      EDIT: you don't even need to use one though, u can copy from external HD right to your ps3 HD using a manager.. Comgenie is a good one.
      ok but i removed Eboot and put usrdir into ps3_xxxx and my manager wont read game to copy to internal hdd

      When I copied my sims 3 back up to the ps3 HD I only copied the USRDIR folder and same thing happened to me, When i copied the whole folder (without the original .eboot) I finally progressed a bit further where the game showed up on screen

      - Might not be your solution but I hope this helps.

      EDIT: also I'm on 3.55, not sure if it'll run the same

      All my backups are on my external HD. I dont know why it dont work. This programm wont let me make a pkg and with the others Naruto dont work. If someone make a pkg from Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 Eur (BLES00952) and it work on 3.41 then please send me a pn or upload it.

      I finally discover solution for my problem. I can't do the .pkg because its seems the EBOOT.BIN file is corrupted. So what i did? Just to get sure if i was right about the problem, i changed the EBOOT.BIN for the other game, i copied the Eboot.bin from another game to the folder i want. I know this wouldn't allow me to play the game, I just did this to see if I was able to do the .pkg.
      Result: It succeds doing the .pkg and installed sucefully.
      Now I must find a EBOOT.BIN for my game that works.

      Just use this one, make the package, install it on ur ps3, transfer the USRDIR folder without the original EBOOT. And then give it a shot. Not all the games are working. But quite some of them do work well.

      Can someone explain, what folder you're suppose to rename? Also, I'm hearing you're suppose to delete the eboot.bin, which one is suppose to be deleted?

      Lastly, does this work if you download the game updates?

      I have tried this on Windows 7 & Windows XP and it just keeps crashing. A stable version would be great please!!!

      after you install the package on ur ps3, go to ur dev_hdd0 folder in ur ps3 and find the installed folder and get in there you'll find USRDIR folder in which you'll see the modified EBOOT.bin ok you will keep this one. After this you just have to transfer the game to this folder. (Using a ftp connection)

      Hello every one...
      I spend last night trying to make "Madagascar Kart" running.
      Using the trick of NBA, it worked (mirroring the PS3_GAME folder from BD to /game/BLU??????) ...
      We should open a new topic with especifc instruction about EVERY game tried...
      'Cause I've tested FEAR2 with every instutction found here and still nothing.

      I'm a C# programmer too, I can help to improve this tool too!
      Any svn server of the source code?

      The program works great, first try with Uncharted 1 and it worked....
      However the game doesnt recognize my previous savedata.
      Does anyone have the same problem??

      My original Uncharted 1 savedata is BCES00065, but when I try booting the backup, the savedata changes to BCJS30015.....I need help.......
