How to Make PS3 CFW Games Work on Any PlayStation 3 OFW Guide

Following the PS3 Game Backups on OFW 4.70 guide, this method by me (Hibatullah Albatawy on YouTube) details how to make PS3 CFW games work on any PlayStation 3 OFW with a summary from @djurist located HERE.

Note that it needs two units of PS3 the CFW as the master and OFW as the target.

STEPS:

1. download GAME_CONVERT.rar
2. extract it to C:, it will be PS3>Game Convert>Convert.bat and make_npdata.exe
3. copy any PS3_GAME that have LICDIR folder in it, if it doesn't have then you have to find it yourself with LIC.DAT Generator online http://jonnysp.bplaced.net/lic.php#
4. paste it inside Game Convert folder, it will be PS3_GAME, Convert.bat, make_npdata.exe
5. double click Convert.bat, type NPxxxxxx, these x are your retail game id. for instance, the game id is BLES12345, then you must type NPEB12345.
6. wait untill it finishes its job
7. make a glass of hot cocoa
8. when it's done, you can see a new folder exist.
9. download the patch update for that game (BLES12345) and extract it. put the eboot.bin out of it. place it in NPEB12345/USRDIR/
10. create a folder named TEST on an external HDD (FAT 32)
11. copy NPEB12345 and BLES12345 (the extracted patch update), paste it into folder TEST.
12. on PS3 CFW 4.81, copy the two files into dev_hdd0/game..
13. do Rebuild Database
14. the game will be shown in XMB
15. turn on PS3 OFW 4.81 and plug an ethernet cable and connect it to PS3 CFW one.
16. on CFW, go to Settings> System Settings> Data Transfer Utitlity> pick number 1> say no> say no> waiting for transfer> enter
17. on OFW do the same way, but pick number 2, just wait till it gets questions for asking to format, hit yes and yes.
18. and transferring, happy waiting
19. drink your no longer hot cocoa
20. profit

I have tried running the ga,e on multiman first, it did saved my game thought it was ok but after I transferred it to ofw, I needed to delete the save date because it was made from a different console, then i had the same problem again.

Thanks you very much. But I'm having quite a hard time on this, this is like completely new compare to the first tutorial you made. Do we have a different tut using this new version of gameconvert?

When I tried running the program I got the error I need to install the .net something but the program went on. And after the process, I got 2 new folders inside game convert folder one is named 5 and the other NP~2. And I'm totally lost after this What I did is I placed PS3_GAME folder inside the PS3/Gameconvert and run the program.

Thank you very much for the help, and I'm sorry if my message was too long.

I saw a new tutorial today from jjkkyu the producer of true ancestor sereies that says that there are 3 ways for installing games on 4.70+

1. by using dtu transfer between cfw and ofw

2. if you have ps3 with ofw 4.70 or lower console version you can make the tutorial on that console and create backup then restore it on ofw 4.81 because sony has patched the restore operation so the edat and all files that used to unlock files are stored on archieve.dat and that go to end by sony but by making the operation on 4.70 or lower console the unlocking files will be stored in archeive2.dat and they will be accepted in the restoration process

3. if you get the idps of your 4.70+ console you can inject the files manually to ps3xportgui to archeive2.dat and restore the backup on 4.70+ consoles

I have tried up till now the third method and it gives me error unable to open game dir. Any one try this operation and if it was successful with him please post to us how the ps3xportgui works

thanks, I was just having issues with my laptop. It was actually simpler using that new version of game convert. But I'm having trouble making SAO lost song to run and tom clancy ghost reccon future soldier. Are there any fix for this games? or they're simply not playable on injection? Thank you very much friend
