#Vagrant story eboot Patch

I see it this way, Paradox spent a lot of time finding and removing all the libcrypt code if in exchange for that they want me to watch their intro for a few seconds then so be it.Īnyway, this is a very long-winded way of saying : this particular patch works for SLES-02754 and that is all that matters for me. As annoying as the intro is I can live with it since it is just a click on the X button and it goes away. So I am inclined to just leave the PPFs as is. (and remove the wrong one it means that maybe you removed the libcrypt check that happens at some cut-scene when you are 20 hours into the game, wic would suck) I would imagine that the libcrypt part of the PPF would all be relatively small segments of a few bytes to just NOP out a conditional jump or similar in the machine-code and that all the larger ones would be the segments containing the music graphics and the code for the intro.īut still, it would be a LOT of work to go through and test which ones you can remove and which ones you can not.

It would definitely be possible to remove the individual patches that are just the intro and are not about libcryptīut the PPF contains 2503 different segments all ranging from a handful of bytes to many that are up to 255 bytes in size.

the important part is that the patch works and the game boots. Unfortunately this PPF also adds an annoying intro-screen immediately after the game has booted with annoying music but it goes away once you click X. This is a PPF2 file and after applying this this patch to the. Which contains the ppf file for the game pdx-vsuk.ppfĢ94324e7142573df9eee82cfe5220b59 pdx-vsuk.ppf

I really like pointing people to this review of the game.I did a quick test on Vagrant Story SLES-02754 that is libcrypt enabled.īuilding an EBOOT and running it on a PSP boots the game, plays the intro movie and brings up the start menu.Īfter selecting NEW GAME libcrypt kicks in and the game just hangs with a 'now loading' screen.ĭownloading and extracting this zip file: If Vagrant Story is what Matsuno does to an action RPG in the Parasite EVE engine on the PS1 then Crimson Shroud is what he does to a dungeon crawler JRPG on the 3DS. If you want something with a similar effect then I can only recommend Crimson Shroud for the 3DS. Its art design works so well with the limitations of the hardware, s creating really cool setpieces and character design.

You get the more backstory and that way the one you posted makes more sense.Īnd here's a video that shows the startup FMV and as a followup the intro you posted: Īll the camera work and transitions are great but I really love the simple switch from 'portcullis dropping into place' into the next set of credits :DĪnd here's the last piece of the 'intro', when you arrive in Lea Monde: If I remember correctly it plays if you idle on the title screen (all the videos have some odd texture stuff and the game was also initially made for CRT screens): A bit late but what you posted is not the first intro of the game.
