Developer Al Azif has released PS4 Payload Guest 0.97, a tool that runs PS4 Payloads (on a jailbroken PS4) locally from the PS4’s hard drive, instead of having to load it from a website. PS4 Payload Guest can vastly improve the stability of your exploit attempts, by not having to rely on the Jailbreak process multiple times. This update includes significant improvements by developer LightningMods.

What is PS4 Payload Guest

from the Readme:

Payload Guest reads payloads from /data/payloads/ (From the PS4’s internal hard drive) and/or /mnt/usb*/payloads/ (From a USB devices /payloads/ directory). If you have a meta.json file in one of these directories it will parse that file rather than trying to scan that particular directory’s files. If there is no meta.json file the application will scan the folder and add any .bin files found to the menu, it will look for a .png file with the same name to display. Pressing square will refresh the list (For if you inserted/removed a USB device).

Why?

Because the success rate for re-exploiting will be lower than just running the code “natively.” This should completely replace exploit hosts for all but one payload, no need for a maze of buttons or questionable “stability tweaks.” This also puts you in more control of what you run on your system. You’ll still depend on a different solution for HEN/Mira/GoldHEN but… make good choices.

PS4 Payload Guest 0.97. What’s new

This new release includes changes from LightningMods. From the changelog:

• Built with Open Orbis SDK v0.52
• Updated nlohmann/json to 3.10.5
• Updated libLog
• Removed libjbc
  • No Jailbreak necessary USB access (Method via @LightningMods)
  • This does NOT mean you don’t need a USB drive to run the 9.00 exploit… to run this package you need to have already done that.
  • From an end user standpoint this doesn’t change anything, from a developer standpoint and a stability standpoint it is way better.
• Standalone payload loading (Method via @LightningMods)
  • No GoldHEN necessary
• Signal Handler for payloads that would normally cause a crash (Method via @LightningMods)
