Features:

- Debug non-fself & fself in real time.

 vsh.self for example can be debugged in rte, or any game with non debug eboot.

- Debug kernel in real time

 lv2_kernel.self and lv1.self

Classic functions:

getProcessMemory

setProcessMemory

shutdown/reboot

work with Wireless connection

bypass exec pages writing restriction

bypass lv2 memory protection

peek/poke lv1 and lv2

setConsoleID at anytime/anywhere

setConsoleLed

ringBuzzer

getTemperature

VSH module loading

notify

How to install CCAPI

 Just download and run this pkg on your ps3.
 It will tell you to reboot, and it's done. You only need to do this once.

How to uninstall CCAPI

 Just run again the pkg.

Is it risky

 In the worst case, you could need to reinstall your firmware.

VSH module loading:

create a plugins directory and put all your sprx plugins into it.

 /dev_usb000/plugins
 /dev_usb000/plugins/prx_name1.sprx
 /dev_usb000/plugins/prx_name2.sprx

All of the sprx that are present in this folder, will be loaded at ps3 boot.

Important:

 If some games refuse to work, just don't use plugins, delete plugins folder from /dev_usb000

How to convert a tool from 2.00 to 2.50:

 1) Delete any CCAPI.dll in the same folder than the software
 2) Put the PS3Lib 4.3 in the same folder than the software
 3) Use the installer to install CCAPI 2.50 on your PC (you may need to reboot your pc at the end)
 4) Install the CCAPI 2.50 pkg on your PS3

CCAPI 2.00

Installation

When installed, CCAPI (the ps3 application) creates a config file (/dev_flash/sys/internal/config.cfg) in which some data, depending on the console, is stored. This file has a size of 240 (0xF0) bytes.

Commands

When calling a ccapi function, a packet containing a command id is sent to the ps3. The ps3 then analyzes the packet and makes a switch on the command id.
