CONTROLS:

• Left Stick: Mouse
• Left Stick click: Zoom out
• Right Stick: Scroll
• Right Stick Click: Zoom in
• PS button: Minimize browser.
• D-Pad Up: Scroll Up (Experimental v1.3)
• D-Pad Down: Scroll Down (Experimental v1.3)
• D-Pad Left: Scroll Left (v1.3)
• D-Pad Right: Scroll Right (v1.3)

HOSTING:

• Follow the hosting section here.
• The USB folder contains config files for the payloads, and applications for use on PC.
• Flash the ESP version with NodeMCU PyFlasher: https://github.com/marcelstoer/nodemcu-pyflasher/releases

KNOWN QUIRKS:

• Self hosting with sandisk connect must be entered entirely relative, and must include the index.html at the end of the address: http://172.25.63.1/myconnect/xproject/index.html
• Stick throttle can be a little touchy if you accidentally push up/down+direction (possibly more so on DUALSHOCK 4 V2)
• Some payloads occasionally have to spit out an OOM error before they run, its how Specter built the loader (bin loader or mira for example)
• VTXHEN+BO3/GTAV Mod Menus sometimes might spit out 1 OOM error before loading, if they do: run HEN payload after the GTA payload has loaded (OOM error prevents HEN chainloading).
• Once any payload is loaded, you must hit the PS button to close the browser, then you can reopen X-Project main page to load the next payload.
• If you get excessive OOM errors, restart your console, then once at XMB restart it again, to clear the memory.
• If you get any kernel panic crash, reboot your console, then once at XMB: restart the console again, to avoid another crash when loading the next payload.
• For some reason you cannot cache the MP4 video used for sound.
• No point caching the included games, run the MakeCache.bat and manually delete any game payload lines.
• The MovieListMaker.BAT in the media folder might not work as-is on some operating systems, you can edit it and change the line: sort compile.txt /o compile2.txt to sort compile.txt > compile2.txt if you have issues.

FAQ:

How do I put this on my ESP: Flash it to your ESP8266 device using NodeMCU PyFlasher: https://github.com/marcelstoer/nodemcu-pyflasher/releases

• ON PS4: Go to Settings > Network > Custom > WIFI-SSID = X-Project Host > Pass: 12345678 > IP: Auto > DHCP: Do Not Specify > DNS: Auto > MTU: Auto > Proxy: Do Not Use > Press O (no need to test connection).
  
  
• TO USE: Open USER GUIDE, or WEB BROWSER and navigate to http://7.7.7.7/index.html.
  
  
• CACHING: Cache it in USERGUIDE or WEB BROWSER or BOTH if you want to use in both: takes under 30 seconds!

FTP SERVER:

This release has it's own built in FTP server so that you can modify files on the ESP8266 device. The ESP8266 FTP settings are:

FTP:7.7.7.7
PORT:21
USER:ESPFTP
PASSWORD:12345678

Connection to the ESP8266 FTP server needs to be passive, maximum 1 connection and and encryption disabled. You can also go to http://7.7.7.7/settings.html to edit more settings.

There are too many payloads: Remove the ones you don't want from index.js, and from the payloads folder (rebuild the .cache too).

I cant load a second payload: Press PS button, and re-enter the web browser between each payload, unless its an AIO where it will load 2 in a row for you. Then press the PS button when loaded. This is a known problem with the web browsers limitations.

I get KP (Kernel Panic): Re-start up the console from crash, when its back to the main UI reboot it, then start from cold boot.

I get OOM errors: If you get more than 3 there is an issue, hold O to close every open tab, PS button back out the browser, reboot, then start from cold boot.

The system lags: this only happens after chain-loaded payloads (HEN+GTA) have been successfully run. You can optionally run HEN and then the GTA menu of choice separately to avoid the lag.

Caching takes so long: It's because you're caching every payload of the X-Project: it will take a few mins! You can always remove payloads from the index.js, and edit the cache down to just what you need.

It's not perfect: Please contribute! Rewrite any parts that can be optimized or adapted and DM or @ mention me to update the main project! I wont be offended, in fact: I want it to be community driven!

I don't like the music: .. doesn't matter now since I removed the intro page

If you think somethings missing: please @ mention me and let me know, I will add it in the next update or hot fix!

PS4 X-Project on ESP8266 via bandzior85

 

[mschumacher69]

Thanks let me know when they get updated to test them out.

 

[SirSilvan83]

https://www.ps4exploit.cf/xproject

This seems to be up to date?!

 

[DEFAULTDNB]

@SirSilvan83 nope.

The latest X-Project is an entirely different colour and has on screen displays in each corner.

 

[SirSilvan83]

I now tested it on my ESP and it works fine. But why don't I only see all announced payloads? E.g. for GTA V Mod Menu I only see AP II Intense, but nothing more

And AP II even doesn't work I'm pressing R1 + Quad, but nothing happens

 

[croplaystation]

on xproject v1.5 for esp8266 there are only app II intense mods for v1.0 and for 1.27 because others are too long and big mods, except wildemodz i think wilde would fit to 4 mb esp8266

 

[DEFAULTDNB]

@SirSilvan83 read the release notes, under ESP specific....

 

[SirSilvan83]

Ok make sense, original X-Project is much bigger than 4MB
Don't know why, but after a reboot also AP II works fine, so now I'm happy with ESP X-Project... YEEEHAA

 

[DEFAULTDNB]

@SirSilvan83 great to hear, glad you're happy

http://mundo-mania.net/CYB3R/xproject/

@mschumacher69 this site is now updated and working

 

[Netfreak]

i flashed my wemos d1 mini, but have a few issues.
wifi is working and the http server is providing the correct webpage, but I am unable to open the settings.html and I am unable to connect via FTP (its connecting but not showing anything -> cyberduck and native osx ftp in the finder)

i just want to change the wifi password and ssid

beside that: really awesome!

 

[DEFAULTDNB]

@Netfreak I use FileZilla, host 7.7.7.7 port 21 user ESPFTP pass 12345678. Make sure in advanced settings are plain ftp insecure, and passive limit to 1 connection at a time.
