LiveShell Engine

LiveShell Engine v1.6.0

Animated avatars.


What's new

  • Animated avatars 🎞️
    • Give every PS5 user a moving profile picture: an APNG (animated PNG) or a GIF.
    • It shows everywhere the avatar appears: the home screen, your profile, the user switch, and the login screen, also after rest mode.
    • Choose it in the new Avatar panel or in Settings β†’ Users.
    • Put your files in /data/LiveShell/avatar/ or on a USB drive in liveshell/avatar/ Or upload one from the phone/PC page.
    • Every pick is prepared on the PS5 so it plays cleanly: GIFs become APNGs because its what ps5 only support.

liveshell.elf : Waits for the PS5 to finish starting up (2 min after power-on) before the wallpaper starts. Safer with autoload right after power-on.
liveshell-fast.elf : No wait. liveshell runs faster.
