Had quite a scare today after i played a few matches on edal's tourney: right after i finished sending edal the results, the ps3 froze, i restarted it and then the BoP red "corrupted data"... saw this thread yesterday and thought the same was happening to me...but ejected the disc, restarted the ps3, and the game was ok again!

Im not!:(

I sent you a zip file.:-P

[P-51]

Thanks! I owe you!

[P-51]

Ok, im still looking for a save file if anyone has the ability to send me it PLEASE do!! (UK peoples only as US, EU, JP wont work)

Trk29: sorry yours didnt work, it may be because of the different regions, like you said.

You can have mine if you want (I've got the Bird Fan trophy and about 90% of the weapon unlocks, UK save)... But how do I extract it?

Don't worry, I'll have a little look tonight. Is it as simple as plugging in a hard drive, triangle on the save file and copy to HD?

Oooh! Thanks mate! Dont kow wheter the bird fan trophy will pop up though?

Yup all you have to do is:
1) Plug in an external memory source (mem card, hard drive etc)
2) Go to the save and hit Triangle -> coppy -> hit X on the USB device
3) Plug into the computer and ZIP the file
4) Send it via email (you will have to work out how to attach if you dont know, unless you use outlook express.) to lolitsbeenfixednow@hotmail.co.uk


Thanks!!! I owe you big time!

Thanks!!! I owe you big time!

Hehe no probs :) I'll try it probably around half 8 or 9...

P.S: you might get the Bird Fan trophy... let me know.


EDIT: oooh, quick question: have you got the DLC? I have, so I don't know how it will cope if you haven't... It might just ignore the extra data...? If you've got it too then don't worry about it.

[P-51]

I will.

No i dont, but as you have to download something seperate for that (i think that goes into your Game data - not the save data the other one above PS & PS2 virtual cards) I don't think it mearges the save & the download. It would be cheaper if it did! :cool:

[InfiniteStates]

No, I'm just thinking because my save has mission progress for the DLC which might confuse your game. But it might not... the dev's are good engineers so I would think it will cope.

Well surely it would only read that if i have the missions - which i dont! :confused:

I'll tell you how it goes!

[InfiniteStates]

Emailed :) Good luck...

(I'd edit your message to remove your email if you can - bots or a-holes might abuse it...)

[P-51]

Good idea but you quoted me :P
Sticking on my PS3 now

[P-51]

It worked but - it recognised that it was not my data and said i wont be able to save or earn new trophies... Ohh well! Ill just have to start again if i want the plat for it..

[InfiniteStates]

Fixed your email in my quote :)

What you could try, is keep the file I sent, but delete it from your PS3, start a new save and check the filename against the one I sent you. If it's different, change the file I sent you to the same as your new one. Then try again.

Worth a try I guess... I don't know what mechanics are in place to stop trophy cheating.

[InfiniteStates]

Did it work out at all dude? Or did you just bite the bullet and restart a new save?


EDIT: LOL just noticed your email censoring :)

[P-51]

Havnt tried yet. Will probs start a new save though..

[Ghillied raptor]

I had the same thing happen to me, now I've got to do everything all over again.I was trying to get the K-4 too, now it's going to take a much longer time.Does anyone here know how to restore the data?

[InfiniteStates]

You could get P51 to forward you my save, then ask him what he did to get it to work?


Just out of interest: are you guys with corrupt saves turning your console off at the back?

[P-51]

Pass us your emal in a PM and ill forward you a save :D

I turn it off properly (press the button on the front) why?

[InfiniteStates]

Because using the power switch on the back is the quickest and easiest way to corrupt lots of things. You must have been really unlucky then...:-x

[P-51]

I never turn it off at the back.. It has corrupted my whole system before like that..

i know that too well my ps3 actualy crashed everytime i pressed the ps button and wouldnt play certain games because of turning it off at the back
