PS4 Server 7.55 Project for ESP8266 D1 Mini Pro by Stooged
Since his previous PS4 Internal Webserver Project, xPloitServer for Android and PS5 Server for ESP8266 D1 Mini Pro today PlayStation 4 Scene developer @stooged made available a PS4 Server 7.55 Project for the ESP8266 D1 Mini Pro or other 16MB ESP8266 boards to provide a WiFi HTTP server and DNS server. 
Download: PS4-Server-755-main.zip / GIT
From the README.md: PS4 Server 7.55
This is a project designed for the esp8266 D1 Mini PRO or other 16mb esp8266 boards to provide a wifi http server and dns server.
The 7.55 exploit seems to have issues with serving the files from the esp device so with this project i have decided to use the cache function.
On the first load of the main page the exploit files will all be stored on the console and then the esp device can be removed.
Due to the size of the exploit files you must use a esp8266 board that has 16mb of storage.
The firmware is updatable via http and the exploit files can be managed via http.
You can access the main page from the userguide or the consoles webbrowser.
Implemented internal pages

GTA: The Trilogy - The Definitive T2 Hot Mess Edition
The only thing more disgraceful than T2 Interactive's Lawsuits Against GTA Mod Fans is releasing GTA: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition full of buggy code that's inferior to work done and fixes by the homebrew development community comprised of Grand Theft Auto fans they're suing.
That's exactly what happened when GTA: The Trilogy was available digitally on November 11th via PlayStation Store, before being pulled after pre-orders unlocked early (with a PS4 physical release slated for this December 7th) while the GTA Trilogy PC release was also pulled due to containing developer code / notes, glitches and missing music.
This latest chapter dubbed GTA: The Trilogy - The Definitive T2 Hot Mess Edition in our ongoing video game industry watchdog series comes following additional T2 removal requests of GTA Mods... including an unmodified GTA IV EFLC The Lost And Damned save game file with 65% of the story completed.
Whether karma chimes in on Take-Two Interactive's shameful actions in the form of a class action lawsuit over Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition as a result of Rockstar Games Launcher Failures, MetaCritic...
