Hey guys I'm new on the scene and am having trouble installing emulators onto my just hacked vita. Can someone give me some advice? I'm also wondering if theres a way to organize the files that i throw onto the PSP? Oh yeah I'm running 3.55 TN-V..

get pspfiler in .iso format and use the official cma from sony to transfer the pspfiler.iso trough tnv save data, once you run pspfiler you need create vhbl folder inside the 'psp' folder, get the plugin game2vhbl plugin and install it via cma, then ín your vita open pspfiler and transfer the plugin from tnv save data to a new folder on your root called plugins, after this , you can transfer emulators and other home-brew from cma to your vita, but to do this you need rename the EBOOT.PBP TO FBOOT.PBP, zip the whole folder and rename your .zip to .txt so cma can transfer it to the vita, for example if you have a snes emu you need rename it to SNES.TXT (all in caps), later trough pspfiler you need rename the original extension, unzip and transfer the content to the proper folders, in this case, emu need to be place on the vbhl folder, well is a little complicated but not impossible, don't forget that if you want to see homebrew (pep filer and emus) displaying on the game menu tnv you need to activate the plugin in the vsh menu and restart .

Is that all the stuff you have to do to get things working on the 3.55 version of TN-V? Ouch. Seems like an awful lot of work compared to some of the earlier FWs. If I want small files on there I can just use an FTP client on either the Vita or ePSP side.

yep, that is pretty much you have to do to create folders and transfer the first time your homebrew, but once you do this of course you can use ftp for vita to transfer files to your folders, like vhbl or plugins folders.

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
