With the PS2, Winning Eleven (or Pro Evolution Soccer) made it a breeze with patches and all that. The PS3 is however a different ball game, so here is how you can update it with the latest transfers, kits & club logos.
Installing basic option files for PS3
- Download the option file of your choice (usually compressed version)
- Use either WinRAR or WinZip to unzip it.
- Find the PS3 folder, which should contain folders for the jerseys and an option file
- Copy the whole PS3 folder and its sub folders, to a pc formatted usb stick (Note that the PS3 folder has to be located on the root of the drive. eg. H:\PS3)
- Plug the USB drive into the PS3
- Under the game menu in your PS3, look for the save data utility
- This folder should contain all the saves for your games
- Delete all existing WE/PES edit data/kit pngs (if you want to keep your save cups/leagues/bal, etc just leave it)
- Find the usb device (or similar) at the top of the menu
- Enter and you should see all the pes files (an edit data file, and many images of kits)
- Press triangle on one and copy that to your PS3 (your main user profile on your PS3)
- Repeat this for all the files (yes unfortunately there is no easier way to do this!)
- Ensure that you have deleted your old option file and copied the new one over
- Load your game
- PES/WE will create new user system data (unless you also kept your old system data which you can)
- Edit data will load automatically. Start playing with your new kits & emblems!
Installing Chants on PS3
- You need to create a “playlist” at your PS3 XMB called KONAMI_PES with no spaces (when you have typed that in your onscreen keyboard, don’t press start because it will automatically add a space at the end of it, instead press L1 3/4 times then press start)
- Go to your USB device in XMB music, press X, then Triangle to “dispaly all”, files will be in MUSIC folder.
- Copy chants to KONAMI_PES playlist.
- Start game, go to chants, mp3 library, all your chants should be in there.
