  • UPDATE - multiMAN ver 2.06.02

    Developer deank has been updating his multifunctional tool for the PS3 like a machine recently, and has already released an update for his popular program. This brings the current version to 02.06.02. You can read the official statement below, detailing the current changes from the previous version of multiMAN.

    multiMAN versions 01.10.00-02.06.00 ran in VSYNC mode (it caused barely-noticed tearing because of the double refresh rate). Latest update compensates the speed by lowering multiMAN performance in XMMB mode, while keeping the outlook. It means no tearing (unless you really want it - switch with SELECT+SQUARE)..

    Opening a SIDE menu will make current entry icon zoom 8x and visible enough in 480p/576p modes. Looks pretty in photo, music, game/fave/retro columns.

    "Key Repeat Delay" for some reason was ignored when changing it... Now fixed.

    Update is available online, too.

      It needs one more thing and thats the ability to play split files. Have that and its the only manager anyone would need

      @Atko2 what do you mean? If you're talking about 4g+ files it can do that, maybe you're talking about something else?

      The 4gb+ file support is there, but you have to create a large temporary file on the internal hard drive. It kinda defeats the purpose as you might as well transfer the whole game. The cobra USB dongle is supposed to support this, but I haven't tried it yet.

      That and the ability to play the most recently released 20 games would be good. I wonder how much longer Multiman is going to be worthwhile?

      And the ability to play bluray and dvd's from disc and across the network.

      Look up iris manager and you will see what im talking about. If no then iris manager allows you to just put the 4gb+ file onto the ps3 without putting the whole game on thus saving quite a bit of room especially on the bigger games.

      multiman does the same, it takes the split file and merges it on the internal hdd...

      Sweet! DeanK is a Demi-God!!! I am having a small problem, when I go to "load" a PS3 backup, it copies a few files and then I get a "Unhandled Error", I then have to hit the PS button and quit the game, then I quit multiMAN and the game shows up in Sony XMB but I have not tried to see if the game I mounted will play or not. I will try that tonight. Anyone else getting a "Unhandled Error"?

      Thanks DeanK, I am on 2.05 and I have always updated multiMAN on the PS3 (net) will I be able to upgrade to this one from a few versions back?

      What language is your GUI set to? Probably it is related to a translation bug of some kind. I haven't seen that "unhandled error" message, but it is possible that it can happen when using non-English GUI mode.

      We're up to 02.06.03 actually:

      * Changed: Default display timing set to VSYNC = no tear (VSYNC/HSYNC modes can be switched with SELECT+SQUARE)
      * Changed: SIDE menu will 8x zoom current entry icon (in VSYNC mode)
      * Fixed: "Key Repeat Delay" option
      * Changed: Implemented OpenPS3FTP by jjolano and removed the old buggy FTP server (faster transfer speeds and no path/file length limitations). Login: anonymous | Password: <anything>

      Hey DeanK, thanks for the reply. I am using English version (USA). I can take some pictures of the problem and send them to you or post them here if you like?

      Yes, you are a Demi-God!!! :-)

      DeanK, when I am in MM and I go to load a game (Castlevania:Lords of Shadow) it does some quick copying of files and then I get the error. I have to hit the PS button to get out of it and then exit MM, when I get back to Sony XMb then game shows up but it has a different name listed (the last game I played). I will double check it tonight after I download your update on the PS3 and see if it still gives me the error. I will also try another game. I will make sure to grab some pics. I will check back here tomorrow. Thanks, Demi-God!

      @deank. Haha! perhaps you should wait about 48 hrs before releasing an update so News Reporters have time to take a rest. (just kidding).

      I have been through the PSP scene and I think for the PS3 we would need a new CFW with the most recent version of Sony's OFW (3.70?) to be able to play the newest games. Although we did have a ISO patcher for the PSP that would let us patch the new games so we could play them on the old CFW...

      Dean, I found a bug in your newest version, when you are switching between "Themes" it will keep pieces of the old theme that you had previously. Like I am using "Multi-Media Library" and I switched it to MaC OSX and then when switching back to "Multi-Media Library" it keeps some of the Mac icons and menus. Very strange.. Anyway, here is the Error I am getting when I try and load Castlevania, it only does this with the Castlevania game..Attachment 30502Attachment 30503Attachment 30504Attachment 30505Attachment 30506Attachment 30507Attachment 30508Attachment 30509Attachment 30510Attachment 30511Attachment 30512Attachment 30513Attachment 30514Attachment 30515Attachment 30516Attachment 30517Attachment 30518Attachment 30519Attachment 30520
