Q & A
What is the main purpose of the video?
-The main purpose of the video is to guide viewers through the process of converting a PS3 with PS3 HEN to a full jailbreak by installing custom firmware, specifically for users with compatible PS3 systems.
Is the method shown in the video applicable to all PS3 models?
-No, the method is not applicable to all PS3 models. It is not suitable for the PS3 Super Slim and only works with certain models of the PS3 Slim and the original 'Fat' PS3 systems that are compatible with custom firmware.
What is PS3 HEN and what does it enable users to do?
-PS3 HEN (Homebrew Enabler) is a modification that allows users to run homebrew applications on their PS3. It provides some level of customization but does not offer the full control that custom firmware does.
What are the benefits of custom firmware over PS3 HEN?
-Custom firmware provides full control over the system, allows for the conversion to a developer or debug system, runs on cold boot (no need to enable HEN each time the system is turned on), and is generally considered more stable for running games and applications.
What is the PS3 Tool Set and how is it used in the video?
-The PS3 Tool Set, developed by b garville and the PS3 Exploit Team, is a set of tools used to facilitate the jailbreak process. In the video, it is used to check system compatibility and to perform the actual jailbreak by patching the system's flash memory.
What is the minimum system software version required to use the PS3 Tool Set as mentioned in the video?
-The minimum system software version required, as mentioned in the video, is 4.91. The PS3 Tool Set supports up to firmware version 4.91.
Why is Rufus mentioned in the video and what is its purpose?
-Rufus is a utility used for creating bootable USB drives. In the context of the video, it is used to format the USB flash drive to MBR partition scheme and FAT32 file system, which is necessary for the jailbreak process.
What is the significance of the 'pi PS3 Checker' tool used in the video?
-The 'pi PS3 Checker' is a standalone package used to verify the integrity of the flash memory dump from the PS3. It checks for any dangers or warnings that could potentially cause issues during the jailbreak process.
What is the recommended course of action if the 'pi PS3 Checker' shows warnings or dangers?
-If the 'pi PS3 Checker' shows warnings or dangers, it is recommended to reinstall the hybrid firmware (HFW) required for PS3 HEN, create a new flash memory dump, and check it again until zero dangers and warnings are reported.
What is the final step in the video after patching the system's flash memory?
-The final step after patching the system's flash memory is to turn off the PS3, turn it back on, and then install the custom firmware by updating the system via the storage media, which in this case is the USB drive containing the custom firmware file.
What happens to the user's data and settings when transitioning from PS3 HEN to custom firmware?
-According to the video, users should not lose their data from PS3 HEN when transitioning to custom firmware. The custom firmware installation process is designed to preserve existing data, including backed-up games and homebrew applications.

[Laughter]
hey what is going on everyone it's me Mr
Mario and in this video here I'm going
to be showing you all if you have a
capable PS3 that has already been
modified with PS3 hen how you can
essentially convert it and get a full
jailbreak on that system by installing
custom firmware and really what we're
doing here is just going through the
full jailbreak process from start to
finish although there's going to be some
familiarity since if you're watching
this and you want to follow along you
probably have the familiarity of using a
modified PS3 that already has PS3 hen
installed on it such as this one right
here now I do want to get this out of
the way immediately here if anybody is
watching this excited and thinking oh
great I can install custom firmware on
my PS3 super slim absolutely not
unfortunately this does not change
anything this is not any type of
breakthrough method this is just going
to be the standard webkit exploit style
jailbreak that we have been using for
several years so that's all to say here
if you have a compatible system this
video will work for you meaning that if
you have a fat system like this
congratulations you can continue on if
you have a Slim system you might be able
to continue on there's several models of
the PS3 Slim that work with custom
firmware such as the one that I'm using
here there's also going to be some that
might be able to take custom firmware
which we will be able to check in a few
minutes and finally the later revisions
will not be able to take custom firmware
at all very similar to the PS3 super
slim which cannot take custom firmware
at all so that's all to say you have to
make sure you have a compatible system
in order to follow along with this now
why exactly am I making this video I'm
making this here because there's people
who have PS3s that are perfectly capable
of running custom firmware but they only
have PS3 hin on them maybe some people
preferred PS3 hen for some time maybe
they want to try it out maybe that was
the only option while they were waiting
for a full jailbreak or a custom
firmware however that is to say if you
have an earlier run of these slim or if
you have a fat system you can install
custom firmware on that just fine and
I'll be showing you how to do that here
it is also a nice benefit and upgrade
