FAQ files updated: READ !

NOTES:

• This will help users having difficulties accessing PSNPatch documentation - where it was explained that the plugin must (should) be used for this.
• You must read this document BEFORE USING PSNPATCH - no support will be given for questions already covered in this document or in the FAQ list.

4.70.05 15/MAR/2015

• psnpatch plugin updated to faster start-up (when locking psn access);
• non-cobra plugin-manager updated: faster, safer, smaller and firmware independent (4.XX CEX past and future);
• psnpatch deletes app_home from xmb in cobra but NOT in non-cobra (needed for discless start);
• source code updated.
• psnpatch pkg file was optimized once again: un-install psnpatch and reinstall new version to benefict from the small size.

NOTE I:

• It has always been a major objective of psnpatch to be made firmware version independent.
• This will garantee that once a new firmware is released, we wouldn’t need to wait for KW to release a new psnpatch version as the one already available would be compatible.
• Almost everything was made this way: From the CFW disabling, to the IDPS spoofing, passing trough plugin compatibility or rap installs.
• The plugin manager for non-cobra WAS not YET like this: A payload for every firmware version was needed.
• With the new changes NOW included in 4.70.05,
• PSNPatch will “patch” the payload to the currently running firmware version, hopefully making it “firmware independent” as all the other functions.

NOTE II:

• Some users asked for a ISO loading in non-cobra.
• This is not impossible, in fact, loading MAMBA for the job at start-up is easy and works.
• But, it does not make sense in psnpatch scope:
• Plugin loading in non-cobra firmwares opens the door for non-cobra firmwares to load plugins at boot,
• like psnpatch plugin (for things like auto block psn and disable cfw from XMB)
• or even a lightweight version of webman to load folder format games.
• From here, plugins developers can do whatever they fit appropriate.
• In my opinion, what is offered for non-cobra is already very nice.
• When we want ISO, NET loading, PS3MAPI, and whatever more we can get from cobra … we go for cobra

4.70.02 3/MAR/2015
BIG news for non-cobra cfw !

• Added auto-boot PLUGINS FOR NON-COBRA CFW !!!
• New psnpatch plugin updated to fully run in BOTH COBRA and NON-COBRA;
• Included webman-mod plugin for both cobra and non-cobra modes;
• “Block PSN Access” now works for BOTH COBRA and NON-COBRA at boot time;
  (providing the psnpatch plugin is installed - wait for psnpatch welcome message).
• IDPS auto-spoofing now works for BOTH COBRA and NON-COBRA at boot time;
  (providing the psnpatch plugin is installed - wait for psnpatch welcome message).
• Confirmed compatibility with 4.70 CFW
  (this is just a confirmation as no code changes were needed);

NOTES for non-cobra plugins:

• Non-cobra plugins should be configured in /dev_hdd0/prx_plugins.txt;
• (psnpatch does this automatically when installing psnpatch or webman plugins);
• Non-cobra plugins can mount games only in jailbreak format;
• ISO support for non-cobra is comming
• When in non-cobra CFW: go to new “TOOLBOX” menu in PSNPatch app to configure plugins;
• Non-cobra plugins were tested just in 4.70, but it should be compatible with several previous CFW versions;
• Many failsafe procedures were taken in consideration to install the non-cobra plugin handler.
• In the event of something going wrong (a broken plugin or an error installing the plugin handler),
• there are 2 EASY failsafe procedures:
• 1) Create a “failsafe” file and place it in a folder named “core_flags” in a usb stick in the right usb port of the ps3.This procedure can also be done to disable plugin loading from non-cobra cfw.
• 2) Re-install the CFW from the Recovery menu.

Aldo Vargas has updated webMAN MOD following the recent webMAN 1.41 release from deank.

If you don’t know yet, webMAN MOD is a fork of deank’s webMAN, by M@tsumot0 & aldostools. It follows webMAN’s releases but adds several additional features. Among said features are 23 additional translations by default, that use modular LANG_XX.TXT language files so you may modify them or add more yourself. Including but not limited to XMB/In-Game Pad Shortcuts that disable CFW syscalls; gameDATA; toggle Offline Mode; toggle PS2 emu, Cobra, & Rebug/Toolbox Features; and to Unmount games.

