(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); If anyone has been looking around the 360's and how they had to patch/mod the default_mp.xex to get modded patches to run well the same most likely will have to apply to the PS3.

If anyone read my thread about ISO modding well, when I discovered details about the ISOs I came across the default_mp.xex in my 360 MW2 ISO. And Well here is a picture.

***In the above picture you will find the default_mp.xex file. Which on the PS3 is the .self***

The reason why most people can't run modded patches is because the default_mp acts as a secondary fail safe system. It
1) Checks to see if the patch hasn't been edited. Then runs it.
Or
2)It checks it if its an incorrect/modded patch it will give a syntax error.


Before anyone post anything please read other threads, and don't flame. And this is not a theory, since the .xex had to be patched/modded on the 360.

This is a link for .self file structure--->You must login or register to view this content.

We are on the brink of getting these hacks. If we work hard enough we will eventually get it.

***Copy and Paste***
This is from Xbox-Scene and credits go to Provenance.

"This tool will patch your default_mp.xex to remove security checks, allowing you to play modifications of the multiplayer .ff files. This tool is written to work with the initial version of the title from the disk, and WILL NOT connect to Xbox Live nor is it meant to."


The above clarifies further more of what the default_mp does. Even though the file extension is xex it still applies to .self

***More Info***
I just discovered that the default_mp.self tells the EBOOT.BIN what to execute. Every game has a default.self and a default_mp.self. So basically the file is telling the EBOOT to give us a syntax error. If you find out more please post a reply.

I will post a .self file. Non modded/patched for you guys to look at also. After awhile of course.

***Default_mp.self download***

After u have accessed it, good luck modding it since u may think the .xex is the same as a .self but there actually quite different and have different encoding and decoding methods.
After U have modded it, good luck getting it to run. Since the .self is on the MW2 disc. U will need to run the game off a HDD. But from what i heard PS Jailbreak is not compatible with MW2

So that screws us every which way. But good work for the thoery but it will tak eu months and months to crack it. Well right now its impossible because we cant run .iso's off HDD.


Sorry for this not trying to start anything, but thats why you use and external HDD... remember when hunter said both his hard drives fail, he was using an external HDD...

Guys this is a thread about default_mp.selfs... the ps3 jailbreak cannot do anything except backup games and run home brew. Please do not get off topic nor bring it up. Its absolutely pointless and Hunter and TheUknown did not use it obviously.

** I put did but meant did not**

Der LMFAO. why would u use the internal HDD. there both the same. But PS Jailbreak is still not compatible with MW2 and SAK i dont think is compatible with MW2 because With MW2 there is a file thats 4gb+ (I think) and when u are dumping games u cannot dump game sthat have files over 4gb+
Simple as that

I know it's a thread for .self. but hoow do u guys think u are gonna get it. Because the funny thing aswell is, is that the .self is also Signed. Juts liek the 1.11 Patch .pkg
Therefore once u have a modded one, u will still need to sign it

There is an exploit with RFOM that will allow you to upload it without signing it. I will try to find it so you can take a look at it. But the correct term for modding the default_mp.self is "patch".

Hate to say this but the only real site with everything xenon 360 is se7ensins. They have everything we need to know about the default_mp.

yes, RFOM might work. but the thing is u have to make a PS3 .self i think
And to make one, u have to know what one loks like, what it contains and so on
But the xbox .xex is different 2 the .self just because there the same name and from same game. U have to remember there from different platforms

For now its just a theory.

Mods please close. This is a "Theory" and I need sometime to work without interruption.
If I need it to be opened I will let one of you know.

No don't close. I changed my mind. I want it open as a reference and people to post tips in so void the close request.

Jailbreak is compatible with all games bro, it just wont let you dump 4gig files on an external HDD but it can dump it on your PS HDD for some weird reason provided youve got the capacity mate

You're correct and if anything, it may be possible that it would dump the files that are less than 4gb to the external, so it may be possible to have the defualt_mp.self on the external and mod it, then put it back on the console, that's probably my best guess yet
