Holy crap, I spent the entire evening getting this going, used technodon's guide, it worked perfectly for me, except I had to make some modifications to his last instruction for it to worked (he left out something, or assumed that people would know... "insmod metldrpwn.ko")

I got my dump, ran it through CEX2DEX, did all that shiz, and it completed with no errors, does this mean I can go ahead and flash the dexflash.bin? I checked/compared it in HxD with the original dump, and they are identical except the EID sections that are supposed to be different (I hope)

Crossing fingers, I guess. I'll flash it tomorrow. And that is ONE HELL OF A LOT OF WORK to pwn metldr

so people have confirmed that games work from USB with bdemu, but has anyone tested making an ISO and burning it onto a BDR with ps3gen? then proceeding with patching the game as is done with the usb bdemu?

or do i sacrifice a BDR for testing purposes? haha

If you do try I would suggest you first make a game run from bdemu hdd.

Once you make it work, do the same exact steps in ps3gen only burn it to a blu-ray this time.

Games won't boot from bdemu or BDR unless you fself all executables or install a retail update.

i know i have to install the retail update, what im saying is if i installed the retail update, but burnt it to a BDR instead of putting it on USB, has anyone tried it to confirm it works? if not, i will sacrifice a BDR to find out

I understand what you are saying.

What I am saying is ps3gen can be tricky to use. It is possible to build a corrupted image with it.

So if you first make the game run from bd emu then you can eliminate the possibility that you might burn a corrupted image to the BDR.

ah ok, well yeah will get the hang of it on the usb first then give it a test on the BDR, soneone over at ps3iso said he managed to do it, and then disappeared so other then that, looks like no confirmation...hopefully ill be back with good news for everyone in a few hours

@GraVoX959 : looking forward to your 10-15 minute solution.

I have no flasher, so I'm waiting this out for a perfected and simple method.

I'm in the same boat. I have a phat(nand) and I don't have a flasher. Plus, I don't understand have of the instructions on the tutorial. I'll sit this one out and wait.
