Forum:Fix for missing DLC (PS3)

I recently got Honest Hearts and Old World Road for my US PS3 copy of New Vegas, only to find that they weren't working in my game. I went and checked the Downloadable Content menu in the game's main menu to find that not only were Honest Hearts and Old World Road missing in the list, but that all my DLC--the preorder pack and Dead Money--had been wiped out. I redownloaded and reinstalled everything twice, but it still wasn't showing up.

Well, when I went looking for a fix to this, I came across this forum topic on PS3 Trophies, in which some other people were complaining about the same issue. Someone found a workaround, which was to go into the "Game Data Utility" on the Game menu and delete a file called "Fallout: New Vegas DLC - (CA)". (I have no idea why a file meant for Canada would be installed with a US copy of New Vegas, but whatever.) My DLCs all showed back up after I did this.

Apparently, it's not a surefire way to fix the issue, as evidenced by some other users on the linked forum thread, but I figured I would throw this method up in case anyone else was having an issue with the DLC disappearing. I haven't seen it talked about much around here, but hopefully this helps someone!
