Ok, I have been getting this a lot. Its mainly from people who are ignorant, won’t listen, or just don’t understand. So to clarify what you can, and can NOT do, and the reason for it, continue to read…

On MW2 1.11, anyone who knew how could “edit patches”, make all this stuff and run on MW2 freely, and play with others while doing so. During this time, derektrotter, blackstorm, and elitemossy were among the most popular “patch makers”. When people make patches, they were actually programming. Call of Duty uses GSC for its scripting language. That stands for Game Script Coding.

IW were fed up with this, and it took a year to get them to fix it. When MW2 1.12 came out, it was aimed at stopping this once and for all.

To accomplish this, they put a copy of the patch_mp.ff in the self executable. The self is basically the game program, like a xex on xbox, a exe on windows, and a elf on Wii. What the new security basically did was do a checksum (google to learn) on the script being loaded, and a checksum on the one inside the self. If they didn’t match, the game would over-ride it and use the internal one.

What makes you think that. Why are they termed CFG mods, not GSC mods? GSC is game scripting. CFG files are sets of game commands. They can set game settings as well as numerous other actions. GSC has logic because it scripting, where-as CFG does not..

CFG mods simply work b/c IW are retarded and overlooked them when implementing the new security..

Nice patch btw, someone is going to use it for me since i update No

In your opinion, how are do you think it would be to obtain the keys for the .self?


Ask geohot or another ps3 dev. I know what would be involved in doing that, and I can NOT do it by any means myself. Its best for some of the other low-level firmware hackers that have knowledge of the structure, lv's, and internals work it out.

You need skills in many areas to pull off what these guys do. Many take them for granted. I can say many are really smart and have my respect. I can understand a lot of what they say, but other stuff is just at guess.

So if we got they keys for the self, it could possibly unlock that firmware, though I am just thinking out-load here..

Owell, im not too worried, i mean i love all the homebrew and all that but owell
I mean it also sucks that IW basically made a checksum with the .self, but it kinda restored the game now that not every 12 year old can use an aimbot and god mode


Actually I know things about MW2 that no one realized. The hilarious thing is its right in front of peoples faces. I am also aware of a force host that could destroy the game, which I am not giving out anytime soon. I know of a way to switch teams as well (not a DVAR).View my blog for an example of some of my findings with assistances from a select few :P.

Um yea going on old servers is nothing new. Though why the hell are you using resistance? The methods I have released are MUCH easier and better. I am shocked RFOM hasn't been patched..
