0syscall6 VS reF00D

Don’t update. Go with https://github.com/SKGleba/0syscall6, and change spoof version in Settings > Henkaku Settings to 3.74

Instead of using this and later coming to this sub again asking for help after it breaks your Vita by you installing some unfortunate combination of plugins, learn how to install the plugins you need manually. For that, you just place the .skprx or .suprx file of the plugin you want into ur0:tai, and then make according changes to the config.txt file. For details, check out the description for each plugin in its GitHub page (for example, here under Usage for the 0syscall6 plugin).

Spoof does nothing about game FW requirements. 0syscall6 or reF00D do.

0syscall6 lv0 secure_kernel syscall6 patch - can replace reF00d (SKGleba)

There's no reason to but if you really want to install vita deploy and do it through that. But you might as well install a plugin so you can play games that require a higher firmware on a lower one. https://github.com/SKGleba/0syscall6

Regarding your first conclusion: Using the Ref00d plug-in should allow you to run any game regardless of your firmware version. Also having NoNpDrm is a must. Ensure you have properly modded your Vita according to this guide, and all that should be setup.

Spoof does nothing about game FW requirements. 0syscall6 or reF00D do.

reF00D Allows user to bypass firmware requirements on games and system applications (dots-tb)

I just noticed you don't have either/or reF00D or 0syscall6 installed. It's up to you which you prefer as they both do the same task. Install one or the other and reboot and try again.

Sharkfood! No, its used for something else entirely. You'll need these plugins. NoNpDrm to by-pass drm checks and 0syscall6 (either / or: reFOOD) to by-pass firmware checks.

fw 3.65 works the same as fw 3.60. Do you have all the proper plugins to play pirated games? Such as reFOOD / 0syscall6 ( you can either doesn't matter) and noNODRM installed?

Likely not reFOOD but be sure to be using the latest version. More than likely its a plugin in ur0:tai that maybe causing the issue. Go through and move (or remove) any (each) user installed plugins and reboot and try the game.

Sorry I forgot about this post:D Is it the latest version of reFOOD? Another possibility maybe perhaps there is a plugin that maybe causing the issue. I went ahead and installed Sound Shape and its DLC (not all) and it launched with no problem. I'm also on fw 3.60.
