So i did the whole process on my vita phat, worked fine, no problems, SD2Vita was working pretty well.
I got some errors due to plugins and so i decided to reset my vita.
I did it.
Since then i can't get the Sd2Vita to work again, following every step, twice checking everything.
I though it would be my adpater who died for any reason, i got another one (both Version 5).
Still not working.
Tried different SD cards, different adapters, nothing works.
Now i'm trying to set the SD2Vita on another Vita i have (but a slim this time), same problem:

My stpes:

- 0fill on sd using the zzblank.img
- Formated the SD to Exfat on windows, no label name, standard allocation size
- Set the storagemgr under kernel line into the ur0 tai config, copied the module and set as GCD=ux0
- Copied all the content from ux0 to my prepared SD
- Deleted the tai folder on ux0
- Restarted my Vita
- Activated the h-encore and Ta-Da!!!! SD2Vita Memory don't show up, under settings > System it shows just " - ", can't read my SD.

Tried on both vitas, both cards, both sds, nothing works, pelase someone help me about it, what's my mistake?
Maybe cause i formated both my Vitas under the proper Vita recovery menu?

Since you already, check that there is no config text in ux0/tai, then probably the problem is either the SD Card, the Adapter or the config in ur0. Post your ux0 config if you can.

It's my second SD2Vita adapter, i brought it new today.
I tried on 3 different SD cards.

# This file is used as an alternative if ux0:tai/config.txt is not found.
# For users plugins, you must refresh taiHEN from HENkaku Settings for
# changes to take place.
# For kernel plugins, you must reboot for changes to take place.
*KERNEL
ur0:tai/storagemgr.skprx
ur0:tai/nonpdrm.skprx
ur0:tai/nopsmdrm.skprx
# henkaku.skprx is hard-coded to load and is not listed here
*main
# main is a special titleid for SceShell
ur0:tai/henkaku.suprx
ur0:tai/download_enabler.suprx
*NPXS10015
# this is for modifying the version string
ur0:tai/henkaku.suprx
*NPXS10016
# this is for modifying the version string in settings widget
ur0:tai/henkaku.suprx

I checked many times, there's no tai folder on ux0

I'm running out of ideas, it's looking pretty weird!

Config looks fine, you have the storage_config.txt in ur0:tai/ ?

yes, i do.

MCD=uma0
INT=imc0
GCD=ux0
UMA=grw0

It's happening on both my 2 vita systems, the odd about it is that it was working fine, after i reseted my consoles, it refuses to work :/
May be related to it?
Theres any remaining file from previous SD2vita installation that i should remove manually? I'm confused.

Well the Gamesd.skprx file left behind shouldn't affect it , since it is not in the config.txt, what firmware you are on?

I'm on 3.68. Everytime i reboot and run h-encore again, the memory storage on system> shows just as traces --
Looks like it can't mount my SD2Vita.

Try formatting the card again, I'm using 64kb cluster instead of default.
I Will try it

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Had the same problem once. Only thing that worked with me back then was fully formatting it again and starting over from scratch

Formating the whole console again?
I already did it 4 times now, i'm really getting tired and sad about it :/

    Did you feed the hamster in your internet router? It prob died and is running slow now.

    @BigOnYa, why did you start saying my pc has a hamster in the first place?

    Its actua!ly just a old joke, meaning its slow. Was just kidding around with you.

    I think Game streaming should work like this.... Local Hardware able the run the game fine, game engine and common assets stored locally, all FMV and music and textures could be streaming

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Some temporary storage
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    also @BigOnYa im making some progress on my gdevelop project, implemented various mechanics

    They went all in on streaming, should have been more of a hybrid approach

    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa, although the bullets are a bit buggy

    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player.X(PlayerDirection)

    im taking a break for today anyway

    YEa gotta after a while, looking at code for long periods will bug your eyes.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    That's cool tho, I'm proud of you going back to it, not giving up. It is difficult at first to learn, but fun once you get the hang of it. I think I've watched every tutorial video there is, but I still struggle sometimes to get stuff to work right. But gotta keep trying dif things, and eventually you will get it right.
