Note: consoleid in global.conf can be all "00" , so enter the "00" byte 16 times for it to work (32 0 total)

This is basically the method to hack every trophy on Playstation 3, from editing the TROPTRNS.DAT, the file that is installed, everytime you run a game, and it's basically the files that actually stores the trophy status and unlock date.



Difference between TROPTRNS.DAT and TROPUSR.DAT


The difference between the two files is:

• TROPTRNS.DAT: Actually stores trophy unlocks and status
• TROPUSR.DAT: Stores trophy timestamps and displays them in the trophy collection (XMB)


Occurrent:


• Trophy Modding Toolkit:

• HxD
    [URL="https://mh-nexus.de/en/hxd/"]Download HxD[/URL]


• Ps3 Timestamp Generator 
    [URL="https://www.mediafire.com/download.php?1nked1p1p9lp5ix"]Download Ps3 Timestamp Generator[/URL]




Steps:


• Step 1: Download the folder and modify the global.conf as stated. (New update includes already made global.conf)


• Step 2: Take your NPWR0XXXX_00 from your Ps3 (dev_hdd0/home/000000XX/trophy/)


• Step 3: Put your NPWR Folder in (C:\) in your Computer.

• Step 4: Open TRNS Tool.exe , and input "d" to decrypt, then you will be asked to insert you NPWR folder name, stored in C:\.

You must login or register to view this content.




• Step 5: Now your TROPTRNS.DAT will be decrypted. Open it in HxD and look for Offset 0x2C0, this is the trophy installation date , you will se two timestamps, first timestamps is Block 2C1-2C7, second is block 2C9-2CF , as you can see each timestamps is composed by 7 bytes. You do not need to modify these timestamps.

You must login or register to view this content.




• Step 6: First trophy is block 340-3EF , to unlock it you are going to change these bytes:

• Offset: 357 is the status, for each trophy block , the status is located at second line, seventh coloumn. To unlock the trophy, change it to "02" , it means the trophy is unlocked

• Offset: 373 is the trophy id, you can see id's in the TROPCONF.SFM file, stored in the NPWR folder, the first trophy in the Hex (first block) is going to be the 2nd trophy cause the Platinum is going to be the last one with id "00" , to set the id at Offset 373, just copy the byte that is over this one example:

You must login or register to view this content.


• Block: 377-37A is the trophy type, its gonna be:

    [LEFT]Bronze: 04 00 00 10[/LEFT] [LEFT]Silver: 03 00 00 10[/LEFT] [LEFT]Gold: 02 00 00 10[/LEFT] [LEFT]Platinum: 01 00 00 10[/LEFT]

Now you will have to look at TROPCONF.SFM and see which trophy has the ID you set and print the bytes for the trophy type. You can do the same thing since copying the byte that is over.


You must login or register to view this content.


• Offset: 380 Here you will have to print your 2 timestamps. In a legit earned TROPTRNS.DAT the 2 timestamps are different (milliseconds difference) , but now you can put the same for both entries, so generate it with Ps3 timestamp generator and paste it. See Step 5 for positions and blocks.


You must login or register to view this content.


• Each Trophy Block starts with:

    00 00 00 04 00 00 00 A0 00 00 00 ID 00 00 00 00


and ends with:


    00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00



• Step 7: First trophy is unlocked. Now repeat this action for all trophies. Then look for these positions:

• Offset: 110 Here is stored your Sen ID , if you're using a TROPTRNS.DAT from a user where you already did access Sen, there will be bytes with your sen ID, otherwise they will be nulled.

• Offset: 167 Here is stored the number of total entries, to determinate this, you will have to insert the number of trophies you unlocked , +1 , for example: You unlocked 51 trophies. In Hex: 51 = 33. So you will put 34.


• Step 8: To unlock the platinum trophy or the one with ID 00 (Games without plat) , you will have to insert it at the end, as last trophy.

