Adrenaline 6.4 released: Fast-forwarding in PS1 games and FW 3.67/3.68-oriented bug fix for the imminent hack!
In the midst of tomorrow’s FW 3.65-3.68 hack, TheFlow has also found time to update Adrenaline, an ePSP hack on steroids. Adrenaline 6.4 brings about a fix mostly targeted towards FW 3.67 and 3.68 users and a nifty little feature relating to PSX games.
What is Adrenaline?
Adrenaline is TheFlow’s famous ePSP hack for HENkaku-enabled devices (i.e hacked PSVita/PSTV consoles). It currently supports FW 3.60 to 3.68 so from tomorrow, you’ll be able to use Adrenaline on FW 3.65-3.68 devices! This great ePSP hack has the following features:
- Support for PS1 and PSP games, even supporting compressed PSP titles in CSO and other formats.
- Save states which make your gaming experience less frustrating at times!
- A variety of screen filters to make games look better
- PSP plugin and homebrew support including 64MB RAM available for more complex homebrew
- Many other features such as the complete XMB experience and right analogue stick support (either via Sony’s official settings OR the Camera Patch Lite plugin)
What got added/updated in Adrenaline 6.4?
Adrenaline 6.4 brings about the following:
- The ability to fast forward PS1 games by pressing the L-Trigger and SELECT at the same time. The fast forwarding ability speeds up the game until you press that button combination again.
- This is very useful for games that have long cutscenes which can’t be skipped or dialogue scenes that drag on forever! I personally tested this in Chrono Cross, an splendid RPG that you should surely play, and it works as intended.
- The double launch bug was fixed for non-HENkaku Enso users. To get around launching Adrenaline twice after every reboot, you need to add “ux0:app/PSPEMUCFW/sce_module/adrenaline_kernel.skprx” in the *KERNEL section of your taiHEN configuration file after installing Adrenaline.
- Quite obviously, this bug fix is mostly directed at FW 3.67 and 3.68 users since those firmwares can’t use HENkaku Enso as Sony fixed the bug that was being used.
As always, it’s recommended you upgrade to Adrenaline 6.4 especially if you play PS1 games on your PSVita/PSTV. Like previous releases, you need to install the VPK linked below via VitaShell. Furthermore, you must have your official FW 6.61 PBP file handy and placed in ux0:/app/PSPEMUCFW after installing the VPK.
Conclusion
To get Adrenaline 6.4, simply follow the link below. If you encounter any issues report them to TheFlow on GitHub in a civil way and do as TheFlow recently tweeted and stop asking him questions [relating to his imminent hack]!

YEAH BABY!
SECOND.
The time has come.
i don’t understand why anyone bothers with the Vita in the first place. it is a crappy handheld, very poor design. none of the emulators play any games very well at all. and besides all of that… it is from Sony. anything from Sony is garbage. Sony is garbage.
u mad without reason vita is grwat she just understood by all even by sony it self but not our community we made her a nice zombie
the Vita has very few games actually worth playing. ( subjective, i know ) but then the experience is ruined by a handheld with a poor design.
the only thing to understand is that Sony is a terrible company. they release poorly designed devices. then they create misconceptions around their products.
Sony used to be great… once upon a time.
eventually Sony will have to rethink what it wants for PlayStation. if they are smart they will start behaving just a little more like Nintendo. (that is, considering their blatant disregard for backwards compatibility as already stated by Sony themselves.) that is, in the sense of placing more priority on first party titles. (they also have a nice little thing going with remastering PS2 and PS1 classics. it doesn’t seem to make front page anywhere, and doesn’t solve backwards compatibility from PS3 and on wards) first party titles really is the only thing Sony has got going for the PlayStation. i will admit that they have some fantastic first party titles. but unless they can play a similar field as Microsoft and/or Nintendo, first party titles is all they are going to have. which will either mean the PlayStation getting buried or becoming a niche console that is overpriced. (i just hope Sony doesn’t get any bigger of a head and think constantly releasing poorly designed hardware and devices is going to keep getting overlooked.)
P.S. not mad -_^
AdamSwine what an appropriate name LOL a true comment of a swine
Nah Fam the vita is flames, and why are you here?
I guess you must be lower than garbage to took your time to post your hatred toward Sony on Post regarding Sony handheld..
There should be a tutorial here to update the PSVita to proper versions. I’m still at 3.63 and know no way to update it to the 3.65. Some help would be appreciated.
2 min of Google Search 🙂

Does this mean that 3.67/68 users do not need henkaku enso to install adrenaline?

im confused as well to this glad im not the only one.
Henkaku Enso allows your vita to remain hacked even after a reboot. So you can run Adrenaline after a reboot with Henkaku Enso.
With firmware 3.67 and 3.68, there is no Enso, so the Henkaku hack doesn’t stay active after a reboot. All this means is that if you turn your vita off and then on, you won’t be able to launch Adrenaline and other homebrew apps again until you run the app or website that re-enables it again.
Tl;dr, Adrenaline works on 3.67 and 3.68 only after the hack has been re-activated after rebooting.
HENkaku Enso is the perma install hack, anything above 3.65 cannot use Enso. You still need a hacked console for adrenaline.
I like how Chrono Cross is the example of fast forwarding lol. Once you’ve completed chrono cross and start new game+ you can fast forward gameplay.anyay
Im in fw3.65 so i dont need this?
Sure you do. It adds features. Can’t see any reason not to update. I mean you don’t need to update it but why use an older version that doesn’t have ps1 fast forwarding ability?
