PS5 [Tutorial] How To Dump, Fakesign, & Run PS5 Game Backups (Text Guide)

[alexfree]

I can't believe the scene has advanced this far in such a short amount of time. Yes, you can dump your PSN games/apps (important for digital only releases we will never be able to download again without loosing Jailbreak) as well as physical disc releases. Not all of them will work in dump folder format, but alot of them do and it's only going to get better in time I'm sure. https://alex-free.github.io/ps5-game-backups-guide/.

Just updated to the guide to v1.0.1. Added instructions on how to turn a game dump folder into the following formats:

.FFPKG (UFS2, "native" recommended format for ShadowMountPlus).
.FFPFS (PFS, ShadowMountPlus, expiremental support just added in beta releases of ShadowMountPlus, none of my games tested so far work in this format).
.FFPFS (PFS Compressed, ShadowMountPlus, expiremental support just added in beta releases of ShadowMountPlus, none of my games tested so far work in this format but it can reduce the size of the image by more then half, at the expense of reducing read speeds/load times in-game).
