readme

From the attached README:

What's it?
It's a simple tool to extract files and info from a PS3 TROPHY.TRP file (you can find it in any PS3 games with trophies support, browsing in the /PS3_GAME/TROPDIR/NPXXXXXXX_XX/ directory.). The TROPHY.TRP file contains all PNGs thumbnails of the trophies and the SFMs (XML coded files with all info about trophies, such as code, name, category and description) in every supported language.

Usage
Simply open a terminal and type: "./trpex /path/your/TROPHY.TRP /output/folder" It works in any Unix machine. If you get a "permission denied" error then give trpex file the execution rights using "chmod +x trpex".

Sources
In the release there is only a Unix version of the tool. However I inserted the source code in the release package. So you can compile it for Windows and MAC OS if you need. Source Code is under GPLv3 license.

Thanks
To my girlfriend for her patience.

PS3 firmware 4.30 supports displaying PSVita trophies and identifyes them assigning the icon ... is very probable there is also support for PS4 trophies with the icon

Is probable the tropy data from "other sony consoles" is copyed to PS3 internall HDD when syncing with PSN servers ONLY in "one way direction" (from PSN servers ---> to all consoles of the user). In other words... the only trophy data accepted by the servers is the one that was generated in this same console (for security reasons)

• Is unknown how the support for this fileformats is implemented in PS3, actually they had 2 choices:
  • Duplicate the trophy data for every console... and store it in PS3 in PS3 format (in separated folders)
  • Add some flag or identifyer in the standard PS3 fileformats to make appear in XMB the icon that identifyes the trophy installation compatible with "other sony consoles"

• Note both images was used by sony to promote the 2 different trophies implementation, are separated by 4 years, contains the same games, with the same percentage of unlocked trophies (so initially one can think are a bit photoshopped). But in the newer one the wave is different, there are small icons identifying each trophy, and the trophies has been moved to the
• This probably means the apps that appears in the screenshot ("travel the solar system", "pluto attacks", and maybe the others) are internall apps used to betatest trophies (candidates to a rare TITLE_ID)
