RFOM Exploit possible?

[rafaelfilipe]

PS3 fan, you can wait less than a week, I should receive one resistance and try it and share the feedback.

I think it is just maybe the US oblivion game, I did the RFOM swap with Spiderman 3 on my (US) FW 1.10 system (US games) and it WORKED! I didn't delete any game saves or nothing!?

P.S. thanks HackITandC! I'm just happy your method works!!

JAP FW 1.31 with JAP RFOM and Motostorm FW 1.50 PAL is working. Thank you very much HackITandC

Anyone brave enough to upgrade to 1.80 can test if it's still working ... :??

if you upgrade to 1.8 you'll have the highest upgrade and the game would have to load.

Hi Friends, it should work as THEY cant patch your (existing) games ;-) You will only realy know when their will be a game which will require v1.81/v1.90 firmware etc BUT it should work (in theory) as structures etc will be the same. Cant say too much but it should work fine!!

PS: Swap still works with 1.80 BUT you wont need it!

Indeed - but that's not the point - we just want to confirm that it's still possible to boot the game this way once the new games with higher fw version requirement will be available it will be tested with them ... ;-)

Here is another variant of this method to bypass the PS3 HD Check:

You remember the error that say "This game is not supported"? That happen because you don't have HD TV and use a NTSC Game (Not all Games) in a PAL Console or viceversa! This method use the same exploit of the "Firmware Bypass" * Run Resistance Fall of Man UNPATCHED * Start the game * Press Start * Switch the BD Disc * Press Save and Exit * THE GAME WILL START! (There absolutly no graphic problem!! I dunno why Sony add this check!) I think the same can happen with PS1/PS2 game with different region! Tested with OBLIVION IV (PAL) with NTSC JAP PS3 on Firmware 1.80 and SDTV
