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.

@tooretoo42 i posted Heisenberg's dump for Battlefield Hardline

@deSSy2724 it's normal, your update needs to be bind to your base game to work, open your CUSAXXXXX-patch.gp4 and select the fpkg of your base game in Command->Project Setting->Patch->Application package->Select, clic OK and then start the build it will work now
 
[Error] Format of the project file is not valid. (element <scenarios_info> is missing)

help me plz i dumped BO3 2 times after GENGP42 then load in fakepkg gave this error. thanx in advance,.....
 
Hi guys,

For testing purpose, i'm trying to repack an existing fpkg to separate base and update. Unfortunately xvortex dumper v1.6 crash the console when processing patch.

Finally i have the two directories with an empty one (cusaxxxxx-patch). The first directory (cusaxxxxx-app) still includes patch stuff like "patch.psarc" file.

I tested repack with non merged updates with splitting and it works well. I tested repack with merged updates without splitting and it works well.

Is it possible to repack an existing merged fpkg in a non merged fpkg ? if yes how to do that ?

Thanks in advance :)
 
I answer to myself ;)

I took time to compare throught ftp a dump including updates and another with splitting updates. I understand now why we don't have all informations about updates in the game options (only historical) and why it's a problem to repack.

Updates are not only merged in one fpkg. They are totally merged with base. That does not seem to be clean because system use dedicated directories to identify base "cusaxxxxx-app0" and patch "cusaxxxxx-patch0" ... and merged them in "cusaxxxxx-app0-patch0-union". When installing a new update, system write on the old one to save space and allow differential update (DP).

@XVortex I hope i has been clear and i think that splitting option should be by default in ps4 dumper payload (option which can be supersede by dumper.cfg)

@mschumacher69 Unfortunately it's not possible to retrieve a clean base for the reasons described above :(
