How to overclock my Vita?

[HELP] Extracting script from Uta no Prince-Sama Repeat LOVE

Daisoku · 2026-07-15T20:25:04+00:00

Hi all! New here, kind of ripping my hair out over this... Dipping my toes into having a little look around vita romhacking, really, and I decided to have a bash at Uta No Prince Sama Repeat LOVE on Vita. (I started with the original PSP version, but hit a massive brick wall. Gotten much further with the vita remake!) Like, I really want to play this game, and nobody's done an english patch yet, so I'm willing to learn! and I am so very stubborn. I've managed to extract and convert the NSAC encoded (shout out to quickbms!) database.dat, which is where I believe the script for the game is. Extracted textures, converted them, yadda yadda... Inside there is a bunch of files, including memorial dats, which are like little bonus story snippets you earn through playing the game. Those are very easily viewed and copied using a hex editor as regular japanese, and I can do anything with those. yay! My problem is that I'm looking for the main script??? Everything in my body screams that it, as well as the common route, are inside of these two files: common_story.dat and story.dat. I have absolutely no clue where to go from here, so I'm begging and pleading that someone here can point me in the right direction. Maybe a tool? God, I hope there's a tool for this. (Please note that I am utterly abysmal at writing code, and refuse to use AI to do it for me.) I feel like I've gotten pretty far for a total newbie in the starting stages, and it would be a shame to fall here because I don't know to make these files readable. There is a file called Story.did, but it's much smaller and doesn't give any indications that it contains anything... Included is the folder created from opening the database dat, everything in there is what was in there! Unless I'm barking up the wrong tree, and for some unholy reason it's inside the EBOOT file?? (which i doubt, but... stranger things have happened...) Anyway, thank you for any assistance!!

I wanna play Game Boy Advance games like the Mega Man Zero series and the Golden Sun Series at full speed!

You can overclock it by installing a plugin for it. I recommend PSVShell by Electry. Here's the GitHub for it:

Or you can use Autoplugin II to install it:

Or you can just use a PSP's GBA emulator on Adrenaline if you don't want to mess up with too many (unecessary) plugins. :teach:

I've been using gpSP and it works well!

Vita retroarch has its own version of gpsp and is now fullspeed with a working dynarec, better to use that.

Compatability isn't always there but, neither is it for gpsp on adrenaline.
