Your actually a legend so quick and simple.

[@BytePen]

Glad you liked it! This one was actually quite a bit of a challenge to condense because there are quite a few steps. It has me wondering if I would be able to create a program that does all the stuff on the PC, so all you need to do is transfer the game, run a program, then transfer the game back. It seems like it should be doable.

[@JulianCallan]

Thanks for all the videos!

[@BytePen]

Glad you like them!

Mac tutorial please

[@arqdid2018]

After I copy the hacked game back to my vita trinity doesn't show up

[@BytePen]

Are you getting any sort of error message along the way?

[@arqdid2018]

@@BytePen No, everything went just fine.. :(

[@BytePen]

Maybe try rebooting the Vita into Safemode and refreshing the database.

[@arqdid2018]

@@BytePen I did it but still no results :(

[@BytePen]

That's super weird... You are certain that you are selecting to transfer from the PC to the Vita and not accidentally selecting the other way? Is the game you are trying to exploit still there? If so, what happens if you run it?

[@roger2kswag]

Can you make a tutorial for Mac pls

[@BytePen]

I don't have a Mac, so that would be a little hard. It should really be about the same steps, though. I made a program for Windows that does the hard part of this tutorial. Would you be able to help me by answering a few questions so I can add Mac support?

[@roger2kswag]

How to install filezilla and simple account switcher on this version

[@BytePen]

I do not use filezilla because of the controversy from last year, however, you should just be able to connect to it like any other server after you launch VitaShell and press select to enable the FTP server. As far as the account switcher goes, you can check out my video on installing homebrew below. This piece of homebrew is available on Vita HomeBrew Browser. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y4eYh2V_aaaAirM Also, if you haven't already, please consider downgrading to 3.65 or 3.60. It will ensure that you are always able to hack your Vita regardless of what Sony does. kzbin.info/www/bejne/roWkoXdnhLh3hJY

[@nrmagsumboljr.503]

Hi sir,can ask how can i install a nonpdrm if my sdtovita is umao/external I just dont want to convert it to ux0 because of the chance getting GPU crush bug ,

[@BytePen]

I try to avoid nonpdrm, since it can be used for illegal means, but generally, games and Homebrew that are not on your ux0 mount will not load into your livearea. If you want to keep your games on the SD2VITA, you will need to mount it to ux0. I haven't had a single GPU crash and I have had my SD2VITA mounted to ux0. There are various things that can cause a GPU Crash (too many plugins, plugins in multiple mount points, etc.) but SD2VITA has caused me no trouble on 3.65.

[@nrmagsumboljr.503]

BytePen Studios maybe got wrong in my 1st vita, Maybe got a tutorial that making a sdtovita to uxo properly so can avoid that gpu bug x.x, Thanks do plugins recommended to be installed in ur0 when using the sdtovita uxo

[@BytePen]

This video tells you how you can properly install plugins. You don't want them in ux0, just in ur0. kzbin.info/www/bejne/b6rRe4Z4hL2amJY That's the hard way, though. I recommend you use Autoplugin as shown here instead: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b3q7aKaCbdqbe6c This video helps with managing SD2VITA. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z3ycnZ6Bityjp6s

[@avishaijahanian6472]

Back on 3.65 ur tutorial are short and getting to the point

[@jimmitheapache]

Mac tutorial plz 🙏🏼

[@BytePen]

The steps are practically identical. I'm working on getting macOS support on my FinTrinity tool, but I can seem to figure out where the config information for QCMA is stored on Mac. It's kind of difficult considering I don't have a Mac.

[@jltwin501]

I'm continously getting stuck on the replace your key with the decryption key thing, I deleted "Your Key" in the string posted on the github page and replaced it with the one i had generated but all im getting in my cmd prompt is usage: psvimg-extract -K key input.psvimg outputdir

[@jltwin501]

Could someone please break this down for me or show me exactly what the input should look like barring of course the personal key entry

[@jltwin501]

nevermind, i literally needed to add a space between -k and the numbers

[@BytePen]

Glad you got it figured out. I'm working on a tool to automate that whole middle bit, so hopefully it'll be easier in the future. I'm going to release a video showing my tool on Wednesday

[@jltwin501]

@@BytePen Mmmm, I'm sure your tool is very impressive ;)

[@BytePen]

@@jltwin501 Hah! Got 'im!

[@rpgming607]

great! I can use my 3.69 motherboard again!

[@BytePen]

You sure can! Like I said, though, you should probably turn that 3.69 into a 3.6(5) motherboard just in case.

[@aruemaru]

How do we downgrade to 3.65 after Trinity?

[@BytePen]

You can do so with modoru. I have a video on it here. kzbin.info/www/bejne/roWkoXdnhLh3hJY

[@bungershmunger3455]

Fluff I messed something up the game wont show up....I swear I did everything right but...Nothing!

[@BytePen]

It doesn't show up at all? Either as the game or as Trinity? Try to copy from your PC to your Vita again.

[@bungershmunger3455]

No I mean that's what I can't see!

[@bungershmunger3455]

I will have to try it again tomorrow

[@bungershmunger3455]

I can't see it on the PC (When I connect it my vita shows nothing) I messed something up but I don't know what, now I have to start over again...

[@BytePen]

If you are on Windows and are using Locoroco or Ape Quest, I have been working on a tool tonight to automate the middle part of this hack. It should be working pretty well, but still has room for improvement. If you want to try it, install python 3.7.3 and download the zip from my GitHub. Double click on FinTrinity.py and it should take care of the rest. github.com/bamhm182/FinTrinity All you should have to do is back it up with QCMA, run FinTrinity, refesh your database, and move it back onto your Vita.

[@noprofilepicture_]

So do i have to make a new psn account for this?

[@BytePen]

You do not need to make a new PSN account if you already have one in a region that has a demo. I already had a North American account, and I just used that.

[@noprofilepicture_]

@@BytePen Okay,so there have never been cases of people getting their accounts banned?

[@BytePen]

From what Sony can see, all you did was download a demo. It is possible that they could think it is strange that you downloaded a demo on the same day that an exploit came out, but that can't ban you for that. Additionally, the big 3 tend to ban consoles themselves rather than user accounts. Even with that, Sony doesn't seem to have ever gone after anyone because of the Vita from what I've seen.

[@BytePen]

If you're worried about it, by all means create a secondary account. That will 100% ensure your primary account is fine.

[@noprofilepicture_]

@@BytePen Thank you for the replies,i appreciate it.

[@jvgcgjkckhckchckckhhc]

I cant connect to my pc

[@BytePen]

What exactly is it doing or not doing? Have you tried rebooting your PC and Vita?

[@jvgcgjkckhckchckckhhc]

@@BytePen dw I got it, I didn't have qcma booted

[@BytePen]

That'll do it. Glad you got it working!
