[Tutorial] How to know what files contains your cadridge

[niszczycielnpc]

1. Ok so you will need to dump this file on your cadridge
email:send?attach=gro0:app/GAMEID/sce_pfs/files.db.

2. Then you download this app
https://bitbucket.org/tomtomdu80/listdirvita/downloads

3. You drag&drop files.db on listdirvita.exe

4. in output.txt you will get all folders and files that are on your cadridge
If your output.txt is empty just repeat step 3.

Also this files aren't in output.txt but you need to dump it if you want install cadridge backup:

Code: Select all

(gro0:app/PCSXXXXX/sce_pfs/files.db)(gro0:app/PCSXXXXX/sce_pfs/unicv.db)
(gro0:app/PCSXXXXX/sce_sys/package/body.bin)
(gro0:app/PCSXXXXX/sce_sys/package/head.bin)
(gro0:app/PCSXXXXX/sce_sys/package/stat.bin)
(gro0:app/PCSXXXXX/sce_sys/package/tail.bin)
(gro0:app/PCSXXXXX/sce_sys/package/work.bin)

The 57.Part.2.dat I ended up with was 0 bytes. I must have done something wrong. Is there supposed to be a period at the end of "files.db."? When I was installing TN-V this way the db file path had a period in the subject line so I thought maybe it did.

edit: is the subject line (the path) supposed to include email:send?attach= or not? for the forwarding part?
because here it has that but on the other tutorial for dumping in general (on the wololo homepage) it doesn't have that

edit: accidental double post

But since I can't delete it I might as well fill it with info.
I finally got the files.db by naming the subject line "gro0:app/PCSE00120/sce_pfs/files.db" exactly like that.
However, the reason everything else I dumped was 0 bytes is because I assumed /sce_pfs/ was the root folder for the files listed in files.db, which is not the case.
"gro0:app/PCSE00120/(file from file.db output.txt)" was where the dumped file really was.

edit: accidental triple post, I was trying to edit my original post, not quote it I promise!

Hi, I don't know why but the png files I dump through this method are corrupted but they are not 0kb, I think they even have their own respected file sizes but I can't open them on the PC. Help please T.T Thanks

'Cause they are encrypted (like all files on cartridge).
