Post: Is it safe for me to use FTP on my FAT PS3?
08-04-2011, 07:28 AM #1
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I am just so sick of seeing an awesome save file i want, and need only to read "Requires FTP/File Manager to swap files" i was told using the FTP and PS3 Custom Firmware could land me in jail plus a ban... i keep getting mixed opinions on the issue.

But i see lots of you guys using this and seem to be doing great so i want to know if it's safe to use and how do i install it? i have a FAT PS3 40GIG blue ray un-modded thanks.

I really want the Dead Rising 2 [PLATINUM] - [TESTED-WORKS]!
That zombie 72k trophy is driving me insane lol i have all of them but that one!!

First You need a ps3 on Firmware 3.55 or Lower and yes It´s secure to use Ftp Server on your ps3 :carling:

I just wanted to make sure i thought that guy was in jail or did they let him out? I don't know i did not follow his videos and stuff, i am not looking to install this FTP for bad things i was told i could install all kinds of things like Brew? it plays burnt games/apps or something, that's not what i want it for i would rather buy the game and support the maker.

I just want to be able to edit my save files so i can get a little help once in a while like extra cash on rdr or maybe my last trophy on dr2, i always felt like the save file protection was bs i paid for the ps3 i bought the game i should be able to edit it if i want, like i can edit borderlands.

So i think i will be ok, like you said they are dealing with dangerous hackers i am just a noob fish lol so i hope i wont have any "had fines etc and taken to court" issues.
Can you point me to a link with the best version of FTP i want to make sure i get the right version for my PS3 thanks.
