Hacking Anyone has wave0.fbxd and wave1.fbxd from pre-3.70 firmware?

[randy_w]

So I came across 0x199's twitter today and it gave me the idea of bringing old pre-3.70 wave back.

I've been researching the background wave on PS4 and if it's possible to change the wave colors, like what we had on PS3.

PS4 uses a .fbxd format, which is probably a custom 3D .fbx format. This file isn't signed by the PS4 itself so changes to this file will stick after reboot.

IMO old wave looks better because it's more vibrant. Here's what it looks like on pre-3.70 firmware:

I tried to extract these files from decrypted firmware but it seems like wave files aren't included in normal update file, and I can't decrypt old recovery firmware anymore as I'm on 7.02 (left: decrypted firmware, right: files on my ps4)


Could anyone upload these wave files from pre-3.70 firmware? Thanks in advance.

Obviously we cannot share those files here.

Are these files copyright protected or something? Because I saw 0x199 shared the eboot.bin and wave files on twitter so I assume it's not the case.

those files might be fine (dunno about the eboot though), because I know psx place always mods at least of official files. it may be different if it's the official files, but a lot of modding apps have the official files in them, so that you can revert back. and, psx place has restrictions against copyright files as well, so maybe no one knows for sure if they're okay.

I did post some of my modded ps3 files on temp a long time ago, including a coldboot and a wave, and no one ever said anything. though, I don't know who all saw it. I remember someone asking me what the files were for, because I assumed anyone using them would know, so I didn't leave a description.

I found the coldboot I made: https://gbatemp.net/threads/habib-coldboot.487103/

and, while looking for it, I saw an official coldboot either remade or lifted from the old ps3 firmwares in the download section. that's one file it doesn't matter if you mess up on or even delete it, the system won't soft brick, so it may be the old version.

Reviving this thread but not sure why it meant here, PS3 waves are different from PS4

I know. That wasn't the point of my post.

Damn, so nobody has those files? I'm sure there are people who collect those old firmwares
