Well first of all, you need a little knowledge in C++ and GSC Coding.

So now if you have a PS3 patch there are 2 Ways to edit a Patch.

The ways:

  • De- and Recompressing the Patch (Takes long)
  • Convert the Patch to xbox, edit it in FFViewer than convert it back (fastest way)


De- and Compressing the Patch

So all you have to do is to follow this tutorial You must login or register to view this content.

Just follow the tutorial, De-Compress the patch, than open the 00000002.dat in NotePad++ or in NotePad. Than after you have edited the patch just Compress it back.

Converting the Patch to XBOX

Go to this thread You must login or register to view this content. and Download the Program.

Just open your PS3 MW2 in the Program than press on PS3 to XBOX. Now the program will make you a new file called ps3-to-xbox.ff or something similar to this, this is your new XBOX Patch, which you can edit in FFViewer.

Now download FF Viewer (here is the download: You must login or register to view this content. ) Now just drag your XBOX Patch into the program and now you can edit any GSC with it.

After you have edited the patch you need to convert the patch from xbox to ps3 and you are done.

Little Tip: Follow these 2 Tutorials, they will help you to edit the patch and they explain very well what to do Smile