• Step 9: When you're done editing your TROPTRNS.DAT, save it and open TROPTRNS Tool.exe again, input "e" and your NPWR Folder. Upload it to your Ps3 , log in your SEN account and Sync the trophies.


FAQ:

Q: Your tool is not working for me, how can i fix it?
A: If my tool is not working for you just use these commands on pfdtool to decrypt:
    Encryption: -g NPWR*****_00 -e (your Path) TROPTRNS.DAT


    Decryption: -g NPWR*****_00 -d (your Path) TROPTRNS.DAT


Q: Timestamp generator wont generate my hex value, what can i do?
A: Make sure you did add all values in textboxes.

... the problem is that you hack an online trophy ... LVL 50 ...
I think ... they can check if you got the trophy in legit mode for ONLINE trophy ...

I was ban ONLY for using a save file from another person ( NO HACK TROPTRNS.DAT )... this save file contain offline and online trophy ...
They probably check if i get this online or not...

so they BAN me permanently ...

More than likely you were banned for some other reason. Not for hacking 7 trophies. It really doesn't matter what trophies you hack, they can be easy or hard, online or offline - it will not be a sole reason to get yourself banned. So far I have never heard anyone being banned only for hacking trophies. Some have claimed that but in most cases they admitted later that they had Multiman installed and that they had ripped games on their PS3.

Like I said, Sony doesn't care (at least so far hasn't) about trophies, but they do punich pirates.

If you dont get pirates how u meant to platinum over 700 games to get lvl 100 then? You can play pirates just play offline, clear history then sign in/ sync clear history again and thats it simple no hard no ban. Also I recommend using rebug.

Sorry man, but I really miss the point of doing that? Even with a help from automated tools it would still take a huge amount of time to do it and everyone will know that you cheated. People really have a way too much free time.

So i got the 1st msg from Sony Support and they said perma ban but no reason was mentioned. So I told them to tell me the reason why they banned me. Well few mins ago I got the answer. They listed all the times i got banned with date and reason. I got banned 5x because I insulted others. Well nothing special but my last ban was from 19.04.2013-19.05.2013. I got banned on 22th MAY. 3 days i was online and I NEVER PLAYED ANY GAME ONLINE SO I NEVER WROTE ANY HATEMAIL TO ANYONE. Now Sony said that THIS PERMA BAN was because I INSULTED SOMEONE. I can promise you all that I have never ever wrote any msg to someone else during this 3 days. Imagine ur 1st ban was because u sent 5 hate mails to someone. Then he reported 3-4 of your msgs to sony and u got banned. Now can he report the last msg months later to get me banned again? You know what I mean? Fucking Sony bitches i had a LVL 16 account with 1800 trophies. 90% were legit the rest was with gamesaves from others and the 7 hacked trophies. It was defo not because I hacked the trophies thats clear now.

Just like I thought that its not because of the trophies. And I report every user who just sends some stupid insulting message because I happened to have more luck or be more skilled. Don't usually even bother replying.

Hello,

I am trying to do this for Mirrors Edge, but can not get it to work, I am not sure if I got my global CONF file correct, I got my details from Multiman?, I have attached pictures off what I did in HxD just incase I did something wrong in there....

Please let me know?... Skype: AdrianUK-93
PSN: AdrianUK-93

Many Thanks in Advance....


Just realised that I do not think you can see those pictures, but if you add me on Skype then I will send them on there so you can see them properly to see If I have gone wrong on HxD

@AdrianUK-93:

There is a very helpful post on page 47, post #467 by cheetahh. And you dont have to edit the global.conf.

@cheetahh:

Hey what would you say how much the chance is that I get unbanned if I write an insightful, self-critical and extravagant email to Sony-Support? Because I read in some forums that it happend that Sony canceled a perma ban already. As I said in my last post, they didnt ban me because of moddind TROPTRNS.dat, it was because I insulted other players and well I can say I made a big mistake and I learned from this incident, ... and so on. What do you think it is possible? Thanks

I really don't know. Its always worth a try, but as its someone subjective decision probably it really depends who is reviewing your explanation.
