PS1 Backups working on CFW 3.55 with multiMAN 02.07.07+
****THIS DOES NOT WORK FOR PS2 GAMES.****
It seems a German ps3 Dev named ScHeVeNs has found a way to play PS1 burned backups using multiMAN.
hi there,
I am ScHeVeNs a German PS3 Developer,
I have found a way, to boot any burned PS1 Backup Game, its not very hard to make…
Requirements:
PS3 with 3.55CFW
(maybe also a 3.41 machine, but not tested in moment!) ( I use Rebug 3.55.2 for that )
multiMAN latest version!
PS1 Backup on burned Disk
……
Start your PS3,
Insert your burned PS1 Copy,
start multiMAN,
go to filemanager mode,
search for:
dev_flashps1emu,
Press X on ps1_emu.self
Tada, your Ps1 Backup will now boot and you see the PSLogo Bootscreen.
maybe this works also on PS2 Games Backups but i have a PS3 slim….and can not test this!
Have fun with this….
And give $ony a slap in her ….. face.
greetings ScHeVeNs
this is living!!!
First the Duplex thing now this…wow the scene can take a turn for the better all in a matter of one day…plus the progress of the n64 emu…Looking good

UPDATE 1:
Tons of new updates on this news story over the past several hours.
First off, deank has updated multiMAN to version 02.07.06, this new update allows PSX discs appear in XMMB Game column allowing you to boot PS1 games from there. You can grab the download HERE.
Second, SAVE GAME FILES ARE NOT CURRENTLY WORKING.
There also is a compatibility list out there, I am mirrioring the tested ones here but honestly most of the games will work with this method and there may be a very small percent that don’t.

Stay tuned for more developments with us @PS3Hax.
UPDATE 2
PS3Hax member CaptainCPS-X has posted more information on how to get SAVE GAME to work, to quote:
- Turn on you PS3 console
- DONT open multiMAN
- In the GAME column look for “Memory Card Utility (PS/PS2)”
- Create a PS1 memory card
- Set it to Slot 1 (Press Triangle while selecting the Memory Card, then Assign it)
- Now, run multiMAN
- Insert your backup disc
- Load it
- Play
- Memory Card is in Slot 1, no need to mess with it anymore.

UPDATE 3:
Another multiMAN update by deank brining version to 02.07.07.
To quote:
multiMAN ver 02.07.07 UPDATE (20110928-161900).pkg (1.75 MB)
In this update about PSX games (FW 3.55 only):
* Proper management for Memory Card 1 and Memory Card 2 (thanks to moogie and squarepusher for the emulator debug log)
* The name of the memory card may be anything you wish
* Setting “Screen Mode” to “Full”
* Setting “Smoothing” to “On”
* Detecting PSX discs with Audio tracks (now all PSX discs detected properly)
If you want “Saves” and “Memory Cards” to work, make sure that your CREATE at least one memory card in XMB/Memory Card Utility (PS/PS2).
Have in mind that EVEN if you don’t assign a slot for a memory card from XMB, multiMAN will search for your memory cards and will assign all of them in the emulator. Do not use the “Assign Slots” menu in the emulator – it will freeze. The cards will be already assigned.
For all this to work you must launch the game from the PSX black disc icon in XMMB Game column and not the emulator self!
