(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hello fellow hackers. I may have hacked Dead Island on PS3. I am not for sure yet. I will be telling you what I've done so far, and what needs to be done. This has been a bit complicated so far. I first had to use my actual game disc to get to /dev_bdvd/PS3_GAME/USRDIR. Inside of USRDIR there is a EBOOT.BIN and a directory named DI (Which stands for Dead Island). DI is where you can modify files. I won't go into the DI folder for now. But I will say there is file named Data0.pak. Inside of the Data0.pak file there is tons of directories and files. But the one I am looking at is default_levels.xml. I used Notepad to open up the default_levels.xml. Inside there is basically "dvars/cvars". Here's a few pictures:

What I have looked at and edited are the following codes:
<prop n="MaxHealth" v="999" /> (Edited from 100)
<prop n="BaseMaxHealth" v="999" /> (Edited from 100)
<prop n="BaseCriticalHealth" v="30" /> (Not edited, may lower)
<prop n="BluntWpnDurabilityLoss" v="-999" /> (Edited from 1.0)
<prop n="RangedWpnDurabilityLoss" v="-999" /> (Edited from 1.0)
<prop n="CutWpnDurabilityLoss" v="-999" /> (Edited from 1.0)
<prop n="BulletWpnDurabilityLoss" v="-999" /> (Edited from 1.0)

What are the effects of these you may ask?
Semi Godmode
No weapon durability loss

I will update you guys with anything else I find. This is just a "maybe" hacked thread guys, and I am not for sure if this will effect anything. It's worth a shot though.

What I am currently doing: Read Below...

My Questions:
1. What does - <level id="1"> mean? Could it be the character? Or is it your character's level?

Update 1: You must login or register to view this content. :fa: It's getting there :p
Update 2: You must login or register to view this content. It's finished extracting from the disc. Now beginning to put the files into BLUS30790
Update 3: This doesn't look too good :cry: You must login or register to view this content. It didn't copy the main Data.pak files. I'll try to re upload them once the whole thing finishes transferring.
Update 4: You must login or register to view this content. I could re upload the .pak files that were not uploading correctly on the first transfer. I am now replacing the Data0.pak with the one I modded. After I do that I will data transfer and hope for the best.
Update 5: Well, after all that hard work, it gave me a stoopid "bluetooth" error.
Update 6: I may have found another way to hack it! Will update once I try!
Final Update: Sorry guys, I have tried everything that I know. Read what I've been doing below, and see if any of you all can do anything with it

This is what I have: You must login or register to view this content.
This is what it should be: You must login or register to view this content.
I have tried this varies ways:
1. Extracted the necessary files from the disc
2. Made a backup, and extracted the files.
3. Data transferring from my 4.00 PS3 to my 3.55 PS3 (Hoping it would put the files into the game, but it didn't)
So basically what you need to find out is how to get the DI folder into BLUS30790. ***Like stated above: I did try putting the files into the directory manually, but it resulted in a error on startup. Maybe someone can try to hack that EBOOT.BIN? I'm not good with EBOOT's*** If you have any suggestions: Hit Me Up! I will more than likely try them.

What you need to look at if your trying to mod it:
You need to go to the directory: DI > open Data0.pak (I use 7-Zip)
Inside of Data0.pak there is MANY things. Navigate to: Data > Skills > default_level.html (Open it with NotePad)
I found that there is many things other than the default_level.html that you can edit. Inside of default_level.html there is many "dvars" You can edit them to your liking, like I edited the ones stated above. I hope this helps for anyone looking into hacking Dead Island like I did. WARNING: if you data transfer you WILL loose all of your: Stats, Characters, Weapons,

Who told you that? And who would these "few person" be? Do not believe everything what others say

I work with ZOMBIEKILLAH and Max88, they both can decrypt retail bin and self files and have proven it to me. Max even has a video.

You should look into the eboot. I don't work with eboot's.

LOL this makes me laugh. I explain this for you. New games are encrypted with new keyset. The decryption keys are in the newer firmwares. We don't have these keys and Max88 can not decrypt these retail selfs.
What you probably mean is that Max88 can decrypt NPDRM selfs encrypted with geohot's keypair (make_self_npdrm) but that's not hard.

This eboot is a NPDRM. I'm not for sure about the keypair for it though. It requires firmware 3.60 or 3.66 to run. I can't remember :p

ok, i just didnt know if you backed it up or not. thanks

Yeah I've tried all of the ways I know of.

i just might get this game now

Hope you find something out of this, Dead Islands pretty good but its getting boring to me now. Some hacks might liven things up
