DOCUMENT.DAT

Software manual of games (minis, PSP remaster and ps1 classic).

By pressing home button during the game, ICON of software manual will appear near the game icon to of the ps3 (as option when it s PS1 classic)

Can be replaced by other DOCUMENT.DAT of others same game category (Minis and PSP remaster can be interchanged).

DOCUMENT.DAT on PS3

• PARAM.SFO:

 for DG game:  The icon of software game can appear on PS3 games but 
 not loading the manual.
(edited SFO category as MN instead, the utility icon don t appear with HG)

DOCUMENT.DAT on PSP

3 different version supported? ( ps1 classic-MINIS-old format used on homebrew) Can be loaded from psp XMB (if it is from MINIS, not from PS1 classic) without having to boot the game or even a working game.

Create your homebrew manual or walktrough by using PSP DocMaker GUI:

Others: Max 100 pages as display?

DOCUMENT.DAT on PSVITA

See game manual in png format

CONFIG

Infos about PS1 Emulation

Size:60 bytes, string in ASCII: "PS1EmuConfigFile", "disc_no"

Generated/overwrited at each boot of the game, configure the PS1 emulator for : ?

KEYS.BIN

16 bytes.

If you have this file, you can put it into the folder CONTENT to make your PS1 classic game working after being exported to the PSP (with CFW or LCFW).

On PSP scene: for the purpose of running ps1 iso, it seems the need of this keys.bin file was patched (to match the same game, attached to "PSP.base") and later no needed anymore.

For MINIS and export?

See here for some keys.bin examples

Others: PARAM.SFO attribut (PSP)

By group content format:

PSP™: X3,X5,X6,X7 (per default, used for unsupported/ Corrupted data as Unknown folder on PS3, X1 can be also in this folder and it is a bit different issue, in 2 case at least, but no matter)

minis: X1 (same on PS3)

Playstation® (for ps1 classic game) : Don t have attributes

PCENGINE : X0 (same for PS3)

NEOGEO : X2 (it s X4 on PS3, NEOGEO game don t have export so that can be the reason why Attribut are different)

Only X3 seems missing, X5,X6,X7 might not be used yet.
