How to compile multiMAN

@dean:

in makefile and makefile.multiman there are lines like

@$(MAKE_SELF_NPDRM) ./objs/$(MM_REL)_BOOT.elf $(RELEASE)$(NPDRM)/USRDIR/EBOOT.BIN $(CONTENT_ID) > nul

the >nul at the end of these lines should be >/dev/null

otherwise a file named nul will be created that can't be deleted from windows side (luckily it can be deleted from cygwin shell)

We don't need a clone but a few changes and new features would be great.

Thanks for the hint! FTP working now :) lulz it might not have been a "hint" but since I'm new to this I had to decipher exactly what you meant lol "root-jail" through me off at first. Thanks for the tip!

Also Thanks for this Ozay! I was having a hard time removing the nul file myself but got around to it. Your recommendation has since fixed that problem. Thanks.

/bin/sh make_self_npdrm error 127 command not found, trying compile multiman got that, any ideas?...make mm

You don't have make_self_npdrm.exe in your enviroment. You can download my CygwinMini.rar in this topic or dean's EBOOTFIX package in multiMAN topic.

Well before I identify the specifics, I'm going to point you to:

Had you done this, Your error would be fixed ;)

Now to identify the error, I believe it's because you need psl1ght's lv2.h and types.h files. These files would need to be in "/cell/target/ppu/include/psl1ght" I suggest you download ozayturay's CywinMini, the aforementioned files are in his package ;)

Time for my question. I've noticed upon installing a build of mine, in the BLES80608/USDIR folder in the ps3, there are 3 unusual files. MM_NON_NPDRM_EBOOT.BIN, MM_NPDRM_EBOOT.BIN, and MM_NPDRM_RELOAD.SELF. I have no clue where these come from and how they are injected into the .pkg build process. I do believe these 3 files are what's making my build 1.16MB as opposed to Deans 551KB. A little insight on this will be appreciated :)

I'm doing it with cygwin ozayturays but got that error, someone can help me?...greatings

These three files are definitely not a part of multiMAN's makefile, nor are required.

MM_NON_NPDRM_EBOOT.BIN, MM_NPDRM_EBOOT.BIN, and MM_NPDRM_RELOAD.SELF may only appear if you used shadow copy or ebootFIX or some other weird combination, but I can't think of a reason why you would do that.

After a successfull "make mm" you must get only EBOOT.BIN (34KB) and RELOAD.SELF (495KB) in the NPDRM_RELEASE/USRDIR folder of the package.

Files prefixed by "MM_NON_NPDRM" and "MM_NPDRM" are used by multiMAN in conjunction with ebootFIX (which generates them) and the shadow copy function (which moves and renames them properly to the actual names), to provide a way to launch PSN/XMB styled games.

Delete the objs and bin folder and try again.

Code:

---

rm -rf objs
rm -rf bin
make mm
