PKG MUTANT SHOP 3.99.4

on GitHub

Settings has been rebuilt so every section fits on one screen, the app now speaks twenty-five
languages, sending files from your phone reads each file and puts it exactly where it belongs on
the console, updates the app can see are offered as updates, PS4Mount comes to the PS4, and a
console on its own opens its library faster.

The full list, with the technical detail behind each change, is in the
changelog.

Added

Settings, rebuilt

• Nine sections, each on one screen. Your consoles, Your games, Installing, Power & helpers,
  Cheats & mods, Devices & sources, Language, Troubleshooting and About. On a PC or a TV nothing in
  Settings scrolls: your PS5 and PS4 sit side by side, status is a quick grid, each section's buttons
  are in its heading, and the explanation of whatever you point at or select with the controller
  appears in one line at the bottom. On a phone the list of sections is the first page and each
  section opens as its own page.
• Every setting saves itself the moment you change it - there is no Save button any more - and
  a console's address is checked before it is kept.
• Troubleshooting has the connection check and the install log as two tabs in one place, and a
  long check shows its problems first.

Languages

• Ten new languages: Traditional Chinese, Ukrainian, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Thai, Czech,
  Hungarian, Greek, Romanian and Swedish - twenty-five in all. Russian was already there; it has
  been reviewed from top to bottom and more than 200 strings were improved.
• The app opens in your device's language when it is one of these, and a language only loads when
  you pick it, so the page itself is half the size it was.

Sending from your phone

• Every file is read before it is sent. A package says which game it is, which console it is
  for, whether it is the game, an update or DLC, and which version. So a PS5 package is never sent to
  a PS4, an update whose game is not on that console is stopped before it uses your Wi-Fi, a game
  already installed at that version is skipped, and a package that was cut short is caught.
• Everything lands where it belongs: packages are installed one at a time, base game first; PS5
  backups go to the drive their backup service watches; payloads go into Payload Manager on a PS5
  or the payload folder on a PS4; cheat files go into the console's cheat inbox; a homebrew app's
  .zip is unpacked by the PS5 itself; and game files for an emulator go to that emulator's folder
  when it is installed. You can pick a whole folder too.
• The console is asked first whether it has the room and the drive, and a transfer that breaks
  carries on from where it stopped instead of starting again.

Payloads & Homebrews

• PS4Mount for the PS4 (Vld439/PS4Mount-PS4): play PS4 game packages from a USB drive or the
  console's own storage without installing them. Download it and send it from the PS4 tab.

Fixed

• Updates are offered as updates. Projects that used to say "open its page" - PSFlyCast, Vita3K,
  PS4SX2, Resonance and others - now offer the new release itself. The app compares against the
  version each console actually runs, and when it cannot be sure it still offers the release as
  Update to … instead of hiding it. Waiting updates that were never shown, such as Resonance
  v01.41, PSFlyCast v1.3.0, OnionHEN's final release, PS4Mount 0.6.1 on the PS5 and Y2JB v1.0.3, now
  appear.
• The library no longer flickers while you scroll on a phone.
• The library on a console with no PC opens faster: it shows the last list at once and refreshes
  it in the background, and covers load as small thumbnails.
• Saving a setting from a console's own page can no longer remove the PS4 from the PC's
  settings, and the number of installs at once applies straight away.
• Some dialogs in Russian, Chinese, Hindi, Italian, Korean, Turkish, Polish and Dutch showed \n
  and \" instead of a line break and a quote mark.
• A payload updated through the Windows app keeps its version, so its next update is offered.
• Sending files is safer: a broken and resumed transfer can no longer damage the finished file,
  and the consoles are much stricter about which pages may send them files or ask them for data.
• The game panel's ⋯ menu shows proper icons on the PS4.

Tested on

• PS5 13.60 and PS4 13.52, with a PC running the app and with each console on its own.
• Settings at every screen size from 1280x720 up, in all twenty-five languages; phones from 320px
  wide up, in portrait and landscape.

Download

Update the Windows app first, then load the new .elf on your consoles — an older Windows app
loads its own, older PS4 build back whenever the PS4's shop restarts.
