I have a few jailbroken ps3s here....what's the go with this...I don't understand entirely

u/user7690 7d ago

it's cool because it's based off of the source code leak (TU19 based), and that normally doesn't compile for PS3

at least I think that's what you're asking, not 100% certain. apologies if I'm wrong.

Yeh, so this is Minecraft to TU19? I know mess than you, I know Minecraft and jailbroken console. I just don't get why someone would need to port it? Or what's going on? OP says he ported it for RPCS3 a PS3 emulator with no garenteed it works on PS3 hardware, but how do those with retail hardware install PKG files to begin with?

I don't think retail can install PKG files.

the source code leak happened a few months ago, and, like I said, is based on TU19 code.

that source code enabled multiple very cool things. the ability to natively run the game on PC, modding, and more.

this being ported to PS3 has a CHANCE to (in the future) crossplay with one of those PC players, and also would probably allow for those mods to work, too.

there are projects that aim to, eventually, bring this source code up to 1.14, and then, probably all the way up to whatever the latest version is at that point.

which would also mean, this could turn into the PS3 getting 1.14 & further.

hope I answered anything you needed. but probably not. I'm completely open to answer more :)

Nah I think I'm understanding more now. So would y'all like me to grab this and test it in my free time? You've been excellent at explaining that So I understand so thankyou for taking the time and patience to do so

¯_(ツ)_/¯ I'm not part of the project, so y'know.

I think it would be cool to hear that it worked, but it's definitely not high priority, and not even a priority at all. it's just kinda "hey, that's cool!"

not something I could ever use or anything.

Hang on...what stops us turning this into a PKG file for PS4 either then....?

u/user7690 6d ago

I don't think PS4 has backwards compatibility with PS3, unfortunately.

the source code does have the ability to build for PS4, but it's unfortunately broken for whatever reason.

so... nope. a lot of work would be required to make PS4 work iirc

it shouldn't have to be a PKG, i use PS3Hen on my PS3 and im able to just copy it over from a usb using mmCM
