    Exclamation [UPDATED] Save up space on internal HDD! [210+ Rip Games+More!] CONTRIBUTE NOW!

    It never hurts to save up some space on that internal HDD - you can never have enough :D

    So here it is, how to save up the maximum space on your int HDD!

    I am NOT responsible for causing your game to crash or to become unplayable. You should ALWAYS have a second BACKUP in case you f*ck up something. Use at your own responsibility.

    DEX Owners? 4.30 Users? Your Help is NEEDED!! After reading this guide, please post which files you ripped!! +Rep and Thanks awaits you :D

    WE HAVE REACHED 200 GAMES!!! WOW!! THANKS TO ALL WHO CONTRIBUTED TO THIS GREAT GUIDE <3




    1)Delete the PS3_UPDATE folder
    Spoiler:
    All games have this folder(~250 MB),and if i delete all PS3_UPDATE in all games it'll save up a lot of space (especially if you got tons of games), and all games still work correctly.
    HOW? In your downloaded game folder, you'll have something like this: BLUS06969/PS3_GAME and PS3_UPDATE. Delete the PS3 UPDATE.

    If your game is on your int HDD already, open Multiman's filemanager (full left column), go to dev0_hdd/GAMES/GAME_NAME_ID/ and delete the PS3 UPDATE folder (circle or square?)


    2)Remove the extra languages!
    Spoiler:
    This is probably the biggest saver, removing a good number of gigs.
    HOW? This is not exact science, it depends on each game. Usually EUR games have several languages (typically French, Spanish, and a few more). Our goal is to remove EVERYTHING related to those assuming we'll be playing the game in ENGLISH ONLY.

    MY TIP: Have two copies of the game you want to rip. One remains intact as our backup, the second you can modify, test to make sure it isnt broken, then play/keep it.

    Also, you can instead of deleting the files completly use dummy files. Simply open notepad, empty file, in Menu > Save As > Change "Save Type As" to "All files" > Write the file name. That would give you the dummy file you need

    TOP TIP (Thanks to uptheirons1 for this!) Using aldo's ps3rip tool, the whole process of creating dummy files is automated!

    ex: save a file called 'wondervid_spanish.bik' (it'll be like 0 kb as expected) and replace the actual BIG file with it, should work

    Why do this? Some games dont load properly/crash if they miss a crucial file or dont install the game data.


    Typically, cinematics/audio are found here:
    GAME_NAME/USRDIR/...

    Your job is to go file hunting, and after you done it a few times, you'll know what you're looking for. Usually they are .psarc files (big ones) and they are marked with "blah_blah_FR" or "french.psarc". Sometimes, you'll find whole folders named "french", and you got to delete them. Look out for folders called 'audio', 'speech', 'movies', 'cinematic', that's where they usually lie.

    Also, the language files are the most obvious to spot. Usually in one folder, or as whole bunch of seperate files. But if you see "_INT" don't remove that one, because it's for the English language.

    Example:You have 4 files: 'audio_barn_int', 'audio_barn_fr', 'audio_barn_es', 'audio_barn_de' then delete all 3 except the FIRST one.
    Check buttom of thread for more!

    Best way to explain is an example:

    Under God of War III/PS3_GAME/USRDIR/PS3_CONTENT/VIDEODIR
    Remove:
    GERMAN.PSARC
    SPANISH.PSARC
    PORTUGUESE.PSARC
    ITALIAN.PSARC
    FRENCH.PSARC
    DUTCH.PSARC
    RUSSIAN.PSARC
    POLISH.PSARC

    Result? OVER 5.5gb saved!!


    3)Remove 3D Movies/Bonus contents!
    Spoiler:
    Same process as the step before, this time you hunt for CINEMATICS! Most games runs even when you delete the cinematics (if you dont care for the story), and those will save a great deal of space.

    Example: GOW3/USRDIR/SOUNDS/STREAMS/CINEMATICS
    Delete entire contents => save 500mb.

    Remove all Bonus movies from USRDIR/CINEMATICS =>save 12gigs!!


