Does it happen randomly, right away or only after a while? Fan speeds ramp up?

It happens randomly, like after exiting a game after holding the PS button and clicking "Yes" with an external HDD connected to my PS3.

I don't think so, since this can happen right after turning the PS3 on.

If hen grab newest if cfw grab newest. I would grab newest Webman as well. Setup reboot test.

I already have CFW installed and I don't want webMAN MOD.

The only instance to need activating a PSN account would be to have the content playable/readable or re-downloaded. That's about it, I reckon.

I thought what needed to be activated was the PS3 user, not the PSN account. And when does that have to be done, after swapping the PS3's HDD/eMMC/SSD/SSHD or the PS3 itself, after formatting the latter or after changing the PSN account?

On PS4 I backed up and moved to another PS4, it didn't work immediately, I had to log in so it'd recognize my license.

I honestly dislike PS4 with OFW because media apps are hidden away than on the dashboard.

Also, there were times one had to update the PS Store app to be able to sign into PSN. Was it the PS Store app or PSN?
Cool go grab newest all and come back and let us know. YW.

You mean, you had to register the PSN account again? I wanted the PS5 to have a setting to hide games from the UI. The only solution is to delete them but I don't want to reinstall them every time I delete them and I want to play them.

I already have the latest CFW. I had this issue in the previous PS3 on both OFW and CFW and in this PS3 on both OFW and CFW.

Like I said, the PS3 also beeps thrice and restarts when exiting IRISMAN after holding the PS button and clicking "Yes" after uploading files from the PC to the console with FileZilla Client and with an USB device connected to it and the PS3 also often freezes when returning to XMB from IRISMAN after pressing the Circle button and clicking "Yes" after uploading files from the PC to the console with FileZilla Client and with an USB device connected to it and when clicking the PS3's power button, the console beeps thrice and turns off.

Weird, lately, when exiting IRISMAN, the PS3 often freezes so I have to manually turn it off. I don't know if this happens because before exiting it I transferred some files from the PC to the PS3 via FTP.
the only thing I can think of is that it's the hdd. you could try to rebuild the file system in the recovery menu or try reinstalling the firmware. if their works, it's probably the hdd.

    @Xdqwerty there is health behaviour you can add to your character, then to use a health bar is lil more complicated, google n watch a few tutorial video on it, be too hard to explain here.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, the character has the health behavior
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I know you have to create a health and health max variable. Then there is a calculation you use in code to subtract width size of the health bar. Google few vids.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, the "greenflatbar" is one of the preset health bars btw
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea you can use any bar/sprite. It will just change the width. Ok good luck and have fun. I'm off to go shoot some pool at the bar. Talk to you later.
