This was good knowledge for me, thanks man.

All VPKs that I try to install from Vitashell over USB mode has the same error. Found on the internet more users with the same problem, maybe USB is not the best solution.

will check out your usbdevice tool :)

This is what I try to install and the only reason why I had buy the PSTV ->

Iwas thinking to Install the homebrew store to get the application direkt from the vitadb store. But u need install the store first too.. outch..😖

Hmmm alternatively its a PSP port how i see. So there must be a iso around. U where able to get PPSSPP on Smartphone or Smarttv and play it.🤔

yeah, I had install VitaHBBrowser.vpk, same idea just download the game port files there and install from them on USB later offline.
The installation was good working and it shows up the HBrowser in the home menu, but when I start it than it comes only a black screen.

For port of Shadow Warrior, this is a old classic PC game MS-DOS 1997, it comes from the Duke Nukem 3D engine Ken Silverman. I must implent the Pc files for my self into from game Disc into the Vita Port from Rinnegatamante. I did the same on the Wii and PS3 and Dreamcast and its working DN3D (not SW), but PSTV is very new for me. PSVita TV is the first console with the homebrew port of Shadow Warrior, no other console has it. The same with Quake III / RTCW. Amazing.

Currently any VPK can not be installed with vitashell, what can be the problem ? The HBrowser will install the game for self on USB so far I had read the FAQ, this would solve the problem.

EDIT :
Maybe it comes from the PSP Duke Nukem 3D port, that is maybe the reason why you think its PSP ?

that is normal when you first start up the homebrew browser. it's creating a cache folder in the data folder of ux0.

you may have messed up the cache, but I doubt it messed up the app or the system. you can delete the cache manually. it's in the data folder. it will be a black screen for a few moments when you first boot it up. let me check what the name is:

I think it will be on the livearea, wherever you have ux0 set to. I don't know if there will be a problem with usb. I no longer use usb.

The install over HBrowser was working and Shadow Warrior is show up in the home menu. When I start the game it say error 'libshacccg.suprx' is missing. To fix this problem I had install this one ->

Its not on the USB drive. Its installed on my intern PSTV with 1gb, so 500MB are left, hope is enough.

Now Shadow Warrior is working. Many Thanks :) Problem solved. (so far)
