Just to save your time, you do know that the HDD method doesn't work...

It's checksummed, your getting a black screen because the checksum doesn't match. The checksum isn't stored on the HDD. So you cant exactly change it, even if it was. How would you find out the checksum algo?

You can view and access the files via the HDD but not change them. Everyone seems to think because of a post on PS3-NEWS that it has something to do with the HDD. Right now, I'm just tired of reading all this.

The method me and Hunter currently use will probably be getting patched in 3.40 (sigh), meaning we would have kept biggest secret going.

Well, If you found something and didn't want people to know, would you tell them they were off-track or sit quietly and let them find out that it doesn't work.

I told everyone it didn't work because they were close to finding out that it doesn't work. Rather than let everyone squabble about it not working for a few months I decided that I would verify that 'IT DOES NOT WORK' to give people who probably deserve to know how to do it a chance of figuring it out rather than them getting confused in the squabble.

For those that are wise, I've told you your on the wrong track, now find the right one. I'm NOT trying to stop people from doing it. I'm just simply NOT releasing a 'spoon-feed' tutorial. The people who figure it out themselves should be the kind of people that think. "Hey, I just worked my ass off to do this, why should I be a slave to all the lazy people that can't do it, by releasing it."

Firstly:



So guys, I suggest you stop downloading ps3 hdd studio and stop buying sata cables because this is not the way. If you guys want to figure this out, your gonna have to find a way to re-write the offsets of the patch to the right places on the hdd and figure a way of getting the edited patch back onto the ps3. Also I suggest starting with CoD4 or W@W, as MW2 seems to be harder.. also hunter did not begin with MW2..
