[Athreous]

Presumably a port of ARK is in the works that's compatible with HENKaku

Oh, that's some fantastic news! I don't care about vita backups because I like to buy every game that I like, but I miss Valkyrie Profile and Crisis Core and I don't wanna play them on my psp =p cuz vita screen> all

 

[Ruud_Luiten]

Lol. PSP PSN games are just rom dumps. Why would anyone buy a rom dump if they can dump it themselves.

If there is a legal way on the same device I think you should use it.

UMD not working on Vita shouldn't be a surprise and is known before buying a Vita.

Ripping your own UMD and putting on your vita is "a legal way"

As long as you don't sell the dumps or make some kind of leak/profit, it's ok I think...

If you're trying to argue we shouldn't use unofficial features on our consoles, you're in the wrong place. (is that the point you're trying to make? Just get to the point and stop it with the weird insinuations)

 

[Knuxie]

Will this allow me to remove HDCP from the VitaTV?

That is literally the ONLY reason I'd want to hack it. That way I can finally stream Vita games without having to spend money on splitters.

We should, for homebrew or old consoles. Not for games which are ready available on psn.

This seems normal right? You want them, just buy them

Maybe it's me..

 

[test_account]

You can do that? Nice.

Hoping for 3rd birthday support then. That one doesn't have a camera move built in even in the d buttons.

Yeah, just hold down on the screen when playing a PSP game, a menu should pop up, if i remember correctly. I played Resistance Retribution this way, worked well enough.

I'm certainly hoping it actually brings analog movement.

That would be sweet.

This doesn't work very well though, since the transitions from left to up, down, etc are not smooth since it's emulating buttons.

that functionality is bunk. The liberty stories functionality is more than just remapping 2 dimensional movement.

Yeah, its digital movement (as in emulating digital button presses, indeed), but does this hack ads analog movement?

This seems like the Nintendo way of thinking for charging again and again for eshop games.

I wholeheartedly disagree.

If I own them already, I can play them wherever I want.

Yup! Especially especially in this case because the Vita has a built in capability to emulate PSP and PS1 games.

[Weltall Zero]

Same for movies... if you want it in another form, just pay... or play it on your psp.

I want all my vhs vids in 4k, so I'm entitled to do so, for free? That's not how it works.

Wrong analogy; the 4k version is a separate entity with orders of magnitude more information. With UMDs you're transferring the information already there (and already owned by you) to a different system; the correct analogy is transferring your old VHS to DVD, grain and all, which actually was a thing back then. Was that piracy?

Or the tape decks that could move your audio tape to CD. I remember wanting one of those so bad back in the day.

Snes games or any 2d games on that oled are like looking at a high resolution print of them, it's amazing.

Maybe we're not on the same page. People are talking about backing up their UMDs, and using those backups on the vita, instead of going to the PSN store to buy a PSP game you already own physically (UMD). I dont think theres any problem with that.

 

[Chesskid1]

i remember those rumors of adding trophy support to PS1 games..

i would pay a few bucks for that

 

[Caderfix]

I heard about Henkaku like yesterday, and got very happy that I'd finally be able to play my FFVII CC on my Vita, only find out it's blocked for my current firmware haha

 

[Snowybreak]

This might be only me, but quick little PSA: It seems that Darkest Dungeons does not work on 3.60. I'm getting a "Requires firmware upgrade" Prompt.

this was mentioned on the last page. it requires 3.61

 

[RexNovis]

Nevermind. I see it has already been addressed far more eloquently by others.

Anyway back on topic. How would I go about dumping the UMD discs I own? There are quite a few that are unavailable on PSN that I would love to play on my VIta.

With a CFW'd PSP, it's a matter of dragging the ISO from the UMD to your PC

I'd like to play Outrun 2006 with a higher overclock than the one I use on PSP.
Bought the game in 2007 and still playing it every now and then

my Vita TV is ready

Hmm ok I'll do some searching and see if I can't figure out how to install CFW on my old PSP.

