Package Manager 0.9 - Team Rebug

[The Central Scrutinizer]

Package Manager 0.9
March 11th, 2011

Package Manager is a replacement for the standard ★ Install Package Files option under ‘Game’ in the XMB and allows for the install and deletion of .pkg files from ‘dev_hdd0/packages’, ‘dev_usb/packages’ and the standard ★ Install Package Files locations. In addition to this, your downloaded PSN content will appear under this menu instead of cluttering your ‘Game’ menu with uninstalled content.

INSTALLATION:
1: Download the ‘Package Manager 0.9 – Installer’ package and install it on your PS3.
2: Run ‘Package Manager 0.9 – Installer’ and choose your option. (Rebug and OFW/CFW have slightly different icons in their RCO’s. THIS IS THE ONLY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO OPTIONS BELOW)

For Official Icon Set:
Press CROSS to INSTALL Package Manager 0.9
Press CIRCLE to UNINSTALL Package Manager 0.9

For Rebug Icon Set:
Press SQUARE to INSTALL Package Manager 0.9
Press TRIANGLE to UNINSTALL Package Manager 0.9

The ‘dev_hdd0/packages’ folder is created automaticly when you choose one of the above install options but if you delete it you can use the below option to create it again.

Package Folder Creation:
Press START to CREATE the ‘dev_hdd0/packages’ folder

NOTE: ‘Package Manager 0.9 – Installer’ can be uninstalled once you have installed Package Manager.

PACKAGE MANAGER OPTIONS:
Navigate to ‘Game’ in your XMB and click on ★ Package Manager (It will be where ★ Install Package Files used to be). You will find three options.

★ PlayStation®Network Content
Manage your downloaded PlayStation®Network Content.

★ Install Package Files
INSTALL package files from Storage Devices and your PS3.

PS3™ Hard Disk – (dev_hdd0/packages)
Package Folder – (dev_usb/packages)
Standard Package Location – (Standard ★ Install Package Files locations)

NOTE: The ‘Install All Packages’ is only available by pressing the TRIANGLE button when the ‘Standard Package Location’ option is highlighted because the PS3 will only install ALL packages from the root of a storage device as of the moment.

★ Delete Package Files
DELETE package files from Storage Devices and your PS3.

PS3™ Hard Disk – (dev_hdd0/packages)
Package Folder – (dev_usb/packages)
Standard Package Location – (Standard ★ Install Package Files locations)

DELETING FILES:
1: Highlight the file you would like to delete and press TRIANGLE. The sidebar should appear.
2: Press CROSS on either Unlink or Unlink(Folder) (Both do the same thing for now).

NOTE: Any files that you have Unlinked WON’T disappear from the XMB until you exit the directory!!

TODO: The delete feature while 100% working still needs a little work on the appearance (icons need fixing etc..) and maybe have a look at implimenting a Storage Device<->PS3 copy feature.

Enjoy.. Cyberskunk

BIG THANKS to Devil303 from TeamACiD for the small line of code that assisted with the delete function..

Thanks to manster for the news submuission.

=Update=

'Package Manager 0.9 – Installer 1.1' is up.. This is for both 3.41 and 3.55

This is an update to the ‘Package Manager 0.9 – Installer’ NOT ‘Package Manager’ to make it a little safer by putting in some measures to avoid accidental end-user errors when installing.

People that have already installed Packager Manager do not need to use this unless they want to remove Package Manager or recreate the 'packages' folder on their PS3.

You can store and install .pkg files from your hard drive 'dev_hdd0/packages' and from 'packages' folder on the root of your storage device. Which if you are like me and always testing and installing stuff it makes it a little easier to manage..

Also after having downloaded all my PSN content (50+ titles) but not wanting to install it all straight away it was annoying me having to scroll through it all the time, so I moved it to the Package Manager instead.. Less clutter and the XMB loads faster without all the PSN content bubbles..

how do i move all my psn content or does it only do it on items downloaded after package manager installed

It is done automaticly.. After it is installed any PSN packages (NOT installed content) will appear under..

Game->Package Manager->Playstation Network Content
