Updated to v1.2
- new icon (thanks fraser0206)
- sram support
- option saving
- state select in game (using right analog stick)
- multiple bug fixes

I am in the process of completely revamping our framework. One of the changes to come will be an easy way for us to map input therefore allowing the end users to as well. Expect to see custom controller mapping in fceu and snes9x in a few days.

Download it using the Homebrew Manager or get the regular download here.

This is an update to the PS3 Homebrew Manager. Below is some information for those not familiar with it.

This is a Java Applet that will download homebrew or game updates you select directly to your PS3 by FTP. It is a Java applet so that it runs all ALL OSes and is always up to date when you visit.

Requirements:
- Any OS that supports Java
- Java 1.5+

Major Changes:
- now allows you to search for and directly download PS3 game updates (more features around this coming)
- new administrator feature allows multiple trusted people to update, not just me. (so will be up to date quicker)
- a bunch of bug fixes

squarepusher2 has just released a new version of the SNES9x emulator.

Here is the changelog:

Build 4.3.8 (23-10-2010) – rev. number 768cf9df52
————————————————-
* Updated to new SNES9x version – now runs the following games that didn’t work previously (or had noise instead of sound):
- Earthworm Jim 2
- NBA Hangtime
- MS Pac Man
* PSGL driver built and in use – speed is now better at 1080p than it was previously at 480p. There’s still a resolution switch, but there’s no need anymore to switch to 480p – speed is the same at 1080p as it is on 480p, and it’s damn good for the record. Enjoy.
* All resolutions supported now
* Added simple hardware filtering settings – Linear Interpolation and Point Filtering. Shaders will come later.
* Added Aspect Ratio settings – 4:3 and 16:10 (HDTVs with 16:9 aspect ratio might experience that on 16:10, the screen might be slightly cut-off. We’re working on a proper aspect ratio setting for 16:9)
* Can now load configurable settings from snes9x.conf file stored in the USRDIR folder. Saving of this file will come in the next release.
* Will now select the highest resolution your TV/monitor can support – so is no longer set to default at 480p.
* No more performance difference between 1.92 pkg and 3.41 pkg.

Nik (also known as MonkeyMaximus) has just released the third Java Applet in the PS3 Homebrew Suite on Brewology.com/ called the PS3 Update Finder!! It goes perfectly with the previously released tools to download homebrew straight to your PS3 from the internet and to download PSN content without the need to log into the PSN!! It was only a little while ago that the homebrew manager was released to save people much time. No longer did they have to get their homebrew from online sources from all over and install them onto their computers, and then FTP them over to the PS3. The site does it automatically. And guess what! It’s very, very secure! We store no personal information on our sites, whatsoever!

What exactly does this new Applet do? Well, it’s an Update Finder that is based in Java so it isn’t limited to solely the Windows OS. All you have to do is enter your Game ID for the game you want to search for, and a list of updates and patches will be returned that you can easily cue up to be downloaded all at once. That simple.
Come check out the new Java-Based Applet over at Brewology.com/ today!

The developer AerialX released PSL1GHT. It is an Open Source Software Development Kit, which will compile your homebrew for your PS3. This is a huge step as it allows Homebrew developers to make homebrew that is legal for the PS3.

Some notes

PSL1GHT is a lightweight PlayStation 3 homebrew SDK, provided as a temporary
way to compile user apps to run from the XMB using the open-source PS3
toolchains available.

Environment
———–

A GCC toolchain that supports the PowerPC 64bit architecture is required to
build PSL1GHT and its samples.
[This](http://www.bsc.es/plantillaH.php?cat_id=579) is the only toolchain
that I test with and can guarantee support for.
[ps3chain](http://github.com/HACKERCHANNEL/ps3chain) probably works just as
well, as should marcan’s [AsbestOS](http://git.marcansoft.com/?p=asbestos.git)
toolchain, and ooPo’s [ps3toolchain](http://github.com/ooPo/ps3toolchain).
Some toolchains will probably already use newlib, and may make the included
newlib unnecessary.

Status
——

At the moment, PSL1GHT has basic libc support, with stdout debugging, file
access, etc. It doesn’t have any way to access the screen/graphics. You can
call lv2 syscalls and do some fun stuff with that, but it doesn’t link to
PS3 dynamic libraries yet which is where all the exciting functionality
comes in. Also, a make_fself equivalent is still missing.

Check out the Git Depot

v1.0 features:
* Show TITLE ID above the cover
* Re-add disc_less mode in pl3 (but this time it works)
* Fix mem patching on Hermes (now it’s enabled ONLY on game launching)
* Merge from OpenBM 1.17.1 to fix disc-less mode without any discless menu option (PL3 only)

Download it here or better yet get it through the PS3 Homebrew Manager!
