First of all, I would like to thank @Fin9ersMcGee for the God's work he has done on the original thread. The man took the time to read all the other tutorials to compile them in a single one !
Now let's get to the topic
As you may know or not, the PS3 HAN Exploit was updated to support the 4.84 HFW, which means that there is an additionnal step to the process (since the guide wasn't updated since 2018). So here, we, go !
Step 0 - Installing the HFW
Part 1 - PS3Xploit Installation
In this part we will be installing the exploit and creating the necessary files we will need later on for creating content for our PS3s.
DEBUG PKGs is for exactly that, DEBUGGING. Unless your a DEV or know what your doing, don't enable Debug PKGs
Repeated Disclaimer
I will not be held responsible if your PSN account is banned! You have been warned.
USE YOUR HAN USER ACCOUNT WHEN EXECUTING HAN INSTALLER, DUMPING/COPYING ACT and IDPS, INSTALLING/COPYING RIFS.
THERE ARE NO GUARANTEES! DON'T RISK YOUR MAIN PSN ACCOUNT.
So, that concludes Part 1 of the guide.
We have learned how to install and enable the HAN exploit. And installed the bonus PKG, HAN Toolbox.
Now we need to create some important files....
Part 2 - Dump ACT.DAT and IDPS.HEX
In this part we will be dumping our act.dat and idps.hex files needed to resign our PKGs.
REMEMBER! WHEN DUMPING LICENCE, MAKE SURE YOUR LOGGED INTO YOUR SECONDARY USER ACCOUNT
Make sure your have a USB disk inserted into the rightmost usb port on PS3
Boot console
Navigate to www.**ps3xploit.com >Domain no Longer owned by team** (ps3xploit.me =new) Navigate the menu and select "ACT/IDPS Dumper".
Select "Initialise ACT/IDPS Dumper and wait for the green letters.
If failed, repeat. If successful, select "DUMP ACT.DAT and IDPS"
Your Licence has now been dumped to USB
PART 3 - HAN Toolbox
Originally when writing this guide, HAN Toolbox was just a optional extra. But i feel like it now deserves its own part in the guide as it is a great addition to the HAN exploit.
[tabs][/tabs]
Part 4 - Converting and Installing Backups
PS1, PS2, PSP and Minis
In this part we will be converting our backups into the relevant PKG format and resigning with our consoles act.dat and idps.hex files.
Something to Note:
Due to PS3s FAT32 USB limitation, any game larger than 4GB cant be copied onto a FAT32 USB drive. Currently there is no way of splitting them for install (maybe in the future).
Use LAN to transfer large files. GO TO PART 4

CONGRATULATIONS!! You just installed your first game onto your PS3! Well done
You can now delete your PKG file inside the "Playstation Network Content" XMB menu.
Wow... That was a long and painful process... Right?? Don't worry, further conversions should be a little easier.

Part 5 - All Things PS3! An Introduction Into PS3 Titles
Moving onto a more juicier part of the guide... PS3 titles.
This Part is broken down into 3 subs:
Part 4.A - We will cover PS3 games that originated form a BluRay disk
Part 4.B - We will cover PS3 games originating from PSN Store
Part 4.C - We will cover PS3 c00 games
Part 5.A - BluRay Games
For BluRay backups to work there must be an update available for your game. If your game never received an update, You may be able to still install your game IF it was re-released in the PSN Store (Go to Part 4.B)
You can check if there is an available update by opening ps3tools and starting "PS3 Updates".
Type your game into the search field and the tool will tell you if one is available.
[tabs][/tabs][tabs][/tabs][tabs]
[tab=Prerequisites][/tab]
[/tabs]
Part 5.B - PSN Games
This part of the guide will outline games that originated from PSN Store.
This includes BluRay titles that have been re-released onto PSN Store!! Great news if an update isnt available for your BluRay disk game!!
Now, this part of the guide is going to be vague as I do not want to run the risk of getting banned or this invaluable piece of text to be removed.
DON'T FORGET TO USE YOUR SECONDARY USER/PSN ACCOUNT FOR THIS. WE WILL BE SIGNING INTO PSN AND ACCESSING THE PSN STORE

Part 6 - Using a Network to Transfer PKGs larger than 4GB
A problem with the FAT32 file system is its 4GB file size limitation.
Not a problem with most PS1, PSP and a few PS2 games. But a vast majority of PS3 titles are much larger than 4GB.
That's where PKG Linker comes in handy.
A quick FYI, I use a VPN. And when I set about trying to make this work, it would fail to connect EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. I was pulling my hair out over what it could be. I stumbled upon a configuration file and realised that the PKG Linker and server were trying to connect to my VPN "ethernet adapter".... I disabled my VPN and restarted from the beginning and it worked great!!
So, if your like me and you use a VPN, disable it for the rest of the transfer process.

