Aldo Vargas is most remembered in the PS3 scene for his amazing collection of Windows tools. However, he has also jumped into the Iris Manager fork community too. IRISMAN is a lot like its official counterpart except it adds some GUI tweaks and what the developer feels is a better control scheme. In this particular version we see menu changes made during the ISO creation process, the removal of ads, and increased FTP ability. Check out the full release log below!

This is an steroid "unofficial" version of Iris Manager 2.65 by Estwald/D-Skywalk. This version includes all the nice Cobra features added by Estwald in 2.60 and the new ISO functions of 2.65. The changes that I made are mainly related to the user interface (buttons layout are more XMB-like, quick access to File Manager, progress bar when game list is scanned or file permissions are applied, colors, 4 gui modes, etc.). It also includes the Payloads for 4.41DEX/4.46DEX/4.50DEX and the grids 8x6 and 6x4 from Rancid-O's PS3ITA Manager and Payload for 4.53 CEX from HABIB. The most notable feature is that unlike the official version, it scans GAMES/GAMEZ/GAMES_DUP/GAMES_BAD on the external drives.

New in 2.65-2:

• Fixed label for Build ISO menu.
• Menu now use for:
  
  • O = Cancel, X = Accept, Triangle = No.
• Added ability to abort in the "calc_entries" stage of the build ISO process
