For those who remember PS2, PSP and PS3 RipKits this may interest you as well... today @RiPPERD has made available a PS4 RiPKiT / Modding / Cheat / Backport Tool for PlayStation 4 games in order to reduce their size by removing things like language or video files from them that aren't required in order to play through in most cases.
Download: PS4_RipKit-Mod-Cheat-BackPort_Tool_V2.2_By_RiPPERD_0.rar (4.52 MB) / PS4_RipKit-Mod-Cheat-BackPort_Tool_V2.2_By_RiPPERD-RT.rar (106.26 MB) / PS4_RipKit-Mod-Cheat-BackPort_Tool_V2.1_By_RiPPERD.rar (4.51 MB - NO RUNTIME INCLUDED .net and python) / PS4_RipKit-Mod-Cheat-BackPort_Tool_V2.1_By_RiPPERD_RT.rar (106.25 MB - RUNTIME FILES INCLUDED TOO .net and python) / BackPort.rar (54.61 KB - MINOR UPDATE FILE FOR 2.1 ONLY - ADDED OTHER PRX FILES THAT WERE MISSING - DOWNLOAD THIS AND REPLACE THE ONE IN MY APP FOLDER)
To quote from RiPPERD: PS4 RiPKiT/Modding/Cheat/BackPort Tool By RiPPERD
Usages of this tool:
The main reason for this tool is to make RipKits (smaller game files with things riped out) this is usually language files, videos etc. However another use is users that dont know how to modify games, add cheats/mod menus, files etc now can... so with the devs/modders posting their patch files made by this tool you will be able to just click a buttom and enjoy modded games... This could be Loads of ammo... Infinite Health... Debug menus etc via either modded eboot.bin file or modded game files.
PLEASE NOTE: Compressing/Making patch file may take a long time depending on your specs! The app CANNOT crash so just wait! Decompressing/Applying patch will be a LOT faster than making the patches! Again the app CANNOT crash!
V2.2 UPDATE
Backporting games:
Its an AIO patcher to release a patch file instead of users downloading whole games again. Back in the PSP and PS3 days this is how RipKits were made... ive made it slightly different now due to windows 10 and other requirements that only work on older versions.
Basic tutorial
FOR DEVS (Devs are needed to make the patches)
UPDATE INFORMATION
V2.2

Basic tutorial
FOR DEVS (Devs are needed to make the patches)
- Download my app
- Place the game PKG file into the directory of this app and rename it to original.pkg
- make a copy of the game in same folder and rename it to ripped.pkg
- open up the modded pkg game file with other ps4 tools
- make any changes to the game (remove languages, add cheats etc)
- repack the ripped pkg file with your usual tools
- now run the tool with both files in same folder
- click MAKE PATCH
- wait... may take while on larger games
- you will now have a "patch.RiPPERD" file and a "ripped.gp4" file, these are the files you share with others. These files are now much smaller than previous versions.
- Download my app and the required "patch.RiPPERD" and "ripped.gp4" file for your game
- Place game PKG file, "patch.RiPPERD" and "ripped.gp4" into my app folder
- rename game pkg to "original.pkg"
- now run the tool with both files in same folder
- click APPLY PATCH
- wait... may take while on larger games
