WWW.PS3CHEATING.NET/FORUM

Hello,

This thread is to facilitate the reporting of cheats and update to the cheats database for Aldo's Bruteforce Save Data (BSD). Please provide the exact correct corresponding EU Game ID & Title for the US Games. If you have made custom GG codes or BSD codes, please send the files to me (zipped). Our goal is to support users/games from all region in one application.

Standardisation

When you report a cheat please make sure they are in [CODE] tags.
1. Please do not copy/paste from sources without formatting.
2. Please make sure the codes follow the format. See FAQ.
3. Please make sure that the code titles are properly formated.
4. Please give proper credits where the codes originated from or who has authored them.

Example:

Code:

; Sonic The Hedgehog
; BLUS30008
;From Game Genie For PS3

:SYS-DATA

[Max Rings]
20000084 3B9AC9FF

For Reporting

1. Post a reply at this thread.
2. You can also use the Contact page from PS3Cheating.net
3. You can also report new cheats or checksum information, by posting comments at the relevant game title accordingly at PS3Cheating.net.

Todo List

1. Add codes from Game Genie US/EU (On Going...)
2. Add codes Cyber Gadget Save Editor (JP)(for PS3) (On Going...)
3. Add/Port codes to AS region (On Going...)
4. Add custom user codes and codes for copy-protected saves (On Going...)

What is the code format?

Code:

;Game Title/Name
;Game ID
;Author/Source

;The Path command is optional, and it only needs the folder name (without any file name).
;The program uses it to NOT allow the cheats if a different folder name is used.
;For instance, if the cheat only works in the profile folder.
;A more flexible alternative to Path command is using:
;:BLES00049GAME002\EM_GAME.DAT
;If only the file name is used, the folder is not validated. Example:
;:EM_GAME.DAT
;If the file name is not provided, the program will use the first file found in the folder (excluding PARAM.PFD, PARAM.SFO, ICON0.PNG, EBOOT.BIN, EBOOT.ELF). 
;I recommend to always specify at least the file name.

;Game Genie Code
:PLAY.DAT ;Needed Save Data Name. Only Need to declare once.
[Max SP]
2000006C 0001869F

;BSD patch format, require the 0x at the begining of the line and the parameters are variable size.
:SYS-DATA ;Needed Save Data Name. Only Need to declare once.
[Unlock All Difficulties]
0x00000028 60

Human readable script implemented in BSD.

Code:

:GAMEDATA
[TEST1]
search "difficulty" ;Searches for the word "difficulty" as text.
write next 0: "Difficulty" ;Overwrites with the text at 0 bytes after the found offset in this case "next 0" is at the found offset. "next (10)" or "next A" would write 10 bytes after the found offset.

[TEST2]
; (67) = 0x43 ;Addresses enclosed in parenthesis are treated as decimal.
write at (67): 446966666963756C7479

;The following 3 lines are equivalent:
;write at (67): 446966666963756C7479
;write at 43: "Difficulty"
;write at 0x43: "Difficulty"

[TEST3]
search 646966666963756C7479:1 ;":1" means repeat search 1 time (default). ":3" at the end would set the pointer to the 3rd occurrence of the searched text
write next 0: 446966666963756C7479

[TEST4]
set pointer: 43 ;Sets the file pointer to a specific address.
write next 0: 446966666963756C7479 ;Overwrites 0 bytes after the file pointer address.

[TEST5]
write at 43: "Difficulty" ;3 different ways to indicate the same.

[TEST6]
write at 0x43: 446966666963756C7479

;The 6 examples above are equivalent (assuming the text "difficulty" is found at address 0x0043)

Tutorial in Japanese by Bokosukagames

Code:

http://blog.livedoor.jp/bokosukagames/archives/26109305.html

What is the Game Genie code-types are supported by BSD?

Currently the following code-types are not supported, until further information are known about them.

Code:

Codes that start with 3, 6, 9 (Partial), A are not supported.

The cheat does not work?

There are number of reasons why the cheats won't work.
1. The code-type is not supported yet.
2. Code has typo error.

The main reason why it may not work is due to multi-level encryption on the save.

Multi-level Encryption includes:

Code:

Compression 
Extra Encryption 
Checksums
Obscuring
Outside/External Encryption (Not even encrypted using Sony's Key)

Due to this reason, the cheats will not work.

