Install E3 NOR Flasher in PS3 Slim

Posted on February 16, 2014by Steven

The E3 NOR Flasher is a user-friendly tool designed to help downgrade most PlayStation 3 consoles, making it possible to install custom firmware or recover from system issues. While it simplifies the process significantly compared to traditional methods, it’s important to understand that downgrading still requires time, precision, and careful handling. Unlike the advanced method of soldering over 60 wires directly onto the NOR chip—which is risky and typically reserved for professionals—the E3 Flasher offers a much safer, cleaner approach.

In this guide, I’ll walk you through the steps to properly install the E3 NOR Flasher into your PS3. You’ll learn how to disassemble the console, connect the flasher, and prepare everything for a successful downgrade. With some patience and the right tools, you’ll be able to unlock new possibilities for your PS3 without the need for expert-level soldering skills.

Downgrade any CFW PS3 to 3.55 or any other CFW

Posted on February 9, 2014by Steven

Switching to a different Custom Firmware (CFW) distribution on your PS3 can often be a challenging process, especially because not all CFW versions fully support the latest system updates or features. Compatibility issues can lead to unexpected errors, functionality loss, or even bricking your console if the transition is not handled carefully. Whether you’re looking to upgrade to a newer CFW with enhanced capabilities or want to explore alternative builds for specific benefits, it’s essential to follow a reliable procedure to ensure a smooth installation.

This guide is designed to help you navigate the complexities of installing any other CFW version on your PS3, including the option to revert back to the classic 3.55 firmware—often considered the gold standard for stability and homebrew compatibility. By following these steps, you’ll be able to switch firmware versions confidently, preserving your system’s integrity and unlocking the full potential of your console’s customization options.

The E3 NOR Flasher is a very easy tool to downgrade or dual-boot your PS3. However, your E3 hardware is limited to downgrading only 1 PS3 and was made for one-time installation.

Nazi_Zombie_SmallFarm Source Code

Posted on July 14, 2013by Steven

During the development of my custom Call of Duty: World at War zombie map nazi_zombie_eisden, I found myself inspired to start a second, smaller map that I hoped would offer a fast-paced and tightly packed survival experience. That project was codenamed “Smallfarm”—a compact, rural zombie map built with simplicity and replayability in mind.

Initially, the idea was to create a counterpoint to Eisden: where Eisden is detailed, complex, and lore-driven, Smallfarm was meant to be the kind of map you could quickly jump into for a short but intense game session with friends. A gritty, claustrophobic farm surrounded by undead—it seemed like the perfect challenge.

However, like many creative projects, reality caught up.

Nazi_Zombie_Eisden, Zombies invade Belgium!

Posted on April 20, 2013by Steven

Nazi Zombie Eisden is a custom zombies map I created under the name NiiGHTMARE, and it holds a very personal touch—it’s based on a small house that belonged to my grandmother. Every hallway, doorway, and cramped corner in this map was inspired by real memories, which I’ve transformed into a chaotic, intense zombie survival experience. While the layout may be modest in scale, don’t be fooled: this map offers tight, adrenaline-fueled gameplay that will keep you and your team constantly on edge.

Designed with 2 to 3 players in mind, Eisden is ideal for those who enjoy close-quarter action and rely on quick reflexes, smart positioning, and solid teamwork. The compact environment forces you to stay alert, move together, and make fast decisions—there’s little room for error. Whether you’re a seasoned zombie slayer or just looking for a fun, fast-paced challenge with friends, Nazi Zombie Eisden is sure to deliver. So grab your gear, hold your ground, and prepare to make a final stand in a place where the walls may be familiar—but the threat is anything but.

Here are a few weapon skins I created for Call of duty 2. These skins come in .IWD file format and should be placed inside your Call Of Duty 2/Main folder. I created a few weapon skins but the most popular ‘Rusty Smoke Grenade’ was used in many different “skin packs” later.