WebMAN MOD has also gotten a few new features recently, such as; The ability to Auto-Fix games; _NzV_’s PS3 Manager API; Support for Scalable Vector Graphics ^(.svg) images; and webchat. Subfolder scanning was improved with 1.41.08, which can no doubt ease organization on your hdd (such as PSX bin/cue/jpg within subdirectories of any name). A new “slider” interface was added (Since 1.41.20) with mobile devices in mind. Along with the ability to (Since 1.41.32) now scan SD/MS/CF cards on old fat PS3s if the cards are inserted upon boot, webMAN-MOD now (1.41.36) redirects the PS3_UPDATE directory (if it exists) when mounting backups to prevent accidental updates to OFW.

Like it’s mother, webMAN MOD also has multiple plugin builds with varying features that you can choose to use. Should you not need support for extra languages you can slightly reduce webMAN MOD’s memory footprint by specifying the path to “webftp_server_english.sprx” in your /dev_hdd0/boot_plugins.txt file. If you don’t intend to use features like PS3netsrv you may further reduce it’s size by using “webftp_server_lite.sprx” like with deank’s Official webMAN. Alternatively if you want to use PS3MAPI, webchat, noncobra, or REBUG you may use their respective .sprx plugins instead. If you used the installer/updater.pkg, these plugins are located at /dev_hdd0/game/UPDWEBMOD/USRDIR/, however if you choose to install webMAN MOD manually, everything you should need will be found within “webMAN_MOD_1.41.xx.rar” at webMAN_MOD_1.41.xx/updater/pkgfiles/USRDIR/. Also contained within “webMAN_MOD_1.41.xx.rar” are the latest prepNTFS for webMAN-MOD and prxloader 1.09U mod by _NzV_.

As you’re all probably aware by now, Our Former Administrator has recently stepped down after nearly a decade. A lot can happen in a decade. For instance the construction of a tiny forum devoted to bringing together a few people interested in doing more with their PS3s. Or the growth of that little watering hole into a massive ocean of hundreds and thousands of people from all around the world, spreading outward and even connecting with other like-minded groups. Becoming a part of a massive community of sites and people that are all symbiotically involved with one another.

It’s pretty impressive when you give it some thought. Yet sadly, In a decade you can also make a few enemies. However a man without enemies is without character. You see, If anyone, especially your enemy, finds you important enough to devote their time to you, you’ve obviously done something substantial enough to merit their attention. I think that’s quite impressive as well.

Now if you somehow weren’t aware of Pirate handing the torch over to Kingsman, you certainly couldn’t have missed the hours of spam and attacks on our forums following the announcement. Hax Network Staff earnestly apologize for any related inconvenience this has had on our users or the community. This isn’t the first time and sadly it probably won’t be the last time it’s attempted. Though with our recent server upgrades and forum changes as we’ve been transitioning and evolving into the future, this time we were unable to immediately quell the bombardment as we have in the past.

I assure you that the matter is being handled, and traditional forum operation will be restored as soon as possible. It is regrettable that due to the actions of others we have to ask this, but please be patient with us while the disruption is resolved.

Its been a long 8-years, and the age of the PS3 has come and gone and a new era of consoles has begun. It has been a great journey over the years, but unfortunately it is time for me to move on…and this is my official resignation.

PS3Hax has been a wonderful community, and knowledge hub for many people throughout the years for their consoles. However, with the growing demands of the site, I no longer have the time to properly manage and give the attention to PS3Hax to allow it to grow and prosper.

PS3Hax needs a fresh new start, and it has been way past due to hand over the torch. Starting now, Kingsman - someone I know personally, will be taking over my responsibilities  at Hax (leading, managing, etc…).  SimonW will be taking over the technical lead at Hax, and will be responsible for most of the site improvements, repairs etc.

Thanks to everyone that is with - or not with us, any more, throughout the years. It was a wonderful time, and will be forever missed and remember. I wish good luck to the new management, and current Hax staff team, and hopes Hax will continue to prosper for many more years to come.

Good bye.

(2015-03-19) [UPDATE]
Habib showed up with another update today. This time he’s fixed some issues with the built-in PS3MAPI and he has dropped the COBRA 7.10 source code on us.

(2015-03-13)
When Smhabib released his 4.70 CFW V1.00 two weeks ago, the biggest question on everyone’s mind was “Where’s COBRA?”. Well here it is, COBRA 7.10 even. Habib stopped in a few hours ago and released HABIB 4.70 CFW v1.00 with COBRA 7.10 while he was at Starbucks. Clearly the poor guy was distraught and looking for those beautiful girls the rest of you falsely promised him. Anyway, apparently he’s decided to codename this release “STARBUCKS” as a result. A lot of work has recently gone into making COBRA 7.10 from several developers including Joonie, Aldostools, and Smhabib himself.
