    UPDATE: v0.9 has been released (see the BOLDED tweet or picture below for more information). Recently, KDSBest tweeted he had updated his SPU Emulation tool to v0.8, shortly followed by the release of v0.8.1; and even more recently, he has announced his plans to release the next version shortly. Also, he has been in contact with @Wargio aka deroad, and discussing how to improve upon the NoRSX (The 2D Graphic Library used for creating/developing homebrew). To top it all off, KDSBest has agreed to an interview, so watch closely for that later today or early tomorrow.


    For more information about this release, see the following tweets.




    Tweets (From Oldest to Newest):
    - the aim module runs to the hash check of EID0 which fails, cause I miss the data. SPU Emulation v0.8: http://gitbrew.org/~KDSBest/SPU%20simulation%20v0.8.rar

    - For the news sites: http://gitbrew.org/~KDSBest/SPU%20simulation%20v0.8.rar crypto function instructions implemented, aim_spu_module runs fine.

    - A tester tested the eid0 partial decryption of aim in anergistuc and in the spu emu. They match. Gj myself :-)

    - thanks to my tester we found a heavy bug which made the aim not run correctly. Fixing it. -.- bad world ^^

    - I still got a problem with one instruction, the problem is idk what instruction, but aim decrypts the eid0 section fine with spu emu v0.8.1

    - grab it here: http://gitbrew.org/~KDSBest/SPU%20si...n%20v0.8.1.rar

    - the sp somehow land in code section and overrides destroys code. so i don't update the code while the ls changes. This does the trick hotfix

    - New spu emu soon dump function calls and channel access and so on.

    - SPU Emu v0.9: fixed sf* instructions and bugfixes and callstack functions. Dumps all branches now files get big ^^. http://gitbrew.org/~KDSBest/SPU%20simulation%20v0.9.rar

      So it's loading the aim_spu_module and the EID0 and the key but that should only decrypt a partion of it. NICE

      There will be an interview with KDSBest up tomorrow on this website. Perhaps that will give you a little more insight to what this programs does, and what the developers intentions were behind creating it.

      I think you are misled by thinking it's "simulation". It is emulation, not simulation

      with the word emulation, its not very expressive, as in 'psx/ps2 emulation'? or the dump of nand of ps3?

      please make this clear to non techy users

      It is NOT a PS3 Emulator. It emulates the PS3's SPU.

      It pretty much explains itself. If it was PS3 emulation then the title would say "PS3 Emulation". Instead, it says "SPU Emulation" so what would be the next logical step for you to know what it is? Go to Google and type in "PS3 SPU" and see what comes up.

      KDSBest has tweeted today, that he will be releasing SPU Emulation 1.0 soon. This also means his "secret project" is working. Hmm, I wonder if this means more good news for the scene

      its not just for aim_spu_module, other modules will bear fruit. If logical compare done with results on Dex and SPU emu maybe the LS will yeild some results?! This release is a lot more useful than it has been given credit for. So people, get IDA fired up open isoldr and start looking about.
