PS4Load

PS4Load

PS4Load is based on the PSL1GHT PS3load sample, now built using the Open Orbis SDK.

I hope this version helps you build PS4 homebrews easily!

Features

• You can load SELF files using the network.
• You can upload and extract ZIP files to /data/ over the network.

Usage

Install the package on your PS4. Open the PS4Load host app, and then use the ps3load client to send your eboot.bin or .zip file:

Linux/macOS

export PS3LOAD=tcp:192.168.x.x
./ps3load /path/to/eboot.bin

Windows

set PS3LOAD=tcp:192.168.x.x
ps3load.exe \path\to\eboot.bin

Building

You need to have installed:

• Open Orbis SDK
• Zlib library
• Zip library
• SDL2 library
• dbglogger library

Run make to create a release build.

You can also set the PS3LOAD environment variable to the PS4 IP address: export PS3LOAD=tcp:x.x.x.x. This will allow you to use a ps3load client and send eboot.bin directly to the PS4Load host.

PS4Load will also send debug messages to UDP multicast address 239.255.0.100:30000. To receive them you can use socat on your computer:

$ socat udp4-recv:30000,ip-add-membership=239.255.0.100:0.0.0.0 -
