Post: [1337 Question] How can I read / open .PKG files? (Mw2 Patch File)
06-01-2010, 04:32 AM #1
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Me a my crew, we have tried a bunch of stuff - from opening with Mac, to running with Linux (Linux in a Laptop). The file is some what encrypted or unreadable to both systems (Also... Windows can not read .pkg).

I got one man, working to install Other OS into his PS3 to try to open the file there, and get it into several PCs for evaluations of codes and the files inside the patch.

Also, we have looked all over the net for .pkg decryption and we have found couple... but all of them say the file is not encrypted, or the file is corrupted. After couple of research we found that a .pkg file is a .tar.gz file, witch is a little more common. We converted the Mw2 into .tar.gz but no luck as well; no encryption seems to be found.

If any of you guys have any help to provide us (GOOD INFO), we mostly like give you a favor back. And that depends on what we can reach with this patch editing. How far can we go? As far as the Xbox goes today...


Pleas no retarded comments like: "Just open with WinRAR", or "Open with Win-7".

You can then let the PS3 extract it for you then just download what you see and mod it. I'm guessing it's like a PC setup where there are temporary file used during installation. That is the only explanation I have for you. I can't imagine the file isn't encrypted. No, it has to have some encryption and allow me to just say that the easiest way would be to let the PS3 do it for you.

PS: Another OS will just corrupt the file, you have to be able to put it back together kid.


Well how could they have made the file then, if they couldn't do it with the computer?

Specif computers running scripts that are only compatible with the PS3. But I doubt. They encrypt it with C++ and we are expecting the codes inside the .pgk to be similar to COD 4.

I don't see no direct links. Also, before you start mumbling your mis-spelled words at me, pleas read your comment I replied. You said I can get the links from Playstation News.. I don't see how.

Also, why are you cursing? There is no need for such.

And last, if you do now much more about this than me, pleas try me. Because as long as I know, I was the first guy that who set in a chair and said "Hey...!? How come no one have mod a Ps3 Game Patch?". I got banned out of this forum because of the black forums out there leaching every where, and apparently some what way they got me with them when they came down making banned for no reason - but coming back... I posted with my older account on NGU Premium, that we users might be able to edit the patch by accessing their HDD with their PC. I was right. Few days ago Hunter12 was successfully able to inject or edit his patch and put it back into his PS3 (My guess is inject. Because if he knew how to edit the patch, he would have made mod XP lobby). And what did you do? If you knew more than me, you would have probably be over Hunter12 selling XP Lobby for $100 right now. And what are you doing? Posting useless post on other legit hacker threads saying how you better than them.
