This is great! Cheers Aldo.
I've said it once and I'll say it again.. my daily life is a grind so I don't like grinding in games anymore.
I dont care if people cheat online because I don't play online.
       
Do you like anything to do with Android, Consoles, Retro Emulation, Coding/Hacking or just talking to ME http://techbliss.org

Well, not quite. Not sure if you're being sarcastic, but it defeats the original purpose intended by the developers of the game thus negating the intended experience. It's like playing Monopoly and grabbing a few thousand bucks while the bank isn't watching. However, I've seen lots of interesting cheats that enable unused content to be used in the game; however most of these types of cheat codes exists only on older consoles as modern day exportations of "left over unused code" is usually done by hacking the game itself without the use of simple cheat codes (when possible). I do stand behind my original post though; if you cheat to beat a game you've not beaten the game - you've simply cheated. Oh, and cheating on-line is simply horrible. Alas, there is really no way to prevent adolescents or ones with the IQ of them from doing so.
To be frank, I was being partially tongue-in-cheek whilst pointing out the very obvious, but like you said, cheating do have its upsides, such as unlocking the whole fighting game character roster immediately without dealing with the bullshit story mode/arcade mode/nonsensical in-game objectives so that one can set up an offline multiplayer party without the guest players thinking "WHY THE FUCK ARE THERE QUESTION MARK BOXES IN CHARACTER SELECT FOR? FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUU!!!!11111111".
Instead of me being a complete and total dick and a prick, I should be on my best behaviour!
Hi gdrive, sorry for the n00b question what is the use for all this tools when you can play without fixing anything with the latest firmware.
WISHING EVERYONE HERE A MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR
Okay - let me put some of the key reasons as to why this tool bundle is released/needed/useful in list format:
- It allows users to repack homebrew/PSN packages for use on post-3.55 firmwares as most of the packages that were released in 2010/2011 are NOT forward compatible with the latest firmware.
- It allows users to resign EBOOT.BIN and other DRM-tied files for post-3.55 firmwares for the exactly the same reason as mentioned in point #1.
- It allows users to resign game saves for use on other PS3 units or for backup purposes.
- It enables users to embed game cheats into the game files so that they can unlock everything in any of their chosen games.
- It allows users to edit PARAM.SFO files for log-file level stealthing purposes (in conjunction with additional tools) and add additional screen resolutions.
There are more reasons for users to use this tool bundle, but I'd end up with crooked fingers by the time I write all of them out!

I've tried this new cheat editor with tales of graces F but the patch never applied to the decrypted ELF. What do I need to do after I decrypted the EBOOT.BIN?
@ichibaka
In PS3 Cheat Editor 2.4.1 there was a bug resigning ELF (I left some debug code by mistake and was not signing the patched ELF).
Also some games are not compatible with the "Patch EBOOT" feature.
The version 2.4.2 now reads the compatibility info from "ASM" folder. However, currently there is not any compatibility info yet.
Additionally I added support up to 5 "profiles" with friendly names andsupport for user_games.conf in the Bruteforce Save Data.
Both tools and updated the st.dat (495 games) / games.conf (+2400 title ids) are available in the PS3 Tools Collection 2.0.56

Hey aldo, so if I understand what you are saying correctly, your cheat tool uses the same st.dat as the one floating around for the CU that can be downloaded and is updated by users? Would it then have the same compatibility as that st.dat (ie, can we just see what games are listed for their st.dat to see what games would work with your cheat editor?).

I used the latest ps3tools 2.0.56 and ps3 cheat editor 2.4.2 but the EBOOT.ELF still didn't get patched. It renamed the original to EBOOT.ELF.BACKUP and made a new EBOOT.ELF but both files have the exact same size, date modified (which shouldn't be since the patched eboot.elf is newly created at a later time than the original eboot.elf) and date created. I tried Mass Effect 3 US edition, and Tales of Graces F ps3 edition and both didn't work. Same problem patch elf.
