IRISMAN VS extract-xiso

Irisman download

When you jailbreak the must have apps are WebmanMod (general CFW/HEN console management) and Irisman (mostly for BluRay discs backup). Basically that's all you'd ever need.

"downgrade" (old method for exploit some game consoles) or new marketed web "term" (thanks youtubers, other forums etc) is not required anymore (almost couple years now) and for multiregion all ps3 are multiregion for ps3,ps2,ps1,psp after CFW or HEN exploits (with little exeption in running ps1 pal video modes easy bypasssed with irishman or managunz homebrew) , for ps3 fats - BC is recomended a CFW (recomended exploit / hack / enable homebrew) use official page for lastest development maintained for developers and collaborators http://ps3xploit.com/ , till now all ps3 machines in 4.89 can be exploited with HFW (Hen) exploit/hack/homebrew enabler, but in your friend case ps3 fat is recomended a CFW like CFW evilnat, like you comment he is in HEN 4.89, till time comes, check next weeks ps3xploit when "buguerville" update bgtoolset tools for install CFW in 4.89 (now in internal testing) incompactible machines (like all ps3 FATS) meanwhille for PS2 iso load try irishman 4.88 https://github.com/aldostools/IRISMAN or managunz https://github.com/Zarh/ManaGunZ (unknow if work in ps BC machines with HEN), not use ps2clasics converts pkg or psn ps2 classics because it will use ps2 "software emulator = low compactibility bugs black screen and higth risk overheat that models etc" keep in mind hardware ps2 chips are only available in ps3 fat models looking back serial CECH"A/B/C/E" (20gb/60gb USA-JAPAN only) if have another "letter " or is EUR model it means not have ps2 hardware chips anymore so in this case ps3 will only use ps2 "software" emulation for this use webmamod plugin from autor here https://github.com/aldostools/webMAN-MOD ps2CONFIGXXX, ps2classics placeholder then use recomended tools for encryt your .iso to .BIN.ENC (read wiki for more instrucctions).

Using the tool: extract-xiso

Download Extract-Xiso , the download option will be on the right side of the screen under “stable release” and extract it somewhere (same folder as your Xbox roms is recommended).

You can download it from the megathread and use extract-xiso to convertit (extract-xiso -r game.iso).

I use extract-xiso: https://github.com/XboxDev/extract-xiso

"Mod only" requires you to hexedit your games. This page has a list of hex codes to search for and then the string that you'll replace them with. To perform this, you'll need to extract the iso into a game folder, and then you'll edit the default.xbe file in the root folder. I used extract-xiso and extract-xiso-gui to do this. Drag and drop your iso onto the extract-xiso exe. One you've done your hexedits (I recommend HxD), then you can use the gui to click "create iso" and then select a folder. You can actually do all of this with just extract-xiso, but I was lazy and didn't feel like punching in dos commands to rebuild all my isos.
