ModChat 148 - PS5 Hypervisor Drama, Xbox 360 Softmod Details Revealed, Switch 2 Game Binary Dumped
Lend your eyes and ears to the longest ModChat episode in a while! Due to missing last month's episode, I decided to have two months worth of content into a single episode and... Well, here we are with a nearly two hour episode! PS5 drama around the hypervisor, new PS4 and PS5 jailbreaks, PSX/PS2 love, and of course tons of new developments released and incoming for the Xbox 360. This is without a doubt one of the busiest times in the modding world I've seen, and that doesn't include the countless game ports we're seeing either! Oh yeah, several of those get some love here.
We've got a bit of everything this time around for ModChat! Recompilations are picking up more steam thanks to ModernGekko paired with DolRecomp. The 3DS gets a low level emulator, and the PS5 gets big news on TWO emulators! Both Switch and Switch 2 get a userland exploit teased on them. We've also got some substantial ports such as Unreal Tournament on the original Xbox, a whole Dreamcast emulator also for the original Xbox, and a Half-Life port teased for the PS1 of all things. Oh, and if you're smart with the PS5 and like money, you might want to stay tuned for the jailbreak bounty from FULU.

ModChat 146 - PCIe 3 SSDs on PS5, System246/256 Emulation, Bad Update Standby Mode, PS1USB Dev Cart
Looks like these hour or longer episodes might be the standard for ModChat now, huh? That's just how much has been happening recently! P2JB on PS5 gets ported to multiple entry points, but that's not all for the exciting bits! There's been discoveries made over how to get around the PCIe 4.0 SSD limitation the PS5 implemented, as well as some awesome further developments and applications being made to help the PS5 scene even further. The PS2 gets some arcade love thanks to the PCSX2x6 emulator, making System246 and System256 emulation accessible and possible. Bad Update or ABadAvatar users also get to see a whole new feature added to the Xbox 360 thanks to a standby mode being developed! The PS1 also gets some love between a solderless ODE and the PS1USB development cartridge. Tune in, listen, and enjoy for more modding news!
