The developer Berion proposes to us to discover its fork of XMB Manager Plus of Team XMBM + proposed some years ago, which had taken some time by Aldostools.

XMB Manager Plus is a menu with shortcuts to different things in the menu of game categories in XMB, it is a simple Cross Media Bar hack but on which it has corrected, added or updated some descriptions, positions have Been changed from certain menus.

All icons (except backup data icons) are now read from dev_hdd0, instead of RCO, from dev_flash and all are "rebuffed" to match the PlayStation 3 Rebugging theme, but any other Skin can be easily added.

it has also incorporated custom firmware tools, for example the WebMAN / WebMAN Mod settings menu for full versions, Plugin Switcher Manager (with pre-configurations) and XMB Package Downloader but in "min version" (no themes, wallpapers and Game Icons Application Icon).

It deleted all old links from the website and added the Childproof Mode option that disables all potentially harmful options.

What is Childproof Mode?

This option permanently disabling:
- File Manager - because user can deleting files and folders from any mounted device/fs
- Plugin Manager Switcher - because user can deleting boot_plugins.txt
- Custom Firmware Tools - because user can kill console using improperly

> Requirements?

1. Obviously, a PS3 with installed any modern CFW (like i.e Rebug 4.81.1).
2. User must have installed and active WebMAN or WebMAN Mod for some of the options (all for WebMAN menu, Plugin Switcher Manager, XMB Package Downloader and few in other places).
3. Also Custom Firmware Tools must be active (turn it on in Rebug Toolbox on Rebug CFW or add custom xai_plugin to boot_plugins.txt). Without it, almost all options in Custom Firmware Tools will not be working, resulting in console forced restart + mandatory file system checking/repairing.

No PKG file? How can I install this?

I don't like PKG format and in this case is even completely useless. It's sufficient to use file manager or FTP client.

1. Copy "xmb" folder info "dev_hdd0/".
2. Be sure to have installed and active xai_plugin and webmanmod.
3. Got to "dev_blind/vsh/resource/explore/xmb/" and make backup of files:
category_game.xml
category_game_tool2.xml
category_network.xml
category_network_tool2.xml

4. Copy all "xmb/flash/*.xml" to "dev_blind/vsh/resource/explore/xmb/".

Or if You don't like my Game and Network category, edit them herself adding below node in proper place:
<Query class="type:x-xmb/folder-pixmap" key="xmb_manager_plus" src="xmb://localhost/dev_hdd0/xmb/xmb_manager_plus.xml#xmb_manager_plus"/>

5. Restart PS3.

How can I uninstall this?

Delete or change name of "dev_hdd0/xmb/" and restore Your backuped XML.
Or just reinstall Your CFW.



In short, an important work that can be found here http://www.psx-place.com/resources/xmb-manager-plus-2017.550/download?version=804;)
