nXMB: Patch Dev Flash for PS1/PS2 Games in PS3 JailBreak Mode

[robo989]

So this doesn't allow backups - only originals to play right?

Just simplifying by removing the need to reboot to normal mode from jb mode.

Does this make it easier for PS1 support to be added to the Backup Managers? A few people on PS3 News are saying it shouldn't be too hard to do for PS1 games, what we do with PS3 games (emulating discs), since now we have access to PS1 games from within JB.

Obviously PS2 games are a different matter, since when the PS3s boot into that mode the exploit doesn't function.

With this patch I can play licensed games from PS2 to PS3 Slim?

well if you read it said "PS2 games also work if you have a backwards compatible ps3 console"
the answer is NO

it's possible to play PSX backups on disc with this?
the Disc Drive will read this?

This is old...A few weeks after the JB came out someone on THESE forums patched the XMB file. I have the thread saved at home. I didn't even know you couldn't play PS2/PSX games until I saw that thread, then I dumped my own dev_flash and loaded the custom file in it...It worked and if I recall, STILL had Install Packages option...

they really made it sound like this allows backups on MaxConsole.net.

Tutorial seems not clear too ?

Step 1: Connect via FTP and get your dev_flash (to your computer) and be carefull not to mess with it on your ps3
Step 2: Move your dev_flash you've download using FTP and the nXMB patch into a new folder on your pc (NOT THE CONTENTS, BUT THE DEV_FLASH FOLDER ITSELF).
Step 3: Open/execute nXMB on your pc and let it patch your dev_flash
Step 4: Copy the contents of that dev_flash to your USB Flash Disk
Step 5: Launch USB Firm Loader

1: What about moving Flash_Dev ?? copying to pc and moving it on PC it's not the same as moving it on PS3 ! Could be misinterpreted and brick some ps3 to newbies!
2: Again how do you execute the patch and where pc or ps3?? ... assuming i'am a newb i could put it in my ps3 :/

Consider that people is not as smart or experienced or understanding english as good as you ;D

Thanks for your effort ! Hope to see improvement for a future backup/region free mode

Some of you might remember that issue with MGS4 at the start of Act 4, just after the mission brief, causing the game to automatically go back to the XMB. Obviously I'm talking about playing MGS4 with backup manager from the hdd.

Well that specific part of the game involves you playing some scene from MGS1, which was a PSX game. I suppose that the game crash comes because PSX emulation is disabled when the console is jailbroken.

Has anybody tried to play that chapter with this thing? I think it could be the solution to the problem
