Tutorial[/i]

  1. You want to FTP into /dev_hdd0/GAMES/*Skyrim Folder*/PS3_GAME/USRDIR
  2. Pull out the SKYRIM.INI file and put It on your desktop
  3. Now go into DATA folder "/dev_hdd0/GAMES/*Skyrim Folder*/PS3_GAME/USRDIR/DATA" and drag the .ESP file into the DATA folder, in our case drag DAGGER.ESP file into DATA folder
  4. Right click the .INI file you dragged to your Desktop and edit the file, ctrl + f (Search) for "STestFile"
  5. You should see this

  6. Now start adding "sTestFile9=" and continue down with the number till you reach 1. Looks like this

  7. Now add your .ESP file to "sTestFile4=" (We add to sTestFile4 cause the update is at 10. And If you have DLC It will most likely start from 1. And there's 3 DLC, so It would use up to "sTestFile3=", so we use 4-10 for our mods)
  8. So add "sTestFile4=DAGGER.ESP" then save the file

  9. Load the SKYRIM.INI back into your directory "/dev_hdd0/GAMES/*Skyrim Folder*/PS3_GAME/USRDIR"
  10. Delete the game update (Game Data Utility) not your save, then load up Skyrim, (You can install the updates again If you'd like, had to delete the update so It installs the .ESP)
  11. You now have loaded the .ESP file on Skyrim on your ps3, congrats!

I prefer to use the legendary edition as it already has all the dlc. Inside the BLUS31202 go to the USRDIR folder and inside should have the .ini file. The data folder is where you place the .esp file and .bsa (or the loose folders). I also capitalize all the files and folder names for the mod. A great tool that does this for you is bulk rename utility.

I've got the same version as you, but NoNE of my dlc is showing up.... I see the dlc in a folder called ps3_extra but how do I get the dlc to install??? Idk what to do because I can't install the pkg files for some reason? How did you get the legendary edition to install dlc??


Thanks

If you have the legendary edition then when you are at the xmb there will be another option under the game and that has all of the dlc. just click the dlc you want to install and it will install it. if you cannot get this to work then you can always find the pkg files of the dlc and install it that way.

On tesv legendary edition, the only place to find the ini files are on the disc, disc iso or copied disc files.
First location: ps3 root dir/bdvd/ps3_game/usrdir
Second: ps3 root/hdd0/ps3iso/"game iso file"
Third:ps3 root/hdd0/GAMES/skyrim folder/ps3_game/usrdir
