It means they are preparing to launch the remake on PC /s
Wish I could actually use the patch on my PS5. Or can I? Can you softmod the PS5 or would I need to buy something to solder to the mainboard?
I don’t think my PC could actually achieve 60fps if I emulated it.
I think at this point that the dev has said only his website was taken down, solely because he used “Bloodborne” on it. The actual patch is fine, and can be freely shared, as I understand it.
And it’s still accessible through the Wayback Machine sooooSomeone fucking mirror it
Like @prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone said, there’s a flatpak PS4 emulator that makes it trivial to apply the patch, as demonstrated here.
Cough… Ahem…
I dug this out of my history, and cannot recall if this included the mod or not… However, the PS4 emulator software (I got mine directly from the Discovery app repository on linux (flatpak maybe?)) seems pretty much built for this purpose, and made the patch installation process incredibly easy. It was all built into the emulator.
If the emulator software itself (or the patches it retrieves) were removed, I don’t quite know exactly how to re-host that…
Thanks much
Someone really hates bloodborne at sony.
They love it so much they don’t want anyone else to have it or for it to ever change even slightly.
That’s another perspective.
“Look it’s perfect! No bloodborne 2, no remaster, no mods, and no anime!”
Meanwhile fans just want to share Fandom with new people’s cause it felt like a very new expirence even amongst souls games.
What is the DMCA argument here? Does anyone know what was alleged by Sony?
It would need to be either using copyrighted code or circumventing copy protection. Neither seems likely for a frame rate mod.
Could be distributing a modified copy of a copyrighted binary.
Possible I suppose, but if that worked, not sure why they couldn’t just provide a diff patch that worked on the user’s existing binary…
y’all really still letting corpos tell you what you can and can’t share?
If a publisher doesn’t want modders improving the value of their product, I don’t feel too inclined to argue with them. There are no shortage of other games from more-amenable-to-modding publishers that could benefit from mods.
Me personally no, but content providers that can be taken offline due to ignoring DMCA kinda have to.
share any shit you make on p2p networks. not even the feds have figured out how to take down a torrent consistently.
That doesn’t fix the problem here though, which is that a specific distribution source took it down.
If you want to fight Sony, go for it. If you ask for funding for a lawsuit, I’ll probably contribute. If you just redistribute over P2P, that’s cool too.
Honestly, I an surprised that Nexus Mods hasn’t started a tracker yet.
They make money selling faster downloads, so that’s not likely to happen.
Sony must be nearing some kind of announcement in time for the 10-year anniversary of Bloodborne’e release
So they kind of stole the idea from him? It’s a serious copyright issue
