PKG Merge PS4 Tool by Tustin, Join PlayStation 4 Package File Parts

Following some recent PS4 Package Research, today PlayStation 4 developer @Tustin made available PKG Merge which as the name implies aims to combine PlayStation 4 PKG file parts joining them into a whole PKG file with a compiled version by @0x199 via Twitter below.

Here are some details on the PS4 Package Merge tool from his recent Tweets via Twitter:

I made a tool that merges PS4 PKG parts into one whole pkg file in golang (@RedEyeX32 wanted this)

prob works for more than 1 part but i didnt test em yet

To quote from Tustin on NGU on the PKG Merge PS4 tool's origin:

"Well, by default when you download packages from Sony, they are already in 4gb parts.

That's why Red wanted the tool made I suppose."

did you have to install anything first ? or did you just download pkg-merge.exe and cmd pkg-merge ?

also were you get Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy pkg

Only download pkg-merge and join downloaded files

In this place bunch of pkg games: https://extreme-modding.de/PS4/database/games.html

There is also an alternative with psnstuff: psnstuff.zip

I uploaded a quite up to date DB-File for psnstuff: https://mega.nz/fm/ISQR0aKZ

It should add about the same PKGs as the ones available at extreme-modding

edit of my last posting ... found a more recent DB-File:

There is something to split pkg files into parts? How can i test a pkg of more than 4gb and install it using an HD connected over usb?

Self reply Just format the hard drive in exFAT format. There is not 4gb limitation and PS4 recognise it correctly.

To combine a pkg, I used Total Commander.

Before combine the pkg, better check sha1 (hashValue) each pkg, I used hashmyfile.

sha1 information can obtain inside json file.

download link:
UP4497-CUSA05725_00-00000000000GOTY5_0.pkg

change to:
UP4497-CUSA05725_00-00000000000GOTY5.json

Interesting tool, I guess will be pretty useful if/when we can re-sign the official Sony PKGs.

Right now the rips I have encountered were all just single-files.
