PS3 pkg_link_maker

[Kimjim]

The main purpose of this tool (package_link_maker.py) is to automate the creation of references to local packages for your method (creation package_link.xml). Your method is very cool. That's all.

It seems to be a complementary tool to the original Downloader. I guess it just creates the xml link to put in the drive, isn't it? It would be helpful if you created a thread and explained it rather than populate this thread.

well the thing is, I explained the problems with giving out an xml in first post, it is quite easy to mod your own, and first thing you do is give one out, and now here we are with problems. and filling up thread with talk bout adding 2 lines fo text to a file, it was meant to be a informative thread about this method.

As for your tool, I have no idea how to use it, instructions are not great. .I have not tried it as I can make no sense of it. but the thing is, anyone who can figure out that tool with your instructions, certainly does not need you to modify their category_game.xml, so im not sure of the market for that xml, I think it need to be made more noob friendly.

This is how this tool was first presented here, one line, no explanation, compare that to my first post.

Your tool might be great, but it cant just be dumped in the thread with no explanation if you want people to use it.

Inspired by your post I just created package_link_maker.py which create package_link.xml for usb. It is just an addition for your method.
I did it for myself.
The rest of the material on github on the conscience of others. Sorry for the offtopic please.

what did you do?

 

[bajul]

I just tried the tutorial pkg_link_maker from in1975 after all that there is even the game menu so missing sample savedata

 

[Alex_1985]

bajul, you copied category_game.xml with wrong size or from wrong usb port (need far right port).
You do it for nothing if you do not understand how it works. And it is offtopic.

 

[DeViL303]

please make a thread for your tool, there is just going to be loads of questions about that.

 

[Alex_1985]

DeVil303, I do not want anyone to use it thoughtlessly. Excuse me. This is my last message in this thread. I promise.

I don't mind you posting in this thread, but if this thread is just going to be about your tool and its problems and support, then maybe I should make another thread to talk about this XMB mod...

Moved pkg linker related posts to this new thread. Please keep thread on topic.

 

[Kimjim]

I think we need a video tutorial. Is it possible? Even an detailed explanation would do.

 

[DeViL303]

Yes, like what do I need to do to run a py file in the first place etc, double clicking it wont work on its own. What is the bat file for? do we run that? Its all too vague. I don't even know what hfs.exe is, is that a web server?

 

[bajul]

and now work perfect just test Grid autosport

You need to install python on your pc, put only 2 files package_link_maker.py and hfs.exe (web server) to pkgs dir.
Then you need to run package_link_maker.py by double clicking.
Then you need to copy package_link.xml to your usb-stick and put them in your PS3.
package_link.xml also use download.png on usb-stick (put your download.png on usb-stick and put usb-stick in far right slot on your PS3).

Ok, I see now, Nice one, that's lots better and will save lots of questions.

Why does the size of the xml need to be checked in the js though? as that xml wont change size cant you have the correct size already added to the js?
