Just checking this is the right folder before zipping again (zipping the main BCUS98114 folder)

Nope, that's the game folder. Savedata is in another path. I'm not at home to check but from memory, it's dev_hdd0\home\<userId>\savedata\BCUS98114 or something.

You using RPCS3 or is that ftp to your PS3 console? If it's RPCS3, there should be a tool ror getting to the save data (somewhere in the menu bar at the top). But if you tried to open the game data dir in the editor instead of the save data, that would certainly explain the error you are getting.

damn thats just my bad XD user error indeed, will check it out now . using RPCS3, so embarrassing lmao

edit: it worked i guess im just braindead, really appreciate all the assistance from @Razerman & @Sonygamer455 , absolute legends and more than helpful

Glad to see you got it worked out! I guess the takeaway here is you were trying to load your game data instead of the save data. My tutorial for getting all the DLC is in my signature if you need instructions on getting the DLC.

Hey guys. Just thought of something. Lets say someone is using the PS3 Emulator (RPSC3 I believe its called) and they are playing GT5 and decide to update to 2.11 . Is it possible for the DLC method to work towards the Emulator or is it PS3 only? Im really curious 🤔👀

 

[Sonygamer455]

I think it does work on RPCS3, though I have never tried it.

 

[UltraDave1992]

I would like to know. If you can.

I would like to know. If you can.

It's the same game, it works the same. The only difference is that the save data doesn't have the Sony layer encryption on but I recall I had support for both types of saves. And even my editor didn't have support for it, you could use other tools to make the save Sony layer encrypted so that it would be supported (e.g. for other save editors out there that were made before RPCS3).

While I see a lot of things that have been done with hybrids in GT5, something I don't see very often is people painting stock wheels and while Tim mentioned it earlier, there hasn't been much talk about it in here. Some cars have stock wheels that CAN be painted despite the game not allowing you to do so normally. There was a glitch people used to do back in the day that allowed them to paint stock wheels. While it's long since been patched, we have save editors that allow us to do this of course.

You can find a list of cars that allow this in these two threads:

pre 2.01 cars that can be stock painted (wheels)?

List of cars that can be stock painted (wheels) Premium model only. I know about these (13) ---v Maserati S '08 Lancia Delta Mitsubishi T.M '99 BMW concept tii Silvia (S 13)

Cars with painted stock rims

*All clear, I am back again ;-)* There is a way to paint the cars and rims in GT5. And this works on a selected few cars with stock rims. It was earlier possible with some cars trough a glitch, but the list was shorter then. :) This topic is not about how that is done at this point! So if...

Of course, I got curious and decided to test out a bunch of these cars by painting their wheels red on 2.11 just to see if it could still be done and this was the result:

Spoiler

There are many more I could cover, but I didn't find out about the others until after I took these screenshots. I intentionally chose red so the result would be easily noticeable and as you can see, these cars still work!

Now here is a little-known fact, the High End Performance G37 used to have paintable wheels via this glitch I mentioned earlier, but it was patched for some reason. I attempted to paint them on 2.11 and this was the result:

However, going back to 2.00 on the same save game, here was how it looked then:

Through my own research, I learned this car was patched in 2.04 so its wheels could no longer be painted and Razerman believes they updated the model to do this. Fortunately, we're in a day and age where modifying the game data is doable, and theoretically, I imagine just replacing the model from the earlier version of the car would allow them to be painted again on later updates, but I have yet to try this to see if it works.
