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.

with disk

To create file .split in your root of usb without dot at the end of file , we have to create new text file and rename it with winrar (windows tell you a error) into .split (without extension)

i try gta v and i have two pkg 1 is app of 41gb and other is update of 12 gb (1.21)

tonight i test it...
 
@XVortex My coding is a little rusty, but instead of hanging at 100% for a while with the following two lines:
Code:
      if (pfs_copied > pfs_size) pfs_copied = pfs_size;
      sprintf(notify_buf, "%u%% completed...", pfs_copied * 100 / pfs_size);
how about something like this?
Code:
if (pfs_copied <= pfs_size)
    sprintf(notify_buf, "%u MB / %u%% copied", pfs_copied / 1000000, pfs_copied * 100 / pfs_size);
else
    sprintf(notify_buf, "Dumping Extra - %u MB", (pfs_copied - pfs_size) / 1000000);
it gives better real time info, and I so would love to see actual MB copied!
** Again, this is totally untested and probably has syntax errors.
 
There is no "extra" data. That was my mistake - wrong total size estimation. It should be fixed in 1.5

Also in the forthcoming 1.6 there will be a full text-based config file.
You can suggest settings that can be included in this config.
 
issue with 1.5
the game is running but says "waiting for game copy..." and doesn't Dump the game (with NO hdd blinking)
tested with watch dogs 1 and 2, same result
 
XVortex Ok the new dumper 1.5 doesn't dump the Witcher 3 GOTY for me ..
here what happens
1- when i enter the game it doesn't show anything unlike with Dues Ex it worked and even showed me the progress precentage
2- after that I tried to dump the wither 3 with Dumper 1.3 and it works falwlessly with no prombles and it did dump the game

- I have dumped almost 10 games (30GB and more games) with the dumper 1.3 with no issues

- maybe my copy of the dumper 1.5 is broken i'll try to redownload it and report

meanwhile did anyone have the same problem or just me
 
I made a dump to Mafia III after installing and update patch 1.04 using ps4-dumper v1.5 and gengp4 v1.7 and Freemium App in orbis-pub-gen and the game goes perfect including the saves. I mention that for the first time I used the Paid Standalone Full App setting and the game gave the error message to the saves. Thx you XVortex

I just thought my downlaoded file was broken

I confirm what iSCORPION said i have the same problem with the witcher 3 GOTY and I also noticed that Dues Ex Took 4 hours dumping with only 25% witch mean that i will need at least +12 hours to dump and i don't think it's correct
