PS3 Saved Games
These files are stored on the PS3 HDD (hdd0/home/00000001/savedata/your game folder), and can be copied over to a media through USB or similar. There are two types, those which are encrypted+signed, and those which aren't neither. This allows modifications/cheats for some games, yes. When copied, they are put inside these folder called "PS3\SAVEDATA\", followed by their Title ID. I'd like to call the encrypted+signed saves as protected saves.
Save Game Directory Name Format
All games define their own sub folder(s) based on the following pattern based in on information from PS3 Secrets, thanks
standard pattern parts: ABCDEF
A==> Media Format B=Bluray, S=Dvd
B==> C= First Party , L= licenced
C==> Country code A=Asia , E=Europe , J=Japan , U= US
D==> D= Demo, S= game , M=?
E==> Unique 5 digit game Start ID
F==> Unique Game Creaters define the remainder of the format
Directory Structure
| File | Description/Purpose |
|---|---|
| PARAM.SFO | Various information about the title. This one is never encrypted, although it's always signed. |
| PARAM.PFD | Signatures of all the files if the save is protected. The signature method is still unknown (hash-size 0x60). |
| ICON0.PNG | PNG image containing the image to be displayed in XMB. dimensions 320 x 176, 72 dpi, 32 bit, 1 frame |
| ICON1.PNG | PNG image containing the image to be displayed in XMB. dimensions 1000 x 560, 72 dpi, 32 bit, 1 frame |
| SND0.AT3 | (optional) Sound file to be played. |