Part 7 - Homebrew Applications and Emulators
UNDER CONSTRUCTION
In this section we will cover Homebrew applications and emulators.
Unfortunately, Ps3Xploit HAN DOES NOT natively support homebrew.
But there is a silver lining...
When the Ps3Xploit v3 preview/demo was shown a few weeks back, users @DeViL303 and @Joonie showcased the homebrew emulator SNES Station successfully running as a Ps2 Classics backup.
The basic idea is that you take your homebrew and roms and repack them into an ISO image then continue as if it was a Ps2 ISO used for converting into a PS2 Classic. Wanna know more about that thing ? Check this thread : Emulators compatible with HAN

Part 8 - PS3 Game Mods
Unfortunately, as I've started work recently and have alot of studio time coming up with my band, I really don't have the time to explain this one.
Also, I have a PC if I want to mod games,
Buuuuuuuuut,
A very talented user by the name of @clayson has put together a nice guide to help everyone out.
You can go check the thread out HERE
Part 9 - XMB mods
So, using various HAN tools, we can change quite a bit when it comes to customisation.
WARNING! These XMB mods have the potential to soft brick your console. This means you will need to reinstall OFW through recovery to revive your console. Also, as I'm writing this, the tools haven't been updated, and thus, their compatibility with HFW 4.84.2 is yet to be known. Be careful if you use HFW , I will not be responsible of your brick!
[tabs][/tabs]
Part X - Install PKGs to USB Hard Drive?!???!! - Maybe Yes, Maybe No. Keep checking back for updates...
So... You spotted this section that says you might be able to play your backups from a USB Hard Drive...
Here's the low down...
I've been speaking to some people, who tell me that there's a possibility of this happening. Here's the key word though, "possibility".
I'm not saying that it's available. I'm not saying that it's being worked on. I'm not saying that it even exists. I'm saying that there may be a possibility later on.
DO NOT ASK ME ABOUT USB HDD SUPPORT. THIS WILL BE ADDED AS SOON AS I KNOW THE DETAILS!!
Update from 2019 : still no news but hey, who knows ?
Conclusion/Outro
Aaaaand, we're done here. It was a path full of copypasta of the original thread, but the modifications I've brought in will be very useful to the end-user. Don't hesitate to tell me what I should or shouldn't add, I'll listen to you !
Credits
Huge thanks to W, esc0rtd3w, bguerville and Habib for the HFW, Devil303 for the PKG Linker and Fin9ersMcGee for the original tutorial.
PS: If I don't answer to this guide, sorry y'all but I'm pretty busy with my studies as of now. Don't worry, I'm sure you'll find all the answers to your questions on this forum, with or without my help !
Now let's get to the topic
As you may know or not, the PS3 HAN Exploit was updated to support the 4.84 HFW, which means that there is an additionnal step to the process (since the guide wasn't updated since 2018). So here, we, go !

