Tutorial: How to Get COSad Awesome Black Ops working on v3.41 (Jailbroken PS3 Console)!

You must login or register to view this content.


Hello Guys and Girls,

When COSad Awesome Black Ops finally arrived in the stores it was quickly found out that it required v3.50 to play!

JonahUK pointed out that when the EBOOT.BIN was viewed with a hex editor it showed it was compiled with the 3.40 SDK meaning it was debug update time!!!

I extracted the EBOOT.BIN file and PRAM.SFO from the 1.02 debug update modified them and made a pack here:

Mod Pack: You must login or register to view this content.[/u]

Here is a tutorial to get the game working:

(make sure you backup all your files first incase you do something wrong)

Step One:

download the files and go to where you put your game and edit your pram.sfo to say 3.40 with PS3SFOEdit (included In pack)

Step Two

Update the game to 1.02 using the retail update for your region.

Title ID - BLES01032: You must login or register to view this content.[/u]

Step 3

after your update has finished, open comgenie or ftp and go to:
dev_hdd0/GAME/"Blackops"/PS3_GAME and put the eboot in the pack here

Step 4

go to
dev_hdd0/GAME/"Blackops"/PS3_GAME/USRDIR

now if you have the BLES01032 version just use the SFO.PRAM file inc in my pack and place it in that directory overwriting the old one.

if you have another version of the game use PS3SFOEdit to edit your sfo to say 3.40 in advanced edit. SAVE IT then replace it.

Step 5

double check everything, Then play.

The next part comes from hunter128 from here and seems to only apply if you have run the game previously and been prompted to update.

After you install the pkg launch a FTP server and go to /dev_hdd0/mms/db/ and search a file called metadata_db_hdd open it in a hex editor and search 3.50, and change to 3.41 Happy


Big thanks to tehreaper for testing this and confirming it working on external and internal HDD!

Also it seems that multiplayer freezes at the moment. but campaign and zombies works fine!

This is the way that works atm im sure there will probably be a simpler way soon!

Poof.... Modded lobbies, ruined game.


The MW2 method requires you to be on the current fw so no not exactly...
