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]

Yes I am trying to use the US version of the game. Should I uninstall the updates also? if so how should i do that, kinda still a newbie to CFW and such.
yes, unfortunately you have to uninstall the update with gamedata tool from XMB. if you have a DLC installed for this game, you better make a backup of the gamedata folder

does this game have online capabilities?

It did have online cap, but the servers got shut down. so its just login into psn and cannot play online if you know what i mean

hm, so I have to trust your answer, cause I do not own this game to try for myself. I don't want to ruin online gameplay for the honest players out there, when porting codes

which update do you have installed? (guess the latest 1.06)

I meant like the servers to play online for the game are shut down. you cannot play with other players. sorry lol and yeah i have the 1.06 update installed cause idk how to bypass the update screen from being connected online. all i have to do is delete the update folder right i assume?

yes, just delete in gamedata tool on XMB the update (folder) for Twisted Metal

I have took a glance on 1.06 update, and I am very surprised, cause the updated EBOOT is invalid. how can this game run at all with this EBOOT? never saw anything like that

I have no clue lol, im going to try the .ncl files you gave me here in a sec
 
erm wait, can you send me beforehand the EBOOT from update folder?

edit
nvm, have used pkgview now to extract the executable, and now it is fine
 
just modify param.sfo to something like 9.99

nah, just wanted to port codes to latest update, but it seems the executable was changed too much and it gets a bit difficult to port all of them. sorry, but not worth the effort
no problem, i can just play on 1.00 and still get trophies right?
 
Hi! Sick tool! Bought a PS3 few days ago and firing up all my childhood titles.
But I couldn't find any cheats for Splinter Cell:Blacklist.
Anyway there might be some around or a trainer at least? Thanks
 
also just tried using the USA one of the .ncl and didnt work which is weird.
ok, not really my fault. have found some cheat pkgs, and just ported those codes to v1.00/1.06 and removed the .ncl files from previous post

hopefully these will work now. you can also apply update(s) now if you want but only added latest 1.06, so be sure to apply it at last

here you go...(but only EU version)

I was messing with some trainer engine from dron_3, but never had enough interest or patience to improve it, cause it was very buggy

sorry me, but I have made mistake with cheats for ON/OFF and switched them. furthermore I have ported them to BLUS and BLES RUS version now, so please redownload the attachment above

credits to dron_3 for codes

@bucanero
you can add Splinter Cell to your database, cause I can assure these are 100% working

Thanks! Sorry I'm new to Artemis and CFW so learning slowly, had one more question as I'm stumped.

saw the message below on Artemis regarding adding mods to Tomb Raider Trilogy…
Obvs I have no idea what this means, loading game from ISO on NTFS drive using webman. Could anyone please point me in the right direction how I'd go about this or what it means? Thanks.
