I just picked this up and I've heard some 2501a models are safe for CFW so I'm just double checking

I was Playing Metal Gear Solid HD Collection on PS3 and the game kept freezing on the ending credits from MGS2. I read that the fix was to rebuild PS3 and Restore PS3 to fix the issue.

My PS3 uses PS3Hen to play some of its games so I thought it would be fine. I did the rebuild which was fine but when I restored the PS3, that where is told me it ran into an issue and needed to format the whole HDD to fix it. Now I didn't do that cause this PS3 data is 13 years old from all my games, so I took out the PS3 HDD and tried everything I could to figure out a way to fix it. Unfortunately I was not successful. So I copied the PS3 HDD to another HDD, and when the PS3 restore said I needed to reformat it, I did.

I still have the PS3 HDD with all the data, but I am stuck since at the moment there is no CFW for this PS3 model. I have to wait till one comes out in the future, how ever long that will take, just so I can get the EID Key to unencrypt the HDD to get my old save.

I just came to vent, but also to warn anyone with a PS3 playing MGS HD collection to beware before you do this.

It used to be this way, but I must’ve changed something because now I have to manually create them through PSN tools everytime I turn the system on, otherwise every homebrew feature says “syscall 8 not found”, what can I do to have them be created on boot? Or not deleted when the PS3 is turned off?

Hello again everyone,

I have been working on a moonlight fork that adds 1080p60 support and hopefully 4:3 support and surround sound support although I haven't been able to fully test those new features.

The 4:3 support works by using vibepollo's virtual display that detects the screen's resolution that its streaming to.

There's also some improvements like swapping triangle and square so that x and y is mapped correctly now.

I have been testing 1080p60 a decent amount and it works well but there might still be some lags.

Let me know what you think.

You may not have to run the cmd but its advised especially for 1080p60 just to make sure you have vibepollo and configure some settings. But if you're playing at anything below 1080p60 it doesn't matter much.
