32w ago - Following up on the previous PS3 IDPS update, today PlayStation 3 homebrew developer Rnd (aka RndRandomizer) has released a Request IDPS Generator version 1.0.0.0 with details below.

Download: PS3 Request IDPS Generator v1.0.0.0

From the ReadMe file: REQUEST IDPS Generator - v1.0.0.0 - Rnd

v1.0.0.0:

• Initial Release
  

Features:

• Generate a request_idps file
  
• Get PerConsole Data (board ID, cid, ecid, kiban ID, ckp2_data, ckp_management_id)
  

Usage:

Just get your NAND/NOR dump and drop it in this application.

No more need for re-flashing the whole dump in order to convert EID.

Simply it makes it easier to use it with ObjectiveSuites-SetIdps and you dont have to gether it from Sony's server.

Put request_idps.txt in Temp folder in ObjectiveSuites, to set your request_idps and you are done with flashing the new EID.

I'm not responsible for ANY DAMAGE it may cause! USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!

P.S. If somebody has a script to get the EID with ObjectiveSuites, I would be very...

83w ago - Following up on his initial release, today PlayStation 3 developer ThatOtherDev has updated his PS3 homebrew game Maze Generator to version 1.2.

To quote: This is an update/remake of Maze Generator for PS3. For anyone that doesn’t know Maze Generator was actually the first thing I ever made for PS3. It was originally made with the leaked SDK but has been redone using PSL1GHT and will now work on CFW.

It now also has a lot more in common with it’s Wii version and features a title screen, textured background, multiple maze sizes and the option to watch the maze being randomly generated. It also keeps track of how many times you have finished mazes.

Just use the left analog stick to navigate the maze.

140w ago - Update: PS3 Timestamp Generator v1.1 is now available, which fixes a bug which valid numbers don't generate properly.

Over the weekend a guide was posted on how to Platinum any PS3 game instantly, and today I'm releasing my PS3 Timestamp Generator tool that allows you to generate timestamps for all of your hacked PlayStation 3 Trophies making you look more legit ever than before.

Download: PS3 Timestamp Generator v1

Note - I haven't tested this on a different platform yet. This was compiled with VS2010 (C#) and .NET Framework 3.5. So, please report me any bug you may have encountered.

Make sure you put correct numbers into the six text boxes, e.g.

2009 20 02 02 49 35

Don't put one digits, illegal numbers or non-numeric characters,
otherwise the program won't generate for you.

Once generated, copy the hex, open your TROPUSR.DAT with a hex editor and paste the hex underneath the line where it says a trophy ID. E.g:

0x21e0: 00 00...

162w ago - A few months back we reported on how to take action against PSN abusers, and today IronstarMovement.com (linked above) spotlighted the recent influx of PlayStation Network code generator Web sites that are misusing legitimate customer data.

Notoriously surfacing on both PlayStation 3 sites including the GeoHot blog and via chain letters recently, these PSN code generator sites attempt to obtain a legitimate user's PSN credentials resulting in fraudulent credit card charges for unauthorized content purchases.

If you use PSN, here are some safety tips courtesy of IronstarMovement.com, to quote:

"• Delete your credit card information off of your PlayStation Network account using the official PlayStation Web site.
• Change your email and password for your PlayStation Network account using the official PlayStation Network Web site.
• Contact Sony PlayStation customer service 1-800-345-7669, also contact your credit or debit card customer service representative.
