PS3-Rich-Presence-for-Discord

Discord Rich Presence script for PS3 consoles on HFW&HEN or CFW.

Display what game you are playing on PS3 via your PC!

Display Example

XMB
PS3
Retro

Download

Note

The executable file will very likely be flagged as a virus on your computer due to pyinstaller being used to compile it. As far as I know, there is nothing I can do to fix this.

Contact me via Discord: "zorua98741"/"zorua98741#23".

Limitations

  • A PC must be used to display presence, there is no way to install and use this script solely on the PS3
  • The script relies on webmanMOD, and a major change to it will break this script, please message me about updated versions of webman so that i can test the script with them
  • PSX and PS2 game name depends on the name of the file
  • PSX and PS2 game detection will not work on PSN .pkg versions because webman cannot show those games as mounted/playing.
  • PS2 ISO game detection can be inconsistent, varying on degree of consistency by the value of "Refresh time."
  • Using Windows 7 is only possible with up to PS3RPD version 1.7.2
    • If you want to use a .exe, here is a version that may or may not fully function (very little bug testing has been done)

Usage

Requirements

  • PS3 with either HFW&HEN, or CFW installed
  • PS3 with webmanMOD installed
  • PS3 and PC on the same network/internet connection
  • Discord installed and open on the PC running the script
  • Administrator permissions on the PC
  • A Python 3.9 interpreter installed on the PC if you do not wish to use the executable file

Installing as a Windows service (optional)

Download NSSM and run nssm install <service name ie. ps3rpd> to install PS3RPD as a Windows service. WARNING: PS3RPD.exe must be in a location that won't change ie. C:\ps3rpd\PS3RPD.exe

Additional Information

External config file

PS3RPD makes use of an external config file to persistently store a few variables, on creation, the default values will be:

  • Your PS3's IP address (where the script will find your PS3 on the network)
  • My Discord developer application's ID (where the script will send presence data to)
  • A refresh time of 35 seconds (how often to get new data (minimum value of 15 seconds)
  • To show the PS3's temperature
  • To use a shared cover for PS2&PSX games
  • To display the time elapsed

Using your own images

If you'd like to control what images are used for each game, you must create a Discord Developer Application over at the Discord Developer Portal.

Once created, copy the application ID from the Developer Portal and paste it into the external config.json, replacing the value of client_id.

You are now able to upload your own assets in the Developer Portal under Rich Presence > Art Assets. Note that the name of the asset uploaded must be the lowercase title ID provided in the script's output. (e.g. abcd12345)
