PS3 XMB homebrew Titles and Covers - where?

Hello!

I have a Problem with a game that I installed.
It shows the wrong Title and Graphics, but I can start it and it runs properly.
But in XMB and webman and modman it has the name and picture of another game (the one above it).
It is kinda annoying, and I dont know how why this happened. I assume it is some kind of bug.
I am running Rebug 4.86.1 Lite.

WHERE can I change the title and picture? I read they are stored in a database.
Also, what could be causing this issue?

Thanks!
 
hm found something in xmlhost/game_plugin
looks like mygame.xml has pointers to the graphics and the titles... I'll investigate that.
Maybe I can fix the mess by editing these files, but still doesn't tell me why/how it happened in the first place.
 
ok I found the reason, but not the cause. I added all these games with mmCM. It seems to have some kind of bug, and generated this flaw in
xmlhost/mygames.xml:

<Table key="0010">
<Pair key="icon"><String>/dev_hdd0//game/BLES80608/USRDIR/covers/BLES01765.JPG</String></Pair>
<Pair key="title"><String>DARK SOULS PREPARE TO DIE EDITION</String></Pair>
<Pair key="module_name"><String>idle_plugin</String></Pair>
<Pair key="bar_action"><String>none</String></Pair>
<Pair key="module_action"><String>/mount_ps3/dev_hdd0/PS3ISO/BLUS30767-[Dragon_s+Crown].iso</String></Pair>
<Pair key="info"><String>/dev_hdd0/PS3ISO</String></Pair>
</Table>

no Idea how tf this happened,... as I said - must be a bug in modman.
 
Alright, I managed to fix the Symptom, but naturally not the Cause (multiman bug).

anyway, I had to fix it in 2 ways to get it right in both multiman and webman:

For Webman, I had to edit: xmlhost/mygames.xml
and correct the Title (Name), as well as the Filename of the Image to /dev_hdd0//game/BLES80608/USRDIR/covers/BLUS30767.JPG

For Multiman, I had to edit: /game/BLES80608/USRDIR/cache/net/ps3_BLUS30767-[Dragon_s Crown].SFO
with an SFO Editor, because for some reason Multiman had changed the Title inside to Dark Souls.

man... I guess I'll be installing games only with Webman in the Future.
 
Check the PARAM.SFO of your game.

The title displayed in webMAN MOD is obtained from PARAM.SFO

PARAM.SFO may have titles for multiple languages. webMAN MOD will use the one corresponding to the language selected in /setup.ps3

If you re-scan the games, you don't need to edit mygames.xml
 
the Param SFO, and in fact the whole ISA was 100% accurate and original when I transferred the ISOs and installed them.
It was messed up by multiman (mmCM) on installation in the directories and files I already listed above.
I guess there is one more file to fix though, because the webinterface of webman still displays the wrong game title and cover-art.
I assume this I have to fix inside the webman install folder...
I'll report back when I have solved it.

Click to expand...

webMAN MOD uses Cover Art etc from MultiMAN, and MultiMAN auto downloads them from a data base and is purely based on the games BL code with the param.sfo, not all games and covers are available so for example for Dark Souls for me, I have the standard UK edition of the game, it displays the Limited edition cover for my BL code, but the right cover is there for the Standard European version of the game which is the same cover as the st UK version.

This can be easily changed within MultiMAN by replacing the cover art for something else, say the cover for the version you have.
 
thank you for the tip with webman. I changed in the webman setup to ignore multiman covers. But I still had to fix residue of the bug in /tmp/wmtmp and re-edit
/xmlhost/game_plugin/mygames.xml and
/game/BLES80608/USRDIR/covers/
/game/BLES80608/USRDIR/cache/net/

I may sound like a Conspiracy theory, but multiman literally edited the SFO file and filled in wrong data for this game, dropped the edited SFO file in its net-cache folder, and then the whole system got infected by this wrong data....
