Notes[edit | edit source]

Icon Disc Benefits

  • The flag "g" activates two subfolders PS3_GAME (main game) and PS3_EXTRA (one of the 3 ways to include extras in a disc).
    Games are marked as "gu" (because there is always an UPDATE.PUP), if you want to remove the folder PS3_UPDATE is good to remove the flag "u" from here
  • The flags "T" and "V" activates subfolders inside PS3_CONTENT (the second way to include extras in a disc)
  • The third way to include extras in a disc depends of "g" but it needs to activate another different flag in TITLE_ID\PS3_GAME\PARAM.SFO (in the ATTRIBUTE parameter)
  • The flag "S" appears (need to remove-insert disc on top of BD-EMU) with games featuring Cross Buy (FW 4.25+?), and will load the icon "Disc Benefits" (dev_flash\vsh\resource\explore\icon) and pic.
    This flag might only concern PSVita content. Specific title id as XCJS-0000* is not required. Order is : "gSu".
