Hacking [Release] ARK-4 CFW port for PSP.

[SylverReZ]

Does ARK-4 support ripping UMDs via USB connection from the VSH menu rather than running a seperate application to do that?

I just asked acid snake.

I just asked acid snake.

Okay, thank you.

 

[godreborn]

Okay, thank you.

He said it can, but I just asked about dumping umd in general.

They're not.

Is the current ARK version called ARK-4 4.18.17 or just ARK-4.18.17?

 

[godreborn]

I think it's the latter if you mean system settings.

 

[xFlesk]

in system settings i see "ARK 4.18.17"

Thanks. Then I don't understand why it's called ARK-4 and not just ARK or even ARK 4 in this case.

there's already an Ark 3 iirc, possibly a 2 and a 1 as well. the previous version of Ark was for 3.20+3.36, I think.

I know but in that case it should never have been called ARK-2 and ARK-3 in the first place but ARK 2.X and ARK 3.X.

they're most likely completely rewritten, so they're not tied to each other.

Should I keep ARK_Live in order to update ARK?

I'm not sure. I always transfer over ark live as well as the save data folder. I do recommend updating while in ofw (home menu held when boot up), as I've encountered issues installing it over itself.

Even if turning off the PSP, inserting its Memory Stick in an USB 3.0 microSD Card Reader, connecting it in the PC, transferring the files to the Memory Stick, inserting it in the PSP and turning it on?

Weird, my PSP is freezing and turning itself off after running PSP games. I think this started after installing the latest ARK version.

then, use infinity to change cfw if you think it's ark's fault. I've reported all bugs that I've found to @Acid_Snake as we're friends on discord. he can't get back to it right now, so maybe during the holidays he'll have some free time. as for your first question, I don't know, because you'd still be installing ark over itself. I wouldn't do it.

Unfortunately, I removed PRO before installing ARK. Maybe I should boot to OFW to know if I still have this issue. It may also be hardware-related, after all.

 

[godreborn]

yes, boot into ofw, then install the firmware as well as infinity. we know enough about how the psp works to make a homebrew look legit in ofw.

Which firmware, PRO?

 

[godreborn]

pro, lme, ofw, and ark4. ark4 is my default one.

Also, in the Custom Launcher, while scrolling games, it skips some of them.
