PS3 Apollo save tool (development thread)

[Rambo9000]

The PR has been merged into the PS3HEN repo, so the next official HEN release should include the "act.dat restore" function

NPEB02130 JUJU act.dat 1111 I ran reactpsn then copied act.dat 1111 and opened this game worked fine.

For some reason the original code was not working, but it was different than the current. I didn't confirm the infinite loop, but it could be a cause. That's why I added the break.

I think the cellFsGetDirectoryEntries was restarting when the link was created, causing the infinite loop.

Yes it must have been something along those lines, changing the directory contents by adding a link probably messed with the cellFsGetDirectoryEntries call outcome in the while loop.

According to Jason's feedback & the couple of ss he showed me at the time, the infinite loop itself was obvious in the debug build due to the repeat entries in the socat output.

I know it's not uncommon, but I'm still surprised when I find videos about my tools

The game you will see in the video remains black screen in Reactpsn, it is also valid in banned psn. it has nothing to do with apollo bucunero

 

[Rambo9000]

no problem with apollo account activation

 

[Rambo9000]

hfw 4.88 reactpsn some game stays black I said it might be apollo account activation, but it's not from that, it's all from reactpsn

I have simplified the "restore act.dat" patch and it's working properly now; the feedback from users/testers is positive and all weird issues went away. I submitted a PR with the patch here: https://github.com/PS3Xploit/PS3HEN/pull/39

btw, I built alternative binaries if more users want to test out and share feedback:

if you don't want to use webman mod, the only other option to restore act.dat on HEN is to use the custom PS3HEN binary that I built with the copy patch: https://www.mediafire.com/file/xv74yfiyo3sgczx/PS3HEN_BIN-restore-act.zip/file

or you can copy the file manually after HEN boots using FTP or a file manager.

Salut @bucanero

Pourrais-tu me donner la marche-à suivre (la méthode) pour installer des SAVEs de PS2 de 16 et 32 Mo sur ma PS3 Slim compatible au CFW CECH-2504B (REBUG-4.84.2 REX) et celle sous le HEN-3.0.3 (UltraSlim CECH-4204C en HFW-4.88/HEN-3.0.3).

Je t'en remercie par avance et te souhaite une bonne année 2022 fructueuse, pleine de bonnes choses.

Algol "le papy"...


Could you give me the procedure (the method) to install 16 and 32 MB PS2 SAVEs on my PS3 Slim compatible with CFW CECH-2504B (REBUG-4.84.2 REX) and the one under HEN-3.0 .3 (UltraSlim CECH-4204C in HFW-4.88 / HEN-3.0.3).

I thank you in advance and wish you a happy new year 2022, full of good things.

I downloaded, rewrote and copied, but it doesn't work. Where am I going wrong? When we say two files, do we need to copy 2 files?

 

[Rambo9000]
