Excellent! Let me know if it all works out for you!
It worked, and it's the exact same file structure I have. So what I've noticed is that the eboot file in yours is a different file size than the eboot file that's in the snes emulator folder I downloaded from the VHBL homebrew thread. Either way, your version with the eboot worked. Thanks.

No problem, I'm glad you got it all figured out! It's weird because I used the one from SMOKE's thread :p.

Weird, I've never used .cht files.

Edit: Wait ... while installing? Did you use the one I provided in this tutorial? Do not unzip the INSTALL.ZIP. If it still won't install, what game did you use to exploit?

When I go to install the SNES emulator it doesn't ask me if I want to install it, instead it shows me the files like data.bin, icon0.png etc. At first I thought I might have done something wrong with VHBL but I tried Wagic and that installed just fine. The INSTALLER.zip is not compressed, I used the store setting, I've used both winrar and 7zip and nothing has worked. The file structure seems to be correct as well. Btw I'm using the North American version of Arcade Darts for the exploit.
The file name you want is "INSTALL.ZIP".

Edit: Just use the SNES9xTYL I've provided in the tutorial. Don't modify anything, just copy over and install. Please follow all the steps closely.

Sweet, thanks for the info! Did the gPSP link in this tutorial work at all?
Yes It works sorry for the delay

Try re-downloading the version provided in this tutorial, re-transferring it to your Vita, then re-installing. It's possible something corrupted or didn't transfer at some point. Some people recommend 138menu if you continue having issues.

Hmm, I can transfer the gbSP file over and go into the Saved Games directory within VHBL but when I choose to install the zip if fails and closes out of VHBL. I used the same structure but added the ROMs into the gpSP ROMs folder and used store compression. Any ideas?

i hate this, spend all day trying to run at least one emulator and only masterboy work

i use Arcade Pool

NPUZ00281SLOT00_DISTRIB_v3.zip - US

NesterJ AoEX R3 works but can´t find any rom

SNES9xTYL 0.4.2 frezze and make noise like copying files

picodrive frezze and make noise like copying files

Masterboy Runs, only one rom per install

it´s just me, or the compatibility its that bad?

also not sure if the ROMS directory needs to be installed, it´s frezzes anyway

and there is any way to delete the homebrew i already installed?
