Vita3k+ v1.0 Release (Killzone, CoD, LBP, etc playable)

Release of my fork of Vita3k. Killzone, CoD, Little Big Planet, etc should all be playable.

Enhancements

  • Killzone Plays well and looks amazing
  • Resistance Colours are now all good. Intermittent freezing has been fixed.
  • Assassin's Creed III: Liberation: Graphical issues fixed
  • LittleBigPlanet: Missing backgrounds, starting sounds and other graphics fixed
  • Need for Speed: Most Wanted: floating badges fixed, headlights through the road fixed, sound fixed (mostly).
  • Call of Duty: Declassified Boots and plays well now
  • Uncharted Now plays at any resolution plus minor fixes
  • Devious Dungeon Now launches fine
  • Sonic Transformed Plays well and looks amazing (new per game thread accuracy setting to ensure a good startup)
  • Spider-Man No longer sometimes hangs on load.
  • Helldivers No longer sometimes crashes at startup
  • Soul Sacrifice Delta: Graphical issues fixed
  • Minecraft was a white screen in Vulkan, now fixed
  • Kancolle Kai Now plays without getting stuck at the difficulty selection screen

Hopefully a lot of crash bugs and freezing have been fixed by these changes. Other games may now be a lot better or possibly worse with this version.

Notes

  • The settings now default to High Quality
  • These updates were designed with higher-end devices in mind. Although I have attempted to make them work and tested on Mali based devices (i.e. Killzone works fine on a Mali-G78 MP14 device I have) that is not the goal of this fork.
  • For better character shadows in Killzone use a memory mapping of External Host on Windows or Native Buffer on Android. Double Buffer works well but makes the shadows flicker annoyingly.

Danganronpa Controller Issue? Recently I finally got vita3k running games and i thought i had it all sorted till i started playing 'Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc' and for whatever reason the X button's function isnt working in gameplay and i dont have any idea why.

For additional info that may be relevant the X button does work in times to click thru the textboxs and the menu but once I'm in game it doesn't work​.

Other game I have (seen in picture) does have the proper functions for the X Button Tried re-mapping to another controller config to no luck Vita3k​ has definitely been the most frustrating emulation process I've done

Vita3K Android: Need help installing games

​

I'm using Vita3K v0.2.1 (build 4074) on Android and I'm completely stuck with game installation.

What I'm trying to figure out:

  1. What are the reliable sources for obtaining PS Vita game files?

  2. What exact file format should I be downloading for Vita3K?

  3. How should I install the game on Android?

  4. Do I need a separate license/key file such as zRIF, or anything else?

I previously tried downloading Vita games from ROM sites, but I ended up with ZIP archives.

When I used it , it shows it's installed but I can't see that game in my vita3k(like , it is installed but , not visible and accessible

I've already spent several hours trying to figure this out, but most guides either skip the Android-specific steps or are outdated.

I'd really appreciate a clear explanation of the correct file format + installation process(step by step things to do in order) + required license files for Vita3K Android(and how to add them in order )

Please, help me !

Reco Love: Gold Beach — Unofficial English Translation

An unofficial English translation patch for Reco Love: Gold Beach on PS Vita is now available.

The translation uses MTL with some editing. Most of the script has been translated, though there are still some rough lines, pronoun issues, messy signs, and alignment/length issues in places. The tools are also provided for anyone who wants to improve or build their own translation.

I'm using the latest build of Vita3K Android, but I haven't found a temporary fix for the game's rendering issue where the character models don't appear.

Is The Current Build of Vita3k Better than the Older Ones?

Title. For an MTK Helio G99 phone. (Infinix Hot 40 Pro)

Or should I stay with this older build which in the past was very stable for many of the games that I played on my phone?

Here's some of the games that I wanted to play other than the ones slightly visible on the screenshot:

- Senran Kagura Estival Versus

  • Bullet Girls Phantasia (edited because just realized Blue Reflection had already available on my phone)

I'll also gladly hear other playable Vita JRPG recommendation if you don't mind 🙏

(Anyway I were too focused being a Gacha game slave to the point that I almost never had any time to touch emulator and offline games)

I need your multiplayer/game recommendations!

I have an S25 Ultra with 12GB RAM, Adreno 830, and Snapdragon 8 Elite. It's an amazing phone for emulating all systems. I just got around to getting Vita3K and need game recommendations!

I love racing games, action games, and sometimes turn-based games. I tend to stay away from sports and anime games. Multiplayer isn't required, but I would prefer the option.

Persona 4 Golden lags and crashes after a few minutes of playing on Android, is this happening for anyone else?

This makes P4 unprogressible for me, I can't save anywhere and can't progress if the game crashes every 10 mins :p

I'm using my Samsung Z Fold 4 (Snapdragon 8 Gen 1) on One UI 5.1, the version is the latest one for Android, v0.2.1 build 4074. All my graphics settings are untouched and I'm using the MrPurple Turnip T28 GPU driver. The game runs fine for 10-15 minutes until it decides it doesn't want to anymore and gives up on me. This is the 5th time it's happened in the past hour and a half. The compatibility list says P4 is playable though, is that for PC?

Edit: I solved it by using an older build and opening settings in a pop up window to optimise ram when it gets high; whenever the game starts lagging and is about to crash, I optimise ram a few times from the settings app and the game stops lagging.

I can't get anything to install

Trying to Install some ROMs on my retroid pocket 5 via VITA3K. I installed all required firmware.

- I have tried packaging and re-packaging the zip in many configurations. I cannot seem to find online a definitive way to pack these zips. Every time I try a new configured zip and try the install it says "installation successful", yet nothing shows up. (for reference i am using a mac to compress these files)

-perhaps it's the way these particular ROMs files are organized that is messing up how I package the zip?

- I even tried manually installing the PCSE folders into the ux0/app folder - no results.

Help I am in despair… (about Steins;Gate Linear Bounded Phenogram English Patch)

I have been trying to install Steins;Gate Linear Bounded Phenogram’s English Patch for hours but i just couldn’t. Tried lots of things, but nothing changed.

In detail:

My phone is Oppo A74.

I installed the latest version of vita3k from its website, also installed everything needed after installing the app. I downloaded the game as a .zip file (nonpdrm it says idk) and installed it in the vita3k app. Then when i tried to install the patch, the app asked for permission and i accepted it. Then literally nothing happened. Tried again, same thing.

I dont know if this is how its supposed to be but when i look into the app’s files, theres no folder named “rePatch” or something like that. I created one (by following gemini’s directions), manually copied the patch, checked the folder names (PCSG00250>gamedata etc). I also tried deleting bg.cpk from game files and copy the patch’s bg.cpk (the only thing in the unzipped patch is eventually a file named bg.cpk). Then the game couldn’t open at all. Summary of my last a few hours.

Im begging for help
