Today PlayStation 4 developer @XVortex kicked us out of the kitchen by announcing that his PKG Kitchen is no longer needed, and introduced his latest GP4 Generator all-in-one utility called GenGP4 which combined with the FTP server is everything you need to dump PlayStation 4 games including a more reliable tree-decrypting method alongside shorter instructions below! :D

Download: gengp4.exe / gengp4.zip (641 KB) / ps4-dumper.bin / GIT

To quote: "No more .pkg extraction, .pfs extraction, file merging etc. FTP server dumps the game to HDD folder, then gp4gen sanitizes this folder and generates the .gp4."

To quote from @XVortex's condensed guide on using GenGP4:

1) Turn on the console, insert disc (or run psn title), install all game patches;
2) Plug-in the USB stick, run the ps4-dumper payload (.bin or standalone);
3) Run your game, make sure to get main menu, minimize game (PS Button);
4) Wait till completion. When the process is finished the lights stop blinking
and console will shutdown automatically (it is normal, not a panic shutdown);
5) Turn on your console, remove disc, uninstall the game (for further testing);
6) On PC: Plug-in the USB Stick, then open gengp4.exe, point into CUSAxxxxx dir
and press Generate .GP4, You should get the 'Done.', then press Save .GP4;
7) Open .gp4 in the orbis-pub-gen and build .pkg file
(You can get the orbis-pub-gen tool via PKG_Fake_Generator);
8) Run PS4HEN payload, install and test your .pkg;
9) Enjoy.

@XVortex I noticed your new tool changes the VERSION in param.sfo and not APP_VER which would show the update on the information screen of PS4 when building packages that include game updates.

I couldn't seem to get the pkg to build when editing APP_VER last week when playing around with bundling updates, but I could edit VERSION. Did you have the same problem?

Is that why you chose to change VERSION and not APP_VER? Thanks for all the work you've put into this, much appreciated.
 
Finally got fallout 4 to work. 3rd time is the charm. Was worried cause it took 22 mins to dump another 20 to build. Now all games I tried are working. Now for gta5 lol.

Anyword on flatz SFO editing?
 
@Lush78 it is because all full packages (except patches and remasters) must have v01.00 - is is 5ony rules.
Thank you for the quick response. I assumed it was something like that... I'm glad I didn't waste any more time trying to get that working.

Very cool that your dumper will read the app_ver from the update param.sfo and apply it to version of base sfo on the fly. Keep up the great work!
 
I dumped mine last night but couldn't tell you how long exactly since I kinda fell asleep, but it did take a while... Did you update yours to 1.81?

It did work though, including update...