because custom firware allows you to
have essentially full control of the
system and even do things like convert
it over to a developer or debug or Dex
system it also runs on cold boot meaning
that you do not have to enable hin such
as this here every single time you turn
on the system and you want to run
Homebrew you just turn on the system you
have custom firmware right there and
you're ready to go right off the bat
generally people including myself also
believe that it is more stable when it
comes to Running Games applications and
much more so that's all to say if you
have a custom firmware compatible system
I definitely recommend running custom
firmware instead of PS3 H but PS3 H is
not a bad option especially if all you
have is a slim that is in compatible or
a super slim now that's all to say here
the method we're going to be using will
be the PS3 tool set from b garville as
well as the PS3 exploit team otherwise
known as the BG tool set it's going to
make this nice and easy for us here and
they've done a fantastic job not only
developing this but keeping it up to dat
so it's going to be thankfully pretty
simple and it will work well enough for
what we're trying to do here so with all
of that out of the way if you have a
compatible system or you're wanting to
check compatibility and you're ready to
jump into the world of custom firmware
well there's going to be a few things
that we're going to need as
prerequisites first of all you will need
your PlayStation 3 this should be a PS3
that is up and running and working and
should already have PS3 hin installed on
here you do not have to have PS3 hen
installed because this can even work for
a stock system however this video here
is specifically aimed for PS3 hen users
who are wanting to move over to a full
custom firmware secondly you're also
going to need a USB flash drive because
we're going to need to transfer some
files to and from a computer so you are
also going to need a computer connected
to the internet and you will also have
to make sure your PS3 right here will be
connected to the internet now there will
be one thing to check and see that your
PS3 is currently compatible and will
work with the PS3 tool set and that's
going to be checking the firmware
version that you are on you see right
here of course we have hfw with PS3 H
and what you can do is go to the
settings tab go over to system settings
go down down to system information and
inside of system information you need to
look at the system software version
number that you are on this one I'm
currently performing this on is version
4.91 now if you come over to the PS3
exploit teams website you can check and
see the recommended firmware here and
see that CFW compatible is 4.91 OFW and
the PS3 tool set does support up to 4.91
so as long as you are within this range
you're not higher you can continue on
with this video If you have a higher
firmware than what is listed here you're
going to have to wait for the PS3 tool
set to be updated to support that
firmware and for anybody worried because
this says OFW don't worry the PS3 tool
set thankfully does support hfw as well
so we don't have to change the firmware
before we start anything however back
over at the PS3 with those prerequisites
now covered and checked out we are going
to have to check our minimum firmware
version and make sure that our PS3 is
compatible with custom firmware this is
going to be a necessary step so to do
this here there'll be a few steps you
need to take first of all you are going
to need to make sure your PS3 has been
connected to the internet next up you'll
want to scroll back over to the settings
option here go into system settings and
one of the top settings that you should
change here if you haven't already is
automatic update make sure this is
turned off because we're going to go
through all this effort to install
custom firmware and you do not want an
automatic update to take that away from
you on accident the second second thing
we should change here is display what's
new turn that off next we need to go
down to the date and time settings you
need to set set automatically to on come
up to the date and time go down to set
via internet now one thing to note here
if you try to set it via the Internet
and you get some kind of air such as
this make sure you are connected online
but even if you are connected online and
you're getting that air what you might
just have to do is set this manually and
use something such as your phone or your
computer something that has the date and
time already set accurately on it and
try to set this to be as accurate as
possible for the tool set to work
successfully it might also be worth
mentioning here that if you have hin
already enabled it might be worth just
going in and rebooting your system real
quick just to disable hin so that way we
can continue on without hin being
enabled once your system has rebooted or
you just make sure you have not enabled
hin the last thing we're going to need
to do here is make a new user profile
and use that so to do that you'll need
to come over to your users create a new
user and this one we can call it
whatever we want to but typically I call
this one JB for jailbreak you can hit
okay and now sign into your JB profile
now once you're signed successfully into
the JB profile don't worry once we're
done at the end we can delete this here
but we're only using this for
jailbreaking so now we can go over to
the internet browser and open it up
because we're now going to clean up our
