XMB Game Tree for HAN - place your games on console to catalogues

The metadata_db_hdd structure is not documented (or I just could not find it). I didn't do complete reversing engineering, I'm just looking by pattern for everything that looks like games.

Thx, im asking because i been looking at it latelly and im trying to imagine which patterns are you using to find the titleid's
Are you using patterns like "NP*******" etc... ?

Also, im guessing first you locate the titleid and after that you "move around" it, right ?
I think i have mapped a lot of the values around the titleid, but right now i have not found yet how to move 1 level up in the hierarchy

Using the concept of an onion with layers... im trapped in a inner layer of the onion and im wondering if you found to to move to other layers :)

Perhaps we need also parse idx file for get root?
For search pattern I use "/dev_hdd0/game\0\0\0\0\x10\xD0".
See attached file for source of database game extractor.

[QUOTE = "horovo_games, post: 172217, member: 44441"] Talvez nós também precisemos analisar o arquivo idx para obter root?
Para o padrão de pesquisa eu uso "/ dev_hdd0 / game \ 0 \ 0 \ 0 \ 0 \ x10 \ xD0".
Veja o arquivo anexo para obter a fonte do extrator de jogos de banco de dados. [/ QUOTE]
Your tool is very good, but if I install a new game, I will have to update the database to update the game list, then extract the metadata_db_hdd file, open it in the program to generate a pkg file with the updated list of the games and then install it again on the console. Having to do this every time you install a new game. Is it possible to use the directory you found to find the games on hd, make it do everything automatically without having to do the whole procedure again?

No, you can just add new game in your desktop's list, manually or by extract from game's pkg (button with cube above game list), and again create and install pkg.
Import from metadata database need only at first time, to easy fill initial list of your games, just not to fill it in manually.

For programm interface I use Urho3D game engine.
It allows you to paste into the line edit any character by Ctrl+V, but if it is not in the standard font, you will not see it in the editor. But he will be there. As they say in Russia - "You see a gopher? No, and I do not see. But he is there." The method "copy square from text file and paste to folder name" must work (you can try paste and than delete by backspace and you see that you have invisible symbol in editor).
Or you can try replace UI font in programm - it in Data\Fonts folder. I will think about the solution of this question - maybe I will modify the font, include these icons in it and add a button to insert such symbols.

Is tricky and are 2 different features, to display the special characters (like the start of "install packages") in the program is needed to add full font support and you need to install the official PS3 TTF files in your PC
Without that TTF files installed in your microsoft windows PC is imposible to display them

The second feature are the icons inside imagefont.bin, to display then inside a program is needed to implement a bunch of functions in it and you need to have the official PS3 imagefont.bin in your PC

So... in both cases you need to extract some files from the PS3 firmware to use them in your PC
