Today, I'm going to show you how to easily resign any PS3 game save.What is resigning and why is it useful? Well, if you ever downloaded or attempt to use a game save from someone else, chances are that either the game won't allow it at all or disallow you to save over it.Resigning the game save will allow you to transform it into your own, allowing you to use it successfully and save over it as many times as you want.In this tutorial, we're going to be resigning a Dynasty Warriors 8 game save. You can use any game save you like, of course. Also, this is specifically for non-copy protected game saves only.This process is very easy and should take you no longer than 5 minutes. Requirements:Game save you wish to resign
Game save of your own from your own PS3 and user account
Playstation 3 console (can be original firmware or custom - NO modding necessary)
USB stick/drive - to transfer game saves from PS3 to PC and vice versa
PC with Windows XP, Vista, 7 or 8
Bruteforce Save Data
STEP 1: Copy your own game save to USB stickThe first thing we need to accomplish is to obtain a game save that is of your own (i.e. one that is currently tied to your PS3 and user account).You can use any game save for this. In this tutorial, I will be using my own Dynasty Warriors 8 game save from my PS3 (to make things less complex).Copy the game save of your choice from your PS3 to your USB stick. Plug the USB stick into your PC. You can simply leave the game save in the USB stick as copying it to the PC isn't necessary.STEP 2: Download/obtain the game save you wish to resignNow, we will need the game save you wish to resign. For this tutorial, I'm going to be using the Dynasty Warriors 8 100% game save I posted on this blog.Place the game save folder somewhere on your PC that you can remember.STEP 3: Download and configure Bruteforce Save DataBruteforce Save Data is a powerful game save data swiss army knife for PS3. It allows one to decyrpt and encrypt game save files, add cheats, transfer region, transfer saves to another owner and more. Download Bruteforce Save Data here. Once it's finished downloading, extract the RAR file and run the installer. Do not run the program yet.Create a new folder on your desktop or anywhere else you like and name it "SAVEDATA". This folder will be the folder where you store all your game saves for usage with Bruteforce Save Data. Make sure that wherever directory you store it in is NOT write protected!Drag/copy the game save folder you wish to resign (ex. NPUB31234-SAVEDATA) to this "SAVEDATA" folder.Now it's time to run Bruteforce Save Data. Windows Vista, 7 and 8: Run Bruteforce Save Data as an administrator by right clicking the program icon and then selecting "Run as administrator". This is very crucial! If you don't wish to do this every time you re-open the program, go to the BruteforceSaveData.exe in Windows Explorer, right click and select "Properties", then go to "Compatibility" tab and check "Run this program as administrator". Alternately, you can simply disable Windows User Account Control (UAC).Windows XP: You can just simply double click the program icon to launch. Although, if you run into strange issues, you may want to try running as an Administrator. If you receive an error message regarding msvbvm50.dll missing, you need to install Visual Basic Runtime 5.You may be also requested to download Microsoft Visual Basic C++ 2010 (x86) if you don't have it installed in your system. Downloading and installing this is a must!If all is well, you should be greeted with a nice big window.It may ask you to update cheats repository, click the "Download" button to download the latest database. This is important because it will update your game.conf file with the latest game keys to ensure saves can be decrypted and encrypted. Ignore any of the program's requests to input a console ID and User ID. You don't need to setup a PARAM.SFO template either for now. Just leave them all at default.The first thing we need to do is click on the "..." button and select the "SAVEDATA" folder of where our game save is (the one we created earlier). So go ahead and do that. Once selected, your game save should show up.SAVEDATA folder selected as the path.Take note of the "Key" section, there should be numbers in this field. If it's empty, you'll need to select the game save and hit F6 to Bruteforce the key. Once it's Bruteforced, press the "Refresh" button to refresh everything. The "Key" section should have now some numbers.STEP 4: Setup PARAM.SFO templateWe need to setup a PARAM.SFO template so that we can use it to resign the game save to our own PS3 and user account. This is where your own game save you transferred over earlier from the PS3 comes in handy.To do this, in the Bruteforce Save Data program window, click on the button labeled "Set PARAM.SFO as Template". This should pop up a menu.In the pop up menu, go to "Configure Profiles" and select "SET PARAM.SFO for Profile 1...".How to setup PARAM.SFO template.Now, it will ask you for a PARAM.SFO file. What you want to select is the PARAM.SFO file of your own game save (the one we transferred over earlier from the PS3, which should be in your USB stick if you haven't copied it over to your PC).Here I selected the PARAM.SFO file from the Dynasty Warriors 8 game save I copied to my USB stick:Once you click "Open", it will ask you to give it a friendly name. Simply enter your PS3 user account name you use.After you click "OK", it will tell you that the current profile will be used for patches. Meaning, every time you resign a game save, it will be resigned to this profile (PS3 and user account).Make sure your profile ID (the 16 digit number after your profile name) is not BLANK. If it's BLANK, you will need to use another game save PARAM.SFO file until you get a 16 digit number. If you cannot get a 16 digit number, try tying a PSN/SEN account to your PS3 user account, log into it and then create a game save or save over a previous game save. You should get a 16 digit number for that save afterwards. STEP 5: Rebuild game save with new profileWith the game save selected, click on the button labeled "Rebuild" and then select "Rebuild Full" in the pop up menu. It will ask you a confirmation dialog; select "Yes" to confirm.If it is successful, the "Profile" field on the game save should be changed to your own profile name and unique ID.Resign successful!That's all there is to resigning a game save! No decrypting and encrypting necessary!STEP 6: Transfer game save to PS3You are pretty much finished at this point. All that's left to be done is to transfer the game save back to your PS3 and test it out (using your USB stick).Please don't be an idiot and overwrite your current game save without making a backup of it first! I will not be held responsible for any loss or damages of your game saves if you fail to follow this caution!If all is well, the game should throw you no warnings about using another person's game save and you should be able to save over it now.Enjoy!NEED HELP?First, make sure you fully read the Bruteforce Save Data FAQ.
