@sithlord i can get the .psv file to be read by my ps3 but i cant copy it off of my usb cause it keeps saying "the data is corrupted" any ideas on how to fix it?
 
i copied it from my ps3 to the usb stick so it should be signed. just besure you have the correct one, they all have very similar names. other then that i have no suggestion. that is the exact behavor of incorrectly signed saves.
 
they are all Caps , just about any file from the ps3. idk if they are case sensitive but just in case make them all caps.
 
wait never mind i just re-downloaded it and tried again and now it copied off fine   :evil:

i think if you look in the FAQ there is another way to get psp to sign the file , im not sure because i don't have a psp to try with .

i can't seam to find it in the thread but -Ric- had writting how he gets files back to his psp (also going to add to the FAQ, right now)

How to edit your Final Fantasy 7 PSP save files with Black Chocobo (Custom Firmware only)

Requirements:

A Playstation Portable with custom firmware (i did the tests on 6.60 but it should work fine on any)
CWCHEAT plugin.
Usb cable/Memory Card reader (should be obvious why..)
Winrar (or any other extracting program)

HOW TO:

1st you need to download CWCHEAT.. You can use this link if you want just the plugin for the save editing: http://www.mediafire.com/?uz4fn4qvinwc748

Or you can use this one incase you want the full version of CWCHEAT which allows you to add/use cheat codes on playstation portable/playstation games: http://www.mediafire.com/?osxfb4i4s86406q

after the download is complete, connect your psp to the computer and go to: G:\seplugins
Note: its G:\ on my computer but it can be any other letter on yours.

Then extract the CWCHEAT file with winrar or any other program you chose to use, open the seplugins folder from the extracted archieve and you will have another folder called "cwcheat"
(which contains 3 folders and 4 files)

Move that cwcheat folder to the playstation memory card under the location mentioned before (G:\seplugins)

After that, on your seplugins folder in the PSP memory card, there should be a file called "pops.txt"
Open it on notepad and add this line to it: ms0:/seplugins/cwcheat/cwcheatpops.prx 1
Exactly like that!

Now unplug the playstation portable from the computer and start Final Fantasy 7 on it

After the game is on the "New Game/Load Game" screen, Press and HOLD the select key for some seconds until a screen like this appears: http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_5EjlNYy8SjA/SXKIsBhPgtI/AAAAAAAAAEQ/1RJiNNltOtU/s320/cwcheat-01.jpg

Then click on "Manage Memory Cards"
and chose "Save memory card 1 to memory stick"

then you should see below "Last operation: OK!!"

now leave the cwcheat menu and exit the game.

Connect the psp to the computer again and open black chocobo
click on File>open and then chose the extracted save on your psp memory card that should be on E:\seplugins\cwcheat\mc

edit it however you wish and then File>Save on Black Chocobo.

unplug the PSP from the computer and run final fantasy 7 on it

Once again, when on the "New Game/Load Game" screen, hold the select key for a few seconds until the CWCHEAT shows up and go to Manage Memory Cards

Then click on "Load Memory Card 1 from memory stick" and the last operation should say OK!!

Exit the CWCHEAT menu, click on load game and voila, your edited save file will be there

not sure , could be several things. im sure its something simple like forgetting to save, not coping the file or something like that. besure you have the file signed or it will not work on your psp. see above post. also i don't have a psp so im not sure if you need to put the save in a certain spot or not.
 
um by chance have u fixed the psp save problem, i have version 1.9.51 and it says bout updating a file when i try to save it.
 
Hi all,

I just tested the last trunk, and for the french SCES00868 version, everything seems fine, even the slot copy.
I'll test more extensively ASAP, but I wanted to let you know that your fix worked.

here is an attempt to answer your question,however since im not entirely sure what your asking ill answer the question of

"can you save psp files that are signed and will work on my psp without doing anything else"

No. You need to have a psp or ps3 sign the file. look at the FAQ for two methods for signing the files.

it depends on what you main progress is set to . and what world map is being loaded. only one map will allow the bronco to be shown . on all others it will be there just invisible. (since it should have loaded the highwind model)
 
well i just got it and i had use another editer to make it reappear. i had to check a box to make it work maybe you should add something like that?

there is something like that its in the location tab , in the world map section.

what editor did you use..?
what changes did you make?
what changes did it make in your file if you don't know that can you provide both  the unmodified and modified saves so i can see what changed?

im pretty sure that what ever editor you used changes also other stuff . cause like i said the model displaing depends on what world map your on , and that seams to be based on what your global progress is.
 
@sithlord48 the save file works perfectly but after i got to the diamond weapon part i just cant seem to be able to make him appear any ideas on how to fix this?

nope idk what you edited.

edit: if you have the unmodified file you can import that one and the modified one in to a .ff7 or any other  multislot save type and use the diff table to diff the entire slot and then use the savemap to find what the values got changed (and to what).

looking at what i think are you saves it seams you changed the time and clicked to kill emerald ? emerald's premature death might be causing your issue. but im not sure if these are you saves or just random psv files i happened to have had. (creation dates seam correct)
