So I just realized that even though I can install more than 4 games to my USB hdd, I have to set a default game on the Pc for it too show up on the PS3

Is there no way in Multiman to change default game, so that I don't have to keep taking the USB to my pc?

Maybe I missed something somewhere.

Q

Hello All, Just wondering if we have a way to switch default backups while on the PS3 or do we need to connect it to the PC and use something like BDEmu Partition Tool each time we want to switch games?

A

You need to build for once a connection between Target Manager and your PS3. Your PS3 needs to be connected with a cable to the internet. Then you can switch the Games with the latest Multiman version and set your default game from there. With Open BDEMU Manager is it possible to add/remove slots.

~Hope this helps

Thanks DEFAULTDNB

I was just hoping was a way without connecting ethernet cable. I use wireless on the PS3.

hmm... there must be a way....

I believe Dean said it had to be Ethernet, perhaps a looooonnnggger cable

switching slots (4,5,6,7,8,9) isn't working from multiman only, looks we need latest aldostools DEX game mounter, the changelog shows a "work-arround" for switching slot 4,5,6,7,8.....from multiman in combo with DEX game mounter

http://aldostools.org/DEX_Game_Mounter.exe 02.03.04

-mounts BDEMU slots:
> for slots 0, 1, 2, 3 it works fine.
> for slots 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 (and probably up to 255) requires to reset the PS3 in 'Release Mode' after the slot of BDEMU is mounted (I added a message to remind that)

SPECIAL THANKS to 
@deank
 for the workaround for slots 4-9



update from dean:

The PS3 just needs to be restarted (you don't have to change the Boot Mode for BDEMU to be mounted). But as PatrickBatman says - most games require "Release Mode", so it is up to the user to pick which mode to spend more time on

Thank haz367

I can't get my ps3 to connect to ProDG as Dex game mounter says you need to be connected.

Its probably just a matter of settings in ProDG but I can't find the right article to tell me what I would need to use with Dex Game Mounter.

Because I just want to run my games from BDemu hdd, not my pc.

Hey @windrider42

for DEX game mounter, it should work if all is setup correct, not tested the "latest" build yet, it includes newest "rcp_bdemu"

update regarding multiman and mounting slot456789 from multiman ONLY

why we didn't think of that it must have worked al this time

did some test with 10 slots and multiman only(+LAN wire connected)

after an post/update from deank(thx) over at crunch that it needs a "manual" reboot after mounting slot 4,5,6,7,8,9

not the perfect way, also in the sense of "showing" the extra slots correctly, they look/are empty after scanning/refresh, although they DO work after a reboot, not the fastest way, anyway all slots work keep in mind, this way without DEX game mounter and Prodg u can have only 10 slots, if u go the DEX game mounter way, one can have and use up to 255 slots, need to test this later on

anyway to not have any freezing on loading XMB after switching slots 4,5,6,7,8,9 with multiman, do it this way:

1) ps3 - release mode
2) run multiman and refresh bdemu game list
3) slot 0-3 are scanned correctly and show up, the others(4,5,6,7,8,9) looks empty ignore this and select e.g slot 9, multiman unmounts previous slot and tries to mount slot 9, it tell's u that it can't find the game in that slot, ignore this error....
4) exit to XMB
5) reboot PS and slot 9 shows up and works

now if u wanna switch slots again, for every switch after the first, u'll need to REFRESH bdemy game list, fail to do so and selecting e.g slot7 wil frees/lockup the PS3 if trying to shutdown/reboot, it takes couple seconds...but it is required to have 10 working slots without any freezing!

This also kinda works for more than 10 images but you have to use ps3gen to switch to image #10 or greater. my ps3 used to freeze every time I used ps3gen to select image #4 or greater, now it doesn't anymore.

I'll modify what @haz367 posted to better explain:


anyway to not have any freezing on loading XMB after switching slots 10 or greater with ps3gen, do it this way:

1) ps3 - release mode (I am using development mode by the way)
2) run multiman and refresh bdemu game list
3) slot 0-3 are scanned correctly and show up, the others(4,5,6,7,8,9) looks empty ignore this.
4) exit to XMB
5) Turn off ps3 and use ps3gen to select e.g slot 11. Boot PS3 and slot 11 shows up and works

now if u wanna switch slots again, for every switch after the first, u'll need to REFRESH bdemy game list, fail to do so and selecting e.g slot7 wil frees/lockup the PS3 if trying to shutdown/reboot, it takes couple seconds...but it is required to have all working slots without any freezing!


Edit: It seems you can save time by just selecting the first slot (0) instead of refreshing the bdemu list, then select the slot you really want.

Thanks haz367 and butnut

I am going to get another hdd and try all this. My WD Mybook 1TB seems to have issues.

Multiman only sees the first default game . It nevers scans the rest and show their names.

I have even tried setting default for one of them on the pc first, but then multiman doesn't see any games or freezes.
