PS3HEN problem with GAMES ps3 folder

[TheuZma]

Good evening!
I have a problem with my GAMES file, every time I install a PKG file this file goes to a folder called game, and from what I've read on some sites the root folder for games has to be named GAMES, all in capital letters and plural, but every time I rename the game folder to GAMES the ps3 doesn't recognize the games. I had a problem with a game that required multiman to normalize, but multiman only recognizes games that are in the GAMES folder, and even I changed the folder name it doesn't recognize it. Does anyone know how I put the installation directory in the GAMES folder and not the game, I've tried deleting the folder to see if it installs in the right folder, but it creates another game folder.

PSN games, updates, and dlc will install to dev_hdd0/game and should be left there.

ISO and similar files go in PS3ISO, PS2ISO, etc

jb folder and CFW2OFW games go in dev_hdd0/GAMESZ folder

the games folder is why all my jtag rips on the 360 are in the games folder on there. I was just used to it even though you can name the folder anything, since you're linking to the folder manually for your games.

But then how do I get the PSN Games to appear in multiman, I saw on a website that it only recognizes the games if it's in the GAMES folder.

So, I've already tried renaming the folder to GAMES, but every time I rename the games and apps they disappear.

only recognizes the games if it's in the GAMES folder.

multiman is for ISO and folder games. pkg games do not need multiman/webman/irisman, even if they are backups.

that will not work. the files in "game" folder must stay there. these are installed files from disc, psn, update, dlc. backup folders and ISO files do not go in that folder.

aaahhh I get it, thank you very much for the explanation, I was talking about multiman, because I went to see a tutorial on youtube and the guy messed with a game setup in multiman, but now I understand how it works, thank you very much!
