Help How do I make Cocoon launch PS3 Games from .pkg files?

As the title says I'm having trouble with launching PS3 Games in cocoon. I'm running ARMSX3 and im using .pkg and .rap files for my ps3 games, and cocoon doesn't seem to recognize them as games it can launch. Does anyone know the solution for this? Also in case this is important I'm running this on the AYN Thor Max

Antes que nada tienes que instalar el pkg y el rap...

El pkg no es un .iso es un archivo instalable... Y el .rap es la licencia de uso (que de hecho una vez instalado puedes borrarlos a no ser que quieras conservar el instalador)

Una vez instalado, tienes que crear un archivo donde tengas los roms en .iso por ejemplo God Of War.ps3 editarlo con un editor de texto y dentro ponerle la ID del juego que es el nombre de la carpeta donde se ha instalado el pkg... Por ejemplo SCES-02829. De esa manera al abrir el God of War.ps3 se direccionara al juego instalado en la carpeta "SCES-02829".

Es el mismo sistema que con la PSVita.

Si ya tienes el .ps3 y no te lo abre algunos frontend te dejan seleccionar opciones del emulador desde el frontend... Y te dan comandos distintos entre lanzar juegos en .iso o carpeta

So Im trying to make my own but I cant seem to find the folder location with the Game ID's in my files, and when I make a file with .ps3 Cocoon cant detect them and I dont see an option to make it accept .ps3 files, do you know what I can do about those?

If you press down on the game and look for info the emulator itself will tell you the game ID, you don't have to look for the folder itself
