My brother wanted me to inject some of the working games I converted on his OFW 4.81 PS3 but he requested me to backup all of his game saves and to make sure that his saves do work like it used to be before I do anything permanent.
I tested this on my setup (CFW & OFW 4.81) using the last of us. It obviously work flawlessly given DTU moves everything including my username so I created a dummy profile, copied my TLoU saves on a USB flashdrive and pasted it in the dummy account. The save files actually worked but it was restricted like not be able to earn trophies and continue to save your progress and etc.
I know that not all saves act like this... because some will allow you to use save from other profiles without any restrictions and some are so secure that you wouldn't be able to copy them on a USB stick at all (unless you use cloud saves via PS+).
I need help, I need to know what my options are to Save the Games Saves. Is it as simple as just creating a profile with the same username as it was on my brother's PS3?
