All I know is that patching on PS3 is "currently" very limited.

Ok, this ones for those having problems with Vista Ultimate x64.

After months of struggle trying to apply the mighty Deckz patch I came to a holt and could not take any more mental strain. I was spending hours and days trying to solve my problems patching and game crashing of PES2008 on mu Windows Vista Ultimate x64 machine. I came to ripping my hair out of my head with no light on the end of the tunnel. So I used the old mthod of switching back to PES2006. After playing on my friend PS3 I decided to give it another go, so I bought a new Harddrive and installed Windows XP Professional with a fresh version of PES2008 as I could resist the new gameplay engine.

I then installed the Deckz " best in the world patch " and Walaaaa, it worked like a sexy bitch. I started playing hours of fun and endless fun and more fun of a game with the cool looking patch. Only thing was I had to swap harddrives everytime to use Vista.

I then thought to my self "what could this silly bug be that keeps causing the problem of crashing and patching issues"? I tryed all sorts before but this time took it step at a time, and this is what I did.

1) Re-installed PES 2008 on Vist x64 HDrive
2) Then deleted the img folder after installing and tried running the game from DVD, obviously it wouldnt work as the files were missing from programfiles.
3) replaced the files from the DVD back onto the HDrive, img folder.
4) Ran the game but still crashed everyime I went to prem league or other leagues apart from international games, they seemed ok.
5) Still no joy even with fresh file in the img folder from the disk.
6) Strange...Now this copy is my second one of PES2008 just to make sure, i covered almost every angle, the volleys the long shots the step overs damn there was no winning goal....
7) UNTIL! I tried this.
8) The game being fully installed I went into program files /KONAMI folder and right clicked on the pes2008.exe file that launches the game.
9) I then chose run as administrator.
10) Strange...the game loaded up and when i went to the exhibition match the xbox pad had appeared just like the original install with all the emblems as fake ones that come with the game. I selected english league and it worked (no crashes). I then select Man United Vs Arsenal. No problem.
11) played a full game and no crashes.

If you have probs with Vista try what I have done.

Happy Bunny!

Great patch. Thank you very much.

Can anyone point me to a crowd patch that makes them sound louder, better?

Sob sob sob. Run what as administrator in vista 64bit? I did all the patching and some stuff worked (like the championship players +team names + some kits) although all the team badges for championship were still french. + majority of the premiership teams had chelseas kits. I`m confused, i think I`m patching ok but I just need the solution spelt out to me for this vista problem. It is very upsetting as I love the game and want Hull City to rise to glory through the master league!

p.s I`ve tried running the pro evolution 2008.exe with RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR and it didnt work. Also I have updated to patch 1.2 is this part of the problem? I had to do this in order to get pro evolution to work with my 8800 GTX. on a side point any widescreen fixes for patch 1.2?
Anyways blah blah blah. I`d appreciate the help as this looks like the coolest patch out there right now.
Thanks
Mike

Is your Vista a 64-bit system?

About screen resolution, you have to install KitServer to unlock the options that were previously disabled by Konami.
To download the early version of KitServer without other add-ons, visit here:

OK I see your going through what i've been through and i know how it feels.

Try this.

0) Back up your game saves.

1) Uninstall the game using the disk not the control panel. Insert the PES8 disk let it autorun then choose uninstall from the boot up menu.

2) After uninstall is complete - Go to the KONAMI folder under program files and delete it. In some cases the KONAMI folder may have been removed during the uninstall but double check anyway.

3) Click start button on task bar and go to run, then type regedit and click ok.

4) when regedit opens, Click on edit and then go to Find. A pop will apear type pro evolution soccer 2008 and click on - Find Next.

5) When the search has finnished (may take a while...) regedit will highlight your findings on the right side of the screen. Delete anything that is associated with Pro EVolution Soccer 2008.
WARNING! "make sure you DO NOT delete any files apart from those to do with PES2008"

6) Pressing the F3 button will take you to the next search to find anthing to do with PES2008, as the files are scattered around. Dont worry not much to delete.

