Release Name : FFD-Vita v.1.0
Author : Rinnegatamante
First Release : v.1.0 - has many crash
Changelog Update : v.1.1 - FIXING most problems
Changelog Update : v.1.2 - FIXING crash on Ending

VITA Port Info Rinnegatamante :
This is a wrapper/port of Final Fantasy Dimensions for the PS Vita.
The port works by loading the official Android ARMv6 executables in memory, resolving its imports with native functions and patching it in order to properly run. By doing so, it's basically as if we emulate a minimalist Android environment in which we run natively the executable as is.

Download :
https://vitadb.rinnegatamante.it/#/info/1188
or
https://github.com/Rinnegatamante/ffd-vita/releases

Requirements :
- libshacccg.suprx
- kubridge.skprx
- Android Game Data Files v.1.1.3

Setup Vita System :
-Install kubridge and FdFix by copying kubridge.skprx and fd_fix.skprx to your taiHEN plugins folder (usually ux0:tai) and adding two entries to your config.txt under *KERNEL:
*KERNEL
ux0:tai/kubridge.skprx
ux0:tai/fd_fix.skprx
! Note : Don't install fd_fix.skprx if you're using rePatch plugin !
- Install libshacccg.suprx

Install Android Data :
- Obtain your copy of Final Fantasy Dimensions v.1.1.3 legally for Android in form of an .apk file and an obb. You can get all the required files directly from your phone or by using an apk extractor you can find in the play store.
- Open the apk with your zip explorer and extract the file libjniproxy.so from the lib/armeabi folder to ux0:data/ffd.
- From apk extract the folder ''res'' to ux0:data/ffd.
- Copy the main.113.com.square_enix.android_googleplay.ffl_gp.obb file to ux0:data/ffd and rename the file to main.obb.
- Install VPK

Install Optional :
- Install PSVshell to overclock your device to 500Mhz.

Note :
- The port has been tested with v.1.1.3 of the game.
- Once in worldmap, it's suggested to go in Menu -> Config -> Controls and set it to Fix. By doing this, it will be possible to use physical buttons to move on the map, to interact with objects (Cross) and to open the Menu (Triangle).

Credits :
- TheFloW for the original .so loader.
- frangarcj for FF5 Vita from which several code snippets had been taken since the two games share the engine.
- withLogic for testing the homebrew and providing screenshots.
- Brandonheat8 for the Livearea assets.

First Test : WORKING with v.1.1.3. apk + obb / works good enough with PSTV touchpointer

I am highly thankfull Rinnegatamante ! Kiss you. In hard times is this a game that the world need. And its a highlight for myself, playing Dimensions in first time. Thank You.

Final Result : with note of the update from v.1.2, its complete playable from start to end.

! OUTDATED Fix over Update !

Currently I have found only 1 bug that crash the game, * otherwise the port is mostly perfect.

Its a Battle-fight bug ->
when I have done 50 battles or so for level up or what ever, sometimes there comes a battle-fight where the background is missing and its black. Its easy possible to end this fight and it goes back to the world map. ! But when the next fight start after the black background, the game crash !
In this fact, when there is a fight with missing background, GO and Save the game fast as possible.
Its easy to deal with this error, outside of the map its possible to save everywhere, but when in castles or doungens run fast to the next save point and than after that search for all treasures and hidden ways or explore it.
This bug has nothing to do, how often go inside or outside a castle or what ever, its just a battle bug.

This bug is for myself not a big problem, but will inform other users -> save very often your game. When knowing this black background bug than its all fine and learn how to deal with it. Do only level up near a save point and in castles speedrun up.

I think its a android data bug, NOT a vita coder bug.

I am near on Chapter 2 and I am test everything, need more time, but mostly all fine. Great game love it !

I suppose it's time to reupload my tool to translate this game.
It allows you to translate all the texts and also export / replace any game file.
Enjoy!

Download it here:
FFDimensionsTool v1.0.0.7z

Some screenshots:

To use it correctly, open it then go into Settings > Preferences... and set your project path (where it will output modified files and build the modified obb).
Each time you use the program, open the original obb, not the modified one. The tool automatically gets the modified resources from project folder.
To make tests simply copy the built obb from project folder and place it in your phone / vita / emulator.
Once again. Enjoy!

Million thanks, testing right now !
Currently I am level up the party to 27 and job level up to 9 on 23-Highwind Tower. Will later speedrun up with high level.

EDIT :
Save file from Old v1.0 compatible with New Update v1.1 = YES
Inactive Test ~4 hour v1.0 = WORKING without any crash. very good.
Inactive Test ~4 hour v1.1 = need new test

Result v.1.1 :
Not any crash in new Update so far, not any restart used, no battle-fight crash so far. ~3hour

no crash with this period :
26 Crystal Temple = WORKING v.1.1
27 Sunken Ship = WORKING v.1.1
28 Mount Verde = WORKING v.1.1
29 Verde = WORKING v.1.1
30 Forest Hut = WORKING v.1.1

Maybe battle-fight crash and other problems FIXED to 99% ! (need more testing)

 

[Arnauw]

Oh this is awesome!
I never played that Final Fantasy.
Can this work on Vita3k?

Tried to launch the vpk file directly and got this error:
Error libshacccg.suprx is not installed.

I tried following the guide but I'm not able to install the psm-runtime with either shaRKF00D or PKGInstallerLauncher.
It looks like I could install the pkgs directly from Vita3k but it ask for zRif key or .bin file.
Maybe someone can share the zRif keys for the 3 psm-runtime pkgs please?

 

[peter8]

@ Arnauw :
sorry can not help with Vita3k, just open a new topic and ask specific so you get faster help. yes its a great game.
anyway is there not a real android pc emulator ? I am unsure ? in this fact you would not need vita3k.

*

Test Result v.1.1 :
mostly perfect and many crash fixes. but game can still crash from time to time when playing more than 1 or 2 hour, just restart game. mostly all fine now.
currently on 39 Pirate Island

 

[peter8]

I'm getting the same results. tried finding the lib folder when opening apk in file explorer on phone. What solved the issue for you? I've hit a wall and am out of ideas of how to fix this

Is your folder like double layed in a way where you open it and then after you have to open it as the same name? I used vitashell then connected it to my pc but I don't know what to do on a mobile device, but thats what fixed my problem other than the buttons working in weird ways.

No, i've had this problem before. The folder, is single layered. I'm currently trying to find a file libjniproxy said to be found in a lib/aremabei but after extracting the offical apk, i still cannot find it.
