Arcturus said: @nordlead: Having a program that could gather trophy information and dump it into a database or spreadsheet would definitely save a lot of time, which in turn would allow me to focus on creating and posting new charts and additional stats. My guess, like fadetoone, is that if it were easy to do, we would have seen something developed by now.
How much effort is it to set up a network sniffer to see what the PS3 is doing? |
none at all. I use sniffers at work all the time to debug my software. However, at work I know how each message is constructed which makes interpreting things easy. The hard part is figuring out what the messages actually mean, and how to reconstruct messages you actually want.
Once you know what the replies from the server means, it would be a piece of cake to write a program that dumped that information into excell.
Later I'm going to look into the homebrew scene for the PS3. Maybe they have some insight into the PS3 network protocol.
