  • PS3 Game Updater Version 1.1 Released

    Heres's a small program I created, to make it easier for users download updates for their games.

    This program will scan you backed up games folder (On your computer, not PS3), show details about each game, and give you the option to download updates for your games, all at once by your choice (deselect the checkboxes on the left to remove a game from the update list).

    Version 1.1
    -----------
    + Added "Settings" and "About" windows. Use the "Settings" window to save your last used folder, open folder after downloading all updates, and determine whether to save the updates into one big folder, or put each update in its game folder.

    + Table now shows the actualy game path as well.

    + Select/Deselect all checkbox added.

    + Added Download speed indicator.

    + Downloading now shows the version of the donwloaded update.

    + Minor GUI improvements.

    Version 1.0
    -----------
    First release, only scans folder and shows details. Previously called "PS3 Game Detector".

    Huge props go to TiMESPLiNTER, for his sfo4j code. I converted it to C#. Amazing job mate

      The program could be better because it needs the game on your pc instead using the title id.

      Also even if the game has no update files found it says all updates has been downloaded.

      This is pretty nice. I wonder where they get all the updates because I though they all came from Sony.

      plug out the cable to the modem, too.
      But remember! Once you installed CFW there is no proof yet that things like this are logged at a still unknown place. Chances are just lower not to get banned.

      where does it download from?

      Strange. I'm probably just not seeing it, but where exactly do the downloaded updates end up. I checked in the root of the drive containing the games, in the directory containing the games even the individual games directories... NOTHING.

      I realize there is a setting for the location, but regardless of what I set it to, I cannot find where the program is putting the files. Weird.

      Looked everywhere... even in the directory where I launched the program just in case.... Nothing.

      Anyone else have any success with this program?

      It creates a folder called "PS3 Game Updater Updates" in your game directory

      Excellent program

      They all do. Directly from Sony's servers.
      This is probably the 5 or 6th app like this released.
      There is at least one other app that allows you to use your PSN ID and Password to download packages from their locked servers.
      Most of Sony's update servers are open.
      They recently closed their firmware servers.

      how do you apply the updates on the PS3? just run the game normally?

      Edit: NM. Prog DL files as .PKG files. Install via XMB

      Prog is a bit buggy though. It seems to DL files you already have and doesn't check if you have the files

      theres only 1 reason i can see for getting a game update and thats a trophy patch, but if your offline trophies wouldnt matter. all those patches do are fix fun bugs in the game, i dont know about all you but i would love to find a glitch and fall threw the level just to see what the behind the scenes on that game look like

      What a RUBE I am. Thanks, found my updates!

      One other comment to make. Wanted to comment about one particular game.... That being PAIN.

      This program found ONE update (a 46 mb file). When I used the "Awesome Update Finder 0.2" program, it found FIVE HUGE updates. We're talkin like a gig and a half or more (haven't grabbed'em all yet). What gives?

      I know the five updates is correct, as I already did the update once on another PS3, and there were five smokin big updates.

      Seems that perhaps this release isn't finding what it should? Just my findings for one particular game...

      great app! one thing, it hangs when trying to recognize the vanquish update. Does anyone knows what file does this program checks? you would not need the full game then, just that file to update....

      Whatever this might does but before that i wanna know - Is it really advisable to update games if we are playing on JB systems?

      What impact updating would have if we go online?

      Typically updates are related to online play (the game may restrict your access if you don't update), although they can of course contain bug fixes as well. From my experience it doesn't hurt to do updates. Been doing them on my dongle/JB as well as CFW and neither has caused problems. There's always the chance that it could "break" the game... but if it does, just go into EDIT GAME DATA and delete it.

      As for playing online... I guess it depends on your fear of being banned should Sony decide to drop the hammer...
