For those that have been around in the Vita scene, you might be familiar with the word "MaiDumps", specific dumps of games that came about shortly after the 3.60 Henkaku hack was released. These days, the more modern and preferred ways version of a Vita game dump is the NoNpDRM kind. When h-encore released for PS Vita firmwares beyond 3.60, many updated to the latest firmware to play newer games. However, many wanted to stay on the older 3.60 exploit, or on 3.65 which has Enso, but doing so locked them out of playing multiple games. Now, that's no longer the case, as #LetMaiDie, which had been teased earlier this week, has been released. Now games on 3.68 can be played on 3.60. All you need to do is grab the recently updated RePatch, and install it on your Vita (by putting it in the tai folder and adding it under the kernel entry on the config file), and then grab a compatibility pack, extract, and move it to your Vita's ux0:/repatch/titleid folder. This is geared towards allowing for the potential to mod games, but also lets you run backups of newer FW games on older FWs.

This plugin serves as a substitute for the patch folder when an existing update is present on official cartridges or other encrypted formats. It also has the benefit of loading decrypted content on 3.65.

To clarify: this plugin works on both 3.65 and 3.60 on NoNpDrm, official cartridges, and officially downloaded games.

Note: Be wary of using a Vitamin dumped(or similar) eboot, it will be affected by save issues.

Really amazing. Shame I don't have time to play games so much now. Too many games pending and little time.

Hope I can try it out some time soon.

 

[DarthDub]

It's finally happened. Fully hacked Vita and the ability to play all games. What a time to be alive.

 

[RedoLane]

Time to buy a vita!

weird, last time when there's new hack for ps3 super slim, $ony made immediately an ass-parrying-patch right after, and yet nothing happened for Psded, just wonder when $ony decides to announce EOL

Thank you.

There will be a patch, don't worry.

but H-encore was released on 1st of this month and it's been 25 days! i think $ony cares more ps3 than psded

Of course they do. Why wouldn't they?

There aren't going to be too many more FW updates. My guess is they're holding it until closer to EOL, which will most likely be late this year or early next year. At the moment, there are no Vita releases planned past early September in the US and late October in Japan. My guess is 3.70 or 3.7X will be the last FW.

Compatibility Packs

You should remove the Compatibility Packs link as they contain copyrighted material.
The C.P. are compressed files with the decrypted game's executables and modules inside.

I just bought a VITA so this is great news!

 

[DKB]

Oh nice, luckily I never bothered updating my system.

>When you tell people not to update but they do anyway

Shame they couldn't have waited and kept enso.

 

[Zukov]

But 3.60 users can use the Patch folder or it isn't possible?

 

[fmhugo]

Work like a charm. Thanks everyone made this possible. #LetMaiDie

 

[Sakitoshi]

Good news for those lazy enough to not launch the exploit every time you reboot/shutdown your Vita.

>When you tell people not to update but they do anyway

enso is highly overrated. it just auto-launches the exploit, something that will take you 5 seconds and 2 screen taps anyway IF you turn off or reboot your console, just leave it in sleep mode if you are too lazy to do it every boot and problem solved.
it's the same as with the psp.

Enso is overrated.....yeah sure
It s "just" an exploit that gives you low level access to the device

The dumbest post of the year

enso is only the cold boot part of the exploit. h-encore does the heavy lifting.