Example of games that has multi-level encryption:

Code:

Final Fantasy 13 and 13-2
Final Fantasy 13-2
Crysis 3
Skyrim

If Some Codetypes are not supported by BSD, why are they still being added to the BSD?

Short Answer
Future Proof.

Long Answer
Even if some codetypes are not supported by BSD, our goal is to consolidate as much cheats as possible.
If more information/knowledge on codetypes and save decryption are gained, we can easily use those patches or update them.
We don't have to hunt for cheats from past titles all over again.

Method 1 - How do I find my own cheats? (Using Hex Editor)

For folk who are unsure on how to mod or cheat your PS3 Saves, please watch these videos. They are for Game Genie for PS3. But the concepts are the same.

After watching these video, if you are wondering how you can apply this knowledge to BruteforceSaveData, follow these steps.

1. After you have "Decrypt PFD"
2. Double Click the Save Data in the bottom left window. Not PARAM.SFO. It will launch HEX Editor.
3. Now launch Windows Calculator. Set it to "Programmer", "Digit grouping" and "Basic"

Now you need to know what you want to change in your game.

Example in game :
Upgrade Points - 12
But you want to change it to 99.

In Windows Calculator make sure the radio button is in "Dec", now key in 12. Change the radio button to "Hex". You will get "C" or in other words "0C". In the HEX editor search for "0C". You will most likely get many search results or just one. It depends. Look at the value before and after the region of the search results. If you are sure that it could be the value. You can change it to 99. But you can't just type 99. It has to be in HEX. Which is "63".

4. After editing and saving, return back to BSD.
5. Encrypt PFD
6. Verify PFD
7. Transfer save. If can't be done via XMB use FTP or MM
8. If cheat or mod is not working, game crashing/not loading.
9. Restore save and try again. You won't always get the first time right. Don't Give Up!!

Hope this instruction help for folks who are new to save modifications.

Method 2 - How do I find my own cheats? (BSD's Patch Creator)

Scenario 1

If the value is at single static offset/address?

Solution

Code:

[Cheat 1]
; (67) = 0x43 ;Addresses enclosed in parenthesis are treated as decimal.
write at (67): 446966666963756C7479

;The following 3 lines are equivalent:
;write at (67): 446966666963756C7479
;write at 43: "Difficulty"
;write at 0x43: "Difficulty"

Scenario 2

If the value is at multiple static offset?

Solution

Code:

[Cheat 2]
write at 0x43: 12345
write at 0x55: 56789

Scenario 3

If the value is not at a static offset/address? What if the position is always changing at every saving?

Solution A

Code:

; the search sets the file pointer to the offset
search "a text value that is near the bytes that will be changed"
write next 3:"TEXT"

Solution B

Code:

; the 2 bytes CA CA will be searched starting from offset 0:
search 0xCACA
write next 0x100:0xCAFE
; the 2 bytes: CA FE are written 256 bytes after the 1st occurrence of CACA
; 0x100 = (256). If the bytes CA CA are not found, the write is not performed.

Scenario 4

What if you need to change at multiple location of a value is not at a static offset/address? What if the position is always changing at every saving?

Solution A

Code:

; the 4 bytes BE B0 CA FE   will be searched 3 times starting from offset 0:
search 0xBEB0CAFE:3
write next (-512):0xDEADC0DE
; the 4 bytes: DE AD C0 DE are overwritten 512 bytes before the 3rd occurrence of BEB0CAFE
; If the bytes CA CA are not found, the write is not performed.

Scenario 5

When to use Set Pointer?

Solution A

Code:

; find 3rd occurrence of BEB0CAFE
search 0xBEB0CAFE:3
set pointer:-0x200
write next 0:0xDEADC0DE

Solution B

Code:

;overwrite the last 4 bytes of the file
set pointer:lastbyte-0x4
write next 0:0xDEADC0DE

Scenario 6

When to use Copy Operation?

It is a command that reads the bytes from an static address and writes it in another place.

Solution

Code:

;Copy 16 bytes from offset 0x1000 to offset 0x2000
copy 0x1000:0x2000:16
copy 0x1000:0x2000:0x10

4. Does not support all Game Genie codetypes. (Can be supported if more information is gained.)
5. Codes comes from various sources. Not all might work. (This is the internet. With constant reporting & feedback DB will be corrected.)
