Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale

  • PS4_db_rebuilder

    ps4 built in database rebuilder has the tendency to remove fpkg from the database, this will repopulate the database with them

  • Rebuilding the database causing pkg files to disappear until you run this script. So the fact they are disappearing made me think your ps4 must have tried or successfully rebuilt its database at some point.

  • fPKG_Maker_GUI

    A user friendly User Interface for fPKG Tools for PS4

  • https://github.com/codemasterv/fPKG_Maker_GUI are you using this because I hear it's the bees knees This is the post I was referencing, parsed to the git link

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • psDLC

  • if the dlc is present in the update, or main game then you could try to unlock it with a fake dlc maker such as psDLC.

  • fw

    Simple Bash script that shows PS4 PKGs' required firmware. Useful to quickly check if you could need a backport or need to spoof your PS4's firmware version. (by hippie68)

  • Spoofing or ignoring (GoldHEN) can get you past the firmware requirement but not past the SDK requirement. The latter requires a backport. "Software" distributors usually don't offer backports. I found this particularly useful: https://github.com/hippie68/fw.