internet browser before we use this so
to do this hit the triangle button go up
to tools go to confirm browser close and
set this to off go back to tools go to
homepage set it to use blank page then
go down and hit okay go to tools again
this time we're going to delete our
cookies we're going to delete the search
history we're going to delete the cache
and the last thing we'll need to delete
is authentication information and once
that's all done tap the circle button to
close out of the browser now that we've
confirmed the browser is nice and CLE C
to work out of tap the x button on the
browser to reopen it and now we're going
to go to the PS3 tool set to do this
here tap the start button on your
controller delete everything here and go
to this specific website it will be
right here https colon sl/ PS3 tools
set.com and if you need to double check
this you can check the link Down Below
in the description of this video and go
to the tool set once you've dialed it in
here you can hit start or enter and wait
for the page to load
now do keep in mind this website is
going to take quite a bit of time to
load up so just sit here wait and be
patient once it loads in it's going to
ask you if you want to run a plugin you
always want to say yes to running that
plugin and once the plugin is loaded
just wait a little bit longer for it to
finish
up and here we go once everything has
initialized here you should get this
message with the maintenance costs as
well as several different methods in
which you can donate to be garville for
the the PS3 tool set if you do get some
use out of this I always recommend
giving a donation to the team but once
you're okay with this hit okay and now
you can navigate up to System Manager
tap the x button right here and wait for
the system manager to load
in it should give you this information
here after a little bit and this is what
we are looking for you want to look at
CFW compatible PS3 and if you get a
green check mark congratulations you can
continue on with the rest of this video
unfortunately if if you do not get a
green check mark for your system you
cannot continue on with this video and
you're just going to have to stay on PS3
hin however do be a little bit thankful
because for a while we could not do
anything with those newer systems so it
is incredibly awesome that we do have
PS3 hin available but since my system is
running PS3 hin but it is a custom
firmware compatible system we're going
to be continuing on for a full jailbreak
here so once you've been able to confirm
this you'll just want to tap the circle
button to close out of the browser and
once it's closed let's go ahead and move
over to our PC for the next steps for
this you're going to need a PC and
you're also going to need a USB flash
drive to download and transfer over some
files that we're going to need the first
thing we'll need here is Rufus which you
can come over here scroll down a little
bit and download whichever version works
for you if you want to install it the
x64 version for 64-bit or the x86
version for 32-bit operating systems
will work for you or if you just want to
grab grab the portable one without
having to install it on a 64-bit machine
you can do that we will be performing a
flash memory dump and we are going to be
verifying it so in order to do this here
we are going to need the pi PS3 Checker
you can come to the GitHub link for the
pi PS3 tools Down Below in the
description click on Pi PS3 Checker
Standalone package and once you click on
this click on this button here to
download it and save it somewhere you
can easily find it since we're going to
be installing custom firmware we're
going to need an actual firmware for
this here the one that is usually newest
latest and greatest is going to be
evonet so I'm going to add this linked
Down Below in the description and there
might be a newer one by the time you're
watching this however you just need to
find a custom firmware that works for
your system here and you can scroll down
after you check out all the information
which there's a ton right here thanks to
Evon not doing a ton of work on this
however you can come over here and you
can pick whichever variant is going to
work for you now to keep it simple we
cannot touch either either of the Dex
firmwares so you'll need CeX if you want
a full retail firmware or the PEX CeX
variant if you'd like some of the
development capabilities and even the
capability to convert your system to a
development or deck system in the future
now you can get the standard version
right here or if you have a broken
Blu-ray Drive you can get the nobd
version if you have a broken Bluetooth
board the no BT option if you have both
a broken Blu-ray Drive and a broken
Bluetooth board you you can get no BD no
BT and finally at your own risk here
because overclocking the PS3 has been a
thing in the last few years if you'd
like to try overclocking however I'm not
going to use any of that I'm just going
to get the PEX version here so to
download this you just need to click
here and go through the download process
now I've downloaded this before but if
you're going to be using Mega you just
need to click the download button and
then save it somewhere you can easily
find it in order to extract the archives
that we've downloaded you can use
something such as 7zip if you're having
difficulty extracting it's easy enough
to use it's free you just need to
download whichever version works for
your operating system and install it and
finally we have to make sure that our
