PS3 CFW Folder Checker Homebrew App and Source Code Arrive

Category: PS3 CFW & MFW  By: PS3 News - (psx-scene.com)
Tags: ps3 cfw folder checker ps3 homebrew apps ps3 source code psdev ps3cfw ps3 cfw

76w ago - This weekend PlayStation 3 developer PsDev has released a homebrew application called PS3 CFW Folder Checker along with the source code as well.

Download: PS3 CFW Folder Checker Homebrew App and Source Code

From the included ReadMe file: Just place the .exe file in your flash drive where you have your folders and cfw setup run it and it will tell you if there is a typo, the foldername correct, the pup name correct and then if so it tell you your ready to go.

Took me 5 min.

Follow me on twitter at RealPsDev

Source Code:

#include <Windows.h>
#include <direct.h>
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>

#pragma comment(lib, "shlwapi.lib")
#include <shlwapi.h>

using namespace std;
typedef unsigned int u32;

/*******************************************************************************
 * Check if a file or a folder exists
 ******************************************************************************/
bool Exists(string Path)
{
	return GetFileAttributes(Path.c_str()) != INVALID_FILE_ATTRIBUTES;
}

/*******************************************************************************
 * Quit the application with a message
 ******************************************************************************/
void Quit(string Message)
{
	cout << Message.c_str() << "\r\nPress any key to continue...";
	cin.get();
	exit(0);
}

/*******************************************************************************
 * Entry Point
 ******************************************************************************/
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
	// - Show banner
	cout << "*****************************************************\r\n";
	cout << "**\r\n";
	cout << "** \tCFW Checker\r\n";
	cout << "**\tFollow me on twitter @ RealPsDev\r\n";
	cout << "**\tI was bored made in 5min\r\n";
	cout << "**\r\n";
	cout << "*****************************************************\r\n\r\n";

	// - Get CFW Path
	char ExePath[MAX_PATH];
	GetModuleFileName(NULL, ExePath, MAX_PATH);

	string SourcePath = string(ExePath);
	SourcePath.erase(SourcePath.rfind("\\"));

	// - Verify 'Cfw' folder
	SourcePath += "\\PS3\\UPDATE\\PS3UPDAT.PUP";
	cout << "- Checking see if Folders For CFW are correct" << endl;

	if (!Exists(SourcePath))
		Quit("Error: Folders are not correct(" + SourcePath + ")\r\n");

	
	Quit("\r\nYou are now ready to the USB into the ps3!\r\n");
	return 0;
}

Finally, from PsDev on PS3 lv0: http://pastie.org/2967339

you can already get the code for it on MFW source. Not really that hard to integrate it to this, but anyway it's pointless.

its not really that great app, plus if you place a OFW, it tells that CFW is there, no checking of actual files has been done.

100%. IIRC, some dev had an app that cheks Update.pup for the version.

But I really do not get involved in this, because I can see this PsDev tweeting over the world that I've stolen his "idea", etc, etc, all this PS3 scene drama, you know the drill.

I really can't believe on what RealPsDev wasting they his time (even if it is 5min lol), pointless app that we don't need and now someone will say *you should be grateful* and i am but not with something like this.

He even posted thread on how to dump LV0 but of course, others have to do it but no Dev who thinks he knows how.. basically same as math's walkthrough.

sorry if this sound disrespectful but we all hoping.
