Requirements

  • A jailbroken PlayStation 3.
  • MultiMAN, a PS3 homebrew app.
  • The disc(s) of the game you're breaking into the files of. (PSN Store downloaded games will be discussed later.)
  • A flash drive (to transfer game files to PC).

Jailbreak Guide

You'll need to jailbreak your PS3 before going on. If your PS3 is jailbroken already, skip this section; otherwise, below are guides for the various console models:

Tutorial

For PS3 Disc-Based Games

  1. You should have MultiMAN already after following one of the above guides. If not, get it here.
  2. Install using HEN/your preferred CFW.
  3. Open MultiMan (mmCM it should be called when it's installed).
  4. Plugin your flash drive.
  5. Insert the game disc and wait a moment for the game to pop up.
  6. Press Triangle.
  7. Select "Copy".
  8. Select your inserted flash drive.
  9. Wait for the game files to be done ripping to flash drive.
  10. Transfer it to PC by plugging the flash drive into PC and moving the files out of the flash drive.
  11. Now you can free roam into the files of the game (files should be in [FOLDER WITH GAME NAMED AS THE FOLDER]/PS3_GAME/USRDIR).

For PSN Store Downloaded Games

  1. Click here and search for the PSN Store game you want to explore the files of. Note the ID of that game (it'll be crucial for a later step).
  2. Open mmCM (MultiMAN).
  3. Scroll left until you see File Manager / mmOS, and click that.
  4. Navigate your cursor with the analog stick and click PS3 Root (not on PC, PS3! not to confuse you!).
  5. Click dev_hdd0, then press Game. (This is where the game ID comes into play.)
  6. Find the folder that shows that ID.
  7. Press O, then click Copy.
  8. Go out of the PS3's HDD directory.
  9. Go to your USB flash drive's directory.
  10. Press O and click Paste.
  11. When it's done moving the game to the flash drive, unplug the flash drive.
  12. Plug the flash drive in your PC and roam away freely in the game's files to find unused content!
