The age old How to Transfer an Option File Thread? (PS3)

[BrettMadden]

New to PS3 gaming. I have PES 2011 and there seems to be a really nice MLS OPTION FILE that I would like to try out however I understand that transferring the file (or files) is a bit of a 'process'. Are there resources/tutorials I should review? Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks-in-advance.

How to transfer the option file:

1. Download the Option File
2. Unzip it (I unzip it onto my desktop using WinRAR)
3. Insert USB stick into PC
4. Make a new folder on your USB called PS3, then inside that create another folder called SAVEDATA
5. Put the OF into the SAVEDATA folder, so on your USB you will have PS3>SAVEDATA>all the folders from the OF
6. Plug USB stick into PS3
7. Go to Game-Saved Data Utility
8. Find your USB stick
9. All the kits etc should show as single files, along with an Edit Data file, and a System Data file
10. Start at the first kit, press Triangle while you are on it, a Copy option will appear
11. Copy onto your PS3
12. Repeat for all kits (this may take about 10 minutes but it is worth it)
13. Also copy the Edit Data from the OF, but NOT the System Data
14. Unplug your USB stick
15. Load up PES2012
16. Voila!

DEFT, thanks pal, will give this a go.

I have read that the transfer process will be easier in PES12, with only a single folder to be moved over. In the meantime, I'll try and enjoy the MLS file. Cheers!

If it is supposed to be easier I haven't seen it yet. I stil had to copy files one at a time.

Can you also unzip by using UnRarX?

True. I think they lied to us. Haha

Also just to avoid any potential confusion, if you're using connoll's MLS file you dont need to create a PS3 folder. The package already has it.

How does one get Connoll's MLS file for PES2012?
