Update your existing savedata

There are 3 methods to updating your existing savedata/save files:

  1. Use n0llptr's Playstation-5-Save-Mounter [Recommended and easiest-to-use]
  2. Edit or recreate a new save file using the steps in SETUP.md [If your FW isn't supported by the Save Mounter]
  3. Restore an updated backup with new(er) savedata

Simple steps to use save mounter:

Make sure to read the README.md on the Playstation 5 Save Mounter repo.

  1. If you jailbreak using one of the Artemis/Lua games, you will need to exit the game after the exploit has run. If using any other method to jailbreak, then proceed to Step 1.
    • Follow the next steps from the home menu with no games running on your console
  2. After jailbreaking, you need to load ps5debug on the console. Use at least version v1.0b5 or newer.
    • Use a payload sender or load it along with the exploit chain.
  3. Run the Save Mounter and enter your console's IP address -> You should see Status: Connected at the bottom of the Save Mounter
  4. Click Patch and you should see Status: Patched Shellcore
  5. Click Setup and once you see Status: Setup Done, then select your user from the drop down menu.
  6. Click Get Games and once you see Status: Refreshed Games, then select the CUSA according to your game.
  7. Click Search and you should see Status: Found X Save Directories (Usually X = 1, unless you have >1 save)
  8. Cilck Mount and you should see Status: Save Mounted in /savedataX (Usually X = 0, unless you mount multiple saves)
  9. Now open your FTP Client and connect to your console via port 1337 (if using etaHEN) or 2121 (if using ftpsrv).
  10. Navigate to /mnt/pfs/ and you should see savedata_<user id>_<game CUSA>_savedata directory.
    • If the savedata directory doesn't exist there, check /mnt/sandbox/<game CUSA> and you should see it there.
  11. In the savedata directory, you can replace the files you want to update. Usually recommended to delete the existing files and copying new ones over.
    • WARNING: Do not delete sce_sys directory for any reason. Any other file or directory is okay to delete.
  12. You can now go back to the Save Mounter and click 'Unmount' and wait until you see Status: Save Unmounted
    • Note: If you do not unmount the save before launching the game, it has a high chance of corrupting it.
  13. Once save is unmounted, click Unpatch and you should see Status: Unpatched Shellcore
    • Note: Again it is important to unpatch otherwise it has a high chance of corrupting it.
