where that boost mode?

 

[Irishonion]

Unless you're rocking an SSD on a Pro, USB 3.0 will be just as good if not just a tad faster.

Wow, that's awesome! Thanks.

 

[3rdamention]

Does the PS4pro supply power to external drives?

Yes, if the drive is USB Powered. I use a couple of 1 and 2tb drives on my PS4, and now my PS4Pro, and they work great. Neither had a power supply!

 

[The Lamonster]

Recommend 3D blu ray movies, guys!

 

[Jailer of Hope]

Wow, that's awesome! Thanks.

Keep in mind that we're still waiting for actual results but I think that is what we can reasonably expect.

 

[3rdamention]

Gave this a very quick test.

Cinema mode.
Not sure what you mean wrt using the camera for tracking.
3D effect seems fine and convincing, although no settings/sliders I could find.

Other notes:

Image and sound ONLY output to the PSVR and its audio out. The TV screen stays black and mute.

Thanks for this.


As for the drift, right now, cinema mode doesn't use the camera at all. So the lights on the helmet are turned off, and the camera doesn't track it. However, many people experience the screen starting to slant/turn to the side while they are watching in cinema mode. There was a thinking that using the camera could help stabilize that. Seems that isn't something Sony did.



Would you say the 3D effect is basically like watching at the movies then?

 

[madmackem]

Was this added in a previous update, when I've redownloaded a game when I press options in it I now have upload/download saved data at the top so I don't have to dig into the settings to redownload my save pretty cool. Not sure if it's new or that I never noticed it before

 

[Audioboxer]

Anyone in Europe who's signed up for a code but hasn't gotten it yet?

I'm starting to get a bit worried

Me! UK codes seemed to start hitting around 3pm today as well

Interesting post here though ~ http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?p=229650112#post229650112

Is there a way to manage content between external vs. internal?

I have a 500GB SSD that's not being used right now. If i could put it in my pro and pull over whatever game I have active at the time that would be amazing.

 

[univbee]

It sort-of looks that way although I only had literally a few seconds to test, will try to watch a proper movie this afternoon/evening.

I'm pretty sure all the tracking lights were on.

There was also a 2.40 PSVR update, so maybe one of the thing it fixes is that tracking thing?

 

[Hoo-doo]

So, who's going to start the PS4 community whose sole goal it is to share awesome pictures to use as backgrounds?

Because I need this. I want my flat, clean, minimal backgrounds god damnit.

Yes, you can select which drive you want things installed too

 

[The Lamonster]

Cinema mode quality is better in VR

more on this, please?

 

[Lucian]

Super stoked about the external HDD support! Can't wait.

 

[Carnby]

External HDD. Does this mean P.T. can be saved?

What a great idea you should do it.

Amazing. totally going to do that. Active games on the SSD, rest of library on external drive.

 

[Pejo]

I'm actually the most pumped about 3D Bluray in VR. I've been keeping an old Playstation 27" TV to watch my 3D stuff, this is awesome news.

External drive is great too, I have a 4TB drive sitting around doing nothing.

 

[FyreWulff]

about damn time with external drives

 

[univbee]

FUCK yeah! External drives work between PS4 consoles. Game changer.

It's new.

 

[Guymelef]

I guess you have to login with your user to play on the other console, right?

How's that? I just checked and my PS4 says PSVR software is still at v2.00 and reports no update is available. Where did you get v2.40?

 

[madmackem]

It's new.

Cool, it's a nice way to upload download your game save quickly from the dash, you don't have to dig into the settings now and scroll a list to find your save you won't this finds them quickly.

 

[Disktrasa]

Will this work; https://www.webhallen.com/se-sv/dat...pansion_portable_drive_4tb&atcl=search:result

Try actually booting a 3D Blu-ray. I'm assuming you're on the Beta?

Yeah, same restrictions apply.

 

[Audioboxer]

Up to 8TB so yeah.

 

[davidwhangchoi]

wow! that's crazy

 

[Skyo]

boost mode

external HD

custom wallpapers!!

...MEGA

TON

 

[joeblow]

Ah, I didn't realize it was a separate beta update from the main one. The OP should edit to say there are two patches.

 

[Alchemist]

Exactly. I had to do this recently and it's a tedious process with all the sub menus it had too.

 

[etta]

Wow, nice update.

 

[ViciousDS]

custom wallpaper.........quick menu refresh.......external HDD........................HOLY SHIT


All thats left is quick messaging on the quick menu and the OS is literally fucking perfect for gaming.

 

[DieH@rd]

External HDD. Does this mean P.T. can be saved?

PT can be saved with basic backup tool. I moved my copy from launch PS4 to Pro.

 

[labaronx]

External hard drive questions?

Will rest mode work with it?

Does this open up the possibility of sony putting its 4k movie store on ps4 pro?

 

[Jailer of Hope]

Not as ideal as automatic cloud uploading/downloading but it's a step forward.

 

[Hoo-doo]

I've already done my part dude:

You do some great work, m0dus. But I mean like flat flat.

I don't want shit moving, I don't want 3D objects with shitty shimmering edges or colour banding. Visibility always suffers. Like in your second video, the text isn't even readable.

Give me just a flat colour, subtle texture or a static smooth blur gradient or something. Those are my jam, and i'd LOVE to have these on my PS4.

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

Yes, you can select which drive you want things installed too

Does it show available space on both at the same time or one or the other?

 

[Nestunt]

Hypothetical: You install all your games on the External HDD. Can you use that same drive on 2 PS4s that have your account?

 

[univbee]

Yes, I just did this. It works.

That would be amazing!

 

[westcoast408]

yesssss!!!

 

[Nestunt]

Yes, I just did this. It works.

That's really cool

 

[TetraGenesis]

Plus Boost Mode? Jesus, this update friggin RULES.

 

[SilentFlyer]

where that boost mode?

You can find it in Setting> System.

 

[5taquitos]

Yes, I just did this. It works.

Holy shit

 

[Nestunt]

Yes, I just did this. It works.

Do you think it will be easy to patch the games that are installed in the Ext Hdd?

 

[Acquiescence]

Holy shit. The PS4 is literally perfect now. What else do we even need?

Plenty. PS1 Classic support is still a glaring omission.

 

[univbee]

Do you think it will be easy to patch the games that are installed in the Ext Hdd?

The same as usual. When you have the external plugged in the games show up on the XMB as normal, and can be updated or whatever. When done, it's patched, and doesn't have to be patched again if you plug it in on another PS4.

 

[farisr]

So if I'm able to see the EU Beta forums, does that mean I got in?

If that's the case, anyone else in that got in via an EU account not received their codes yet?
