| ===Copy Protection Flag===
| |
| The ones without "Copy Protection" can be copyed to an externall USB storage device (by pressing triangle over his icon in XMB with the option "copy" of the side menu)
| |
| | |
| [[PARAM.SFO#ATTRIBUTE_in_SaveData|Copy protection]] can be removed from a Game Save by changing a flag in the ATTRIBUTE of his PARAM.SFO. This can be done when PARAM.PFD doesnt contains the signature of PARAM.SFO (only a few old games)
| |
| | |
| ===Games which are unprotected===
| |
| There are two types of possible protections:
| |
| | |
| *One possible encryption in the files generated by the game that is not mandatory and depends of the developers of the game.
| |
| | |
| *And other protection based on signatures stored in [[PARAM.PFD]] generated and managed by the system. This file supervises signatures of other files of the folder, the list of files supervised is not fixed and again... it depends of the developers of the game, but usually [[PARAM.SFO]] is inside this list | |
| | |
| This allows modifications/cheats for some games wich files are not encrypted, and not supervised by [[PARAM.PFD]]
| |
| | |
| * MotorStorm (protected with CRC32 checksum)
| |
| * Call Of Duty 4 (hacked saves can be found on the internet)
| |
| * Battlefield: Bad Company
| |
| * Assassin's Creed
| |
| * Blazing Angels: Squadrons of WWII

| ===PS1 Classics Save Game in internall HDD===
| |
| Stored in slots inside a "PS1 virtual memory card" in PS3 format, games can use one slot or severall ones, each slot has a name that identifies it (the first one is at offset 0x64 inside virtual_memcard.VM1)
| |
| dev_hdd0
| |
| |--- savedata
| |
| |--- vmc
| |
| |--- virtual_memcard.VM1
| |
| | |
| ===PS1 Classics Save Game in externall USB===
| |
| When exporting to a "standard" USB device the Save Games are converted to "slots" in PS3 format. The name of the exported file is the identifier of the slot when it was inside a virtual_memcard.VM1
| |
| | |
| dev_usb0
| |
| |--- PS3
| |
| |--- EXPORT
| |
| |--- PSV
| |
| |--- virtual_memcard_slot_ID.PSV
| |
| | |
| ===PS1 Classics Save Game in externall PSP===
| |
| To export to PSP first is needed to register the PSP as a remote play device (in PS3 settings menu), and activate the USB mode (in PSP XMB)
| |
| | |
| Then, from the [[Memory Card Utility (PS/PS2)]] you can browse the slots inside the virtual_memcards, by pressing triangle over an slot and selecting the option "copy" the PS3 gives two options, one is an icon of your PSP identifyed by his nick, by selecting the PSP icon the PS3 displays this message: ''"Do you want to convert this data for use with the PSP system and then copy it?. If you select [No] the data will be copied without being converted"''
| |
| | |
| You can continue your game from PSP to PS3 under differents game formats such as cso/iso and continue on PS3 after transfer of your savedata if the game share the same DiscID. See: [[Emulation]]

| |--- <SAVEDATA_DIRECTORY>
| |
| |--- ICON0.PNG
| |
| |--- PARAM.SFO <----- CATEGORY "MS"
| |
| |--- SCEVMC0.VMP <----- Virtual Memory Card 0
| |
| |--- SCEVMC1.VMP <----- Virtual Memory Card 1
| |
| | |
| *When the game is installed in PS3 it contains a "SAVEDATA" folder stored with the rest of the game files, only used by the PS3 to generate Save Games in PSP format
| |
| | |
| *This "SAVEDATA" folder used as a source contains a PARAM.SFO (with CATEGORY "MS" memory stick, and his SAVEDATA_DIRECTORY where it will be installed when exported to PSP), an ICON0.PNG (in 80x80 pixels) and two virtual_memcard.VMP (with empty slots). All in PSP format, never updated, and not intended to store Save Games, only to export them
