So it has to be one of 'em.

OK just put back the uncompressed paf.prx and now my battery is correct again:D
I hope this isssue can be worked out of the compressor.

you sure its due compression and not due strangely edited paf.prx? ;p
could you try the attachment below? its the default paf.prx just repacked.

@ bstronga: I solved the exact module type identification in my program, only one left: how do I know which module is vsh module and which one is firmware kernel module? I wouldn't let the users decide which key is eligible for the selected prxes because it's really hard to know. Is it as simple as:
vsh modules » everything in vsh folder
firmware kernel modules » everything NOT in vsh folder?

for sce modules yes. but not for third party modules.

I see, thanks. And is there any special sign in sce files (except the name inside) which can help me to realize the module type?

And another question: if you compressed the inacor.prx, how did you do that? I de- and recompressed it and I got 2kB larger file than the original. It's almost 8% difference in a relatively small file and could be useful with larger files... :)

not sure yet.

i used 7-zip ;p by the way you should listen to Zinga Burga and use zlib for de/inflating.

So the only way is the read the name from the file... bad news.

I didn't think I could use zlib in my program because I'm not as good coder as you or Zinga Burga. I thought using gzip is the simpliest way, but now I realized that I can implement zlib to my program and it's really comfortable. Thank you and Zinga Burga for the information and help.

Can't really check now, but If I recall correctly, in the encrypted vshmain.prx - isn't there some text which says something like vsh* at the beginning of the file?

PS: bstronga, do you program? I think many of your mods would do well in a program from you XD

Can't figure out why recompression would have that much of an impact, other than using different compression levels...

well at lvl nine your compression is the exact size of sony's.

s_king · 05/08/2007 06:22 PM

@ Zinga Burga: I mean "good modder as bstronga or good coder as Zinga Burga". :)

@ Zmathue: Actually at level 9 smaller than original S0NY or M33 prx, but with zlib even smaller (8%) which is enough reason to change the compression method to zlib. ;)

my coding skills are not even worth to be mentioned ;p
