OK some time ago somebody has been asking for a save idk who...

this save is completed on normal. doing in hard is not so hard, so this trophy you must get it.

i think the most dificult trophies are those of getting stars

this save have 63 star or some.

to obtain all the star trophies you only do 1 run, it doesnt matter your finish time, it will give you all those trophies

for others i dont know i cant testing now cuz i dont have the game anymore.


use. FTP method LOL
NOTE*** the save wont save ignore that the file wont get corrupt.
ANOTHER NOTE*** the PARAM.SFO has been taken out, copy all the files to yours

cheers::

yeah, its the fu**ing speed runs

let me know if you found something to this theory...

Well im going do some more searching tomorrow but since the files are .xxx extensions that would make them need to be decrypted probably with the unreal engine editor. And since the xbox 360 version is hacked and the files are similar it shouldn't be too difficult a process to find the correct files and probably decrypt them. And in the ini file it has a place where the time limit is listed and can be modified. But one of the .xxx files checks for modifications to the ini file. So as they did find a way to bypass this on the 360 it should also be doable on the ps3. Ill see what else I can find tomorrow in the mean time im going to bed. Hopefully I can find out more.

alrite good to know buddy, ill try to divulge into "making" a custom .pkg, just that I wouldn't know the eboot content of ME, it will take a while but I'll look into this as well.

gd work on this! looking forward to any progress thats made!

You can mod the target times for the Speedruns and Time Trials just by hex editing COALESCED.INI. Sorry, I don't have the game any more so I cannot check the path under the game directory but it is not too hard to find.

Open the file and search for TT_STRETCH0, this is the group for first time trial. There are further groups for each of the original time trials upto TT_STRETCH22.

The TT_STRETCH0 group contains entries:

QualifyingTime=120
Rating1Time=120
Rating2Time=75
Rating3Time=65

I think the Qualifying Time is to do with where one time trail unlocks another, but the other three correspond to the star ratings. Just modify the target times.

Also, you will see that after the third rating time and before the start of the next group (TT_STRETCH1), it uses pairs of 0D 0A delimiters. You can use one of these pairs to give two characters extra space for the target times if you cut/paste the hex around within the group.

So, you can change the target times for TT_STRETCH0 to

QualifyingTime=999
Rating1Time=999
Rating2Time=999
Rating3Time=999

The Speedruns work in the same way. Search for LR_STRETCH0 and this is the group for the first Speed Run (the Prologue?). There are further groups for each chapter up to LR_STRETCH9.

The LR_STRETCH0 group contains entry:

QualifyingTime=180

Using the trick of overwriting one of the 0D 0A pair it is possible to set the time to

QualifyingTime=99999

Just load the modded file back to your PS3 game directory and you are good to go.

As I mentioned, I do not have the game any more so I cannot upload the modded file, but it is an easy mod to make if you are familiar with hex editing.

I will try to answer questions if the description is not clear.

EDIT: Obviously, you have to complete the Time Trail or Speed Run in the new target time to get the trophies...

This is EXACTLY what I did mate but its not loading the game for some reason which is why in an post I mention that I read the 360 version used one of the .xxx files to check the .ini file. Don't know if its the same on the PS3 or not but thats what im trying to figure out.... im trying to modify the speedruns to get the trophies easier but everytime i edit the ini the game black screens on me... I think I need to delete the game patch and try it again though... what hex editor would you recomend? everyone I have tried opens it encrypted and obviously editing the ini directly in notepad is a fail even though it isn't encrypted when I open it in notepad and it is in all the hex editors i've tried... im not familiar with hex edits in video games but im learning ive used it for other things though...

I can upload the original ini if you wanna take a look at it but your right everything is named exactly how you said.

For everyone else I can't think of the exact path at the moment but its under usdir ps3 config coalesced.ini i believe...?

It definately works just hex editing the COALESCED.INI, I didn't have to change anything else. I made sure that I didn't change the overall size of the file or move any of the group start points around in case there were any other checks going on when the game loads.

I use HxD editor. Google will find it for you no problem.

I can't remember whether I had a game patch installed or not but no harm in removing it, I suppose.

I'll see if I have one of my edited files laying around on my laptop but I think I've deleted them all.

Ok ill give it a shot and see what I can do if ill post edited ini here for everyone when im finished as im sure others will appreciate it thanks for your help and if I get it up and going ill give you credit if I post .

I found one of my files. It is from the BLES00322 version.
