(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); hi all i backed up my most played games, and a couple of borrowed ones, and im being told there is an update for a couple, the online part dont bother me cause i wont play a backup online, but one of the games has an update for trophies, so would i be ok if i updated it by pressing yes when it asks or is there any other way i could download the update and put it on my ps3?

thanks

and to add the update is for a borrowed one so i no longer have the blu ray

If you're on a CFW that allows backups to run (kmeaw, Waninkoko etc) then yes that would be fine.

Alternatively if you have the BLES code for the game you can download the latest patch for it on to your PS3 here You must login or register to view this content. .

thanks, i will give it a try, i got a backup from ps3-iso a while ago and it had a update folder with a pup in it so i wasnt sure if that was the update ready to install? eliminating the need to go online

Which CFW are you on?

Because you only need to mess about with files if you are on GeoHotz. I'm on kmeaw's and I've never had any problems with updating games I'm running off of a backup manager.

Try with a disc aswell as discless. Also don't direct boot from the managers.

If you are using an old backup manager then make sure you run lv2 patcher beforehand.

If all else fails then try to recopy the game to your HDD.

Every time you reboot your PS3 and want to run a backup game you have to use lv2 patcher, not just once and your done.