7) Once your search is over regedit will alert you that there are no more files found for your search.

8) Now put your disk into the drive if not already in. Install the game but install it as administrator. You can only do this by browsing the disk from and not the autorun feature, as the autorun feature doesnt let you right click on the menu when it appears.

9) Go to the setup file when browsing disk and right click and choose "run as administrator"

10) Install the game and the official patch update. Again run that as administrator too.

11) Then install Deckz patch using AFS explorer, When you run AFS again run as administrator.

12) Apply the patch (refer to deckz patching instructions).

13) Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\KONAMI\Pro Evolution Soccer 2008

14) Right click on the PES2008 file and go to properties at bottom.

15) click on the compatibilty tab and tick the "run this program in compatibilty mode for" and select "Windows XP (service pack 2)".

16) on the same pop up go down to "Privilege Level" and tick "Run as Administrator".

17) Now cross your fingers and wish for the best try running the game....

The above is what I did and it worked a wonder. I hope this works for you too.

Tell me about it. I almost got confused typing this stuff up. Got to say how strange it was to finally figure it out. I gave up hope most of the time but I tell ya i'm enjoying every moment of it. Master League, , , Man United all the way.

Great patch! But it came to my attention that i didnt update the team names, so Manchester United is still Man red! Anyone?

Make sure you have both the edit file (PES2008_EDIT01.bin) and option file (PES2008_OPTION01.bin) are in the "My Documents/KONAMI/Pro Evolution Soccer 2008/save" folder then launch both load settings from system settings, AND load data from within edit.

Then turn auto-save on, and do a final save just to make sure.

Also, use fresh EDIT and OPTION files just incase the previous ones were accidently overwritten.

wowowowowow. I`m so so close. Thanks to both Deckz and Sajkan 2007. The only things that seem to be messed up now are:
The stadium names,
Master League mode has the wrong names for each league (i.e Barclays Premiership is actually the dutch league and Championship is the top division and called Serie A etc etc)
Where is this information kept (which patch cv_0 or cv_1 or rv_e)? Almost like it has patched slightly wrong.
Thanks for your outstanding help thus far.
You are my heroes........

lol, thank sajikan2007 for the Vista help, I had no idea about the 64-bit system.

About the league names for Master League, you would have to choose "Progress with Changes" when you have selected a team and league at the start of ML.
I have constructed the format so that League A is Premier League, League B is la Liga, Leacue C is Seria A, and League D is a mixed European League called Uefa Best of the Europe.
If you would like to change them around, or have Dutch League instead, then you would have to swap the League logos around in GameGraphicStudio. The League names can be changed in the in-game editor, while some of the cup names are stored in unnamed_01.bin of cv_0.img (or cv_1.img - I forgot...havent used GGS/afs for a long while).

As for the stadium names, I am pretty confused why those are messed up, but they can easily be changed in the in-game editor aswell.

Hope this helps, and if there are any more problems, please come back.

hey Deckz, i could help you with the option files, just name the player that you want me to transfer and the number, ill do that and upload them so that ppl could enjoy the new transfer.

I already put Anelka on Chelsea

That'll be great kamal007...here are the transfer lists for the...

Prem League:

and

Championship:
http://www.skysports.com/football/transfers/0,20367,11687,00.html

But just doing the major transfers would be fine as there were so many this month...

So maybe doing these for the time being is fine:
NICOLAS ANELKA (Bolton to Chelsea)
MATT TAYLOR (Portsmouth to Bolton)
MANUEL FERNANDES (Valencia to Everton)
ALAN HUTTON (Rangers to Tottenham)
JERMAIN DEFOE (Tottenham to Portsmouth)
JONATHAN WOODGATE (Middlesbrough to Tottenham)
MARLON KING (Watford to Wigan)
LASSANA DIARRA (Arsenal to Portsmouth)
MARTIN SKRTEL (Zenit St Petersburg to Liverpool)
AFONSO ALVES (Heerenveen to Middlesbrough)