    4)Uninstall Home
    Spoiler:
    When you first used Home it asked you how much space you would like to reserve for the game data for Home. It should be 500mb~a few gigs. So uninstall Home to save space and it being useless on CFW. You can reinstall it later if you wish to
    HOW?
    To delete, just go to the Home icon and hit triangle. From there and select delete.


    Got games you have finished? Games you no longer play? Well some games install data on your PS3, and it's eating up your int HDD space! If you want to play the game again, just run it, it'll reinstall/update (sacrifice a few mins of your time lol) but you'll definitely gain some major space.

    5)Remove old games installed data
    Spoiler:
    How? On the XMB, go to GAME > GAME DATA UTILITY > Choose game name > Triangle > DELETE!


    6)Remove old games installed updates
    Spoiler:
    Same as game data:
    How? On the XMB, go to GAME > GAME DATA UTILITY > Choose game name (it'll have DLC or update) > Triangle > DELETE!


    7)Remove unwanted trophies ( small risk)
    Spoiler:
    Small gain here, it's more of an annoyance than anything else. You gain ~1mb? per trophy folder delete. Blackotoo has made an awesome thread here. Check it out


    8) Downsample .bik videos!!
    Spoiler:

    By downsampling movies you will re-encoding them to lower the file size, achieve a huge gain in backup size.

    Will you lose video quality by downsampling? Yes.

    Will you be able to see the difference in the quality loss? Probably NOT.

    Althought you are lowering the video quality of the movie, you will
    not see any major differences in playback (without taking screenshots
    and zooming in on them, of course)...

    HOW to Downsampling *.BIK Movie Files:

    You'll need to download and install RAD Video Tools. It's free to download, get it here:
    Code:
    http://www.radgametools.com/down/Bink/RADTools.exe
    1) Run RAD Video Tools.

    2) Press the BINK VIDEO icon on the lower left.

    3) On the following screen, follow these steps:

    -Browse to find the video you want to downsample, if you've been following this tutorial then you know where to find the video files (sometime even a bik directory). ONLY CHOOSE FILES LARGE FILES (>50MB AT LEAST). RE-ENCODING TAKES TIME AND SMALLER FILE SIZES DO NOT PROVIDE A BIG GAIN.

    -Choose Compress to 40% this % percentage provides a good quality with a good gain on file sizes, and the quality loss was barely noticeable...
    You can experiment yourself and set it to HIGHER % for SMALLER SIZES, or LOWER % for BETTER QUALITY.

    -Click the BATCH icon on the right.


    -Depending on your file size, the compression % choosen, the power/speed of your CPU+GPU, this WILL TAKE TIME. It's better to leave it at night when you're NOT using your PC to use ALL YOUR SYSTEM RESOURCES.

    -Once you have re-encoded your new files you will need to RENAME them to remove "NEW_" from the beginning of the file name to REPLACE the old files with the ones you converted. Make sure you DID NOT REMOVE any movies accidentally.

    -YOU'RE DONE! CELEBRATE YOUR NEW-FOUND AWESOMENESS BY SOME AWESOME PS3 GAMING !



    9) Run PS3 Games with 4+GB Files from External HDD!!
    Spoiler:
    Several games require to boot ONLY from internal HDD as they require 4+gb files, which do NOT fit on a standard FAT32 HDD (aka, your external HDD). However many of those games use a format called '.psarc' to compress large files (like zip or rar files on PC).
    Luckily, those psarc can be decompressed into smaller files that do fit on your external HDD! Here's how (thanks to PS3NEWS for the guide!)

    1) Download PSARC.zip PlayStation Archive Utility (or PARC GUI v0.2 update by TeamKidneyBean if you prefer) from here:
    Code:
    http://www.multiupload.com/8HNLJKWBSH
    2) Extract zlib.net.dll and PSARC.exe to any folder.

    3) Find any files more than 4Gb for example /PS3_GAME/USRDIR/build/main/pak22.psarc (5,596,444,529 bytes)

    4) Copy pak22.psarc into zlib.net.dll and PSARC.exe directory.

