if there save is a different region it wont work it will say corrupt, you need to do the xploder 2 save method you get different region saves to work
Ok, you're not understanding what I am saying.
1. There is nothing coming off my OFW PS3.
2. I download someone else's copy protected save (They used CFW to get it off their CFW system and upload it to the net where I download it).
3. If the save is the SAME region as my disc (ie, BLUS DJ Hero save and BLUS DJ Hero disc) then I put the save I downloaded into Xploder and transfer it to the USB (this works) without modifying the downloaded save.
4. **This is the important part** IF Xploder removed the copy protection from the save when I transferred from the PC to the USB I will be able to copy it from the USB to the PS3. This is what I have no tested, some have said Xploder does this, others say it doesn't. I want to test this out ASAP.
5. My GUESS is that if all the above are true then the save will work with my disc (despite me NOT putting my own .SFO into the downloaded save file) BECAUSE I have tested non-copy protected saves that were just downloaded and put on my system (through Xploder) without changing the .SFO to my own and they have worked.
Make sense what I am trying now?
