Tutorial: How to Get COD: Black Ops working on v3.41 (Jailbroken PS3 Console)!

Hello Guys and Girls,

When COD: Black Ops finally arrived in the stores it was quickly found out that it required v3.50 to play!

JonahUK pointed out that when the EBOOT.BIN was viewed with a hex editor it showed it was compiled with the 3.40 SDK meaning it was debug update time!!!

I extracted the EBOOT.BIN file from the 1.02 debug update modified them and made a pack here:

Mod Pack:

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=GR0AYKCK

Here is a tutorial to get the game working:

(make sure you backup all your files first incase you do something wrong)

Step One:

download the files and go to where you put your game and edit your pram.sfo to say 3.40 with PS3SFOEdit (included In pack) see step 4 for help.

***EXAMPLE OF WHERE YOU MAY HAVE PUT YOUR GAME***

dev_HDD0/GAME/LAUN12345/BL*****/PS3_GAME/HERE!

or

USB:/GAMEZ/BL*****/PS3_GAME/HERE

Step Two

Update the game to 1.02 using the retail update for your region.

Title ID - BLUS30591: http://b0.ww.np.dl.playstation.net/t...2-V0100-PE.pkg

Title ID - BLES01035: http://b0.ww.np.dl.playstation.net/t...2-V0100-PE.pkg

Title ID - BLES01032: http://b0.ww.np.dl.playstation.net/t...2-V0100-PE.pkg

Title ID - BLES01033: http://b0.ww.np.dl.playstation.net/t...2-V0100-PE.pkg

Title ID - BLES01031: http://b0.ww.np.dl.playstation.net/t...2-V0100-PE.pkg

Title ID - BLES01034: http://b0.ww.np.dl.playstation.net/t...2-V0100-PE.pkg

Step 3

after your update has finished, open comgenie or ftp and go to:
dev_hdd0/GAME/"Blackops"(BL*****)/USRDIR and put the eboot in the pack here

Step 4

go to
dev_hdd0/GAME/"Blackops"(BL******)/

and copy the sfo.pram file to your pc.

To edit the sfo file use the sfoeditor ive inc in my pack

click load and choose your PRAM.SFO file.

click Advanced Edit

where it says 3.5000 change this to say 3.4000 and press ok.

press save and save it to the desktop or somewhere you will be able to see it easy.

now either put it on a usb drive and copy it back with comgenie or ftp it back to the folder it came from.

Step 5

Big thanks to tehreaper for testing this and confirming it working on external and internal HDD!

Also it seems that multiplayer freezes at the moment. but campaign and zombies works fine!

EDIT:
netkas has posted this about multiplayer its unconfirmed at this stage

YouTube - Blackops

This is the way that works atm im sure there will probably be a simpler way soon!

ALSO DONT ASK ME WHERE I GOT THE GAME I DONT HAVE IT! I JUST GOT IT WORKING

When GT5 comes out could we also use the same trick or has ***y used the 3.50 sdk? Good work keep it up :-) x

I'd love to be able to try this, however I can't see it "in the usual places" that I know of
Will wait for it to appear.

[Datalife]

Thanks. atleast we got something going on with these new games.This is a big help

[tnx]

This looks good.
Will be trying it as soon as poss i recon.
One things is slightly confusing me.

At "Step 2" it says to update according to your region.There are three files to download. I have infact downloaded all three but how do i know which is for my region ?

when you download the game and extract it you probably get a map called BLES or BLUS with some numbers after it...

If you look close to the links there is in the link the same as you prob downloaded. So it has to be one of those versions

well done was only a matter of time,what about other 3.50 games like the fight do we need to wait for the updates first? tried editing no luck

[BobbyBlunt]

CoD is mainly used for multiplayer, so unless you like the SP or playing on LAN this doesnt matter. My main fear is people are going to tear into this and hack it to death. It hasnt even released here yet and I give it a week before the modded lobbies and whatnot start.

[dankratas]

Can anyone upload an unpacked version? (install the update to your PS3, then FTP it to PC and upload). Because I have the original PSJailBreak and this peace of **** can not install game update pkg`s. I think this would help a lot of people.

[exx22]

can any one try this on any other games
the fight
