ModChat 145 - PS4 & PS5 Licensing Changes Explained, PS5 Linux Loader Released, 12.70 PS5 Jailbreak

Now, for our first share here, it's actually right in the name.

This is from musebrat1, and this is InexShare, which I'd seen on my timeline and I thought was pretty interesting.

This here, as it states, is a Nintendo Switch homebrew app to transfer your screenshots and videos to any device via browser.

So this is really nice here if you have a modified Switch, if you're able to run custom firmware, and the Switch is a system that I absolutely love messing around with, modding, using, all that fun stuff there.

So being able to have a, i- i- in my opinion here, better way of getting screenshots, uh, without having to, you know, hook up through USB, use the micro SD card, um, share or any of that.

Like, there's a sharing option that's officially there where essentially the Switch has its own little web server, but this one looks like this.

It is technically a web server that is running here, but it just stays on your network, and then you can use your desktop, your phone, your tablet, whatever it is, to end up accessing the URL that it gives you.

And you can see right here, it's just that over port 8080.

And then you have this really nice screen here where it's able to separate out screenshots, videos, divide it up by games, uh, homebrew, home screen errors, all that stuff you're seeing there.

A- a- and this just looks...

Th- this is a really nice way of doing it.

So, uh, if you're wanting to get some screenshots and videos off your Switch in a little bit of a more optimal way and you have custom firmware on here, you might wanna give InexShare a try.

Now, this is a development that is not new here by any means, but I feel like, uh, I, as well as many other people, kind of heard about this at the same time, despite it being in development for a while.

But this here is Tico, which is also for the Switch, and this here is not an emulator itself.

It states here that this is the first custom emulation frontend for Nintendo Switch, which is a controller-first, native C++ interface designed for performance, simplicity, and long-term portability.

If you're wondering what Tico is, it states here that it is a multi-platform emulation frontend focused on delivering a console-quality user experience.

Instead of file browsers, configuration menus, and fragmented tools, Tico provides a unified interface that automatically organizes games, manages assets, and launches emulator cores, none of which are included in the Tico binary itself.

It is designed to feel like a real console UI, not a development tool.

So w- we can probably take some guesses over what it might be talking about, what other frontend it might be discussing, but it is not naming it here.

However, you could see for the screenshots they supply, this is the actual home screen.

This is how the games and such will look on here.

This is your console selection.

So it's a really nice interface.

Now, people might be wondering, w- what, what is the deal with this here? Uh, why are we talking about a new frontend on the Switch? Uh, well, it's been in development for several months already, but it ended up having a really big splash a few weeks ago, specifically with 0.70 right here, in which it states that GameCube and Wii joins the party.

Now, it also looks like So this ended up getting support for the Dolphin core right here, which plays both GameCube and Wii, and also states here that the Dolphin core enables boost mode by default.
