About lastGAME Customizer:
​

This tool takes advantage of the customization options that multiMAN's lastGAME applet offers, allowing to create PKG files that mount PS3 Games, PS1 games and AVCHD movies directly from the XMB, without having to launch multiMAN's GUI (btw lastGAME = multiMAN without GUI).This app supports multiMAN's lastGAME and now also IRISMAN's LastPLAY

Features:

• Current version supports the newest LastPlay 1.03 and lastGAME 11.0:
  12.0: loads the multiMAN's payload on 3.55, 4.21, 4.30, 4.31, 4.40, 4.41, 4.46, 4.50, 4.53, 4.55, 4.60 and 4.65/4.66
  12.0 COBRA: for COBRA 7.0 CFW implemented on 4.46 Rogero, 4.46 Habib, 4.46 Cobra, 4.53 Habib, 4.55 Habib, 4.65/4.66 Cobra/Rebug Cobra
  4.1: loads Hermes payload for firmwares 3.41, 3.55, 4.21, 4.30 (multiMAN is not required)
  
• Allows to connect to PS3 via FTP to retrieve the list of games installed on HDD or on external devices
  
• Supports drag & drop of multiple folders (x:\GAMES) to create multiple PKGs instantly
• Supports command line interface (CLI). Use /? for info.
  
• Allows to mount ISOs (PS2, PSP, PSX, DVD, BDM) and load remote backups (Cobra dongle is required)
  
• Support direct boot (certain games only). Games that require BD mirror are now supported in lastGAME8 and above.

multiMAN 04.66.10 or higher is required for PSX isos using lastGAME

Changes in 1.5.1: Added lastGAME 12.0.

Note: For BD-mirror feature with lastGAME, multiMAN 04.66.xx must be installed. BD-mirror setting is stored in the PS3GAME.INI created for each game by multiMAN or by Game Settings Manager

​

ABOUT: PS3 GET CFW Symbols
This tool is for DEVELOPERS only!! It helps to find the memory offsets of the CFW functions (aka symbols). Although the tool cannot find all the symbols, it's able to find up to 90% of them, leaving more time to the developer to focus on other more productive tasks.

This tool helped me (aldostools) and Joonie to port the mamba payload to 3.55, 4.21, 4.30, 4.31, 4.40, 4.41, 4.50, etc.. This means that now you can play ISOs also on these versions of CFW using IRISMAN and even on other Iris forks.

Changelogs

• NEW v1.5.6: Improved selection of text when copying from the hex viewer. Now can use F3 to jump to the selected address.
• v1.5.3: Fixed a bug parsing "patch_func2_offset".
• v1.5.2: Added Ctrl+G to go to an specific address in Interactive mode.
• v1.5: Fixed a stupid bug finding the syscall_table_offset for DEX. Added shortcut to the calculator, and new commands to find syscalls.
• v1.4.3: Added find syscall_table_offset. In the Interactive mode enter 'S' for syscall_table_offset or 'T' for TOC.
• v1.4.1: Added option to scroll up/down the offsets in interactive mode. The default template contains the symbols for cobra (instead of just mamba).
• v1.4: Now can find the RTOC offsets thanks to a new method provided to me by Joonie. THANKS to him!!!
• v1.3: Added a new interactive mode to search an entered symbol and display the found symbol and values in hex viewer format.

​

hi aldostools thanks for your awesome tools really appreciate it, i have a problem when encrypting a ps2 game titled ms saga using ps2 classic 2.01 tool, the problem is always like this.. " Error: invalid number of arguments for encryption "..

The syntax for ps2 classic is:
ps2classic d [cex/dex] [klicensee] [encrypted image] [out data] [out meta]

ps2classic e [cex/dex] [klicensee] [iso] [out data] [real out name] [CID]

Also avoid using spaces in the file names or folder names in the paths.

Try using PS2Classics_GUI.exe.... besides it's labeled as a "GUI", it actually does some pre-processing needed by ps2classic tool.

Try creating the pkg with the python scripts found in the folder "make_pkgs" of the ps3tools. It needs python installed.
Unlike psn_package_npdrm, the scripts have very few validations. Also you can try add the undocumented parameter -n in psn_package_npdrm to ignore some validations.

Thanks for your help [MENTION=89]aldostools[/MENTION]

I have install 3.5.1 python and watch for the first time in "make_pkgs"
I placed "NPEB00703" folder in make_pkgs\pkg
I edited "CREATE_PKG.bat" with correct path for python
=> set PYTHON=C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35
=> set CONTENTID=EP4451-NPEB00703_00-PL000000FULL0100

I try to run "CREATE_PKG.bat" but I got error message:

File ".\bin\pkg.py", line 117
except Exception, e:
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

[MENTION=89]aldostools[/MENTION] has an app to check pkg integrity. though, it's possible to get around it, it's very unlikely to happen. it uses the sha-1 of the pkg which r the bottom two lines in hex of the pkg. delete those two lines, and the sha-1 should equal the sha-1 of those two lines which is how it works. that's how u can check pkg integrity/corruption.

I don't know about sha-1 honesly. I try to delete the 2 last lines in hex save and install but doesn't work

[MENTION=89]aldostools[/MENTION]
Opening the package with pkg ContentID who ask me If I want update SHA-1 Is this the way to work ? doesn't seem all time damaged data after install

no, the last two lines r the sha-1. aldostools has an app that will check its (the package) integrity. if u delete the last two lines and generate the sha-1, it should be the same hex values as the last two lines of the pkg. u don't delete the last two lines and save or it'll be corrupted.

 

[MENTION=89]aldostools[/MENTION]
Is there a way to make the package install and working well pls ?
Do I have to update SHA-1 with pkg ContentID ?

psn_package_npdrm enforces to make proper pkg, but it rejects some files unless you create the pkg using -n

The python scripts do not have validations, so you may end creating a non-valid pkg. Also there are various batch files depending of the type of pkg.

I'd say that try using psn_package_npdrm with -n

 

[MENTION=89]aldostools[/MENTION]

I learn from the scatch about psn_package_npdrm (only use right click options till today)
I have create package.conf in /tools
Ran in CMD with psn_package_npdrm.exe -n package.conf PS3EXTNET

Package created
Install done in TV column
Do not start Give me error message "Le service est terminé" = "service completed"
I do the check, it give me

Do not expect them...

 

@aldostools I noticed that on Windows 10, the features in the menu are not implemented when you click on a self / sprx (SELF tools). On Windows 7 I have no problems. Is it a bug? For me, the shortcuts were really comfortable.

Something at your end.

It works fine on Windows 10.
It is a recurrent problem that also occurred on Windows 7. Search the ps3tools related threads on the forum this issue has been tackled many times...
Did you install as Administrator?
You can try using the registry files included with ps3tools as well.

 

I do not want to be wrong, but I think this problem has given me the latest Windows 10 (Creator Update)

However, I have installed it as an administrator.
I also tried using registry patches (Right_click_context_menu - CSO, PBP & PKG.bat), but nothing to do. It does not even associate selfs as a default program ...

 

I do not want to be wrong, but I think this problem has given me the latest Windows 10 (Creator Update)

I got the same update.

Please open regedit (write it in windows search) and check that you have this path there:

\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\BIN File\Shell\SELF Tools
