Advantage and Disadvantages of going from CEX to DEX?

**atko2** · 09-22-2012,11:20 AM

Ive been seeing a lot about going from CEX to DEX but i dont completely understand it. Is there a good reason to change? Im on the TB firmware, as i own a dongle, so im guessing i would need to change all the eboots on the TB games to the ones that have been cracked. Hopefully that makes sense lol.

Im not massively technical so as simple terms as possible please lol

You would have to replace all the TB eboots with the official ones for them to work on DEX. But that doesn't matter because you can play from your original discs on DEX.

How about the 3.41/3.55 fixed eboots? Will it worked fine too, just like the original eboots?

I'm not sure, as I am not on DEX. I doubt it though because I believe an official patch must be used in order for a game to work on DEX. Because of that, I would imagine any eboot fix would be rendered useless.

With that in mind, maybe the TB eboots will "work" because they will be ignored anyway because of the official patch. Although TB fixes are more than eboots. There are sprx files that are used for TB fixes too, so those would definitely need to be original.

Did you not back up the original files when applying your TB fixes? Can you not simply re-dump the original discs?
