Hi,

My name is Stelios and i am working on PES/NBA 2K modding communities for PC. We do lot of work on hexediting files for those games and making editing possible. I am interesting on doing so for PS3, even though i know Blu-ray burning isn't possible, and i would like to find ways to understand a file's structure shown on a hex editor...

On PC, hex representation is pretty much simple (little-endian). But on PS3 things seem much more different due to different CPU architecture (Cell Processor). How should i find any clue about byte representation (for integer, long values etc.) on PS3? Any information or link to resources, documentation would be really helpful. But for now i can't find much thing. I don't even know how to search for it on Google.

Hope you can help me. Also, take a look on our site www.moddingway.com, if you like.

Thanks, in advance...

There's TONS of info on the CBE out there... manuals, programming guides, environments... you ain't looking if you claim you can't find anything. :P

The Cell is Big-Endian, like all other PPCs. Some model PPCs can be set for little-endian operation, but that was never used outside of the old Windows NT for PPC.