firmware we download is going to have a
good file check sum so for that I do
recommend using your favorite md5
Checker I'm going to have this Linked In
the description because it's online and
it seems to work pretty well with your
USB drive plugged in the first thing
we'll need to do is open up rofus double
click this you should get a prompt here
in which you can say yes if you want to
allow to check for updates you can say
yes now you need to find where your
drive is hooked up mine is this 16 GB
flash drive I'm using if you cannot find
your drive you can just go to show
Advanced Drive properties and enable
list USB hard drives however since my
drive has been found I'm not going to
worry about that for boot selection you
need to select non- bootable and these
are the two important options you have
to select MBR for partition scheme if it
is GPT this will not work but you have
to select MBR for partition scheme and
then you have to make sure your file
system is fat 32 if you see an option
which is large fat 32 that's also okay
but it needs to be fat 32 as long as
it's MBR and fat 32 the volume label
does not matter we can keep everything
else default and once you're ready to
format this you can click on start now
do keep in mind that when we format this
it is going to delete all the data that
we care about from this USB drive so as
long as you have backed up all the data
you care about and you're okay with
formatting this you can click on okay
and give it a few seconds it's now going
to format the flash drive accordingly to
work on the PS3 and once that's done
click on close now you need to find your
USB drive on your computer right click
it and eject it and now take it over to
your PS3 once you're back over at your
PS3 plug in your USB flash drive and
make sure that it is showing up in any
of the media columns such as photo music
or video if it is showing up here
congratulations you have formatted it
and set it up successfully
now we can go back over to our internet
browser and we're going to go back to
the PS3 toolet site in order to do this
here hit the start button on your
controller delete all of this and we're
going to go to the exact same website we
did before which is
https PS3 tools set.com hit start or
enter And while this is loading up just
to make this easier you can now hit the
select button on your controller and add
this to your bookmarks so you can grab
it easier later on and just like before
it is going to take some time to load in
properly so just give it a few moments
here it is going to ask you to run the
plugin you always want to say yes to
running the plugin now once you get the
maintenance costs page and your PS3
beeps at you you can hit okay to
continue on now come back over to the
system manager like we did before and
wait for this tool to load in and here
we go once we are here you can now go
down to flash memory highlight the flash
memory option tap the X button and there
should only be one option that comes up
which is save flash memory backup tap X
on here and a new page will come up here
asking where you want to save this to
you want to select your USB drive which
will say Dev USB followed by some
numbers tap the x button on your USB
drive and tap X here yet again to save
now give it a few moments depending on
how big your system flashes whether it
is a nand or a no it will be either a
couple hundred megabytes or 60 18 megab
however big it is though just wait for
it to dump and once it is dumped you can
hit close and now you can close out of
the browser yet again and once it's
closed remove your USB drive and take it
over to your PC over at the PC the next
thing we'll need is the pi PS3 Checker
package for this you can rightclick this
and use something such as seven zzip to
extract it to its own folder once it's
been extracted open up the pi PS3
Checker folder and it's going to look
like this and this is going to be the
important file that we're going to be
using here which will allow us to check
our flash dump for this you can go to
your USB drive look for the dump. bin
file right click copy this out go back
to Pi PS3 Checker and paste it into Pi
PS3 Checker now all you need to do is
grab this dump. bin file and drag and
drop it onto drag and drop your dump
here dobat once you release it on here
you're going to get a command prompt
window which will run through the script
and after a few seconds you should see
this at the end showing the number of
dangers and the number of warnings on
your system flash now if you have any
dangers you do not want to continue just
yet if you have any warnings typically
one warning depending on it is might be
okay but multile warnings again you
don't want to continue just yet one of
the options here that might give a
warning is the core OS region check
because it wants r0 and ros1 to be
matching this is why if you have
installed PS3 hin prior using one of my
videos I do recommend doing two installs
so these values will be matching if they
are mismatched for example or if you get
any other warnings or airs what I do
recommend is reinstalling your hybrid
firmware or the hfw which is required
for PS3 hin reinstall it go through the
process of opening up PS3 tool set creat
a new flash memory dump and then
transfer back over to the PC and check
that new dump again this is what you
should be looking for zero dangers and
zero warnings since this is all all good
I'm going to hit the in key on here to
exit out and now at this point you're
also going to want to back up your dump.
