The PS5 system itself is running on pc

[u/3nnb]

Recently, we have seen massive developments in PS5 emulators (such as shadPS4 and Kyty), and how rapidly they have progressed in a short period.

​Now, developers have successfully booted the actual PS5 system software on PC.

​If this momentum continues in the future, it will eventually allow players to run PS5 exclusives directly on PC, marking the end of the era of console exclusivity.

2-3 weeks? Lol. The only hypervisor exploit known was just patched in 4.10 by Sony. It would be miraculous if gta vi files could even be dumped in one month. Emulation of games, sure, finding exploits isn't remotely as easy or the same. If you follow the jailbreak and emulation scene people are not as hopeful after the Jordy incident.

Is this in reference to the jailbreak where you change your IP address in system settings and it opens a jailbreak window that jailbreaks your fully updated PS5?

[u/Disastrous-Ad-1999 → u/BravestCashew]

That's just a method of jailbreaking, doesn't really have anything to do with what I said. And no it doesn't jailbreak your fully updated ps5. There are no jailbreak for 14.00 and above.

doesnt matter, someone will rip the game from the console.

if we can run the os on an emulator, someone will find a way to read the filesystem on a pc.

there are several other methods to rip a game from a console.

[u/ithinkitslupis → u/Melodic-Luck-8772]

...it's encrypted. You aren't just finding a way to read the filesystem and decrypt a PS5 pkg on PC because you can run decrypted parts of PS5's OS.

There really aren't several other methods. If someone wants to try one without software based dumping through a jailbreak that would be awesome, but it would also be the first confirmed time of it happening to a PS5 game.

These people are just straight up talking out of their ass and getting upvoted because it sounds nice.

[u/Melodic-Luck-8772 → u/-CODED-]

welll... no. ive seen games getting ripped while playing them.

ive seen filesystems and encryption hacked.

would not wonder me if encryption keys lying around somewhere.

other than that: someone will eventually find a hardware exploit.

it just doesnt seem nice, it has to potential to happen.

well see.

with the operating system running in an emulator its possible to see which libarys the ps5 is using.
this is huge and is going to speed up progress exponentially.

[u/Disastrous-Ad-1999 → u/Melodic-Luck-8772]

The whole point is an exploit was found, was kept secret for GTA VI, but somebody decided to report it to Sony for bounty money. There aren't just an infinite amount of exploits to find, and if there was one found, would it be reported again?

You've seen games being ripped while playing them on a non-jailbroken ps5? Yes the decryption keys are lying about somewhere. It's called the firmware.

[u/Melodic-Luck-8772 → u/Disastrous-Ad-1999]

i know that story. pretty bad backstab.

but hey, we will eventually find a way before gta 6 release.
its gonna happen, i have no doubt about that.

one way, or another.

[u/Bad_Bad_Bad_Good_Bad → u/Melodic-Luck-8772]

You're talking out of your ass mate. It is by no means guaranteed than another firmware exploit will be found for whichever PS5 firmware GTA6 ends up requiring.

[u/-CODED- → u/Melodic-Luck-8772]

I was referring mainly to shinyreddwarf and his confident timeframe.

[u/Disastrous-Ad-1999 → u/Melodic-Luck-8772]

The whole OS isn't running in this video... This is just basically the visual interface running. What several other methods are there lol?

[u/ITuser999 → u/Disastrous-Ad-1999]

My bet is someone somehow makes GTA6 being playable on the 13.6 firmware and thus dumpable.

[u/Disastrous-Ad-1999 → u/ITuser999]

Amazing wizardry if they can do that without the game /s

Backporting requires the game to first be dumped which is the whole issue.

[u/ITuser999 → u/Disastrous-Ad-1999]

Yeah that's what I meant. Maybe you can somehow trick the store to let you download the game on the older version. Then it should be able to be dumped if there isn't any other protection on the game.

[u/syopest → u/ITuser999]

Downloading the game isn't the problem. The files are encrypted and the keys to decrypt the files are in the firmware that's required to run it.

[u/ITuser999 → u/syopest]

ah ok mb then. Makes sense that it works this way. This then makes it a lot harder if there isn't any other weakness for upcoming firmware found.

[u/Disastrous-Ad-1999 → u/ITuser999]

You can download. You can't run or decrypt to dump. And if you're on 3.60 and below you can't even connect to psn.
