I have a couple of games that I put on my HDD and I have to launch multiman to mount the disc and then play it.

With CFW2OFW I have found I can make an XMB file for most of my games so I can launch them directly from the XMB without having to open multiman and mount etc.

However the issue is that with some games like TES: Oblivion CFW2OFW doesn't work because the game doesn't have an update, which is required for CFW2OFW to work. (unless there's a way around that?)

Does anyone know a solution to this? I'd be very grateful.

Thanks

keep multiman, because a lot of artwork comes from that for webman mod, just don't use it. btw, irisman can created forwarders, I believe, if you prefer loading your games that way, but webman mod really is the easiest and most convenient way to load backups.

Work around is ISO or file format. Webman mod is quickest way to launch games. Iris manager + Multiman/Webman Coverpack + Cover flow is cleanest - You can try direct boot in irismanager, some games fail.

4.87.1 hfw and Newest Hen is the way to go if on non CFW'able ps3s.
