PS3 Artemis PS3 (r6.3): Cheating system updated with 4.8x CFW Support & New Features added

Developer @dnawrkshp originally ported Lazy Bastards's Artemis to the PS3. The PlayStation 3 port is a cheating system for applying cheat to games utilized on CFW/HEN enabled console's that also comes with a companion plugin (sprx) for additional functionality. @bucanero who you may recall is the developer who ported PKGi recently to the PS3. has now turned attention to updating Artemis-PS3 for 4.85 use and the developer has added two new features to go along. First, we have an Online Cheat Database that will allow you keep your cheats up to date with a simple online download and also a Local Database Update feature has also been incorporated into the system. Also a shoutout to @Berion who's designs still looks great in the GUI :) .

    Hello,

    As a little side project, I've forked Artemis PS3 and added the following network features:
    • Online Cheat Database: access to the latest cheats for over +2300 games online.
    • Local Database Update: download and update your local cheat database with the latest codes.

    on the UI, these are the new features available:
    • Added Online DB option (main menu)
    • Added Update local cheats (options menu)
    • Added :but l1:/:but r1: triggers to improve game list browsing
    • Added user confirmation dialog when unloading the plugin ( :but square: on the main menu)
    • Added exit to XMB without changes ( :but cir: on the main menu)

    I've also included the modded Artemis plugin from vr5 (by @haxxxen ).

    An Open Source Playstation 3 Hacking System created under the Project Artemis initiative (http://www.gamehacking.org/artemis)​

    Your PS3 must be running CFW 3.55 or above (DEX and CEX supported)!

    Installing Artemis PS3


    Installing cheat codes

    • Choose between installing the .ncl file on a flash drive or in the Artemis installation directory
    • For the flash drive make a new folder on the root called USERLIST
    • Inside the folder place any .ncl files inside it
    • Insert the usb drive into the right usb slot of your PS3 and launch Artemis PS3
    • For the installation directory method launch an FTP server on your PS3 (multiman)
    • Navigate to /dev_hdd0/game/ARTPS3001/USRDIR/USERLIST/
    • Place any .ncl files inside the folder and launch Artemis PS3

    Using Artemis

    • Launch Artemis from the XMB and selected your codes
    • Once you have selected your codes Press X on Start in the main menu
    • You should hear a single beep (if you hear three MAMBA failed to install)
    • From here you can launch the game or launch homebrew to mount the game
    • When the game has launched, a notification will appear telling you to press Start to attach
    • Once you are ready to use your codes in the game, open the in game XMB by pressing the PS button
    • HOLD Start until Artemis says that it has attached
    • At this point any codes chosen to constant write will be constantly writing
    • For any single write codes you wish to write again, just enter the in game XMB again and hold Start
    • If you wish the detatch (and therefore stop constant writing), enter the in game XMB and HOLD Select

    Creating cheat lists (.ncl)

    • NetCheat List Files are built into NetCheat PS3
    • Download and run NetCheatPS3
    • In the codes tab create a new code and name it as you wish
    • Within the textbox enter any NetCheat PS3 codes (or use the Codelist by clicking the square on the bottom left)
    • Finally click Save All and specify a save location for the new .ncl

    Creating advanced cheat lists (.ncl)


    New in Artemis PS3 is the ability to add option tags.
    These tags enable you to specify options for a code that has multiple effects for one address.
    Using tags instead of multiple codes condenses the overall cheats list.
    The format for an option tag is very specific and must be used exactly as described.
    A tag begin with brackets that surround an ID ([Z]).
    This ID must be a collection of capital Z's.
    For instance, a tag such as [ZZZZ] has an ID of ZZZZ. [zz] is not a valid ID.
    Following the opening tag are the elements, or options.
    Each element begins with the value that the option represents, an equal sign (=), and the name of the option.
    Elements are separated by semicolons (;).
    So right now an option tag would look something like this: [ZZ]0010=This is 0x10;0020=This is 0x20
    But now we have to end the tag. To end an option tag you simply add a forward slash (/) in front of the ID and surround that with brackets ([/Z]).
    Finally to actually implement this as a value for a code, simply put the ID of the tag anywhere in the code you'd like.
    For instance, in Jak 1 there are 4 different types of eco states you can be in. Red, blue, green, and yellow.
    Each uses the same line. So the appropriate code using option tags would be:
    0 201FEE08 ZZ
    0 201FEE18 FFFFFF7F
    0 201FEE0C 00000040
    [ZZ]01=Yellow;02=Red;03=Blue;04=Green[/ZZ]

Hello there I can't seem to get Assassin's Creed 3 Special Edition BLES01668 cheats to work? The game either has update ver 1.0 before update and it updates to 2.4? The cheats are for only game update 1.0.1 ???

