[TIP] Easy way to make hashcalc (cobra) work on Windows

$

Basically hashcalc from cobra sources don't have too much dependencies, only thing that is needed is unself2.exe file. But unself have more dependencies it need cygwin, ps3 keys, and correctly set system variables. Of course for some devs is not problem to do this, but... i'm lazy so i found easy way to make it work. :)

Why this way is easiest? Because you don't need to set any system variables like in original f0f tools, here PUAD do this for you. Because we gonna use unself_PUAD.exe modified by @Evilnat all paths to cygwin files, keys, etc. will be already set to PUAD instalation folder.

Requirements:

- Puad GUI v1.5 Installed
- hashcalc.exe

First time preparing:

Make folder (for example C:\hashcalc) with hashcalc.exe inside, now copy file unself_PUAD.exe from (in this case for 64 bit install):
Code:

C:\Program Files\Akatsuki\PUAD GUI\bin\ps3tools
to
Code:

C:\hashcalc And rename it to unself2.exe
Now we are should be able to run hashcalc without problem. To test this put .self (eg. vsh.self) file that need to be checked in to C:\hashcalc. Now in hashcalc folder press and hold shift and press right button on mouse and select Open Command Window Here, now type:
Code:

hashcalc vsh.self
If everything is fine then you should see two hashes of your file. Like this one:
cmd a.jpg
In most cases we need only first one.

Why i need this? Hashes need to be added to modulespatch.h file before compiling stage2 of cobra add on. Without correct hashes is impossible to make working cobra cfw. Also is imposible to make correct spoof or remove epilepsy warning for cobra cfw without editing/calculating this patches again.
