ISO Tools
1- This Error mostly comes when you have a PKG file or ELP or wrap file for your rpcs3. If you have a folder format game, then convert it to an ISO format.

3- Once the tool is downloaded, unzip the downloaded files and go into the ISO Patcher folder. Open the PS3 ISO Pachter, and select the ISO file by clicking on the select button. Then select the IRD image file and click on the Patch button.
4- After that, open the rpcs3 and play the game in your rpcs3. For this, click on the Open button at the top left corner of the Rpcs3 window, go to the location where your game is installed, and select the game.
5- Once the game is added, then copy the serial number of the game.
6- Now open the IRD files folder then make sure that your game serial number and your IRD file serial number are the same.
7- After that, open the Patcher select the ISO file first, and select the right IRD file whose serial number is the same as the game’s serial number. Click on the patch button. To get the IRD file open your browser and type ps3 IRD file.
8- Once the patching is done, go to the 3K 3y ISO tool and click on ISO crypto in the top left corner of the ISO tool window. Now select the ISO file you want to decrypt and then wait for some time until the decrypting process completes.

Quick summary
Game trial not being converted to full game by an edat.
Details
I extracted the pkg of a game in folder form and copied the game’s edat file to RPCS3’s «exdata» folder. Then I added the game to RPCS3 using the «Add game» option. But when trying to run the game it shows «Booting failed: No bootable content was found» error.
This error doesn’t seem to occur in games(in folder form) that don’t have a trial.

One of the most trusted PS3 emulators, RPCS3 is the primary choice of many gamers. However, it comes with its fair share of errors that players face from time to time. Luckily, most errors are fixable with a bunch of workarounds and the no bootable content found issue in RPCS3 is also the same. If you are also struggling with this issue, consider reading this article to know how to fix it for good.
There can be countless issues when playing classic PS3 games on RPCS3. However, PS3 enthusiasts tend to overlook them as they can be fixed with some really easy workarounds. The no bootable content found issue is one of the most notorious as it restricts players from playing new games on their emulator. Anyways, as per reports, whenever players try to add a new game to the emulator and select the folder where the game is located, the emulator throws the No Bootable Content Found error. Well, there is no need to worry as this can be fixed easily.
How to fix RPCS3 no bootable content found issue
Encountering this issue is quite common so there is nothing to worry about. This error occurs whenever players try to add a game on their emulator which is downloaded as a PKG file type on their system. So, if you have tried to click on the Open option on the RPCS3 emulator and then select the game folder only to be greeted with this error, follow the given steps-
1) First of all, check if the game folder contains files of the PKG type. If yes, then you will have to install the package via the emulator to run the game.
2) For this, launch RPCS3 and head to the File tab on the top right corner of the screen.
3) Now, select the Install Packages/Raps option. A new window will open where you will have to head to the game’s folder.
4) Once you are inside the game’s folder, select the PKG file that has the highest size. After this, an installation will take place and you will be able to view the game on the emulator. However, that’s more to it.
5) You will have to install each and every PKG file inside the game’s folder manually to run the game. So, consider doing so.
6) After this is done, you can double-click on the newly installed game and play it just like in the old days.

Hello everyone, I have a problem, and I would really appreciate it if anyone can help with a fix.
I have followed the quick start guild on how to place my games in the rpcs3 folder. The problem is anytime I try to play it I get this error «Booting failed: disc could not be mounted properly. Make sure the disk is not in the dev_hdd0/game folder.
I placed Blu-ray in disc folder and psn in game folder.
Thanks in advance

This is not a valid dump. No idea what you did to dump but it makes no sense, read the Quickstart Guide and dump your game properly.

Now you’re using a known pirated copy of the game. Removed log file and locked thread.
1 week ban since you’ve blatantly lied after being told to do a clean dump.