    5) Extract pak22.psarc (just drag-n-drop pak22.psarc to PSARC.exe)

    6) Now copy pak22 folder with extracted files to gamefolder /PS3_GAME/USRDIR/build/main

    7) Now you can delete pak22.psarc.

    8) Copy PS3_GAME folder with game to your external fat32 usb hdd GAMEZ/Uncharted2/

    9) Use Backup Manager to load game, should work fine.

    WARNING!! NOT all games work off external HDD after having PSARC extracted! Please report any problems!

    Mass Effect 3 DOES NOT RUN AFTER EXTRACTING PSARC!! #thanks to jizzontits (sexi name!) for that tip

    This method has been tested by other users and confirmed working for:
    -God of War 1 & 2 PSN edition (Credits to jizzontits)
    Spoiler:
    the psn versions of god of war 1 and 2 work on external with gamedata tool if you extract the .psarc files. you have to move the extracted files out of the folder with the .psarc's name and put them right into the usdir folder.

    this might work with the bluray versions if the files are the same, but i don't have it so i'm just speculating.

    -Uncharted 2
    -Killzone 2
    -Front Mission Evolved (check guide):
    Spoiler:
    levels.psarc is 5.78GB. For external, extract levels.psarc with PSARC.exe & zlib.net.dll. Both files should be in the same place the psarc file is, i.e. levels.psarc in this case. You'll have a levels folder with folders and files in. Arrange the structure so that you have one FM folder under USRDIR. In FM you must have 2 folders, COMMON and PS3. In PS3 folder you have ANIMATION, EGRAPHICS, GAMEDB, LEVELS, MOVIES, PARTICLES, SCRIPTS, SOUND, and TEXT. In COMMON you have BIN, FONTS, LEVELS, LIPSYNC, and SOUND, and a bunch of files. Delete (or move to another folder in case you need it later) levels.psarc. Delete PSARC.exe & zlib.net.dll (or move it to anther folder if you want to use it on another game). Enjoy!

    -Tekken 6

    Fallout: New Vegas ~Save 4.8GB ~Credits to Popman, Danhibiki and tripellex from PS3news
    Spoiler:
    Do this before installing game data or delete it if you already have done. Also, update your game to latest patch (1.02) first to make sure it's less buggy
    The file you are looking for is called "fallout.ini" located in PS3_GAME/USRDIR, you can open it with notepad:-
    Code:
    Scroll down about halfway down the INI file, till you see the [Loading] section. In this section is a LONG entry called "sEssentialFileCacheListE=". This is where the game looks for files to cache over to the hard drive, hence taking forever to install and wasting space. So, take this line here:
     
    sEssentialFileCacheListE=DATA/FALLOUT - MISC.BSA, DATA/SYSUTIL/*.PNG, DATA/ICON0.PNG, DATA/PIC1.PNG, DATA/FALLOUTNV.ESM, DATA/FINAL_MASTER_XML.DAT, DATA/CREDITS.TXT, DATA/CREDITSWACKY.TXT, ... (etc, etc, etc, just select everything in this line)
     
    and replace it with:
     
    sEssentialFileCacheListE=DATA/SYSUTIL/*.PNG, DATA/ICON0.PNG, DATA/PIC1.PNG, DATA/FINAL_MASTER_XML.DAT, DATA/CREDITS.TXT, DATA/CREDITSWACKY.TXT
    Also, downsample this 350MiB intro file. (or delete if you have started the game before as fallout.ini marks it as played)

    Spoiler:
    This could help save up to 10GB
    NOTE: Before you delete or change any file, please make a backup of it, so you'll have it in the case something went wrong.


    1. Delete extras
    Spoiler:
    Open up the game folder and go into USRDIR. Search for the following files: EXTRASCIN1.PSARC and EXTRASCIN2.PSARC. Delete them both. These files carry nothing more than some unnecessary extra videos (making of, etc) and take a lot of space on the HDD.


    2. Delete multiplayer (optional) - only if you don't need it.
    Spoiler:
    Search the USRDIR folder for the following files: MULTIPLAYER.PSARC and MP-RESOURCES.PSARC and delete them.


