Add Devklic to dev_klics.txt

I only want to remark something about adding klics to dev_klics.txt

Probably many have noticed a line of dashes at the bottom of the file that I used update... that line is intentional... It's there as a work around due a *bug* in devklic_bruteforcer.exe reading the last line. So the line of dashes is supposed to be the last line.

If there are klicensees listed below that line, it's possible that devklic_bruteforcer.exe will not read the last key (i.e. the last line)...

This bug has been fixed in v2.1. Just confirmed again.

And thanks for your effort on sorting dev_klics.txt, it's really helpful.

@jjkkyu could you add a scan mode to fast rebuild option. some dlc has edats on separate folders and its a hassle having to put them back after rebuilding them

that's not a bad idea. the closest thing is to use robocopy:

Code:
robocopy [source folder] [destination folder] *.edat /E

robocopy is built into windows, so there's no need to download anything. the above will replicate the folder structure and transfer over all edat files to pkg easily or for use with true ancestor.

nice, ill try it out
 
if u want to add sprx or self files, just add the same .sprx or .self with an asterisk before it, so that robocopy transfers all sprx/self files. it's perfect for pkg creation since u won't pkg unnecessary files. I used this method for the param.sfo to reinstall many dlc/games.. :p it's what u want to do if u have to format the hdd, and all ur content is on an external drive. it was the basis of my first tutorial. it might work well here. :)

the latest version 1.65 already scans the sub directory, and all you want to do is to put the whole game folder in edat folder.
 
no such plan yet. that's rather complex and no more energy to do this.
I love the tools also! I would only have one request...
Any plans to fix the pkg rebuilder so that pkg using a category other than game can also be rebuilt? [emoji6]

my tutorials show how to make every package but the avatar one if u want to do it manually.

Well a workaround is great of course, but still the pkg rebuilder would need to be updated. I don't think it would be a lot of work.

Am even willing to do the work if given the source code! [emoji6]

what do you mean 'a category'?
I mean it can only package apps that go in the game column i.e. the game category as defined by category_game.xml.
If you try packing a AV App Video, AM App Music, photo, TV.... It fails...

Strange that you don't like Mediafire, it's one of my favourites actually, along with Sendspace, Mega & Dropbox...

Anyway, there are many such pkg available on official link.

Try this one for instance:
http://b0.ww.np.dl.playstation.net/...P00030_00-NETFLIXRIGEL01NA-A0211-V0100-PE.pkg

I could compile a list for you but there's one out there which isn't really updated but contains more than enough material for you.
Check out the official pkg links listed in each section of the OP in this page:
http://www.nextgenupdate.com/forums...eaming-multimedia-app-package-collection.html

Most of the packages linked there are relevant to this issue, even the patched one.

And yes of course, pm me whenever you need. It'll be my pleasure to help if I can. [emoji6]
