Can PSN Games Be Played from MultiMan ???

[57413]

Does MultiMan or any other BackUp manager play/organize PSN games, like Demo games, or free games?

I don't like them being installed in the GAME section.

I would like them listed in the MultiMan App.

CHeers!

(and NO! this is not Pirate talk)

I don't think it can, but don't quote me on that. Dean is a pretty amazing dev.

I will use the Catherine demo as an example.
Create a new folder inside NPJB90317, rename the new folder to PS3_GAME then move all other files into the PS3_GAME folder. The file structure should look like this: NPJB90317/PS3_GAME/all other files.
Now move NPJB90317 into the folder that has all your backups in it and your manager will see the game.

Holy shit... this really works?? Man, this is a fantastic discovery if it does I've got SO many PSN titles, it would be great to organise them in MultiMAN




*scuttles off to try it*

Will try, thanks!

Sadly this is a no-go You can move the game and setup the folders correctly, it will show in MultiMAN -- but won't be playable. If you launch normally, MM tries to mount to BD-ROM and fails ("Unrecognised Data" on the XMB) - and if you launch directly, it still fails ("Unrecognised Data" on the XMB)

*sigh*

Oh well. It sounded so good as well!

Man... some times I can be sooo dumb...

I had this working before, but I guess i forgot how I did it.

So after messing around some more I figured it out.

I had a copy of the game(with original file structure intact) in my hdd_0/game folder.

I copied not moved it to my GAMEZ folder then changed the structure as I previously described.

Sorry about that, It looks like you have to leave the game in hdd_0/game.

You can still launch it from a backup manager if you copy just the param.sfo and usrdir(remove all files except for eboot.bin) to a folder in your backup folder.

If we ever get the ability to edit psn eboots then we can change them to read DEV_BDVD and then my first post will be usefull.

Maybe dean can make this happen?
