Strange DLC problem...

MakutaMaster962 · Mar 29, 2023

I've been wracking my brain trying to figure out what's wrong with the DLCs I have for Toaru Majutsu no Virtual-On (CUSA08425) for almost a year now. For some bizarre reason, whenever I try to install any one of the DLCs for the game, it's always detected by the game as the first one on the game's DLC list; the Content ID of which is: "JP0177-CUSA08425_00-DLCXSMPXXXXXX000". Any and all other DLCs simply just refuse to show up in-game.

Here are some example screenshots with the first 4 of 8 DLCs installed:

How it looks on PS Vita (and supposed to look on PS4):

The list of installed DLCs on the PS4's Home Screen:

The problem in the PS4 version:

Some important things to note:

1. The DLCs, the game itself, and the most recent update I have for it are all fPKGs.

2. I'm currently running a Jailbroken PS4 on firmware 9.00.

3. I've literally tried & used just about every tool/method of creating DLC fPKGs, & have gotten the same results every time.

4. I know that the game supports cross-save with the PS Vita version, if that helps any (though I think you need PSN for that).

5. The game was delisted from PS Store in 2019, which may be why some of the tools I've used don't work.

I need to know what I'm doing wrong, so that this problem can be fixed.

Might be a bug with goldhen. I think a new one was released today. I haven't tested it yet, waiting for @Prb to update his host.

I haven't had any problem with GoldHen 2.3 with dlc and have more then a few dlc.

Suggestion try loading the game with system language set to Japan?

I just tried switching the system language just now and it still didn't work.

Just a thought might not be but I figured why not. Make sure sfo Id is correct and different for each dlc as well as fpkg name. Possible if same overwriting.

godreborn · Mar 29, 2023

my only other guess is that they're not fpkgs but rather retail ones. that would make them not show up in game.

I've double-triple-quadruple-checked everything. Title ID, Content ID, you name it, I've checked it.

@godreborn I can confirm with 100% certainty that they are all fpkgs. I used Leecherman's PKG viewer tool to confirm that.

I haven't a clue now but suggestion I would try different GoldHEN probably starting at 2.1.2 because above this has cheat menu and ASLR disabled could be like Dragon Quest Warriors.Fyi dqw will not run fmv and scrambles some text in game if ASLR is disabled.

I tried GoldHen 2.1.2 at your suggestion a short while ago. Got the exact same results again. I'm running out of ideas here.

Sorry me also I haven't a clue now why.

Is there anyone else anywhere who can help me with this problem I'm having? I already tried Psxhax, but for some strange reason, they moved my post from the "PS4 Help" sub-forum and added it to an already existing post of mine in the "PS4 Fake Packages" sub-forum.

Are you sure they are all fpkg?

Maybe check the addcont.db from system_data. They're likely in there if addcont is showing up in game information. There may be a cell for unlocked, don't remember. Check app version as well. They're either not fpkg or you don't have the right update installed or you have to unlock playing the dlc. Those may be the only three possibilities.

OK, I navigated to system_data/priv/mms/, transferred the addcont.db file to my pc via ftp and looked at it though a hex editor. All 8 of the game's DLCs are in there. And they all say v1.00. But what did you mean when you said there might be a "cell for unlocked"? The base game itself is v1.01 and the newest patch is 1.05.

It's better to use sqlite to read the database. There may or may not be an enable cell. I don't know.

check psdevwiki for a possible explanation of that error code. just google ps4 error codes, which will likely bring it up.

I had the same issue apparently that set of DLCs are dumped improperly or just corrupted. I tried another downloading source and all of them work

Ok, I've looked at the addcont.db file in the DB browser for sqlite. The closest thing I can see to an "enable cell" is the "status" column inside the "Browse data" tab. Where do I go from here?

I thought you couldn't use DLCs with GoldHen?
