convert pkg/psn content to iso format

today I come with more questions, and it is like passing a game in pkg format, downloaded from the servers of $ony ;D to an iso format, search in google tutorials and some are obsolescent and others very complicated. I try to do the tutorials but I always fail in something or I'm missing something. If you can pass me a link of a tutorial I would appreciate it but if you explain it to me here it would be a success.

postscript: please explain with mansanas and pears because there is always a mistake in the process and a requirement that is not obligated but then yes, and then I can not find it. Explain well please

and before I forget, I'm in PS3HEN if I have to put a special patch to run in CEX or something like that do not forget to say
 
If its a bought game off PSN then there will be a RIF for it on the PS3, convert that back to a RAP.

here one of my mistakes when trying
 
I think you need to install 1.0. if the klicense isn't present in the database, you'll have to dump it with the system.

OK but how?

that's why he said to explain to me with apples
 
You can also use this tutorial. I used it for all but one game that I was able to convert around 20 of them, didn't work with Resident Evil 4.

Interesting tutorial. I managed to do with a very VERY similar method, as seen in this video:

NOTE: I did not mod the EBOOT and the game worked fine for me.


Hmm, the problem with PSN Liberator is that you need the RAP / RIF. If you do not have it, you may face problems. Also, it seems PSN liberator will ALWAYS mod the EBOOT and I think that neither HAN nor HEN likes to work with modified EBOOT, or the way they are being modded is not the right. I prefer to avoid mod it. In fact, I never has to mod it for any game with HAN and HEN.

Yeah it could be different on HEN...

I use CFW so it makes no difference if the EBOOT is modded. For the game to be converted from PSN ( flagged as an HDD boot game) to ISO the flags in the para.sfo and the EBOOT have to be changed from HDD boot to disc boot. But there could be hardcoded paths in the EBOOT to which the game is looking for files from. Plus PSN Liberator does not work will all games when it comes to conversion from one format to the other , simply liberating the game will work if you liberate a PKG to PKG.

IF you dont have the RAP/RIF then your stuffed as it won't do thing wiht the game, and brute forceing something like this from a game can take a good while. PLus if you don't have the RAP RIF then who ever has done this has most likely pirated the game.

Makes sense. I guess that's why the CFW2OFW method to run backups (ISO+UPDATE) doesn't mod the EBOOT, because it uses the one included in the update, that has already the needed flags. I suppose.

bruteforcing a rif key would likely take millions of years so don't even bother.
That's a shame. There should be an easier way to crack these codes...
 
PSN Liberator is 4.22key, so you need to re-sign eboot self sprx to 3.55key after conversion, and some games force to read hdd path by default. These can only be modified by ida to modify eboot.bin to run with iso.
