(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hello everyone, I've been waiting a long time to finally do this and I just found out my ps3 is capable(made before 2011) so I'm ordering my e3 flasher this week xD. I just have a few basic questions like are there any free mod menus out there or will I have to buy one?(I'm poor) and if I do have to purchase what else will I need? I've been up for the past couple nights doing my research so just a quick little walk through should lead me on my way...

There are paid and free menus for most games. The difference is that for gta the paid menus get more updates and are stable from freezing.some free menus are good like gnks mod menu is a really good free menu.

Also for gta u can use something known as script bypass which is a mod manager with any where from 2 to 30 mods .

Also you might want to consider swapping from cex to Dex firmware. Dex has more mod support and dex mods usually have more features.

To get the most out of gta might want to also consider going from blus (north America region) to bles (EU region ) gta as bles gta has more mod support as well.

Hombrew you will need
You will need these homebrew apps for your ps3 now if you do switch to Dex ps3 I recommend installing all of them.

Psn patch
Sen enabler
Psn ninga
Multiman
CCAPI 2.60

These can be found on brewology site.

Also another difference between paid and free menus is that paid menus have

Key.txt
And some have
Settings.ini

If you purchase a paid menu the key along with the sprx and if it has the settings.ini file would go in dev/hdd0/tmp

but free menus you don't have to worry about those files.

So yeah that should get you going. Like I said try to be on Dex and Bles gta5 and you Will have access to better mods

Okay thank you man I appreciate it, I've learned about most of the things you mentioned but it's always good to be fully sure

I figured I'd get the best menu by actually paying for one lol, can you do money drop with gnks though?

And If I switch to BLES will I still be able to play with people from north america? (friends)

One more quick question, I should probably make a separate account on gta for modding right? I also saw someone say about switching back and forth between CID's while signing into gta online...

Thread Moved to PS3 Mods Questions and Inquiries.

If you switch to BLES, you can still play with your friends.

I'd recommend making a new account because if you get banned on an important account, all of the money you spent and everything will be gone.

If you're looking for a free menu, then GNXKS all in one will be just fine for you.
It has pretty much everything you'll need. Along with the mod loader it comes with for extra menus.

And yes, you can drop money on it

I've made a thread You must login or register to view this content. which explains all of this... as well as listings some mods which are free. There are several people that have created free mods. Also to make sure you buy the right downgrading kit what is your CECH-XXXX number?

CECH-2501A that would be the nor flasher if I'm correct(hopefully my research paid off lol) It's the slim made August 2010

Has this question been answered?

Nah but am I right bro?
