Has anyone managed to backup Assassin's Creed? Why can't be jailbroken?

I am trying to backup Assassin's Creed (jailbreak PS3key). I know that it is one of the games that cannot get jailbroken. Any info about that? what is the problem? Why isn't sony using Assassin's Creed as a way to make all PS3 games unplayable under jailbreak? Has anyone any idea which is that element that make this game unplayable? Could sony use this element to make all games unplayable?

A lot of questions ... I know... I am just curious... Any help would be really appreciated.

 

Well with cfw out and working on 3.55 and with the ley out I though i'd try testing this out.

But no luck still doesnt work. though on psjcl.com it shows a couple claiming it to work with patched eboot. but doubt this will work on cfw.

idk why this games doesnt backup when the 2nd game and brotherhood do....

 

Have you looked here?

http://homebrewps3.com/downloads/

It has some files to be replaced for Assassin’s Creed BLES00158 3.55 that suppose to make it work. If you would like to have a look...

I am on 3.41 and I cant test it...

 

Thats strange because if your talkin about AC brotherhood I backuped and played that entire game on my ps3 jailbreaken on 3.41 without any mods, just PL3 payload. I will give it a go on my 3.55 and post my results.

 

Oh my bad I just notice your talking about the first one. I don't have my disc for that anymore so I can test that one.

 

Doesnt give much detail on the installation of those files. Also I dont think those are for the current cfw, I'm not sure.

I'm curious as to why the first game just wont load, whilst the new ones do.

 

I think that it has some kind of weird, non-standard method of starting...and no one who is able to fix it wants to spend their time fixing an issue with just one game that very few people still play.

 

A very good question was asked here by you friend...same doubt eats me..

I was crazy after I played Assassin's Creed 2 on ps3, and I badly wanted the first part to see how it all started, but to my sadness, it wasn't working and I came to know only after I had downloaded a whopping 10 Gigs of game in a week's time...was a pain...and just to know that it doesn't run, I was mad at the uploader and didn't understand why people upload the games dat don't work, and evn if they have to why don't they mention its status in the upload!

Anyways, I ordered a used one from ebay. But not I saw this site, where they claim to have found the fix for the EU version of the game. Maybe you should check this out too:

Let me know if it works or not..

 

Assassins Creed 1 and a lot of other black screen games work now. You have to use multiman manager and install the games on an external hdd. Then have multiman emulate teh backup as a virtual bluray disc.

 

@bigo93: Can you explain that method you mentioned, or can you show us some link with some tutorial for that? Thanks for the hint

 

How do we install games on EXTERNAL? I only know that the ps3 automatically installs all game data to INTERNAL. Please let me know the procedure to install on EXTERNAL. Thanks.

 

Attach external hdd, MUST be formatted under fat32 not ntfs.
Start backup manager.
Put in game disc you want to copy
Select copy
When is asks to install to internal hdd select no
It will then ask to install on usbhddxxx select yes
Game is copied onto external drive.

To run black screen games like assassins creed 1, install to ext hdd, and you have to use multiman backup manager, then to launch press select+X not just X, if will then ask if you want to emulate blurray on external, click yes and assassins creed 1 will work, aso will some other black screen games.

 

just tried it this method out and can confirm it does work, you must have an original ps3 game in disc drive. Thanks to who ever figured this out been waiting to play the fist AC before the second or BH

 

Oh, thank you very much for the black screen solution! I'll give it a try and post back.

And I know that games can be Backed Up (Installed as said by you)on External using the method u mentioned, but I was talking about Installing the Game data (and not Backing it up) on external which is done for the first time wen u launch any game on ps3. That game data installs on the internal hdd eating up the space which is just 120 gb in my case. So it would be very nice if we had some way to install a game data on external hdd.

I hope I am clear this time.

 

I COPY THAT!! Yoohoo!!! Here I come ASSASSINS CREED 1..lol

 

No game data atm can only be installed on internal hdd. Sry for the confusion by "install to ext" I meant backup the games to an external drive.

ANd yes I forgot to mention you do need an original game in the drive to play backups. I know you can set some managers to discless, but whats the point, just buy a cheap game or use a game you dont like.

 

Nope, doesn't work for me
I am using ps3break 1.1 hermes v4b payload, MULTIMAN latest one, original BD in the drive, I pressed L1+SELECT, game launched saying DATA IS CORRUPTED, still it showed the LOADING SCREEN, but didn't move further, and I had to restart after a long wait.

Any suggestions?

I tried on both the US as well as EU versions of the game.

 

Try pressing select+x to run the game instead of L1+Select

 

Still not working

 

why are you using the ps3break dongle? Are you still on 3.41? s it not better to update to Kmeaw 3.55?

IF you dont want to upgrade to Kmeaw 3.55 then try running the lv2 patcher before running multiman. Also which version of multiman are you running, dont use 1.16 use the one just before that release.