Repeated Disclaimer
I will not be held responsible if your PSN account is banned! You have been warned.
USE YOUR HAN USER ACCOUNT WHEN EXECUTING HAN INSTALLER, DUMPING/COPYING ACT and IDPS, INSTALLING/COPYING RIFS.
THERE ARE NO GUARANTEES! DON'T RISK YOUR MAIN PSN ACCOUNT.
So, that concludes Part 1 of the guide.
We have learned how to install and enable the HAN exploit. And installed the bonus PKG, HAN Toolbox.
Now we need to create some important files....
Part 2 - Dump ACT.DAT and IDPS.HEX
In this part we will be dumping our act.dat and idps.hex files needed to resign our PKGs.
REMEMBER! WHEN DUMPING LICENCE, MAKE SURE YOUR LOGGED INTO YOUR SECONDARY USER ACCOUNT
Make sure your have a USB disk inserted into the rightmost usb port on PS3
Boot console
Navigate to www.**ps3xploit.com >Domain no Longer owned by team** (ps3xploit.me =new) Navigate the menu and select "ACT/IDPS Dumper".
Select "Initialise ACT/IDPS Dumper and wait for the green letters.
If failed, repeat. If successful, select "DUMP ACT.DAT and IDPS"
Your Licence has now been dumped to USB
PART 3 - HAN Toolbox
Originally when writing this guide, HAN Toolbox was just a optional extra. But i feel like it now deserves its own part in the guide as it is a great addition to the HAN exploit.
[tabs][/tabs]
-
So, we are going to need to download the toolbox pkg and install it onto our consoles.
You can download v0.7 from HERE, copy the PKG to USB drive and insert into the rightmost USB. -
For the Demo Downloader feature to work correctly, a couple more steps are needed:
- Boot Console
- ENABLE HAN
- Navigate the XMB to HAN Toolbox/Toolbox Settings/Setup Update Demo List.
- Select "Step 1", and tap X and select YES.
- Let download and installation finish
- Navigate the XMB to
- Toolbox/Toolbox Settings/Setup Update Demo List.
- Select "Step 2"
- Slect the drop down menu "Select Source RCO File"
- Scroll down the list and select "explore_plugin_full.rco"
- Select the dropdown menu "Root Path"
- Select "/dev/game/HANTOOLBX/USRDIR/files/"
- Select "Initialize Flash RCO Replacer"
- What for the green letters "...initialized successfully"
- Select "Copy RCO File To Flash"
- Allow console to fully reboot.
-
So, now that HAN toolbox is installed we can do a lot of extra stuff.
HAN Toolbox can now be used in place of the web browser. There are shortcuts to all the tools that HAN brings. Enabler, Copier, Dumper. As well as Soft Reboot, Hard Reboot and Shutdown.
The Demo Downloader is a handy feature for... yes, you guessed it. Downloading demos. This bypasses the need to access the PSN Store.
You can install all your content over a network from your PC. HAN Toolbox has some extra features when used with PKG Linker (More info in Part 6)
A File Explorer which can be used to browse the complete file system. Be warned. Don't delete something that you don't understand. You could brick.
Part 4 - Converting and Installing Backups
PS1, PS2, PSP and Minis
In this part we will be converting our backups into the relevant PKG format and resigning with our consoles act.dat and idps.hex files.
Something to Note:
Due to PS3s FAT32 USB limitation, any game larger than 4GB cant be copied onto a FAT32 USB drive. Currently there is no way of splitting them for install (maybe in the future).
Use LAN to transfer large files. GO TO PART 4
[tabs][/tabs][tabs][/tabs][tabs]
[tab=Prerequisites][/tab]

-
Prerequisites
- Your ACT.DAT and IDPS.HEX files dumped in previous Part.
We are also going to need some tools:
- PS3Tools by Aldotools - An AIO suit of tools. Please google this for download.
- PKG Resigned by Habib - A resigning tool to create signed PKGs. Download HERE
- PSX Classics Tools - A few tools for converting PSX games. Download HERE
- TrueAncestorRepacker - A repacker to pack your PSX content into PKGs. Download HERE
- "Fix EBOOT.PBP" - For easier PSX Conversion. Download HERE
-
Tools to Install
I like to create a working folder on the root of one of my hard drives named "WORK" so it is easier to navigate the tools during the conversion process.
Some tools will give errors if filenames contain spaces. So if you try to create a game from:
"C:/WORK/Playstation 1/PSX Game 1.ISO"
It will fail because A. There is a space between "Playstation 1" and B. There are a few spaces in "PSX Game 1.ISO"
The correct file path would be:
"C:/WORK/Playstation1/PSXGame1.ISO"
- Extract PKG Resigner to WORK folder
- Copy your ACT.DAT and IDPS.HEX to "\WORK\PS3xploit-resigner-master\rifgen-master" folder
- Extract PSX Classics Tools to WORK folder.
- Create new folder "TrueAncestor" in WORK and unzip TrueAncestorRepacker into this folder
- PS3Tools.exe may trigger your antivirus. If this happens, make an exception in your antivirus software or disable your antivirus while using the tools.
- Install PS3Tools to your WORK folder.
- You may have some trouble opening "PS3Tools_Menu.exe". A message may appear saying "MSVBVM50.DLL" was not found. If you get this message, download and install THIS to fix this error.
Thus concludes tool setup!
And know for the good stuff....
Part 4.A - PS1
[tabs][/tabs][tabs][/tabs][tabs]
[tab=Prerequisites][/tab]

