TUT: How to get COD: Black Ops working on v3.41!

[dooby2oon]

This is not my work belongs to MRDOCA hunter128 and a few others

But thought id post for all you jail breakers

When COD: Black Ops finally arrived in the stores it was quickly found out that it required v3.50 to play!

JonahUK pointed out that when the EBOOT.BIN was viewed with a hex editor it showed it was compiled with the 3.40 SDK meaning it was debug update time!!!

I extracted the EBOOT.BIN file from the 1.02 debug update modified them and made a pack here:

Mod Pack:

MEGAUPLOAD - MEGAUPLOAD - The leading online storage and file delivery service

Here is a tutorial to get the game working:

(make sure you backup all your files first incase you do something wrong)

Step One:

download the files and go to where you put your game and edit your pram.sfo to say 3.40 with PS3SFOEdit (included In pack) see step 4 for help.

***EXAMPLE OF WHERE YOU MAY HAVE PUT YOUR GAME***

dev_HDD0/GAME/LAUN12345/BL*****/PS3_GAME/HERE!

or

USB:/GAMEZ/BL*****/PS3_GAME/HERE

Step Two

Update the game to 1.02 using the retail update for your region or game id.
(note if you use the wrong update it will result in a black screen)

Step 3

after your update has finished, open comgenie or ftp and go to:
dev_hdd0/GAME/"Blackops"(BL*****)/USRDIR and put the eboot in the pack here

Step 4

go to
dev_hdd0/GAME/"Blackops"(BL******)/

and copy the sfo.pram file to your pc.

To edit the sfo file use the sfoeditor ive inc in my pack

click load and choose your PRAM.SFO file.

click Advanced Edit

where it says 3.5000 change this to say 3.4000 and press ok.

press save and save it to the desktop or somewhere you will be able to see it easy.

now either put it on a usb drive and copy it back with comgenie or ftp it back to the folder it came from.

Step 5

After you install the pkg launch a FTP server and go to /dev_hdd0/mms/db/ and search a file called metadata_db_hdd open it in a hex editor and search 3.50, and change to 3.40

NOW REBOOT OR YOU WILL GET EITHER A ERROR OR BLACK SCREEN

Very nice tut, it sounds similar to the 360 waves patcher except you edit the update yourself with the hex editor.
On the xbox however this is considered as an instant flag and ban so ps3 users be warned if attempting to go on ps3 live after doing this!

i get the error message eboot.bin file is invalid or something, i got like two folders of the game, one called game and the other called update, should i just follow these instructions, modify the file and drag it back in to the games folder and then copy to PS3 via OpenManager???

any chance of any images to go with tutorial?

here is the link to the games folder, check the address bar as well of folder names;
