Splinter Cell: Blacklist PS3 OFW BD Mirror FIX Tutorial by Blade

Here is my PS3 OFW BD Mirror FIX tutorial for Splinter Cell: Blacklist, geared towards those who already tried checking the downgradable PS3 models and PS3 CFW FAQ with no luck, and decided to try one of the more recent PS3 Data Transfer Utility (DTU) / Backup Injection / Conversion methods.

Error-output with usual method:

LocID_CONF_Disc_Read_Error

How to fix? On CFW, just enable BD-mirror or use cobra, but what about OFW??

Requirements:

1. The untouched game (i.e.: BLES01766-[Splinter.Cell-Blacklist])
2. The official game-update (i.e.: EP0001-BLES01766_00-BLEFIGSNLSCNPOBR-A0103-V0100-PE_fw43000.00.pkg)
   1. BLES01878 [RU]
   2. BLUS31025 [US]
   3. BLES01766 [EU]
3. PS3GameConvert_v0.9.exe / PS3GameConvert_v0.91.rar

Downside of this workaround:

Your game will fill up the DOUBLE amount of memory on hdd

Notes:

For getting game-updates, use ps3tools' gameupdater. To get the right GAMEID you can check the PARAM.SFO of your game with ps3tools' SFO-Editor: i.e. BLES01878, BLUS31025, BLES01766

I'm gonna take BLES01766 for this tut...

STEPs:

1. Do the usual Method and convert the original game with PS3GameConvert_v0.9.exe by using the proper game-update corresponding to your GAMEID EP0001-BLES01766_00-BLEFIGSNLSCNPOBR-A0103-V0100-PE_fw43000.00.pkg
   
   Output is:
   
   
   
   
   
2. Open the original game-folder: i.e. BLES01766-[Splinter.Cell-Blacklist]\PS3_GAME\USRDIR
   
   
3. Now mark the following to copy:
   1. Default [yes the complete folder]
   2. UplayMediaJP.dat
   3. UplayMedia.dat
   4. UplayBrowser.ppu.dat
   5. _hdd.layout
   6. version.ini
   7. UplayBrowser.ppu.self
   
   
4. Goto to the converted-game-output-folder. open BLES01766\USRDIR and paste everything here. THERE SHOULD BE NO FILES TO OVERWRITE.
   BLES01766\USRDIR before paste:
   
   
   
   BLES01766\USRDIR after paste:
   
   
   
   
5. Proceed as usual: transfer both folders to CFW dev_hdd0/game, rebuild database, enjoy, DataTransfer to OFW, profit...

Hope these infos are just as golden to someone as to me

Cheers
Blade

P.S.: Also sorry for my noobish english

NOTES:

1) I'm quite sure using the KDW method for step 1 is also ok
2) You need the FULL GAME, i.e.: the russian version sent to me missed a lot of files
3) The files need to be untouched, no modified, fixed or whatsoever

Blade , you're actually saying to copy those files in the BLUS / BLES folder ? After conversion, that's the folder with the game update. I can imagine you tried a lot of stuff and how you found this , maybe in the future we can track down the exact files that need to be added.

Every game is a world, this method could work or not on another game.

We should keep trying until find every fix.

Back with my question. The fact that you say it will take the double amount of space means the files are copied into the BLES / BLUS folder , after conversion that is the patch folder. If you copy to the NPEB / NPUB folder , the files will be replaced , it will remain the same size.

So , which one is correct ?