    3. Edit Archives
    Spoiler:
    Now, again in the USRDIR folder, search for a file called ARCHIVES and open it with Notepad on your computer. You should see exactly 19 .PSARC names in lines and the number 19 above all.
    If you left out step 2, remove the following names from the text: EXTRASCIN1.PSARC, EXTRASCIN2.PSARC.
    If you included step 2, remove the both above and these: MULTIPLAYER.PSARC, MP-RESOURCES.PSARC

    Now change the number 19 to 17 if left out step 2, or to 15 if you included step 2, then check the examples below. If looks like it should, save it with notepad and put it back into your USRDIR folder.

    EXAMPLE:

    With step 2 left out, it has to look like this:

    17
    GAME.PSARC
    SHELL.PSARC
    INTROCIN.PSARC
    RESOURCES.PSARC
    HECA.PSARC
    CYN.PSARC
    PHI.PSARC
    TEM.PSARC
    CRTN.PSARC
    HRTN.PSARC
    STAT.PSARC
    STINT.PSARC
    LAN.PSARC
    FURY.PSARC
    MP-RESOURCES.PSARC
    MULTIPLAYER.PSARC
    TPPS.PSARC

    With step 2 included, like this:

    15
    GAME.PSARC
    SHELL.PSARC
    INTROCIN.PSARC
    RESOURCES.PSARC
    HECA.PSARC
    CYN.PSARC
    PHI.PSARC
    TEM.PSARC
    CRTN.PSARC
    HRTN.PSARC
    STAT.PSARC
    STINT.PSARC
    LAN.PSARC
    FURY.PSARC
    MP-RESOURCES.PSARC
    MULTIPLAYER.PSARC
    TPPS.PSARC



    4. Delete languages
    Spoiler:
    Warning: Your PS3 menu language must be the same language as in the game or it will freeze.
    Note: US versions might only have one language, euro releases usually have several.

    With the languages that you'd like to leave in mind, go into the USRDIR folder of the game and delete ANY others. For example:
    You want your game to be in english only. To do this, you simply delete ALL the .PSARC files that have any other language name on them (GERMAN.PSARC, MP-GERMAN.PSARC, RUSSIAN.PSARC, MP-RUSSIAN.PSARC, ITALIAN.PSARC, MP-ITALIAN.PSARC etc.)

    Leave only the files for your desired language(s), in this example it is: ENGLISH.PSARC and MP-ENGLISH.PSARC



    5. Edit Localized Archives
    Spoiler:
    After deleting the languages you don't need, look for a file called LOCALIZED_ARCHIVES in your USRDIR folder and open it with notepad.
    Here you'll see all the names of all language .PSARC files in lines and a number (file count)above all.
    Now remove every line that is NOT your language and set the right filecount.

    Example: You removed anything but english in your USRDIR, so you have only ENGLISH.PSARC and MP-ENGLISH.PSARC left there.
    That means you have to remove every line beside the ones for the english files and set the filecount on 2, since there's only 2 lines left.
    The final result will look like this:

    2
    ENGLISH.PSARC
    MP-ENGLISH.PSARC

    Example 2:

    You removed every language beside Italian and english in your USRDIR, which means you have to remove every line in LOCALIZED_ARCHIVES beside the ones for these languages and set the filecount to 4, since 4 lines will be left.

    The final result will look like this:

    4
    ENGLISH.PSARC
    MP-ENGLISH.PSARC
    ITALIAN.PSARC
    MP-ITALIAN.PSARC


    Remember: These are only examples, you can leave or delete as many languages as you like.

    After doing this, save the file with notepad, put it back into your USRDIR and you're done!



    FINALLY: DO NOT TRY TO PLAY THE GAME IN LANGUAGE YOU DELETED THE LANGUAGE PACK FOR! IT'LL CRASH!

    I am NOT responsible for causing your game to crash or to become unplayable. You should ALWAYS have a second BACKUP in case you f*ck up something. Use at your own responsibility.

    Not all games can be ripped. Some games dont have extra languages/bonus cutscenes that can be removed without losing gameplay value. I dont have it myself so I can't judge if you missed out on smthn
