This patcher is capable of detecting and patching 234 different PSX game discs containing LibCrypt protection. After using this patcher on a supported LibCrypt protected PSX disc image you can then:
-
Burn a backup CD-R that works on all soft-mods and hard-mods (even non-stealth mod-chips).
-
Burn a backup CD-R with any burning software, without any additional SBI files. IMGBurn, CDRTools, CDRDAO, they all work with the patched image.
-
Use the disc image in an emulator without needing SBI files. No $ PSX Emu works great (even on Linux with Lutris/wine). So does DuckStation if you disable the
Require SBI fileoption, found in the advanced settings.
If you know of a game/revision this patcher does not yet support, can supply a better patch for a game, or improve something else, open a Github issue

The easiest way to use this on Windows is to simply drag the first/only data track bin file of the LibCrypt protected CD image onto the lcp.exe executable file.
Alternatively you may run cmd.exe or command.com and run lcp.exe with the first/only data track bin file as the sole argument.
The easiest way to use this on Linux (If your desktop environment supports it that is) is to simply drag the first/only data track bin file of the LibCrypt protected CD image onto the lcp executable file.
Alternatively you may start your terminal and run lcp with the first/only data track bin file as the sole argument. This usage method is recommended if you use the .deb package.

Formula One 99 (Europe) (Preproduction) - found this on hiddenplace but the patch I had didn't work. Need to develop or port over the exising bypass in a new patch.
LMA Manager 2001 (Europe) (Preproduction) - can't find this disc image, probably doesn't work with existing patch for the final release.
Les Cochons de Guerre (France) (Best of Infogrames) - can't find this disc image, but probably already works with existing patch.
Space Debris (Germany) (Preproduction) - can't find this disc image, probably doesn't work with existing patch for the final release.
Massive thankyou to Icarus/Paradox for releasing the PPF source under open terms:
ApplyPPF3.c (Linux Version) written by Icarus/Paradox Big Endian support by Hu Kares. Applies PPF1.0, PPF2.0 & PPF3.0 Patches (including PPF3.0 Undo support) Feel free to use this source in and for your own programms.
I was able to change applyppf3_linux.c into a small C library that I could call into from a function, applying internally contained const unsigned char arrays based on boot file/version detection hence making this whole thing possible once I assembled all of the PPF patches.
They released proper Spyro: Year of the Dragon (Europe) (En,Fr,De,Es,It) (v1.0.1), Spyro: Year of the Dragon (Europe) (En,Fr,De,Es,It) (v1.1), and Sydney 2000 (Europe) LibCrypt patches as well as some interesting info on patching LibCrypt.
Posted about an archive of LibCrypt patches, making this very easy to put together once all documented and configured.
Thanks to your work, I was able to put all of this together! I hope to better document the patch credits in a future update.
Libcrypt Patcher is released under the 3-BSD license, see the file license.txt (found in each release) for full info.
