Went from TBCFWv2 back to Kmeaw, do I have to reinstall all game data/updates?

[PatrickBatman]

It's been awhile since I changed CFW, the first game I tried on Kmeaw was TC Splinter Cell HD, went to bootloader screen all the games black screen. I figured I'd have to reinstall it, so im doing that as this game takes forever, still waiting.

Anyway, so am I going to have to reinstall all my games & updates or they'll blackscreen?

Or am I missing something havent used Kmeaw in over a year prolly.

(I also havent tested any other game yet since on KMeaw, for instance a game without install data /update)

UPDATE: well its installed seems to work now, hopefully i wont have to do this with EVERY game.

Tried a game with an update only no install data and it worked, so it seems it may just be games with installation I'll have to reinstall but not updates.

It seems TB patched things weird to where after original files are replaced,
and the updates are applied. The game will try to install Game Data again conflicting
with the already installed game data. If it's just install data then delete it.
If it has DLC, put an edited low version param.sfo in the game data,
so an update will install over it. In some cases it won't work and you'll have to take the loss.
Also some save data won't be recognized as well, asking you to save as if it's for the first time.

I had pretty much had most T.B patched games
converted back to kmeaw, had to delete gamedata/gamesaves
all worked except sniperelite v2 which was no loss

@Patrick, so I just have to delete gamedata/gamesaves? Or do I need to replace some files? Im going back to KMEAW from TBCFW2 too. Thanks in advance.

Well for one (obviously) you dont need TB patch files anymore. You definitely will have to get rid of game install data. If it's a game that combines game data and the patch installs in game data utility, youll have to reinstall those game as well and the patch, if DLC is in combined in game data as well it'll have to be reinstalled. Also your Act.dat will have to be restored. I never had to get rid of any of gamesaves.
