Playing backups of PS3 games while connected to the internet can be seriously risky business. However, KW's PSNPatch has done a pretty incredible job of making the process as risk free as humanly possible. This most recent update cuts back on the amount of syscalls used by the app and the plugin, so it should be a little safer to try. There are updated stealth extensions, game patching, and version spoofing in all parts of the operating system in this particular revision. You can grab the latest build of webMAN here as well. Check out the full release notes below!

[2.14] Jan/05/2014

As there have been several releases in the past days, here's a quick summary of changes since 2.00 (Changes for 2.14 are marked with *)

• Patch 4.50 (and above) games and apps (like psn store) to run in 4.46 systems;
• Integrity check;
• psnpatch plugin updated.
• Official webman 1.28 included (no more issues when unloading webman when using fan control);
• Cobra Stealth exensions updated for the best stealth after activation (compatible with any 4.46 cobra edition, and habib's 4.53 cobra edition up to 1.04). HIGHLY RECOMENDED for version spoofed systems. Optional otherwise;
  
  • Cobra plugin management menu: installs cobra stealth extensions, psnpatch plugin, webman and XMB webman support (adds "my games" and removes app_home);
  • PSNpatch cobra plugin updated to unload itself from memory, delete execution history, safety mode, display messages on-screen, waits 20 secs on-boot to avoid conflicts with other plugins;
  • Released as 1 ZIP file with 2 ALTERNATIVE packages (normal and stealth), cfg example and the entire documentation (please read before asking);
  • (Note for cobra advanced users and devs: don't fiddle with the "files" folder contents if you don't know what you're doing);
• Updated description for version 2.14 (read bellow);

NOTES:

• When a new psnpatch version is installed in cobra systems, "cobra plugin management" menu should be used to remove and then re-install every plugin and extensions;
• When CFW is disabled, syscall dependent homebrew and payloads will stop working;
• if a game gives black screen after disabling cfw, try mounting as ISO.
• As usual, everything is detailed bellow;
• Please read CAREFULLY the following text. All should be explained here;
• If you have any tech doubts or issues when using psnpatch, please use the official support forum: Tortuga Cove
