got this error at first FileManager error cant loacte run/mag/ps3/game.psarc.sdat
so rename another *.sdat and made the folder run/mag/ps3/
then it decrypts it
:)
got it from here

now first when i debugged the patched the target was looking for game.psarc.sdat
it gave an error sinse it wasent there.
so i replaced the game.psarc.sdat with files that was finallyzes encrypted , just rename the files i wanted to game.psarc.sdat then in debugger,do core dump extract the sdat decrypted.

Hi Zadow how are you my friend?
You does not need all this steps to just decrypt SDAT files.
You can use this application (here) to do this.
Also you can look at this article it take about SDAT decryption and this code is tested and work fine.
You can build your app to decrypt any SDAT files and run it in any DEX or CEX with CFW console.
.sdat files (playstation 3) decryption method

The games that needs to run as emu, actully dont.

After you build the emu in ps3gen, press verify
Then select emu you just build. then select all files and folders then decrypt.

Now in Target manager set app _home. to the folder you created.
IN release mode play via xmb.
