I was asked in another thread for a tutorial on dumping PS4 games. Mods are welcome to pin this if they feel it will help establish a standard and for those new to the process...

Here is my method of dumping games...

1. Obtain disc (or use your legit PSN install) and install on PS4 (wait for it to complete install, you will hear the disc stop spinning)

2. Find the latest retail update that works on current exploit (5.05 as of this writing)

This step requires a little work. PS4 5.05 OFW was released on March 8, 2018, so any update before that date will work. Google is your friend here. Here are a couple of links for retail updates:

3. Run HEN payload and install the retail update pkg with package installer in debug settings

4. Reboot and start Dumper payload (make sure that you are using split=3 option in the dumper.cfg on the root of USB drive)

5. Start game and get to title screen

6. Press PS button and wait in system OS for dumping to complete and PS4 to shut down

7. Move dumped files over to PC

8. Open CUSAXXXXX-app and CUSAXXXXX-patch folders with gengp4 and build/save gp4 files

9. Open each gp4 file with orbis-pub-gen from Fake Package Tools and build fpkg files

10. Run HEN payload and install fpkg base game and separate patch on PS4 with package installer in debug settings.

11. Enjoy!

@Joekerr yes, extract with punchline, dummy out or delete (if toc allows it) the other language files and rebuild with pubgen.
 
Thanks for your advice. It worked. Played for a few hours no crashes. I zero byted the following files before using GenGP4 on it, and it's reduced the pkg size by 14GB
Speech files - 9.10 GB
Code:
\build\ps4\main\sound1\streams\speech\french-mp.psarc
\build\ps4\main\sound1\streams\speech\french-sp.psarc
\build\ps4\main\sound1\streams\speech\german-mp.psarc
\build\ps4\main\sound1\streams\speech\german-sp.psarc
\build\ps4\main\sound1\streams\speech\italian-mp.psarc
\build\ps4\main\sound1\streams\speech\italian-sp.psarc
\build\ps4\main\sound1\streams\speech\portuguese-mp.psarc
\build\ps4\main\sound1\streams\speech\portuguese-sp.psarc
\build\ps4\main\sound1\streams\speech\spanish-mp.psarc
\build\ps4\main\sound1\streams\speech\spanish-sp.psarc
I think these are Multi Player files 4.9GB
Code:
\build\ps4\main\mp-common.psarc
\build\ps4\main\mp-levels.psarc
 
Do I have to install first the update of the game ? or install the game disk then the update ?? also when I try this method on fifa 18 my ps4 shows start extracting img app and another pop up message then it just reboot and it takes few minutes to boot and sometimes it just turn off. Any tips ??
 
Put your disk in the console first then let it install. Then run hen and go to debug settings install your update make sure it's for 5.05.

Then insert a USB big enough for the game and update with the dumper.cfg into the ps4 USB.

Then run dumper next start the game let it get to the main menu then press the PS button and wait for the console to shut off.
 
So if I use pkg extractor on a psn game I have from when I had a plus account is there any way to turn that pkg to an fpkg?
