So I went ahead and tried to dump the DLC songs for Love Live! School Idol Festival ~after school ACTIVITY~ Wai-Wai!Home Meeting!! but I just cannot get them to work. I understand that it's not possible to get DLC if they need extra data.

I checked the game with PS4 PKG Tool and I see that all the DLC songs are inside the base game in a folder literally called "dlc" and I was even able to decrypt the files and listen to them.

Still, when I tried to use the fake_dlc_pkg to dump the DLC I got a warning about DLC containing extra data...

I installed the fPKG's but they didn't work.

Basically, I just wanted to know how the fPKG regarding DLC work because in theory this should've worked. I don't know if there is something else y'all refer to extra data because if I understand correctly these DLC's don't need "extra data", they work like keys that give you access to the contents that are already in the base game. Thanks.

So let me know if I understand this right. Til this day, it is simply not possible to unlock or create FPKGs for retail DLC that's been downloaded from PSN? I've been trying for days how to figure out this mess with my Valkyria Chronicles 4 DLC. No dumper could see it, so I had to manually extract the ac.pkgs over FTP, reinstall them over the base game FPKG and when loaded I get a failed to authenticate error in-game.

afaik, dlc unlockers no longer work. you can create unlockers for themes though. they're like the c00 games on the ps3 in that the only thing unique between packages is the content id. that will work for retail themes, at least every one I've tried has worked (over 60 of them). normal dlc though will not.

I use it as part of things when making custom Beat Saber tracks but there is no retail involved when I do that so maybe the end goal is a little different. Apologies for perhaps misunderstanding what OP is trying to do.

When you say "no longer work", you mean the easy way to make them automatically from a PS Store URL?
Cause I can't see how would non-URL ones suddenly stop on a PS4 that never connected to PSN.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space

    Nor clothes 🤮 . Saves on time, soap, water and money having to wash them. :D
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @rqkaiju2, Physical media is a great source for archiving your data, none of that cloud storage shiz.
