Tired of using Cobra's tool to patch your ISO backups? Check out this brand new tool by CaptainCPS-X!
Ever since the release of Cobra custom firmware, ISO-formatted backups have caused a major shift in the PS3 scene. Instead of dealing with complicated file structures, we can now enjoy the luxury of one elegant image handling all the gameplay work. In the past we had to create our games with Cobra's GenPS3ISO to make titles boot, but now CaptainCPS-X has made a new tool that allows us to use any ISO generation tool we like for PS3, PS2, and even PSP. Check out a portion of the release notes below!
Changelog:
v1.01 (November 9, 2013)
- Fixed typo, now all references to “vervose” are correctly named “verbose”.
- Removed accidental duplicate macro definition on “psiso_tool.h”.
Readme:
PS ISO Tool (Supports PS1 / PS2 / PS3 / PSP disc images) (CaptainCPS-X, 2013)
This tool will parse any of the supported PlayStation ISO / BIN. The module will
also check for valid (ISO9660 / MODE1 / 2048) or (MODE2 / 2352).
When used as library for an application this can:
- [PS1 / PS2] Get game Title ID from SYSTEM.CNF and obtain Title from a text database.
- [PS3 / PSP] Get game Title and ID from the PARAM.SFO inside the ISO (no need for text database).
- Titles gets automatically converted from UTF-8 to ASCII.
- Provide a function to patch PS3 ISOs created with different applications than
GenPS3iso (Ex. ImgBurn, PowerISO).
When used as application:
- Users can quickly patch any specified PS3 ISO created with different application than
GenPS3iso (Ex. ImgBurn, PowerISO).
Note: Patching will make the ISO valid for the PS3 system, if you try to mount
it without patching, the system will not detect it.
Usage:
ps_isotool [opt] [in]
Example 1 – Patching a PS3 game ISO:
ps_isotool –ps3 –verbose –patch “C:PS3ISOMyPS3ISO.iso”
Example 2 – Displaying info from ISOs:
ps_isotool –ps1 –verbose “C:PSXISOMyPS1ISO.bin”
ps_isotool –ps2 –verbose “C:PS2ISOMyPS2ISO.iso”
ps_isotool –ps3 –verbose “C:PS3ISOMyPS3ISO.iso”
ps_isotool –psp –verbose “C:PSPISOMyPSPISO.iso”
Note: If you don’t specify –verbose then only the Title ID and Title will be displayed.
PS: This already have been implemented into “Simple NTFS ISO Mounter” and tested, I wrote all the code to be portable and usable on both windows / ps3 / etc. More nice stuff will be implemented to these tools in the future.
