Getting Started

Hi, I'm new to this forum, I want to try the emulator but I don't know how to use it, so I read that I need to use the PS3 game that through TFTP right? A friend of mine generously lends its console so that I can try, and also has a couple of games, but i don't know how to set it up to use the games.
The ps3 has to read the blu ray and send it to the pc or how it works?
I didn't find any post that why i ask for help.
Anyway thanks

Though I'm not exactly sure, you probably need a CFW (jailbroken) PS3, to setup a FTP server on it, and legitimately obtain the games.
The easiest way to obtain a CFW PS3, is to have a one, which's firmware version is 3.55 or below. Newer versions of the firmware have restrictions, which mean you'd have to open up the PS3, order some equipment and solder a flash programmer to it, and then perform a downgrade to 3.55, so you could install CFW.

Well that's the thing, the ps3 that i have access has a custom firmware(at least thats what my friend told me), but i was hoping that i can kind of "copy" the legit game from the console to the pc and then read the game in the emu, so i don't need to have the ps3 on all the time i want to try some game. If i remember correctly having an ISO or a blu ray reader(plus the blue ray disc) on the pc will not work because the discs are made to be read in the console only, so that opcion it's not available.

I don't know much about setting up a FTP server and getting the firmware files, but I'm sure someone else will know. (BlackDaemon maybe)
Though it might be useful to ask your friend what version of CFW is on the PS3, so we could help you better.
