A patch to make Crashlands playable on the PS Vita
This patch does not contain any game files from Crashlands. You need the game files from your legally owned copy. If you don't have a copy of the game, you can buy it HERE It *WILL NOT WORK with an illegal copy of the game due to hash check.
IMPORTANT (1): The patch does not work with current version of the game in Steam. Here's how to get game files of supported version on Steam.
- Open the Steam console
- Download specific version of the game by typing this command:
download_depot 391730 391731 750708251145921383
. It may look like it doesn't do anything, but wait a few minutes - When the downloading is done, you will see this message:
Depot download complete : [PATH_TO_THE_DOWNLOADED_GAME_FILES]
- Go to the folder and run the path there.
Normal installation:
- Download the VPK and install it on your hacked PS Vita
- In your PC, open the folder when you have installed Crashlands (Steam using previous IMPORTANT (1) instruction)
- Download the patch for your version and extract it in that folder. After that, run
apply_patch.bat
. This will create a folder calledPatched_Files
- If everything went correctly, your Patched_Files folders will have a file called
eboot.bin
and a folder calledgames
with a lot ofaudiogroup.dat
files and agame.win
file. - Copy
eboot.bin
and thegames
folder and move them to the vita,ux0:app/CRASHLAND.
Overwrite when prompted. - Copy all the
.ogg
files from your PC Crashlands folder intoux0:app/CRASHLAND/games
- Optional: Overclock your CPU to 444mhz with PSV Shell to mitigate some microstuttering.
IMPORTANT (2): This patch is not confirmed to work with any other version that it's not the current latest build of Steam. It should support other versions but it's very likely it won't properly.
- Loading times are pretty long, so don't be afraid, your Vita didn't crash. About 2 minutes.
- Autosave is not super reliable. Use manual save too (just press Select for quicksave)
