Re: fake_np v1.0

How can I use the fake_np.exe in orther to use a PSN EBOOT I own to sign a ISO from a UMD?

Edit 1:
I use the EBOOT.PBP from GTA Vice City (1.53Gb) to sign a ISO from Metal Slug this way:
fake_np -b EBOOT.PBP -w np.iso metal.pbp

It writes de ULES00502.PBP first, and then writes the metal.pbp
I can see the metal slug icon in the game menu, and it seems to start, but stop and shows me the error:
The game could not be started.
(80020148)

I use Win7 and have a PSPgo with OFW 6.60

Edit 2:
Ok, I try to sign an ISO from another game and works fine. I think it could fail in some games.

You should be aware that if you sign a backup that requires a higher firmware than the demo header, it may not work on the lower firmware, even if the header allows that. But probably that also depends on the kind of backup you are signing :P

And, as you may know, the PRO CFW disables the PBP firmware check.

will your headers work with ISOTOOL directly on the PSP? That would be really awesome.

EDIT: They're not in the right format to work with ISOTOOL

but how exactly do I use them with the new fake_np? I'm not seeing any clear information in the thread

EDIT 2: okay, figured it out. easy-mode command-line flags, I was making it harder than I needed to.

This might sound dumb but, can I just put the fake_np.exe in the fake_np folder of isotool to use it on my psp? Also, I've found that it will sign .cso games but they never work, what's up with that? K, done sounding stupid and thanks for the info.
I thought what I'd do was, I'd pretend I was one of those deaf-mutes...

same,

opens for half of second and closes automatically.
tried with 3 computers D;

edit : fake_np runs on win7, but only on iso file less than 1.1 GB, seboot is still not working
edit : it doesn't open stand alone, so its impossible to use -b -c stuff..

I can't seem to get this to work properly, when I go to sign my eboot.bin file I get "invalid tag index".
