PS VITA / PSTV VPKTool v1.8

Changelog v1.8.0

• Removed the beta label from the release. All reported bugs have been fixed.
• Cleaned up the code ... this is growing.
• Added preliminary support for MaiDumpTool. For now there are only the security checks. Click to open the folder or drag on the logo. Only folders with root Never, no parent without strange structures, only the folder [title_id], although in reality there is no need to call him [title_id].
• For Never mode, use the check box under the logo. VPKTool remember the setting and go to start the mode.Default as the first mode of execution, is Dumpa VPK from vitamin. Check the "Never mode" check box for the dump mode MaiDumpTool.
• The dump by Mai are confused, we must check it thoroughly before continuing (sometimes without the eboot_origin.bin file or folder without mai_mode ... such a mess).
• Folders are important! Do not use the odd folders like the desktop folder, main folder or any important folder to the temporary folder of VPKTool, these will be erased after the operations !!!
• Adding a small hash calculator in the Help screen / info. Probably it would not be useful for most users, to use just drag and drop the file into the text field to receive various information about the file.

Changelog v1.7.7 (beta)

• Fixed a stupid bug.
• Increased the version number to update automatically.

Changelog v1.7.6 (beta)

• Bugfix release. All previously reported bugs have been fixed.
• Fixed some bugs in the paths. Now everything is placed in the paths set in the settings panel, but the renaming and repacking runs in the path of the VPK file.
• Added detection of new malicious ... pay attention, however, there are millions of different ways to hide them.Do not download homebrew from unknown sources !!
• The Readme file contents can now be found in the "Info" panel (Help button).

Changelog v1.7.5 (beta)

• Added many other security controls. This is the latest version with new security measures, we hope that will suffice. Now it's time to finish all the work remained unfinished after the release of version 1.7.
• Added 2 small indicators for VPK file and the state of the EBOOT file security (for those who hate reading text).

Changelog v1.7.1 / 2/3/4 (beta)

• Fixed a bug when trying to divide and rename a file at the same time (v1.7.1 Beta).
• Added extra information to strangers VPK files, such as for example homebrew (v1.7.2 Beta).
• Added support for MaiDumpTool v233.2z10 (v1.7.3 Beta).
• Fixed a bug in the automatic FTP upload mode (V1.7.4 beta).

Changelog v1.7 (beta)

• There are some malicious dump around (PCSE00229 - Fruit Ninja and PCSE00256 - Kung Fu Rabbit, do not dump made by "Never"), this is a quick update that allows you to view important information about dumpati files, in order to decide on what to do.
• The option used to mark files as safe is no longer optional, now every time you divide or re-create a VPK file will be marked as safe.
• Added online update, now you can update VPKTool whenever a new version is released.
• Added a new option to create VPK file (now you can choose to create a new VPK file to a folder, as it contains all the necessary files, or merge a folder and another VPK file (useful for recreating a previously divided VPK) .
• Removed option to compress the folder _ftp [title_id], since it does not touch the original VPK files, which is what you should keep, consider this option useless.
• Added a new option used to rename the VPK file in the settings panel. This way you can choose what to show and what to hide in VPK renamed files.
• Fixed a bug when trying to rename files with a TITLE attribute in PARAM.SFO containing a carriage return character.
• Added information within the dumping instrument.
• Now the application displays a warning message on startup, if you do not find the paths defined in the settings panel. In this case first correct the paths, otherwise you will not be able to open the VPK file.
• Fixati a couple of bugs (nothing serious, I just forgot to disable some of the check boxes on the main screen).

v1.6

• Added very basic game ripping functionality to save space on memory card (ripping is done on the fly on upload... i hate game rips and don't want to see them spread. If you want to share your rips you will need to download from your PSVita and repack manually. Just added this so you can save space on memory card while keeping the full dumps.
• VPK Renaming to proper names
• Modified the logo :P
• Small fixes here and there
• Now accepting donations :P If you like this tool, are happy with it and feel like donating, i'll be happy to use the raised cash to buy a second memory card just in case mine gets corrupt, which seems to be happening quite often... Sony's quality control...).

v1.5
- Added manual option to upload game data folder.
- Added auto upload mode.

v1.4 (beta)

• Changed the way some things are done to avoid errors with big files (now all file sizes and manually edited vpks to add modules to make some games work should not error).
• Added preliminary FTP support and FTP promoting (you can now list all games/homebrew in the ux0:/app folder. The "installed" column will indicate if the game is fully installed (Yes - means something else is there apart from the eboot.bin and sce_sys directory -i'm actually checking for sce_module since all games i've checked do have modueles // No / HB means the games is not fully installed -you didn't transfer the extracted data folder yet, or it is homebrew -since homebrew has no sce_modules directory).

For FTP promoting you need VitaShell 0.95 or higher. After promoting has finished, you need to transfer the [TITLE_ID]_ftp folder manually. This will be finished in next version.. this is just a beta one for testing FTP funcionality.

- Added a "Settings option" where you can manually edit the PSVita FTP server parameters, and a delay option (mainly used to avoid errors when listing FTP contents... The delay is in milliseconds (1 second = 1000 milliseconds). Values too low, will generate listing errors. You can play around with it until no error, depends on WiFi speeds a lot.

v1.3.1

• Another small bug fix release for wrong repacks! Since i do not extract the whole thing when possible my app relies on correct ZIP structures, but seems everyone add the modules in different ways. This should hopefully fix all repacks now. Thinking of adding an option to add modules to the vpk from my app.
