Even if you cannot yet sign properly with "makeself", you can make fake SELF files using "make_fself."Quote:

It's a temporary solution which can help ;-)

I have fixed the header length issue. Its not giving error but returning to XMB. result is same for make_fself and make_fself_npdrm. I will try POP now. Attachment 592
Both Splatterhouse's and Red Dead Redemption Undead Nightmare eboots can't be modified with current method from Veritas - it was confirmed by the Veritas (who originally modified GT5, NFS and Tales of Graces) and by the people who modified other currently working eboots (PoP, Sly, etc) Thats too bad. :mad:
i need help when i finish installing (download and install).
when i open the home folder it says there should be a user folder made by the program but for some reason i don't see it or have one
any1 can share a light on this thanks
I hate to ask but I have been trying to figure it out myself for the last few hours, and searching all over as I don't like to ask questions. I am fine with getting the "eboot.elf" file, and opening that in the hex editor. I also have used the command "readself eboot.bin", and that is where I run in to problems, what am I modifying?
Where or how do I find the encryped metadata in the .elf or bin (whichever one it is I am suppose to be modifying) file for that matter to edit it?
I really hate to ask but I don't want to just download pre patched, I would rather have the knowledge.
Thank you,
Ok gravitysdepth so you have modify EBOOT.BIN and you go to youer C:\cygwin\home\(User)\ you should have the decrypted EBOOT.ELF now open youer hex editor now In eboot.elf, go to every encrypted metadata section (now decrypted), copy its data, and replace the encrypted data in EBOOT.BIN and save it . Hope it Helps you.Quote:

Now take first section from "Encrypted Metadata" take offset value and subtract "header len" from it , result will be offset of ELF file. Now you have two offset one from eboot.bin and one for ELF. Take size of the section and copy data from ELF to eboot. I used Linux dd command to achieved this (cygwin). I attached the script in my last post.Quote:

I used the one modified by finalbyRikuKH3. I took the binary difference between both and found that some other work need to be done over eboots. There are 150 byte differences.
That's mean overwriting is working correctly but some other work is required.
can u point out what section ur refering too when u say first section from encrypted metadata from this please. thanks in advance im trying to learn this and i am struggling.Quote:

Hello I followed this tutorial to decrypt a bin file from a 3.41 version game and I got the error "self_decrypt_header failed", can somebody tell me how can I fix this problem. Does the eboot.bin file needs to be from 3.5 firmware?
PS: I'm doing with a 3.41 firmware bin file just to test.
Thank you very much.
