PS3:PS3netsrv

PS3netsrv is a program that allows Multiman or Webman to play game backups that are stored on your PC. It comes as a standalone program, or bundled with AldosTools.

Note that PS2ISO will not directly play over the network. Due to how the PS2 emulators work on PS3, it will always be copied to the internal hard drive before launching.

Using PS3netsrv on Windows

 * You will need:
 * The latest PS3netsrv extracted on your PC

 * 3) * If using Windows 10, you may have to copy MSCOMCTL.OCX to C:\Windows\SysWOW64\, hold Win+X on your keyboard, and choose Command Prompt (Admin). Enter the command "regsvr32 MSCOMCTL.OCX" and press Enter.
 * 4) Click the "..." box to browse to the folder where your games are held on your PC and click start. Two folders should be created ("GAMES" and "PS3ISO"). Place games in folder format in the GAMES folder, PS3 ISOs in the PS3ISO folder, and so on. Other possible folders would be PS2ISO, PSXISO, PSPISO, BDISO, DVDISO.
 * 5) Games will now appear in your games list after refreshing it or rebooting your console.

 * 1) * The latest PS3 Net Server GUI for MacOS (1.1b).
 * 2) * The latest PS3netsrv extracted on your PC.


 * 1) Launch PS3 Net Server GUI.
 * 2) Create a folder to be shared out. Create a folder inside of it called GAMES, and another called PS3ISO. Place your games in folder format in the GAMES folder, PS3 ISOs in the PS3ISO folder, and so on. Other possible folders would be PS2ISO, PSXISO, PSPISO, BDISO, DVDISO.

Using PS3netsrv on Linux

 * You will need:
 * If you have an x86 or x64 CPU:
 * The latest ps3netsrv source code
 * The binary is in the directory `_Projects_/ps3netsrv/bins/Linux`. Binaries for other systems might be there as well.
 * If it doesn't work for you or you have another architecture (i.e. ARM):
 * You must compile ps3netsrv yourself. Make sure you have the standard build tools package from your distro installed (Debian/Ubuntu/Armbian/Raspbian: `build-essential`, Arch/Manjaro: `base-devel`). Then download the tarball.


 * 1) Compile as follows:
 * 2) * For 64 bit Linux:
 * untar -xvf 1.47.09.tar.gz
 * cd webMAN-MOD-1.47.09/\_Projects\_/ps3netsrv
 * chmod +x Make.sh
 * ./Make.sh
 * 1) * For 32 bit Linux (tested on Raspbian 32 bit and Ubuntu 17.10 32 bit):
 * untar -xvf 1.47.09.tar.gz
 * cd webMAN-MOD-1.47.09/\_Projects\_/ps3netsrv
 * mv Makefile Makefile.untouched
 * unrar e -y bins/old/raspberry_pi/raspberry_pi.20160923/ps3netsrv-pi_src.rar ps3netsrv-pi/Makefile
 * make
 * 1) * The result is the executable binary file "ps3netsrv" in your current directory.
 * 2) Create a directory to host your games, and inside of it create the subfolders in all capital letters: GAMES and PS3ISO. Place games in folder format in the GAMES folder, PS3 ISOs in the PS3ISO folder, and so on. Other possible folders would be PS2ISO, PSXISO, PSPISO, BDISO, DVDISO. Ensure the user running ps3netsrv has full read access to all files in the directory.
 * 3) Execute the command `./ps3netsrv ` with being the directory that contains the subfolders.,
