Here is a modded ARK pboot bubble to auto boot into whatever game or homebrew you want from Live Area.
From the readme:
[spoiler]Here is a modded ARK-2 to auto boot whatever game or homebrew you have configured.

Copy PBOOT.PBP and SAVEPATH.TXT to base game folder,
which should be located in ms0:/PSP/GAME/ (that's ux0:pspemu/PSP/GAME/).
Then use CMA/QCMA to backup the base game to your PC,
then restore the game back to your Vita.

You should now see the base game with an ARK icon,
or to whatever icon you have changed in PBOOT.PBP,
you can also update the title for PBOOT.PBP.

For each game you want to auto boot, you will need to use a different name for the savedata folder,
so you will need to update the path in SAVEPATH.TXT to point to the savedata folder.

For example:
ms0:/PSP/SAVEDATA/THIS_GAME_SAVE_FOLDER/ARK.BIN
or:
ms0:/PSP/SAVEDATA/THAT_HOMEBREW_SAVE_FOLDER/ARK.BIN

Included save, ARK_01234, has a file called BOOTPATH.TXT,
there you can store the path of the game that you want to auto boot.

Here is an example path for an ISO (or CSO):
ms0:/ISO/THE_MOST_AWESOME_GAME_IN_THE_WORLD.cso

or for homebrew (or PS1 game, without sound):
ms0:/PSP/GAME/SOME_AWESOME_HOMEBREW/EBOOT.PBP

it doesn't matter where the game or homebrew is located,
as long as you have the correct paths, it'll launch.

To boot back in the ProShell menu,
hold L trigger + R trigger + Down + Cross, and keep R trigger held.

Do NOT use ux0: path in these files, only use ms0:.[/spoiler]
Do not use ux0: path in these files, only use ms0:.

How are you able to make it work. I've done all the steps in instructions but just after opening it closes after showing minis screen

Not working here either. I've followed the instructions correctly and got really mad thinking I was doing something wrong but it looks like I'm not the only one. Same issue with people over at Reddit.

Hmm yea got an error on my end, tested game on regular ARK to make sure it actually runs the game and yea it does.

Game im trying is Bakemonogatari Portable, I edited the pboot and sfo to make the live area booble match the game and renamed the save to be able to add more games and everything is pointing in the correct locations afaik.
Error is C1-2858-3 which iirc didn't Adrenaline have this error before?

EDIT: Here is the PBOOT and shiz I made, IDK maybe I messed something up :/
