PS3 PKGView BETA 1 Extractor & UnPKG with Source Code released
ifcaro has just released PS3 PKGView BETA 1, right along side naehrwert's release of UnPKG with source code. What are these two individual programs you ask? They are PlayStation 3 PKG file extractors and unpackers.
Here is a roughly translated quote:
Quote:
PKGView is a file extraction tool to debug PS3 PKG files. This tool 100% legal it contains no code Sony.
PKGView comes with a nice GUI (graphical user interface) that helps simplify the process of extracting individual files or the complete package.
Although it's a very handy tool to have in your PS3 hacking arsenal, it's currently very limited on what it can and can't do. For instance it can only extract individual files and cannot remove folders or create PKG files.
You will also need the Microsoft VC++ Redistributable Package to run UnPKG, linked below.
Enjoy!
UPDATE: 09/12/10 PkgView BETA 2 Released! (Big thanks go out to komatose for the heads up.)