Prerequisites
For PSX conversion you will need a few images for the 'look and feel' of your game within the XMB menu. There are 3 images in total but i only use 2.
ICON0.PNG - This is the icon of the game when highlighted in XMB
PIC1.PNG - This is the background image when highlighted in XMB
PIC0.PNG - This is the information box located in the bottom right of the screen when highlighted in XMB
You can download a set of blank templates from HERE.
Edit as you wish. I usually use Photoshop or GIMP2 to import the game cover art onto the ICON0 template and export. I then search google images for a relevant image for the background, usually of ingame play.
Any PNG can be used but filename must match the ones above and ICON must be 320x176 and background image 1920x1080.

So far I've tested Gitarooman Lives, GTA: Liberty City Stories and MGS: Portable Ops+
The first 2 boot to black screen and MGS boots to menu. I can navigate menu but get a black screen when starting the game
Report back if you have gotten any games to work.
UPDATE: HERE is a small compatibility list.
Tested more games and report you findings to the thread
Moving onto an equally similar section...

Part 5 - All Things PS3! An Introduction Into PS3 Titles
Moving onto a more juicier part of the guide... PS3 titles.
This Part is broken down into 3 subs:
Part 4.A - We will cover PS3 games that originated form a BluRay disk
Part 4.B - We will cover PS3 games originating from PSN Store
Part 4.C - We will cover PS3 c00 games
Part 5.A - BluRay Games
For BluRay backups to work there must be an update available for your game. If your game never received an update, You may be able to still install your game IF it was re-released in the PSN Store (Go to Part 4.B)
You can check if there is an available update by opening ps3tools and starting "PS3 Updates".
Type your game into the search field and the tool will tell you if one is available.

Prerequisites
Check your bluray game compatibility HERE there may be an exclusive method to make. Your game work.
You will need a couple of tools for this one.
- CFW2OFW Helper - A handy tool that will take you game data, download the relevant update and create 2 folders for the next tool... Download HERE
- Make Backup PKG - This tool will take these 2 folders and create a game PKG and an Update PKG. Download HERE
Following the norms of my guide, create folders if needed in our WORK folder for these tools and and extract them.
-
Extracting Data from PS3 ISO
- If your game is in ISO format, use a virtual disk utility to mount the ISO.
- Whatever utility you use, we want to extract the contents into and empty folder.
- Take note of where you saved the contents.
- MOVE ONTO SECTION B
-
Downloading Update and Converting to PKG
-
- Copy/Move the contents of your ISO to "\WORK\CFW2OFW Helper" folder
- Run "CFW2OFW Helper.exe"
- CFW2OFW Helper will start to download the relevant update for your game.
- It will create a folder with your Games title
- Inside this folder are another 2 folders. "NPUB..." and "BLUS..." these may be different if your game region is different to my example.
- Copy/Move these 2 folders into "\WORK\make-backup-pkg" folder.
- Run "do.bat"
- Leave the command window to do its thing.
- When complete, you will have 3 PKGs that start with "000000-NPUB...." (filenames may vary)
- Copy these 3 PKGs to "\WORK\PS3xploit-resigner-master\rifgen-master" folder
- Sign each one by dragging each one onto "ps3xploit_rifgen_edatresign.exe"
- Copy the resulting signed PKGs to USB root
- MOVE ONTO SECTION C
-
-
Installing onto PS3
-
- Insert USB into rightmost port of PS3
- Boot console
- ENABLE HAN
- Navigate package manager and install all PKGs
- Once installed, PKGs can be deleted off USB.
-
-
DLC
There are 2 types of DLC, one will just need resigning. The other will need its RAP/RIF counterpart.
-
- Acquire your DLC, it must match the same region as your main game PKG we installed earlier. (NO PIRACY DISCUSSION)
- If your DLC needs a RAP, aquire RAP
- Copy your DLC pkg into "\WORK\PS3xploit-resigner-master\rifgen-master" folder
- If RAP required, Copy/Move PKG into "\WORK\PS3xploit-resigner-master\rifgen-master"
- Drag your pkg onto "ps3xploit_rifgen_edatresign.exe"
- If rap required, start "resign_all.bat.bat" to obtain Rif PKG.
- Copy resulting signed pkg(s) onto USB
- REPEAT SECTION C
-
Part 5.B - PSN Games
This part of the guide will outline games that originated from PSN Store.
This includes BluRay titles that have been re-released onto PSN Store!! Great news if an update isnt available for your BluRay disk game!!
Now, this part of the guide is going to be vague as I do not want to run the risk of getting banned or this invaluable piece of text to be removed.
- Acquire your Game PKG. (DO NOT DISCUSS PIRACY)
- Acquire your Game RAP. (DO NOT DISCUSS PIRACY)
- Please note that game PKG and RAP are matching pair.
- Copy/Move PKG into "\WORK\PS3xploit-resigner-master\rifgen-master"
- Copy/Move RAP into "\WORK\PS3xploit-resigner-master\rifgen-master\raps"
- Run "resign_all.bat"
- Drag Game PKG onto "ps3xploit_rifgen_edatresign.exe"
- Copy/Move your signed Game PKG and RIF000 PKG to USB root
- Boot PS3
- MAKE SURE YOU ARE ON YOUR SECONDARY USER ACCOUNT
- Enable HAN
- Install Game PKG and RIF000 PKG
- And that concludes this part about PSN Titles.
DON'T FORGET TO USE YOUR SECONDARY USER/PSN ACCOUNT FOR THIS. WE WILL BE SIGNING INTO PSN AND ACCESSING THE PSN STORE

