PS3 Getting explore_plugin_full.rco, and category_game.xml files

Hi guys,

I have a ps3 super slim with Han Ps3xploit, is there any way to get the explore_plugin_full.rco, and category_game.xml files from the ps3 in order to modify the content / category names (I want to delete the t.v category)?

I was checking the Pinky's tutorial but it looks like it is assosiated to Ps3 with cfw.

Regards,

You can use PUAD to extract the Dev_flash from any ps3 pup, and then use rcomage to extract the rco.

Btw both those files you mention are in the han support files. So you can just use those.
 
to delete the tv category: How To Remove Entire Tiers/Categories - This is fairly easy, so I'll keep it short. You need the xmb_plugin_normal.rco and the xmb_ingame.rco. Grab each from your dev_blind.

Then, extract with rco mage. After that, go into the main xml file, and delete the tiers you don't want from Object Tree/Page name/XMenu name/XMList name. After that's done, scroll to XMenu - menus: "0xa." Now, change that to reflect how many tiers you want. "0xa" = 10; "0x5" = 5. It's that simple.

to delete something from a category, add this:
<!--- before the item name and ---> after the query name. it's much easier than the method I put in my tutorials. I don't believe I mentioned this. this way you won't have to delete large sums of text. here's an example (removing app_home:

Code:
<!---<Query
    class="type:x-xmb/folder-pixmap"
    key="seg_gamedebug"
    src="#seg_gamedebug"
    />--->

edit: and, yeah, you need to edit your own files since han makes changes to the category_game.xml and the explore_plugin_full.rco .

Thanks for the clarifications DeViL303 / pinky.

1. In this case I will just delete the entire tv category then I could take xmb_plugin_normal.rco and the xmb_ingame.rco files from the rco_replacer_release-PS3Xploit pack, right?

2. when I extract / pack the files with rco mage, could the xml files have any name?

3. Since 2 files will be modifed how do I inject the files using Han?, I mean, both at the same time or one by one, if ít's one by one the system will reboot after the first file is copied, I'm a little confused.

1. I'm not sure what's in there. I didn't even know there was a pack. you could decrypt the update with PUAD. you might not want to put rco or full in the options. dev_flash would be faster, and just manually extracting the rco's.

2. the xml from rcomage can be named anything that you want.

3. I'm not sure if you can batch install since my knowledge of han is limited.
