Release Name:
Professor Layton Pandoras Box HD Vita v.1.0
Author: Rinnegatamante
Description:
This is a wrapper/port of Professor Layton: Pandora's Box HD for the PS Vita. The port works by loading the official Android ARMv7 executable in memory, resolving its imports with native functions and patching it in order to properly run. By doing so, it's basically as if we emulate a minimalist Android environment in which we run natively the executable as is.
Requirements:
- libshacccg.suprx
- Game Data Files: Android v.1.0.1 / apk + obb file
(other versions are not tested so far)
First Release: v.1.0
Download:

Note:
- This port works only with versions of the game where an obb file was still used.
- It has been tested with v.1.0.1.
Known Issues:
- Post puzzle solution animation is a bit slow. (Likely cause of I/O overhead)
- Sometimes videos don't play although you are still able to skip them in order to progress the game. (sceAvPlayer qwirk).
Setup Instructions Game Data:

- Extract the folder assets inside ux0:data/layton_pandora.