Also when I use webman on the order version (haven't updated to new version yet) on webman with artemis when enabling cheats my ps3 freezes? Not all the time, but most times. It will also freeze mid game? On CEX. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you

have you tried using the cheats with the stock v1.00 version?
even if the version you have doesn't match the .ncl file, you can try it anyways. Many times the codes will work alright.

I tried all of them and none of them work. I can't use webman all cheats freeze. When I use multiman artemis works great and doesn't freeze. I have uninstalled webman until I can figure out how to stop freezing my games with artemis.

yes sometimes Command & Conquer Red Alert 3 beles00508 cheat BLES00506 is working it even works
 
Have encountered some issues now again with R6 plugin, and the 6.1 version.
So using R6, and webman lite (even disabling it before booting games), i can load fine, memcheats can be set to constant if it aint an ASM code. But usually when I hit first loading screens, for a new level, or autosave points, the screen freezes and goes all black. Having to pull the cord to reboot it.

Now for the R6.1 version application, it boots up fine, extracts cheats, and plugin selector works too. Now the issue arises more on next time i boot the ps3, and try to start artemis again, its just a black screen. Hitting power button does nothing but blink, like its in an infinite loop. Again, having to pull the cord. Not sure if its contained to webman or not, but earlier tests have been alike even with webman uninstalled when using.
Could this also be linked to the art.txt and artstate in tmp folder (the black screen freeze on 2nd load). Does this only get cleared when using Quit Game instead of turn off system?

I'm also not sure if some of these freezing issues are more based on PS3 models or so. As I'm on an older type that can be downgraded. Whereas superslims might be more compatible due to newer equipment in them?

So for now I'm still stuck at the original R5 plugin, and R6 app version :D
Basically the r5 haxxen and r6 that was made both have same "black screen freeze on first load/autosave screen".

And yes, it was tested on very low spec games (think oldschool arcade styles, 300mb size games).

I'll keep on testing back and forth a bit now and then. But seeing all these reports of people who has it working flawlessly, or failing like mine do or worse, makes me wonder if it really is PS3 model causing some of it.

I freeze on webman as well, but artemis works just fine with multiman. Think I'll just stay on multiman until there is a fix.

no, it shouldn't have anything to do with the art* files in dev_hdd0/tmp/
have you tried disabling the "version update check" in Settings? it's the only additional thing I added during App launch, and maybe there's an issue or lockup there... honestly never happened to me.

just a note: vr5 by haxxxen is the same plugin as r6. I just renamed it on the GUI because "r5" and "vr5" could bring too many mix ups.

So yes, you had the same black screens and issues because they're the same.

And yes, it was tested on very low spec games (think oldschool arcade styles, 300mb size games).

From my experience, if you have issues with Artemis, it won't matter the size of the game. During my tests with HEN, when using the "r6" plugin I couldn't save my game progress or achieve a trophy even on small games like After Burner Climax. The same behaviour could be seen in every game other game.
Then, on HEN using the original r5 plugin by Dnawrkshp, everything worked just fine, loading, saving, getting trophies, even on huge games like Persona 5 or Drakengard 3 while webman mod was loaded.

the freeze when leaving a game is a known bug in the r5 plugin. An option is to use the "shutdown" menu option.

the once/constant option has nothing to do with it.

do you say turn off by the PS button? one last question, the codes for BLES 01765 dark souls prepare to die don't work, could you add the cheats for version 1.09 of the game?

Hello @bucanero,
I have an answer to my problem: I took the test emulating a game on Multiman, I activated the codes through artemis and clicked on start game. To exit, PS button and I click on the Network tab> Hibrid firmware tools and ok! leaving the game WITHOUT ANY FREEZES I was happy, so I didn't even have to actually turn off the PS3

Thanks !
