This is a small utility to make decrypted copies of the PS3 game discs, suitable for use in emulators.
It does require a compatible blu-ray drive and existence of a matching disc key to work.
- Compatible blu-ray drive
- Disc must have decryption key, either in redump database or in the IRD Library
- For binary release you might need to install .NET prerequisites
- See
Supported OS versions
andDependencies
sections in documentation
- See
- For source release you will need to have .NET 7.0 SDK installed on your machine
- Put
ps3-disc-dumper
executable in the folder you want your dumps to be in (GUI version has configurable settings) - Insert a PS3 disc in the compatible drive
- On Linux open terminal in the folder where you put the binary
$ chmod +x ps3-disc-dumper
to make it executable- Mount the disc (either through file manager or manually
$ mount
it to/media/...
)
- Start the dumper
- Wait for it to complete
By default all files will be copied in the folder where the dumper was started from (.\[BLUS12345] Game Title\
).
You can pass an optional parameter with the path if you want to dump in a custom location. This is mostly useful when ran from sources with $ dotnet run
.
If you have custom key or IRD file, you can put it in local cache (.\ird\
on Windows, ~/.config/ps3-disc-dumper/ird/
on Linux).
Logs can be found in /logs/
on Windows or in ~/.config/ps3-disc-dumper/logs/
on Linux.
There are different ways to get the dumper work:
- precompiled binaries
- make it executable on Linux, then simply run it
- running from sources:
$ git clone https://github.com/13xforever/ps3-disc-dumper.git
$ cd UI.Console
$ dotnet run
