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!

@surjhat oh wow glad too see I’m not the only one. Makes me wonder how are any of the GoW fpkg files available. How the hell did they dump it?

I quit the first time and that causes a KP btw now I’m trying with a SSD and looks like I’m gonna get the same result. Was yours a disc or digital you were trying to dump? Mine's digital.
 
Hi everyone im wondering if someone can point me in the right direction im wanting to dump some apps and then take out the the psn sign in (basically turn them into nopsn apps) so i can share them with the community, thanks in advance.
 
I have been trying to convert the games I own to digital. For the most part this has been working alright, but I have found an issue. After dumping Killzone Shadow Fall, neither the base game nor the patch have a trophy file. Nor do I see an npbind.dat file. Did my dump somehow become corrupt?
 
App and Patch are being dumped to the root of the drive in separate folders. Was it because I was dumping a game that was installed on the external storage drive? I am going to try moving it to the internal drive and dumping it again.

On another note, the App Dumper/Dumper payload does not seem to read the dumper.cfg that I have on the root of the USB drive I am dumping to. It does not show progress nor does it shutdown the console after dumping. I am running 9.00 GoldHen 2.0B2.

When I dumped games installed on the internal drive though, they seem to dump just fine. They are all playable after installing.

Edit: For anyone that wanders in wondering why their packages are not dumping correctly/missing files: Make sure the game you are dumping is stored on the internal HDD of the PS4 and not on the external storage drive. For some reason it will not dump correctly if it is on the external. Moving the game in the Settings menu from external to internal is all you need to do to dump it.
 
Thanks have been looking for this for quite sometime. I have a guy here who actually creates pkg and install them on your console for a price, is there a way to get those installed games as a .pkg for later use? I will happy to share the pkg files once I have them. Cheers
