Any way to edit encrypted PS2 .VME classics save?

[depaul]

Hello. I know that PS2 classics save format differs from the simple PS2ISO's you load using multiman. The former is encrypted whereas the latter is a simple PS2 memory card dump that can be edited using mymc.

Sadly on PS3Hen (Super slim) PS2 ISOs aren't supported like on CFW, you have to convert them into PS2 classics PKG format and then install them. Thus, you only can have the encypted .VME save format.



I tried to browse the following directory : /dev_hdd0/home/user_id/ps2emu2_savedata/game_id, it seems PS3 automatically creates two memory cards files :
SCEVMC0.VME and
SCEVMC1.VME

I want to edit those save and import saves from gamefaqs. But mymc doesn't recognize the .VME format because it's encypted : "Not a PS2 memory card image"

Anyone please tried that before? Thanks.

You can decrypt the memory cards with the PS2 classics tool

if you don't like command line tools, there's a GUI too

It was cracked few years ago. You can use PS2 Classics GUI but also ps2classics (python scripts wrapped to exe, drag 'n drop support so it is easy).

@bucanero As You can see, peoples still struggle on this Sony junk so it is worth to add it to Apollo (decrypt/encrypt or i.e also export to *.VM2 so user can easily export/import to/from *.PSV). ^^

yes I didn't forget about it, I just got a bit side-tracked with all those libraries lately (unrar, 7z, smb2, etc)
but now that I completed that, I want to return to the ps2classics stuff we were talking about for Apollo
I'll try to dig the ps2classic sources I've got from kozarovv some time ago

Thank you very much Sirs it worked!

So we have to do:
Download VME save from PS3 => decrypt it to .VMC using PS2 Classics => rename save to .PS2 => edit it with mymc => rename it again to .VMC => encrypt it to .VME using PS2 Classics => upload it to PS3.

You can download .VME file only once and include all your desired games and upload it to every PS2 classics save folder.
