PS Vita Homebrew Preparer - Convert PSP Hombrew to VHBL

Post by xX-SNIPER-Xx » Wed Mar 28, 2012 1:47 pm

The PS Vita news just does not stop, and a developer by the name of SiLENTGame has released a tool for converting PSP homebrew into VHBL ready files, easily transferable through Open CMA. The tool is called PS Vita Homebrew Preparer, and it makes the job of preparing your PSP homebrews for the PS Vita Half-Byte Loader a lot simpler.

I called this program "PS Vita Homebrew Preparer".

It decompress the PSP homebrew game for you and compress it again with some saves included so that you only have to copy the folder via OpenCMA to your PS Vita.

I hope you like this tool and i look forward to some feedback of you so that I can optimize this tool.

Sorry for my bad English. :/

So long

really ? I tried it and it actually doesn't generate an uncompressed ZIP file, but a compressed one, so I wonder if that's really compatible with wMenu :O

as I just said it doesn't create an uncompressed install.zip archive, but a compressed one, according to my tests.
So it shoudldn't be fully compatible with wMenu for now I guess :|

its not compatible "AT ALL" for me.. ive tried installing 5 homebrews through CMA, none of them show up.. Now i need to manually go in and look for thoses files... hopefully the developer of this app can fix this soon, it would be nice if his app would also do the work of storing the homebrew into install.zip format..

Sorry, let me rephrase that.....

I meant the program works and it makes an install.zip with the game save. I haven't tested it out with VHBL yet. :|

Use gpSP Kai 3.4 Test 3 Build 152

Also for Geometry Wars indeed, maybe it's not compatible finally I don't know, may be some tiny thing to revert back since it looks like I got it running a moment ago
