UnBar v0.1 .BAR File UnPacker for PlayStation 3 Released!

[PS3 News]

Today PSP developer FreePlay has released UnBar v0.1, which is an expansion of UnBeat (also linked below, unpacks PSN game 'Beats' .BAR files). UnBar processes the .BAR files from the Home BETA for PlayStation 3.

From the ReadMe File: To use this program, just drag/drop a .BAR file onto the .EXE, or run it from your command prompt/shell with the .BAR file as the argument.

I can't guarantee it'll work ALL the time, but it seems to work OK with the Home Beta 0.86 files. It can correctly identify the following:

* Various types of XML files used by Home
* Unicode XML files
* Java classes
* MIG, PNG, and TGA images
* MP3 and VAG audio
* Lua scripts (almost all the time)
* Autocad .DRW files
* Havok physics files
* Shaders
* Scene packs
* .DDS textures
* Home model files

It renames the following unknown types:
* mr04
* fd05
* sk08
* agf
* klBS
* tsld
* ÿÿÿÿ, ÿû, PRÿ (named after the first few characters in this type of file)

i'm kinda confused, what is the main features of this program and how can we use it...

seems like a nice utility, hopefully using this we can understand more of the ps3 insides.

Nah, this has nothing to do with breaking hypervisor, the PS3's insides, or anything like that ROFL!

It's a MS DOS application... usage instructions are in the ReadMe file included. In short, all this does is unpack .BAR files, which leads nowhere but to unpacked .BAR files for those who wish to examine their contents.