bin so typically what I do and what I
recommend is creating a new folder and
in this folder you can put the serial
number for your PS3 or the model number
or whatever you want to do to denote
this here I'll call this like slim PS3
backup for example and now you want to
transfer the dump. bin to that backup
folder and from here you want to take
this backup folder make sure it is
somewhere safe back it up to cloud
storage make sure it's on a safe place
on your PC whatever you do that way you
know that you have a good flash backup
and just in case anything goes wrong
with the next procedure you can always
reflash this to your systems flash
storage using a hardware flasher so now
with that checked we can close out of
here and we can repare our flash drive
the next thing we're going to need is
the evonet custom firmware or whichever
custom firmware you're going to be using
when you're watching this here all you
need to do is right click your archive
and extract it into its own folder once
you have the firmware extracted here it
should look something like this where
you can check out the read me and
accompanying links if you want to I
believe here the links for this specific
one is going to be the other firmwares
that are available in this folder the
read me for this one covers some of the
newer capabilities that's been added to
evonet at the time of recording this and
the md5 is what we're going to need you
can open this up and save it for later
but this is what we're going to need
here our file is going going to be
within PS3 update ps3updat.pup and if
your download is not set up exactly like
this you just need to look for the pup
file and you're going to have to copy it
over since the structure is built out
for this we can just right click and
copy the PS3 folder now go to our USB
drive and paste it right here give it a
few moments to copy over once it's done
copying over you want to check
everything here just to make sure it
looks like what I have set up so if
you're on Windows you need to go to view
show
file name extensions once that's enabled
your firmware needs to go in a PS3
folder all uppercase it then needs to go
into an update folder which is all
uppercase and inside of here the file
must be called ps3updat.pup
it needs to look exactly like this if it
is not exactly like this it will not be
red now the last thing to do here is
check the file itself for the Integrity
of it so this is where we need that md5
checking site pull up your preferred md5
check and you can click on drop file
here from here you don't want to
navigate to the download itself you want
to go to your USB drive the PS3 folder
the update folder ps3updat.pup double
click this and wait a few minutes for
the hash to generate once you get a hash
value here you're going to want to grab
your md5 from the download that you
grabbed and as you can see this is what
we're getting right here now we're going
to have to compare this manually but
when it comes to a md5 hash do keep in
mind that it is not case sensitive so
for example if if you're concerned
because there's an uppercase D and an
uppercase B you don't have to worry
about that you just need to make sure
that the numbers and the letters are
going to be matching in the same order
and once you can confirm that the file
hash that we got is the same one as the
expected one that came with the download
that means that you have been able to
download this successfully a few final
notes for the firmware hash itself if
you do a hash check and it is incorrect
the first thing I'd recommend doing is
delete the download here redownload it
re-extract it copy it back over to the
USB drive again and then check it if
you're still not getting a successful
file hash make sure you are actually
right-clicking and extracting the
archive itself and then inside of the
extracted archive make sure you're
getting the update file and you're
transferring that update file to the PS3
update folder you do not want to check
the archive you need to check the update
file itself however now that we know our
USB drive is good we can right click
eject our USB drive and take it over to
the PS3 for the final steps over at your
PS3 go to the internet browser and we're
going to do the exact same thing as
before once the browser loads in hit the
select button this time around and open
up the PS3 tool set and if all goes
according to plan this should hopefully
be the last time you open up the PS3
tool set while you are jailbreaking your
system now as usual whenever it asks you
to run the plug-in always say yes to
this and wait for everything else to
load in and once you get this page
verifying everything is complete you you
can hit okay and just like before we're
going to come all the way up to System
Manager tap the x button and wait for
this to download and once we are all
good here you want to come down to flash
memory patch tap the x button on this
and go to load patch via HTTP highlight
this tap the x button and wait it's now
going to download the necessary patch to
your system and then verify the
Integrity of it to make sure that this
patch is all
good and here we go once it's been
verified we can hit the close button and
at this point now we're going to be
patching our system so you'll come back
over to flash memory patch hit the x
button go down to apply loaded patch tap
the x button here and now at this point
you want to tread carefully because you
need to be aware that this will be the
point of no return we're now going to be
patching our system and if we interrupt
the system in any way like if we try to
disconnect it or try to forcefully close
the browser it can brick your system so
if you're ready to take that risk and
you can be uninterrupted for a few
minutes here as long as you understand
this you can come over hit yes and tap
the x button now what you want to do is
physically put down your controller
