A Question About ManaGunZ for PS3 Dumping

In the PlayStation 3 dumping page (
https://wiki.redump.info/index.php?title= … :_ManaGunZ), it is specified that 4.89 or below is required for installing ManaGunZ (
https://github.com/Zarh/ManaGunZ/releases). However, I found a fork of ManaGunZ (
https://github.com/RobbedColek/ManaGunZ/tags) that allegedly works until 4.91. Even though the latest PlayStation 3 firmware as of 03/05/25 is 4.92 (
https://www.playstation.com/en-us/suppo … m-software), this is still an improvement from the original project. Can I use this fork to dump my PlayStation 3 discs? If I can, can you update the wiki page to change it so everyone can use it?

Unfortunately, the wiki hasn't been updated, BUT, to dump correctly, I recommend using this fork which is available for version 4.92:
https://github.com/SashaPrawn/ManaGunZ/releases/latest
As long as you provide the logs with the PIC and the disk key, your dump will be accepted.

Yes, the RobbedColek fork is made by a redump member, you can very much use it.
I haven't tried the SashaPrawn fork myself, but if Exorcism says it works, that one is fine too.
I've also updated the wiki

Oh, I didn't know this fork. It seems like it works on 4.92, too (like you said). Thanks for letting me know about this fork.

Thanks, though the wiki could be better:
Install Evilnat CFW instructions here (use 3.56-4.92 CFW if possible). CFW is a strict requirement, HEN hacks don't provide enough access to dump metadata.
[Download (change it to Sasha's fork)] and install ManaGunZ nightly (installation process is a straightforward launch of a .pkg file off a USB thumbstick)
