Version 4.20.64 Rev 4

on GitHub

• Rev 4: undo patch that would make popsloader fail.

Introducing FasterARK, a new PS Vita VPK installer that aims at making Standalone installations easier than ever.

Just copy the FasterARK.vpk file from PSVita/Standalone/ to your console and install it using VitaShell.

Run FasterARK and wait for the files to be installed. You will get an ARK bubble in Live Area inmediately after exiting the installer.

FasterARK uses a custom-made ARK bubble created with ChovySign, meaning the project is 100% open source and using community files as opposed to the closed source FastARK that contains a retail game ROM (not very legal, hence why it was never a part of this project).

Credits:

• @Acid_Snake for the idea to use a custom ChovySign bubble to load ARK instead of a retail game.
• @krazynez for his Proof of Concept build of FastARK that uses a custom-made ChovySign ARK loader.
• @SilicaAndPina for creating FasterARK (among other important tools such as ChovySign and NoPspEmuDrm).
