Welcome to the official PlayStation Home Cache Extraction Guide created by the [Destination Home Staff Team](https://web.destinationhome.live/). The purpose of this guide is to teach users how to successfully dump their PlayStation Home data from their `Retail/HEN/Debug/CFW` PS3's. By donating your data to the Destination Home team we can re-purpose your Home data back into both for the online/offline client. This will help with archiving things such as original spaces, clothing, LMO's, mini-games, Screenlinks, Posters, Metadata, XML's & more. Once the Destination Home team decrypts user's Home data, our staff members will upload any objects/items to the [PlayStation Home Master Git Archive](https://github.com/NagatoDEV/PlayStation-Home-Master-Archive).

**P.S:** If you want to see our current progress of what spaces `scenes` have been archived by the Destination Home Team, you can check out the [Destination Home Scene List Spreadsheet](https://github.com/NagatoDEV/PlayStation-Home-Scene-List-Spreadsheet).

This is the maintained text version for this guide. Down below, here is a video guide created by our staff member [Nagato](https://www.youtube.com/c/NagatosRevenge).

* 🎥 [PlayStation Home Cache Extraction Video Guide](https://youtu.be/BppPWh49ROU) For users who want to see a video version of this guide you can check out my personal video here. Note you'll need to either be on a system that is modified or an official debug unit such as a `DECR or DECH model` PS3's before proceeding with the extraction process. If you want to see a video guide on how to be on the latest modded firmware for PS3 `which is currently 4.90 as of 3/20/2023`, you can check out my personal guide [here](https://youtu.be/oJWhmBwlCcQ).
