2020 Updates Madden NFL 13 PS Vita/PSTV

Re: 2020 Updates Madden NFL 13 PS Vita/PSTV

@lorak I've decyrpted the files, rebuilt them with the patches and installed into the rePatch directory, but now when I attempt to open I'm getting "Insert a PS VIta card that contains this application" I'm using the Madden Game Card, is there anything else I should be trying?

You should have the next file structure in your memory card:

• Untouched files in ux0: app/PCSE00084
• Untouched files in ux0: patch/PCSE00084
• Rebuilt -patched- files in ux0: rePatch/PCSE00084. I mean, these 4 patched files, qkl_boot.ast, qkl_fe2ig.ast, qkl_ram.ast and qkl_patch.ast
• Of course you need repatch plugin installed in your device. My advice is to install it in ur0:tai adding also ur0:tai/repatch.skprx in the kernel section of ur0:tai/config.txt

Repatch plugin also works ok with game cards. Could you post a few pictures from the above folders to have a look at the file structure?

Thank you for your reply, I finally got it to work. Something with the live area upgrade must’ve been screwing things up, I’m not sure what I did incorrectly but removing that allow the game to fire up correctly. I do have the team names and locations changed correctly (LA Rams, Washington Football Team, etc) but I still don't see any updated uniforms. Did I do something incorrectly? I ran the .bat files on those 4 decyrpted files, was there another step I missed?

You need the files from the graphical patch to be able to actually patch your decrypted .ast files running those .bat files. Then place the patched files following the structure from my previous post.

Re: 2020 Updates Madden NFL 13 PS Vita/PSTV

is it possible to have the 4 files available for download?

qkl_boot.ast
qkl_fe2ig.ast
qkl_patch.ast
qkl_ram.ast

I have downloaded the files (I own the vita'13 cartridge) each year but it's the windows compiling doesn't work, so when I put it back on vita, the graphical update doesn't work.

Each year I have to be happy with just the roster update and LiveArea patch.

So I tried again, I downloaded with Mai dumper and repacked, again didn't really work out for me. Assuming a problem, I moved the files from RePatch to Patch and managed to get it to hang on a black screen.

Again, I think it's the repacking process which is the problem.
Could anyone share with their google drive the four .ast files so I can try those ?

thanks in advance.

As mentioned before, you only need to place all 4 repacked files inside ux0: rePatch/PCSE00084 and activate repatch plugin.

Starting today, I am going to share my repacked files with all of you for about 7-14 days. Sorry, I cannot share those .ast files for indefinitely time since they are to big. Update: Link removed. You need to repack the files yourself, it is not hard.

Just place all 4 .ast files in the proper location, do not forget to activate the repatch plugin in your hacked device if you never did it before. Again, this ONLY works in hacked devices -or in devices in OFW on or below 3.60- as we need to load the repatch plugin in our PSVita/PSTV systems.

Re: 2020 Updates Madden NFL 13 PS Vita/PSTV

it is mandatory to have all game files decrypted. At least you need the following game files decrypted: qkl_boot.ast, qkl_fe2ig.ast, qkl_patch.ast and qkl_ram.ast.

Can you explain a bit more how we decrypt and locate these files? You mention this is the first step so I assume these files are located on our PS Vita sd card. Please clarify as all other steps like LiveArea update and Roster update has pretty clear instructions. For some reason the decrypting portion of this mod has not been explained very clearly on any forums.

Thank you for putting in the work to do this! Can't wait to figure out how to install the graphics mod.

1. Read my previous post. In this case you are done, nothing else is needed.
2. One easy way to decrypt game files is via VitaShell. Read this post from last year's thread. Of course, assuming that you know what VitaShell is and it is already installed in your device.

When I move the .ast files over, they're invisible to Windows Explorer. If I compress them on the vita, I can decompress them and see them. Hidden files and folders are set up to be displayed. Why can't I see them? Any other tips to fix the issue?

As explained in above, in Vitashell go to ux0:app, highlight the folder PCSE00084, press triagle and select "Open decrypted" then copy all the decrypted files for example, to ux0:data to transfer it later to you computer via USB. That should work.

Do the same for the files in ux0: patch

Re: 2020 Updates Madden NFL 13 PS Vita/PSTV

So can anyone guide me on the roster and franchise files? The livearea and graphics patch are good to go. But when I put the roster into the save data, Madden can't find it when I go to load it. Any advice?

Re: 2020 Updates Madden NFL 13 PS Vita/PSTV

Disregard my last post I found the answer. Thanks for all the help!

Re: 2020 Updates Madden NFL 13 PS Vita/PSTV

Ok so I'm lost once again. I have a franchise file and a 2020 roster. I have the Vita save manager and I create a roster save file and name it after the roster I downloaded. Then back up the save. Then I go into that folder in uXo and replace the one I saved and backed up with the downloaded one. Then I restore from backup in save manager. When I launch the game, it says the file is corrupted. Did I mess up?

Check the folder where Vita Save Manager places decrypted game saves. By default it is in ux0: /data/savegames. You can change that location by editing the file ux0: data/savemgr/config.ini

Then, save a roster and a franchise with the same names as the files you get form this thread. Back it up with Vita Save Manager, replace the files inside that folder -for example, for this game ux0: /data/savegames/PCSE00084- with the files from this thread. Finally, launch Vita Save Manager to restore your files. That is all.
