Fetch disc keys from Redump.org as alternative decryption method #16

Closed SlyCooperReloadCoded closed 2 years ago

I recently got the Japanese Sly Collection added to the Redump database because I was told that this tool automatically grabs disc keys from there, and this disc doesn't have an IRD and wasn't on Redump, so I finally got it added to the database.

Then I tested this tool and it still couldn't find the key. I then tried dumping a game which did have an IRD but disabling my internet adapters so it couldn't connect to the internet. My suspicions were confirmed - it doesn't do this, rather it seems to look inside the EXE for keys.

Would it be possible to search Redump.org as a fallback, or have a "Download Latest Keys" button in the tool that redownloads them from Redump.org?

ps3 disc keys are not public, this is why I asked for permission to distribute snapshot with the dumper, which is being periodically updated

until keys are not public and unavailable without an account, there won't be any autoupdate possible

So.... how does it find keys then? Embedded in the executable? Can my key be used at all?

13xforever commented 3 years ago

you can always put your disk key in the ird/key cache folder

You said it's being updated. Can I provide my key to be added to the executable since I'm assuming that's how it works? That's the whole reason why I went through all the trouble of getting it added to Redump.

redump will publish new snapshot at some point and I'll bundle it at some point, if it isn't already
