Forum Noob
I would like to do copy game (installed from playstation store) from folder hdd0/game but multiman/webman doesn't see games in menu. I see games only in XMB.
Is posssible to copy these games and move to other disk (USB ssd) ?

PS3 SuperSlim/HEN
 
PSN games installed from PS store are stored in /dev_hdd0/game

The folder name typically is the title id of the game (e.g. /dev_hdd0/game/NPUB12345). Some games use a suffix like NPUB12345_INSTALL, NPUB12345_DATA, etc.

You can use any file manager like multiMAN, IRISMAN, ManaGunZ, webMAN, etc. to copy the folder to USB formatted in FAT32.
If the game doesn't contain files larger than 4GB the game can be played from the external USB if you copy the game to the folder GAMEI and use webMAN to scan & mount that folder.

Another method is download the PKG from PS store and extract the PKG on the PC, then move the extracted folder to GAMEI.
e.g. X:\GAMEI\NPUB12345

If the game is already installed on XMB, pressing SELECT+SQUARE the folder /dev_hdd0/game is redirected to /dev_usb000/GAMEI

it's not working :(
I copied 2 selected games (<3GB) and moved them to GAMEI, refresh multiman=nothing, refresh webman=nothing, still don't see games

This must be done on each boot ? I remember toggling the external game data on HEN but at reboot i had to repeat it .
 
its not na answer for my question

I want to do copy game from dev_hdd0/game and move it to USB ssd disc, its easy, but when I want to search this game on PS3 - its not working = multiman/webman and others doesn't see game which I copy to any other folder... I rebuilt data base, scan folder, refresh game list & XMB and still the same problem... so... I need a answer for this how can I do that.

If you copied the games folders from /dev_hdd0/game to /dev_usb000/GAMEI, they should appear listed on webMAN MOD

It is required that you mark the option GAMEI in /setup.ps3 then save the settings and refresh the XML - game list.

The /dev_usb000/GAMEI should contain PARAM.SFO, ICON0.PNG and EBOOT.BIN in paths like this:

/dev_usb000/GAMEI/NPUB12345/ICON0.PNG
/dev_usb000/GAMEI/NPUB12345/PARAM.SFO
/dev_usb000/GAMEI/NPUB12345/USRDIR/EBOOT.BIN

That's the thing - just like HEN itself needs activating on each boot, some features will not carry over between sessions and so will need to be re-applied. On CFW which is automatically booted into, all changes made will be preserved between power cycles.
