why?

There's a lot of bad patches floating around because a lot of people didn't patch the SPRX + SELF files correctly and didn't bother to test before uploading. You need to get the klicense from the eboot for them to decrypt and reencrypt. Plus some games need the decrypted eboot to be hex edited before resigning. This tool will do all that for you. You would need to install the update that you're trying to patch, then copy the eboot and any sprx/self files into this program directory. If it's just an eboot you would run eboot_fix.bat. If you have sprx/self files too you would run bruteforce.exe instead. That will bruteforce the klicense so everything gets decrypted and resigned correctly. It has some klicenses already stored, but if it doesn't it will take some time to find it. It could take a couple minutes or an hour or two. Just let it run

I just did the 1.01 update for Sonic Generations BLES01236 just using the eboot_fix.bat and it works fine. I'm on Rebug 3.55.7 with the 4.20 spoofer enabled so I didn't have to edit the PARAM.SFOs

There is an old fix for Sonic Generations that has been around since Christmas that 100% works anyway if you can find it.

The file I got was from here. Remember those 49 patched games? that's where I got it.

But yeah, so I still need to do what you said then??????????????????????????????????????

Sorry about those patches. I already knew at least half of them were bad. That's why I didn't post the info. It looks like you have it sorted out though. That klicense tool is your best bet on getting 3.60 games running

Sorry I just saw the bad quote. Yes you need to use the tool I linked above.

I don't know which ones are bad except a few that I tested and I also know the reasons that they aren't patched right. I said something about it in the comments but it looks like people aren't reading them. I really have no interest in testing dozens of probably bad patches to weed them out
