# Payload Guest



## Synopsis



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.



## Example `meta.json`



Please note the open and closing square brackets (`[ ]`).



```json

[

  {

    "name": "Enable Browser",

    "filename": "enable-browser.bin",

    "icon": "enable-browser.png"

  },

  {

    "name": "Disable ASLR",

    "filename": "different-name.bin",

    "icon": "no-match.png"

  }

]

```

## TODO



This is a to do list of know issues/planned features. If all of these manage to get done it's essentially 100% complete and 100% overengineeered for what it was supposed to be.



- [ ] Setup proper logging levels/statements (Everything is currently just `LL_Debug`)

- [ ] Use `error_notifi.png` for error notifications (?)

- [ ] 1.00 Release



- [ ] Use [Mira Loader](https://github.com/OpenOrbis/mira-project) to load payloads

- [ ] Swap to SDL2 for rendering (May fix issues below)

- [ ] Directly use system typefaces, font library, PNG library, etc (May fix issues below)

- [ ] Get PNG transparency working correctly

- [ ] Arabic is rendered backwards

  - [ ] Arabic likely needs to use harfbuzz to properly render ligatures

- [ ] Payload title centering is a off when value is used from the fallback typeface (Arabic/Thai)

- [ ] Fix newline height is based on font "width" right now, so it can be different than what's expected (Arabic/Thai)



- [ ] New options menu (Options button, save to application save file)

  - [ ] Set log level to display in logging

  - [ ] Set language to something other than the system language

  - [ ] Hide payload location on

  - [ ] Set "safety delay" timer value. Determines how many seconds must pass before another payload can be loaded after loading another.

  - [ ] Enable a payload listener on a custom port

  - [ ] Send payload to an IP/port rather than executing directly

  - [ ] Sorting order (Default, alphabetical, most used, etc)

  - [ ] Move `CreditView` into options (Include credits for translators)



- [ ] Make it look better visually (Should be ongoing process)

  - [ ] Stay simple

  - [ ] Work towards looking more and more native without adding unnecessary active elements

  - [ ] Menu Sounds

  - [ ] Add theme support (Distribute as AC PKGs)