Part 6 - Using a Network to Transfer PKGs larger than 4GB
A problem with the FAT32 file system is its 4GB file size limitation.
Not a problem with most PS1, PSP and a few PS2 games. But a vast majority of PS3 titles are much larger than 4GB.
That's where PKG Linker comes in handy.
A quick FYI, I use a VPN. And when I set about trying to make this work, it would fail to connect EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. I was pulling my hair out over what it could be. I stumbled upon a configuration file and realised that the PKG Linker and server were trying to connect to my VPN "ethernet adapter".... I disabled my VPN and restarted from the beginning and it worked great!!
So, if your like me and you use a VPN, disable it for the rest of the transfer process.
[tabs][/tabs][tabs][/tabs][tabs]
[tab=Prerequisites][/tab]
[/tabs]
-
Prerequisites
You will need to have your PS3 connected to the same network as your PC. A LAN connection to your router will be the best option.
You will also need this tool:
- PKG Linker - Used to host a network to transfer you PKGs. Download HERE
Create a new folder in our WORK folder and Copy/Move "PKG Linker.exe" into this folder.
Copy all your completed, RESIGNED PKGs into this folder also
-
Creating Package List PKG and Starting the Server
-
- Start "PKG Linker.exe"
- Click "Yes" to export package list
- Click "OK"
- Click "Yes" to using built in server.
- Click "OK"
- Now follow the Apache install process leaving all settings default.
- Leave "Run server now?" box unchecked
- Click "Yes" to signing PKG
- Let command do its thing and hit Enter twice to exit.
- Click "OK"
- Server will now start in a Command Window (Leave this open while you transfer PKGs)
- Click "OK" in server confirmation window (Separate window from command window)
- Navigate to "\WORK\PKGLinker\" folder and copy "Package_List.pkg" to root of USB
- Insert USB into rightmost USB
- MOVE ONTO SECTION B
If apache doesn't boot, go to section A2
-
You will need two tools :
PKG Link Maker : Download HERE
PKG Linker : https://www.psx-place.com/resources/pkg-linker-2-0-serve-packages-to-your-ps3-han-cfw.640/
And Han Toolbox if you don't already own it
Follow these steps :
- Extract PKG Link Maker to a folder
- Put your PKG Linker.exe and your PKG files in this folder
- Install the PKG Linker
- Generate Package List.pkg with it
- Install it on PS3
- Close the PKG Linker server and run package_link_maker.py instead (This will open a HFS server)
- Download the package you want from PS3, no crashes !
-
Installing Package List
- Boot PS3
- ENABLE HAN!
- Navigate Package Manager on XMB and install "Package_List.pkg"
- Navigate HAN Toolbox and select "Soft Reboot"
- You will have a new entry in the XMB under HAN Toolbox.
- Select "Install from Webserver"
- Select each of your PKGs to install over the network.
- IF YOUR GET ERROR CODE 80710092, MOVE ONTO TROUBLESHOOTING
- If you need to add more games MOVE ONTO SECTION C
-
Transferring PKGs Later On
- Copy your new PKGs into the "\WORK\PKGLinker\" folder
- Start "PKG Linker.exe" to start server.
- On PS3, navigate to "Game/HAN Toolbox/Install Packages form Webserver"
- Select "Resfresh Package List"
- Your PS3 will download the new package list and install automatically
- Navigate HAN Toolbox and select "Soft Reboot"
- Your new PKG files will now show in the webserver menu.
- IF YOUR GET ERROR CODE 80710092, MOVE ONTO TROUBLESHOOTING
-
If your receive error 80710092 then you are having connection issues. This could be one of many variables. This is not HAN related. This is your network/router/wifi/pc settings.
Please read this post by @DeViL303
[tab=Troubleshooting][/tab]80710092 is a common error and can be anything that stops you connecting so its a hard error to trace. -
- Windows firewall
- Other firewall or AntiVirus
- Cable problem
- Port blocked on server
- Port conflict on server
- Missing dll on system
- Package_list not updated by usb since server settings changed
- Port changed in pkg linker but not changed in server settings
- Port changed in server settings and not changed in pkg linker
- PS3 not rebooted since new package list loaded on
- Disable firewalls, inc windows firewall, defender etc
- Make sure the pkg linker app says your PC IP, it may have picked up wrong IP and need to be typed in manually.
- See if you can access server via ps3 web browser
- update package list via usb everytime you change settings until it works (always reboot ps3 to see changes on XMB)
- Try change ports (in app and server)
- Try run other servers (xampp, miniweb, hfs, node.js)
- Read the entire pkg linker thread and try other peoples solutions
- Google how to set up a web server and try learn about it.
Part 7 - Homebrew Applications and Emulators
UNDER CONSTRUCTION
In this section we will cover Homebrew applications and emulators.
Unfortunately, Ps3Xploit HAN DOES NOT natively support homebrew.
But there is a silver lining...
When the Ps3Xploit v3 preview/demo was shown a few weeks back, users @DeViL303 and @Joonie showcased the homebrew emulator SNES Station successfully running as a Ps2 Classics backup.
The basic idea is that you take your homebrew and roms and repack them into an ISO image then continue as if it was a Ps2 ISO used for converting into a PS2 Classic. Wanna know more about that thing ? Check this thread : Emulators compatible with HAN
[tabs][/tabs][tabs]

