    Thanks to tthousand & ccfman2004 for the tip!



    There's a new update for one of flat_z's hack tools that was released earlier this week. Coming to you is an update of 'pfdtool'. With the new update, support has been added for 'PARAM.PFD' files, among other changes.



    Changelog For pdftool 0.2.0

    • Support of PARAM.PFD for trophies (without keys, of course)
    • Support of PARAM.PFD v4 which used in a newer SDK
    • Fixed a bug with verify operation on signature hashes
    • Now you can use a list of product codes delimeted by '/' (slash), for example: [BLUS31142/BLES01403], they should use the same disc hash key and secure file IDs
    • Show an information about .PFD type and version


    The format for 'global.conf' is different. Please add these changes to your files:
    1. Add a new parameter called 'user_id' which set the user identifier (the same number as used in your home folder: /dev_hdd0/home/[user_id]/)
    2. Add a new parameter called 'keygen_key'. Open 'Talk:Keys' page on the PS3DevWiki and search for string 'KeygenV4'
    3. Rename the parameter 'param_sfo_key' to 'savegame_param_sfo_key' (see below)
    4. There a bunch of new keys for trophies: 'trophy_param_sfo_key', 'tropsys_dat_key', 'tropusr_dat_key', 'troptrns_dat_key', 'tropconf_sfm_key' and they are not public so left them as XX.

    [code]
    ; Global settings

    [global]
    authentication_id=1010000001000003
    console_id=
    user_id=00000001
    syscon_manager_key=
    keygen_key=
    savegame_param_sfo_key=
    trophy_param_sfo_key=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXX
    tropsys_dat_key=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXX
    tropusr_dat_key=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXX
    troptrns_dat_key=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXX
    tropconf_sfm_key=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXX
    fallback_disc_hash_key=

    Also I noticed that some of you use a kernel swapping feature in the REX firmware. Don't forget to use your current (!) console ID. For example, if you made a save game on a DEX then you need to specify a DEX console ID.
    Download: pfdtool 0.2.0 (Compiled with hotfix)

      Something is funky with the encryption part. I have the right key as I can open up the decrypted save file with a save editor no problem. When I encrypt the file and update the hashes, the game says the file is corrupted. Even if I simply decrypt and the encrypt an unedited save I get a file corruption message. The game is Borderlands 2.

      New version to fix the problem with Borderlands 2 and possibly other games.

      If there is a save editor that can do that. For Borderlands 2 I use an external save editor to modify my game save to increase my level/stats, add weapons, etc then use this tool to re-encrypt and rehash the game save files.

      Can I use this tool to resign game saves to use on a different console? If not is there a method to do this as I have moved consoles and find most my gamesaves won't work. I can use the feature on Rebug to allow any gamesave but it could cause problems later on as SEN may start banning people for using unsigned gamesaves as they will think you are cheating. Any help on this as it is pretty easy on the X360 but I have never found a way to 'move' gamesaves on the PS3 from one console to another.

      If you manage to edit the game save itself, this will help you update the hash in the .PFD file.
