(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Confirmed it doesn't work for signing homebrew applications. I tried to unpackage the FTP server using unpkg and it said it didn't recognize the .PKG type.

If it helps ANYONE the exact error was "unknown pkg type 7f504b47"

EDIT: So now we're working on some stuff, trying to basically get the tools to work for Homebrew Applications. Links to the tools we're using will be below if you wanna help.

It includes the compiled PS3tools (Tools for signing and editing the .PUP files), the PS3 signing keys and PSL1GHT (PS3 Source Development Kit used for compiling homebrew applications. NOTE: The other applications that PSL1GHT depends on will NOT be included in the .zip, but I'll provide the download links for them as well)

There probably is but I mean some people decide to keep it hidden for awhile to be sure there arent any bugs

Cool, let us know if you manage to do anything with it.

If we manage to sign the FTP Server I'll post a full tutorial on how to do everything from install the CFW to putting the FTP Server on and possibly a tutorial on how to sign packages, if I ever figure it out XD

That is, if someone doesn't beat me to posting a tut..

Yeah, I was doing it, but its so slow making/signing the self with the new binaries which also sign it, I have the keys and everything and use this command to "compile":
    ./makeself app 355 1 01000002 101_00000_01000003 devkit eboot.elf EBOOT355.BIN

which is to sign the EBOOT.BIN and is using this syntax:
    ./makeself [type] [version suffix] [version] [vendor id] [auth id] [sdk type] [elf] [self]

then the next step it to put the EBOOT.BIN besides the other files on a signed PKG using the following syntax:
    pkg [ket suffix] [contents] [filename.pkg]


PS: If it doesn't finish "compiling" today or it does it wrong i'll just go to sleep (It's 3AM where I live) and continue working on this tomorrow Winky Winky - By the way, the modded firmware (don't like to call it custom) of KaKaRoTo allows you to install retail pkg, the problem is that they don't work, so I suppose you want the FTP server to install MW2 patches, you can put it on a .pkg and it will successfully install :rolleyes:


thanks for having a go Smile
hopefully it compiles Happy *NOW GO TO BED*

itz 8:07pm where I live ^,^

edit: EVERYONE GIVE +REP TO ZERO Smile
