As my first contest entry-
I was bored, so I whipped up an application that checks to see if the folders that you have to setup for you to be able to install the CFW on the ps3 are named and correct so you never have to wonder why the ps3 could not find the update. Source code is included
Took me 5 min to develop
How to: Just place the .exe file in your flash drive where you have your folders and cfw setup run it and it will tell you if there is a typo, the foldername correct, the pup name correct and then if so it tell you your ready to go. THE PROGRAM HAS TO BE RIGHT WHERE THE FOLDERS ARE REMEMBER
Pictures:
With everything correct-
it should look like that ^^^^^
WITH A ERROR like wrong spelled folder
Source code:
Code:
#include <Windows.h>
#include <direct.h>
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
#pragma comment(lib, "shlwapi.lib")
#include <shlwapi.h>
using namespace std;
typedef unsigned int u32;
/*******************************************************************************

bool Exists(string Path)
{
return GetFileAttributes(Path.c_str()) != INVALID_FILE_ATTRIBUTES;
}
/*******************************************************************************

void Quit(string Message)
{
cout << Message.c_str() << "\r\nPress any key to continue...";
cin.get();
exit(0);
}

SourcePath.erase(SourcePath.rfind("\\"));
// - Verify 'Cfw' folder
SourcePath += "\\PS3\\UPDATE\\PS3UPDAT.PUP";
cout << "- Checking see if Folders For CFW are correct" << endl;
if (!Exists(SourcePath))
Quit("Error: Folders are not correct(" + SourcePath + ")\r\n");
Quit("\r\nYou are now ready to the USB into the ps3!\r\n");
return 0;
