I am a Game Developer
----------------------------------------------------------------
The self Files:
Encrypted by Sony
I believe using There own type of encryption method and these files are also compressed.
The ff files:
Encrypted by Treyarch
Using Rsa to encrypt. There is a private and public key involved. THese files are also compressed.
The SVG files:
Encrypted by another company paid by Treyarch.
These files contain senstivity, button layout, clantag, class names, and some other stuff.
The Server files:
Hashed by Treyarch
The hash algorthm or whatever you wish to call it is called Tiger. See below what Hashing is.
What Are these files?
-------------------------------------------------------
The Self Files are exectuables that run the code. And The game contains the code. Most of the game is run from the disk but the self is kind of like a few extra exe's for the game to run at various times.
The ff files is full of GSC code that is run during the game. Hence the name GSC which I think means Game Script Code. So This is kindof like LUA scripting if you know what that is.
The Server files are actually not permanently on the ps3. The server sends a request for data and then the ps3 sends back hashed code. The server just read's the hashed code. It is not like encryption decryption because it's not decrypted. Just read as a as and the files that say tiger and stuff in the ps3 just tells the ps3 how to hash the files..
What is Encryption
--------------------------------------------------------
Now Encryption basically means that you just change the text to numbers and letters and letter's which is not readable. Now usually it's encrypted using a key and then the console decryptes the files to run them.
--------------------------------------------------------
Please Correct me if I am wrong on any one of these things.

Very well organized thread, and thanks for including info that also helped organized my thoughts.
For now I think everyone should try to get he .self mods going first since it's going to be awhile before anyone cracks the fast files.

Correct. Also you need to say that The RSA has 2 keys, one public, one private. The first is stored somewhere on the gamefiles because it's the one needed to read the files. The second, is private, like it's name suggests (
) and only Treyarch knows it.

Treayarch, TheUnk0wn, and Hunter12, I can't see any other way that he done the XP mod unless it is the .SELF editing.
