I’ve just updated the PSV Exporter repository over at GitHub to include the changes made for version 1.3

PSV resigning now possible 27 Jul 2019 6:54 AM (5 years ago)

dots_tb, with the help of AnalogMan151, teakhanirons, notzecoxao and nyaaasen, has released a Windows command line utility to re-sign PSV saves!

You can grab the source code and an executable from the GitHub page

For those wondering of PSV Exporter will get an update, I’m currently identifying if I still have the tools used to create it back in 2007. If I do then an update might happen, if not I’ll have to consider if it’s worth redeveloping the app in a new language/platform

Introducing mymc+ 7 May 2018 12:18 PM (6 years ago)

If you use PCSX2 you’ll no doubt be familiar with the great mymc tool by Ross Ridge which allows you to manage the memory cards used by the emulator.

thestr4ng3r has picked up the mantle by taking the original public domain & open source mymc and pushing it to the next level with a new fork called mymyc+.

Ported across to Python 3 thestr4ng3r has also included some new features such as PSV support. It’s great to see new cross-platform tools being worked on in 2018 so be sure to check it out.

Is PS2 Save Builder safe to use? 7 Jul 2016 11:28 AM (8 years ago)

We’ve been the home for Ps2 Save Builder for over 12 years and recently we’ve been made aware that some antivirus scanners are detecting Ps2 Save Builder as being dangerous or containing a virus.

The great folks over at Trend Micro took a deeper look at what was causing this and I’m happy to confirm that if you’ve downloaded Ps2 Save Builder from this site then it is safe to use.
The executable file utilises a technique called ‘packing’, viruses use this to disguise their true nature, and this is setting off a few AV products causing them to detect it as malicious.

Use the SHA256 hashes below to ensure you have a safe version of PS2 Save Builder:

[how to check SHA256]

If you downloaded PS2 Save Builder from any other site make sure you confirm that the hashes match exactly, if you have any doubt download again from here. If the hashes match exactly and your AV program still detects the files as dangerous please follow the products procedures for submitting a false positive result.

PSV Exporter Source code released 26 Dec 2015 9:50 AM (9 years ago)

Professor Farnsworth exclaiming "Good news everyone!"

Good news indeed!  The source code to PSV Exporter 1.1 can now be found on GitHub.  It’s raw, most of it was coded at 2am after a days work and it needs Delphi to compile, but it’s the whole package.

Python script to generate Xbox save signing keys 25 Mar 2015 12:42 PM (10 years ago)

Over at my personal site I’ve just announced the release of a Python script to generate the keys used to digitally re-sign Xbox saves.

Using xbox-save-sig is as simple as passing in the path to a default.xbe file:

python xboxsig.py -i /path/to/default.xbe

The output will be a text representation of the digital signature for save signing:

737E064C0236BA3E7140EC2B91D76766

The script can output the key in a selection of formats and being Python can run on many different systems.

The script is licensed under the MIT License, which is pretty permissive, so feel free to fork, improve and put it to good use!
