So I've installed the program, put in a game, launched the program, selected the first option, then the first option again, pressed O to being, it starts the digital manual and stops there. It says not to touch anything, so I don't, but how long is this suppose to take? After 10 minutes, it's still at the digital manual! If I cancel everything and launch MaiDumpTool again, it will start dumping the game, but only a few MBs of it, not the entire thing.

So what am I doing wrong here? I didn't have the problem with Vitamin.

without sourcing the games....

Possibility:
Bad DL or extraction
did you put it in the mai folder?
what game is it and how large is it... granted shouldnt really matter I done 3-4 gb game and didn't take that long. All it doing is moving the folder to the right location and doing the correct edit.
Which MaidumpTool you are using?

I thought all the games were compatible with MAiDumpTool

Possibility:
Bad DL or extraction

I'm trying to dump my own games, not install games I got from the Internet
did you put it in the mai folder?

Games I try to dump are creating a folder in the Mai folder

what game is it and how large is it... granted shouldnt really matter I done 3-4 gb game and didn't take that long. All it doing is moving the folder to the right location and doing the correct edit.

ok...

Which MaidumpTool you are using?

The last English version that I found here: https://github.com/LioMajor/MaiDumpToolEN/releases

i ment like linking to the actual pirated games.... since it not allowed on this forum.

I wasn't really looking at the mai menu I didn't see you actually was ripping the game yourself instead of installing. So... unfortunally I personally didn't haven't try to rip any game with Mai yet I can't really offer more assistants only with Vitamin a little.

So you might need to wait for someone else to post and I try to do a test rip eventually...

What game is it still? the game in question might have issue with ripping.

No, not all games can be dumped by Maidump. There are quite a few that have issues being dumped altogether, so we need to know what game it is.

I tried: Valkyrie Drive -Bhikkhuni-, Shovel Knight, Sorcery Saga: Curse of the Great Curry God, Superdimension Neptune vs Sega Hard Girls

You are not using a USB-drive with a PSTV by any chance?
For me every game I tried worked so far, but as soon I used a USB-drive it failed.