Part 8 - PS3 Game Mods
Unfortunately, as I've started work recently and have alot of studio time coming up with my band, I really don't have the time to explain this one.
Also, I have a PC if I want to mod games,
Buuuuuuuuut,
A very talented user by the name of @clayson has put together a nice guide to help everyone out.
You can go check the thread out HERE
Part 9 - XMB mods
So, using various HAN tools, we can change quite a bit when it comes to customisation.
WARNING! These XMB mods have the potential to soft brick your console. This means you will need to reinstall OFW through recovery to revive your console. Also, as I'm writing this, the tools haven't been updated, and thus, their compatibility with HFW 4.84.2 is yet to be known. Be careful if you use HFW , I will not be responsible of your brick!

Part X - Install PKGs to USB Hard Drive?!???!! - Maybe Yes, Maybe No. Keep checking back for updates...
So... You spotted this section that says you might be able to play your backups from a USB Hard Drive...
Here's the low down...
I've been speaking to some people, who tell me that there's a possibility of this happening. Here's the key word though, "possibility".
I'm not saying that it's available. I'm not saying that it's being worked on. I'm not saying that it even exists. I'm saying that there may be a possibility later on.
DO NOT ASK ME ABOUT USB HDD SUPPORT. THIS WILL BE ADDED AS SOON AS I KNOW THE DETAILS!!
Update from 2019 : still no news but hey, who knows ?
Conclusion/Outro
Aaaaand, we're done here. It was a path full of copypasta of the original thread, but the modifications I've brought in will be very useful to the end-user. Don't hesitate to tell me what I should or shouldn't add, I'll listen to you !
Credits
Huge thanks to W, esc0rtd3w, bguerville and Habib for the HFW, Devil303 for the PKG Linker and Fin9ersMcGee for the original tutorial.
PS: If I don't answer to this guide, sorry y'all but I'm pretty busy with my studies as of now. Don't worry, I'm sure you'll find all the answers to your questions on this forum, with or without my help !
