**Iris manager (and all his forks) has an hexeditor inside his archive manager, just navigate to the SFO press "X" and scroll down to offset 0x558 (where PARAMS area usually starts), is easy to recognize because always starts with this 1,5,1,2,2 bytes, at the next line are the 4 counters, 4 bytes | **Iris manager (and all his forks) has an hexeditor inside his archive manager, just navigate to the SFO press "X" and scroll down to offset 0x558 (where PARAMS area usually starts), is easy to recognize because always starts with this 1,5,1,2,2 bytes, at the next line are the 4 counters, 4 bytes lenght each | ||
**To know exactly wich files has been updated inside the savedata folder is needed to look at his timestamps, iris manager doesnt displays timestamps, but you can use the FTP feature to see then from a FTP client running in a PC connected to the PS3, be sure the FTP client doesnt fool you with the timestamps, usually after a disconection/conection the old timestamps are displayed, is needed to "refresh" the files (with F5 in filezilla) or close/open the FTP client again to force it to refresh timestamps | **To know exactly wich files has been updated inside the savedata folder is needed to look at his timestamps, iris manager doesnt displays timestamps, but you can use the FTP feature to see then from a FTP client running in a PC connected to the PS3, be sure the FTP client doesnt fool you with the timestamps, usually after a disconection/conection the old timestamps are displayed, is needed to "refresh" the files (with F5 in filezilla) or close/open the FTP client again to force it to refresh timestamps | ||
**The system considers the savedata has been updated when the timestamp of the SFO is updated (and consequently the PFD has been updated too). But sometimes the PFD is the only file updated in the folder, in this cases the system doesnt considers the savedata has been updated. The number of times the SFO has been updated is stored in one of the counters inside PARAMS, most games loads and updates the SFO when the game boots (to be able to update his timestamp in XMB and display the last time the game was booted) | **The system considers the savedata has been updated when the timestamp of the SFO is updated (and consequently the PFD has been updated too).
