Which ARK-4 version did you use, the standalone or the one which runs from Adrenaline?
Last edited by Databoi2023,
Standalone, as mentioned before Adrenaline has some problems with PSP DLC due to the firmware used as a base to make it.
Doesn't npdrm_free and nploader allow Adrenaline to load DLC?
You could've tried running ARK-4 from Adrenaline after downloading and setting the npdrm_free_mod and nploader_mod plugins.

If that was the case then "How do I have Disgaea 2 DLC work on the Vita/Adrenaline" wouldn't have gone unanswered for so long. The answer is you can't, some people claim some workarounds but apparently those don't work for everyone.
I answered you and said the same. Did you try it? Also, where did you read it apparently didn't work for everyone?
Several threads and subreddits posts. Some of them even in this forum. Anyway standalone works, I tried with both starting a new game and with the save I had, so not gonna bother with anything else. Adrenaline still works well for anything that's not PSP DLC so keeping it. May try to see if disabling my minidisc drive makes the PSP battery last longer but otherwise bye bye PSP I loved you but now I can do everything you can save playing minidisks and using the mini camera on the Vita!

What's the difference between Inferno Cache's "LRU" and "RR" settings?
Where can I find the settings.txt file?
I was told doing a full flash install and deleting VSHMENU.PRX from ARK_01234 would fix the problem. Also, if pressing "L", "R" and "SELECT" buttons to force the VSH MENU to open like I was told, it still doesn't open it until I wait some seconds (but that way, that button combination isn't needed since the "SELECT" button will also work).
What does encrypted and decrypted PSN content mean? Are encrypted PSP games in PKG format and decrypted PSP games in ISO and folder format (with EBOOT.PBP inside them)? In which format are PSN PSP games, PKG? How can RAP files be used (which might come with PSN PKG PSP games) on the PSP?
What's the difference between npdrm_free and npdrm_free_mod and nploader and nploader_mod and why doesn't the Wiki mention the npdrm_free_mod plugin (and the npdrm_free and nploader plugins) if it mentions the nploader_mod one?
Can the "Memory Stick speedup" setting break PSP games (I'm excluding this issue [the "C1-2858-3 one] which affects ARK-4 and may affect all PSP games ran from it).
Can the "Force Extra Memory" setting break PSP games?
Why and how does PS Vita's standalone ARK-4 make a sound when scrolling PSP games even with sound turned off?
EDIT: If "Force Extra Memory" is set to "Always", the PSP freezes and restarts some seconds after when exiting the european Spider-Man: Web of Shadows – Amazing Allies PSP ISO on ARK-4 while using the PS button. I'll set it to "Disabled", then.
EDIT 2: The "ICON0 in Browser" setting freezes PS Vita's ARK-4 if "Enabled" when scrolling PSP ISOs on "Files". I can exit ARK-4 via PS button and close it, but when reopening it or opening another app, it lags a lot, so I'm forced to restart the console and set "ICON0 in Browser" to "Disabled" for it to not have both issues.

@Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.+1 -

They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

@SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme -

A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."+2 -

anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media+1
if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them -

Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

@BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.
The issue is DRM -
@
cearp:
You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60
