And another release:
https://github.com/PSP-Archive/ARK-4/releases/tag/r143

This one fixes Inferno Cache to use different sizes depending on the system.
- 32KB cache for PSP 1K. Should fix games like Twisted Metal Head-On while still being able to play other games and plugins.
- 8MB cache for 2K and newer. Should greatly improve many games on these systems while also leaving plenty of room for other plugins.
- 4MB cache for Vita. * Note: highmem and inferno cache on Vita are experimental and may cause issues.

+ The last versions fixed the error of resuming the game in Vita using npdrm_free psp plugin
- I keep having crash problems when trying to exit ARK recovery.

I have two questions about ARK Vita
Would it be possible to create custom bubbles to run games without entering ARK custom launcher? something like adrenaline bubble booter does
Another thing would be possible to play games hosted on another partition of the Vita? I have some games in the internal memory of the Vita (imc0) and the original card (uma0) using sd2vita

In order of priority, fixing Leda support is the next thing to do as it impacts all devices.
After that, having PSP support pretty much done, I can focus on Vita-specific developments.

Cool.

Now if someone finally ported and updated picodrive from the PSP to the Vita...

No, I've tested on 1K, 3K, Go and Vita. Leda plugin works perfectly fine on all of them now. You can also use eLoader so you get a really nice compatibility with legacy homebrews.

I have an early model PSP 200/2000 the infamous Star Wars model so I was asking if there any software, game or app that won"t work.

I've been hard at work to improve stability and compatibility but it's never guaranteed that your game/app will 100% work.
I guess you should just give it a try and report back if anything is broken.

Make sure you copy H.BIN from Vitabubble folder. Tested on Vita 2K.
no. I'm still having the same problem.