You've just helped me solve my dilemma of homebrewing my 1000 or 2000!

Same. That and Burnout Legends would benefit massively from running with a higher clock. Given that theflow could tell what the ePSP GPU was clocked at (I think it was something stupidly low) perhaps there's a way to change that so things run better a la Xbox One games on the One S.

 

[Moor-Angol]

I also have Motorstorm, even if I wonder how it could look on a big screen...

damn, my 16gb card won't be enough when PSP emulation will be available

Except, it's already been bought one time. No reason to buy it again, unless it's on a different format.

If it's normal for you to buy the exact same thing several times, good for you.

 

[whitehawk]

Anyone know why i can't get the overclocking app working?

I used vitamin to dump a game, (octodad since it had performance issues), reinstalled it with vitashell. I have 3.3 amphetamin.suprx and the config and game txts on the root of the memory card. I try to boot octodad and it freezez and my vita restarts...

 

[killatopak]

don't put it on the root. Put it on the plugin folder.

 

[swit]

Monster Hunter and Peace Walker already support right analog stick in the native PSP emulator on the Vita. You can just map the face buttons or d-pad to the right stick, so i'm curious to what the big deal is here. Or, i can see it if the native emulator doesnt allow for L/R-button mapping and games uses those for camera movement, and even more if the camera movement hack actually brings analog movement. That would be kinda a big deal. But if its just simple button mapping, then it can already be done in many games.

I'm certainly hoping it actually brings analog movement.

It is actually true analog control in LCS for both movement and camera at the same time. And it wasn't possible to remap camera controls in that game because it uses L+analog combo.

 

[FinaruDensetsu]

Is it possible to get the Japanese store access on my vita without the memory card hassle with henkaku?

Would I be able to install themes I purchase from JPSN?

Thanks, but I guess the problem is unrelated, game won't launch. GEt a message saying something went wrong and will reboot the vita.

Put it in ux0:/plugins

You only need the amphetamin.suprx and the game.txt files, the config.txt file is only if you want to use custom game settings

if you have another Vita with japanese PSN,you can dump certain file and use it on your main vita (replace file),this way you can access several PSN account on the same device.

 

[TheSeks]

So, if I want to use Rincheat, I apparently have to dump my game files to let it be able to hook into them.

So... if I dump a 3 gig file, I need like 6 gig space to reinstall it, right? That and I'd have to unlock the save to let the dump be able to see the save I have previously, right?

 

[mattiewheels]

I've noticed this Antiblacklist app that says it stays active even after rebooting. How did they pull that off, since the whitelister needs reactivation every time?

 

[TC McQueen]

IIRC, it overwrites a file, so it'll stick, even if Henkaku's offline.

Ah ok, i see, so the game itself is programmed with analog controls, seeing how both movement and camera uses the analog slider/"stick". Then it makes sense. I was thinking that this hack would add analog movement to all games, even those who have camera programmed to digital buttons, like Peace Walker and Monster Hunter. Still cool regarding GTA though, would make the games more playable.

he's using the retroarch ps1 emulator, pcsx rearmed

Oooh this sounds great! Is there a guide for this by any chance I can read up on?

 

[KojiKnight]

Probably just RetroArch since I don't see anything on wololo about ePSP being out yet.

Yea just using the emulator. I'm having luck with a lot of my games.

 

[drhankmccoyphd]

Is the Retroarch emulator based on the official one on PSP/PS3 etc?

 

[NormalFish]

they're individual ports of the cores, some of them might be based on previous ports, but I don't think there's any real consistency across them all.

How's the fps?

Can we increase the gfx quality?

 

[Shaneus]

I'm curious: what's the actual difference between ARK and TN-V? I'm on the latter with my 3.36 Vita, and quite happy with how it works as far as playing PSP images (and utilising the existing PSP XMB). It also runs my PS1 (purchased from PSN) games fine too. What does ARK do better/differently?

If I upgrade to 3.60 and ARK is available, would I have to re-transfer all my existing stuff back to the Vita, or will it still be visible?
