To quote: Some features...

• Read/save cheats database for ps3usercheat (st.dat)
• Search/filter games
• Sort database by column (Title ID, Name, Version, number of cheats, region) (database is saved in the selected order)
• Added option to rearrange the position of the games in the list (use Alt+Up arrow / Alt+Down arrow in the listview)
• Exports selected games as text files
• Imports text file (exported format) and append to current database
• Allows to save the description in TITLE ID + NAME + VERSION (without < > and region)
• It accepts the file as a command line parameter (useful to open through batch files or associate extensions)
• Support for drag & drop
• Lots of keyboard shortcuts

The tool keeps internally the version read from the file. If you edit a game's title, you will notice that it includes the version (from the description). The program will parse the edited text and will search for ##.## (eg. 01.05). If it is found, it stores 01 05 in the database. If the pattern ##.## is not found, it will use 01.00 by default So, it's important to always include the version in the game's description.

That was exactly the part that deank helped me to figure out. BTW I updated the icon for the PSN games in the program.

Build 1.4:

0- The import now merges the cheats. So if user A has 3 cheats, and user B has 2 cheats (1 common, 1 different). User A imports cheats from B (or B imports cheats from A), in both cases the database should contain 4 cheats.
1- Added extension .ps3cheat
2- Added a suggested name for export
3- Use F2 to edit individual cheat title
4- The OCX is required. I could remove it, but it would be a lot of work, due I would have to program all the functions of the OCX. You can make a SFX and put the OCX and the EXE, the EXE will automatically register the OCX.
5- TXT format can be used for that
6- Fixed the window title (it said PS3 Game Editor instead of PS3 Cheats Editor)

Changelog:

PS3 Cheats Editor 2.6.2:

Edits the cheats database for ps3usercheat (st.dat). Allows export/import cheats to the database in text and binary formats. 3.55 CFW is required.

Now the cheats compatible with the EBOOT hack can be identified easily. This version includes a cheats database for 520 games compiled by gingerbread at ps3hax and a link to his discussion thread. Thanks to SkillerCMPnow the EBOOT patcher supports code type: 0T00 (8bit), 1T00 (16bit), 2T00 (32bit), 4T00 (Serial codes), 5T00 (Copy codes)

Special thanks to skillerCMP, gingerbread, BahumatLord, haxxxen and bungholio for the tutorial about converting CU codes.

More PlayStation 3 News...

That done the trick. Thanks Chief!

Also from aldostools: I have updated my PS3 Tools

In this version I moved all the tools to a "tools" folder. Just run the PS3 Tools Menu.exe. The titleid and md5 databases are updated.

The "PKG ContentID" application now acts as a hub for various tasks from Windows Explorer:

• Double click on a PUP to view its content using ifcaro' PUPView
• Double click on a PKG to view its content using ifcaro' PKGView
• Double click on a BIN, SELF or SPRX to view the info using scetools
• Ctrl+Enter on a BIN, SELF or SPRX to resign the file using scetools (includes 3.60 keys)
• Shift+Enter on a PKG to extract the PKG
• Ctrl+Enter on a PKG to view the PKG Content ID
• Shift+Ctrl+Enter on a PKG to repack a retail PKG as debug PKG - useful for DEX users.
• Right click on a PKG and select Make PKG to create a PKG.

Almost all the tools now return to the menu clicking on the right-top blue icon

Added drag & drop support to Create PS3_EXTRA and PS3RIP. PS3 Game Updates is included in the zip.

Download: http://www.aldostools.org/ps3tools.zip

Note: if you need to use your own batch to resign the EBOOTs, create a file named "custom_eboot_fix.bat" in the folder of scetool.

I programmed a FixELF.exe (16kb) that does the hex replace (same as binmay - freecode.com/projects/binmay). But it is specialized for this this task if no parameter is provided, it asumes EBOOT.ELF "24 13 BC C5 F6 00 33 00 00 00 36" "24 13 BC C5 F6 00 33 00 00 00 34"

I just integrated it to my PS3 Tools, so to resign an EBOOT.BIN just double-click on it hodling Ctrl (or press Ctrl+Enter on it) and it makes a resigned EBOOT.BIN and EBOOT.BIN_ORIGINAL

It is required to run once the PKG ContentID.exe to associate the files.

Quick Tutorial for Converting PS3 3.60 Games to 3.55 Using PS3 Tools:

You may want to try redownloading it (using the same link above) as apparently since the initial 1.0 release it has been updated with v1.0.1, v1.0.2, v1.0.3 and v1.0.4 to fix some of the bugs:

• Fixed bug: 'error 70 - access denied' on Windows 64bit
• Fixed bug: 'stop download if game folder is collapsed'
• Fixed bug: 'Verify button disabled pasting text with mouse'
• Fixed bug: 'Verify button disabled pasting text in lower case'

Won't run for me. I had the Dll error.. downloaded the correct files the chief gave us. I can get past that error, now it just says " run time error 70. Permission denied" Any ideas?
