For EBOOT.BIN to ELF you can use naehrwert's scetool or fail0verflow's unself.
Some NPDRM games may require a RAP or RIF+act.dat+idps to extract the ELF

Also my PS3 Tools Collection 2.0.55 allows to convert/resign the eboot using:
Shift+Enter on the EBOOT.BIN extracts the EBOOT.ELF
Ctrl+Enter on the EBOOT.ELF signs it as a SELF (EBOOT.BIN)
Or right-click and select "Sign ELF".

I am aware that your PS3 Tools Collection contains tools to decrypt/encrypt EBOOT.BIN.

I think it will be great if your could include only the selected tool with PS3 Cheats Editor. It be much easier and user friendly.

@gingerbread I don't have the intention to reinvent the wheel.

I don't see where is the difficulty on press Shift+Enter to extract the ELF, drag & drop it on the PS3 Cheats Editor, apply the patches, and right-click Sign ELF on the EBOOT.ELF

@aldostools

Great, just when I was taking the time to learn how to add / look for cheats through cmp you come up with the one click solution

Thanks again for your hard work

It is not difficult at all. Your PS3 tools collection is great. I believe it could be more streamlined. But It is just one man's opinion. Well, never-mind.

Newer versions of EBOOT may have different offsets. Thanks to BahumatLord @ PS3Repack for the tips/idea and bungholio @ CMP for the tutorial about converting CU codes.

please could you consider to add a feature that lets you convert raw codes automatically to ps3usercheats format? also a feature to get a eboot that has cheats already embedded into the eboot decrypt and auto convert to ps3usercheat format, that would be a godsend for older games that don't have cheat codes in ps3usercheat format or games that only have modified eboots and no ps3usercheats codes, it would help me out a lot and make thing easier for the community at least.

i also like the idea of merging the ps3usercheats app into multiman, that is a great idea.

Aldos, I'm on a Mac using Crossover/Wine, so I could not see that shift+Enter shortcut working with PS3_Tools Menu GUI. Unless I missunderstand the how to instructions to decrypt/resign an eboot.bin with PS3_Tools Menu??

Version 2.4.1 now includes naehrwert's scetool + MAGiC333X's bruteforceklicensee + klics.txt + appldr keys (all keys up to 4.31)

-it now allows to open EBOOT.BIN (it will auto-extract the ELF)
-it also allows to save the patched ELF as EBOOT.BIN

Report if you find any bug...



How to add the cheat codes to an EBOOT...
1. Download, install & run PS3 Cheats Editor 2.4.1
2. Select a game from the database
3. Select the cheats that you want to apply (use Ctrl+click to select multiple cheats)
4. Press Ctrl+E to select the EBOOT.BIN of the game to be patched (make sure that it is the same version)
5. Press Ctrl+P to apply the selected cheats
6. Press Ctrl+J to save the patched EBOOT.ELF as EBOOT.BIN
7. Copy the EBOOT.BIN to the USRDIR folder (if it is a retail eboot) or make a PKG if it is a PSN game or update EBOOT

Options for 4, 5 & 6 are available in the context menu found at the bottom-right of the window (hover the mouse over the Patch ELF button)
