Make sure to create the index file before compressing the folder dump.

The index only needs to be deleted if you have modified the game data files, for example, added a translation or DLC.

Could you clarify that? If all I'm doing is just replacing the libSceAmpr.sprx file to a newer version, I don't need to worry about making a new index correct? If not, how would I make one?

Well yes I can. Do you have a ampr_emu.index (Plik INDEX) in your folder?

So example:
[Folder]
- ampr_emu.index
- dlc_emu.ini
- eboot.bin
etc.

Do you have a modified game file? Like added additional content, DLC's, skins etc.
If this is NOT the case then you dont have to recreate a new index file.

If you have modified it you need to run the Python script build_ampr_index.py again via a Terminal, Pyton etc.

I do but all I changed was just replacing the libSceAmpr.sprx to the new one

If you looked it my post from yesterday: https://gbatemp.net/threads/ps5-exploit-guide.613891/post-10870672 (Same source) I would say try it out and test it.

The basic workflow is:

You already have a jailbroken PS5.

Dump the game to storage (internal/M2).

Install/run Game Compressor on the PS5.

Open the web interface via your browser.

Select the dumped game.

Choose:

Compress

Validate

Repair (if validation finds issues)

Mount the resulting .ffpfsc image using tools such as ShadowMountPlus.

The newest releases also allows:

Compressing directly to USB storage

Moving/copying compressed games between internal and external storage

Selecting compression profiles ("fast" or "space")

So the storage is being done on your console. Hope this clarifies it. In essence it's a standalone PS5 payload for compressing, unpacking, validating, and repairing ShadowMountPlus-mounted games from a simple web UI.

So I made some progress regarding various .exfat conversions.

All games are working properly.

I made some screenshots for you to see what you can achieve in regards to decreasing the file size.

The First Berserker: Khazan

Wuchang Fallen Feathers

Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

Resident Evil 9: Requiem

Pragmata

Crimson Desert

Black Myth: Wukong

Nice compression numbers!

Also: the OTF compression from disc to USB is huge.

Out of curiosity, are your compressed images affected by the reading speed bottleneck? For example, with Yotei in folder format on an M.2 drive via USBC, the map opening and closing (which is frequent in the game) takes a few seconds to load. I'm assuming that's somewhat worse when compressed?

Also, I'm assuming you're running these from external USB?

If you don't create a new one check if by replacing the libSceAmpr.sprx is sufficient.

Yes loading times are a bit longer when booting up a game and if you fast travel in a game for example.

This is fucking good. I have installed the EU version of youtube and put this as an alternate Y2JB, which makes the US version the alternate/backup launcher now, since I like this one way more. Gonna do the same in my other PS5 now. Btw, I have the EU pkg for youtube, if anyone wants it.

HS2005 · 2026-06-13T14:55:53+0100

And he is right to do so. I would do the same. Just join the Discord server.

This is even worse. X AI's bots autobanning be like:

I’d also try BlueSky as well because sometimes Discord can be a shitty place as well for toxic behavior and takedowns as well. Or Telegram.

With astro bot load times are a bit faster imo. Haven't timed but I played the exfat version for a while and then switched to ffpfsc and it seems to load a bit faster.

Which I think is logical since file size is about 5 times smaller (although bandwidth is limited to max 250MB/sec with ffpfsc).

Hmm nice. Fun fact. I jhave not played Astro Bot so I would not know. Glad to hear it's faster. The speed between exfat and ffpfsc is neglectable

There are developments for using Netflix to run PS2JB: https://github.com/dragancla/Netflix-N-Hack
If you don't have Lua or Yarpe your only option is make use of the backup image by Gezine. But as adviced before, make your own back-up first so that if you want to use that again you'll have it. There's no way to get/strip saves from that back-up file alone.

NFHJB doesn't seem to help either, it too needs to have the system JB some other way first. Not that I care about the accounts being activated per say, but there are some exploits that only work if you have an activated account and with my luck I know that the moment I lose that something cool that needs one will come up. Like the rumored high FW webkit exploit or a new and widely available LUA or YARPE game.
Anyone knows if restoring a backup originally made with an activated account wipes out the activation?

delete icon from menu, start payloadmanager with JB process and when icon appear in main menu click on start button -> keep in Home

When it rebuilds the database ps4 games shows up again but when I want to play them it says they are corrupted the ps5 goes to black screen and all ps4 games icons goes away

Arsenal detects them all but nothing plays lol

PS5 Y2JB Autoloader v0.9

Pre-release

Changelog:

Unified Autoloader: Autoload config parsing logic has been moved into ps5-unified-autoloader — a shared ELF used across all autoloaders (Y2JB, BD-JB, Lua). This keeps the codebase consistent and makes improvements available to all of them at once.
Sync autoload config from USB to /data: Added support for syncing (moving) the autoload configuration from a USB drive to internal /data storage using the @sync directive in autoload.txt.
Improved stability for autoload.txt users: Since payloads are now loaded after the YouTube app has fully closed, issues with certain payloads causing a kernel panic on load should be resolved.
Dropped YT cache directory config support: Because the unified autoloader runs after the YouTube app is fully closed, loading the autoload.txt configuration from the YouTube app's cache directory is no longer supported.

Full Changelog (since last stable release): v0.8-a0146a2...v0.9-2b2e5f6

That's why I said it's a development, not a full implementation yet. What they are trying to do is that you can use an image > put it on your M2 so that image can be used to have a pre installed version of Netflix and perhaps Y2JB with the P2JB exploit.

Did you actually do as the settings screen says and install shadowmount and kstuff from within elf-arsenal? You seem to be the only person on the planet with an issue there.

Also, try different kstuff versions, echostretch's version doesn't work for me on 7.61 at all, while drakmor's is fine.

Fixed save - first release

UltraC0re — Jak X (PS2-on-PS5) userland exploit

A userland code-execution entry point for Jak X via the PS5's PS2 emulator, built on
Luac0re by Gezine. From a crafted save it reaches native
code in the emulator and brings up a remote Lua loader on port 8888, which can host Luac0re's
PS5 jailbreak payloads (poops).

What's in this release

SCUS-97429 — the crafted Jak X save (NTSC, SCUS-97429) with the UltraC0re framework baked in.
poops.lua — PS5 kernel-exploit payload (send it over the loader).

Requirements

Jak X: Combat Racing (NTSC, SCUS-97429 / CUSA07842) installed on the PS5.
A way to re-sign PS5 save data for your own account (e.g. Garlic Save Manager).

Install

Re-sign the save for your own PSN account — guide: https://github.com/n0llptr/remote_lua_loader/blob/main/SETUP.md
Import it to the PS5 (USB save import).
Launch Jak X → load the save → Adventure mode. When the cutscene starts, press △ to skip it; the loader dialog appears (Listening :8888).
From your PC, send a payload to <PS5-IP>:8888 to run it (e.g. poops.lua for the jailbreak).

Notes

Only poops has been tested. Built on Gezine's Luac0re; full credits in the README.

This save works: https://github.com/matem6/UltraC0re/releases/tag/1.0.1 < just tested it.
Use SCUS-97429 & SCUS-97429.bin
This has the crafted Jak X save (NTSC, SCUS-97429) with the UltraC0re framework baked in.

Download and resign via https://garlicsaves.com/
