How to play games with files over 4GB on fat32. [tutorial]

[gametester]

My folder structure:
\BCES00081\PS3_GAME\USRDIR\data_ps3\ICONS
\BCES00081\PS3_GAME\USRDIR\data_ps3\interface
\BCES00081\PS3_GAME\USRDIR\data_ps3\LocalCachePS3
and
\BCES00081\PS3_GAME\USRDIR\data_ps3.psarc (empty size)

and does it work?? if so did u just make a text file and call it data_ps3.psarc? or what

testing this method now....

Anybody managed to get Hawx 2 working fully? I have game working barring the sounds, will have more of a play around today.

Killzone 2 i have working up to loading a campaign and then it just sticks on loading screen.

Xerius i tried this way too i tried really all the way possible but when it freeze it means that the data is not available or readable at this place.

Killzone 2 seems much more hard than uncharted 2 and front mission

Muffy sorry i don't have this game...

I'll try motorstorm PR today

Yeah i also tried numerous variations for Killzone 2

Data_ps3 folder causes black screen only on mine in fact the only time i get it to load to menu is when they are in

ICONS
interface
LocalCachePS3

folders
The local cache ps3 is the one that confuses me, i must install it from disk again and see what it installs internally and this could help sort out a solution.

it will install obviously the psarc file only...
nothing else until you start the game i think...

motorstorm is unextractable with this version

That make three games fully playable with this trick:

Uncharted 2
Front Mission Evolved
mafia 2

yeah i just wanted to see if it created any folders locally on ps3 but cannot see any with the gameid.

If we could just ripp out all languages apart from English then recompile into psarc it would fit nicely onto a fat32 drive