gently do not touch the system do not
touch your controller and let the
patching process work it is going to
look like right here for example there's
nothing happening or it's hung up or it
is soft locked just trust the process
right here you're just going to want to
to give it time do also keep in mind if
you have a fat system that is a nand
flash it's going to take a few seconds
to patch your system so you should have
been done at this point however if you
have a nor flash system it's going to
take a few minutes it doesn't matter how
long it takes just let it do its thing
sit here Wait Don't Touch the controller
don't touch the system let it
finish and as you can see at this point
now everything has completed it took
less than 2 minutes for my system to
patch but once it's done you can hit the
close button and now you can tap the
circle button to close out of the
browser and at this point you now need
to turn off your system and turn it back
on so you can hold down the PlayStation
button hit turn off system say yes and
then turn your system back on now once
your system boots up nothing is going to
be different on here but it is time to
install custom firmware to finally break
your system so make sure your USB drive
has been connected like you can see
right here navigate over to the settings
column go up to system update go down to
update via storage media give it a few
moments and you should find the update
file right here tap X give it a few
moments to load in and after you accept
the terms to the update itself it's
going to begin copying the update file
from your usb drive to the internal
system after that it's then going to
reboot into system update mode just let
it do its thing now when your system
reboots into the system update page you
can press the PlayStation button on your
controller and that should start the
update process and once you're at this
screen again don't touch your controller
don't touch your system and let it
update this will take a few minutes here
if it gets to a point where it gets
partway through the update and then it
jumps to 100% And reboots that is
totally normal again just stay put for a
few minutes let it do its thing and
hopefully when it reboots you should
have custom farm where now when your
system boots up it should look a little
bit different here but one of the nice
thing is you might be seeing some
differences right off the bat here on
the xmb first of all if you had webman
installed you'll notice that webman has
already loaded in and you have access to
webman games you also no longer have
access to enable hen because well
there's nothing to enable anymore you
can now just simply turn on your console
and it is in a modified State because we
do have the package manager right here
so if you want to install any package
files you can do so right off the bat
here without having to enable h on top
of that many people have wondered if
they go through this process will they
lose their data from PS3 H and the nice
thing is no you're not going to you can
see here I can go to my webman games I
had a few PS3 games that I had backed up
so I can load in my house the Dead
overkill and as you can see the iso is
found it is loaded in it's able to mount
without any issue another nice thing too
is since we are back on the land of
custom firmware I have a few PS2 games
that are on here and the nice thing here
is that on PS3 hen they have to be
encrypted to play however with custom
firmware you can just put the PS2 isos
on a USB drive or on the internal drive
and play them with no issue as long as
they are compatible on top of that any
type of Homebrew applications emulators
or resigned games will work just fine as
if they had before for example here I
have Scott Pilgrim versus the world
which I had resigned and just to show
you all I can go ahead fire this up now
I end up giving this some time to boot
up here but as you can see it was able
to launch boot up and it is playable
without any issues thankfully like I
said before this is a game that I had
actually resigned prior on the console
but going from PS3 hen to custom
firmware did not impact it so it is
working here just like any of the other
Homebrew or applications really the only
thing you might need to look out for is
if you have any home brew on your system
that needs to be updated for a higher
firmware you'll just have to go out get
the latest updates for those pieces of
home brw and install them but aside from
that everything here should be just fine
let's go ahead and exit out of this
though now if you follow this video to
the end here congratulations you're now
on the land of custom firmware and I'm
sure you're a little bit relieved coming
from PS3 hin now that you have custom
firmware however keep in mind that many
of these advancements here including PS3
hin were not possible without the PS3 XO
team and they really awesome efforts for
a while there was nothing possible on
the super slim PS3 and even when we had
some modifications there it was not
nearly as refined as PS3 H so really
they made the impossible possible on top
of that being able to jailbreak right
through the web browser was not possible
until several years ago again thanks to
the efforts of the PS3 exploit team if
you got any good value out of their
tools applications and updates I would
always recommend giving them a donation
here it helps you out it helps out the
community and it helps out the team
their link will be down below in the
description and you can check out and
see where you can donate to them but a
big thank you and Shout Out goes out to
them for their continued efforts on the
PS3 anyways that is about it for this
video here hopefully it helped you all
out and if it did a like would
absolutely be appreciated if you didn't
like it a dislike is fine as well too
but as I always say this is Mr Mario
signing off thank you all for watching
