{{#seo: |title=Vita Homebrew Games (Role playing) - GameBrew |title_mode=append |image=ff4vita2.png |image_alt=Final Fantasy 4 Vita }} This is a wrapper/port of Final Fantasy 4 Android for the PS Vita. The port works by loading the official Android ARMv7 executable in memory, resolving its imports with native functions and patching it in order to properly run. By doing so, it's basically as if we emulate a minimalist Android environment in which we run natively the executable as is. ==Installation== Requirements: * libshacccg.suprx * kubridge.skprx * fd_fix.skprx OR repatch_ex.skprx * Game Data Files: [https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.square_enix.android_googleplay.FFIV_GP Android] Installing the required plugins: *Install [[Kubridge Vita|kubridge]] and [[FdFix Vita|FdFix]] by copying kubridge.skprx and fd_fix.skprx to your taiHEN plugins folder and adding two entries to your config.txt under *KERNEL (change accordingly if you are using ur0:tai): *KERNEL ux0:tai/kubridge.skprx ux0:tai/fd_fix.skprx *Note, don't install fd_fix.skprx if you're using repatch plugin. *(Optional) Install [[PSVshell Vita|PSVshell]] to overclock your device to 500Mhz. *Install libshacccg.suprx, if you don't have it already, by following [https://samilops2.gitbook.io/vita-troubleshooting-guide/shader-compiler/extract-libshacccg.suprx this guide]. Adding the game data files: *Obtain your copy of Final Fantasy 4 legally from the Google Play store in form of an .apk file and one or more .obb files (usually located inside the /sdcard/android/obb/com.square_enix.android_googleplay.FFIV_GP/) folder. [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11012976/how-do-i-get-the-apk-of-an-installed-app-without-root-access You can get all the required files directly from your phone] or by using an apk extractor you can find in the play store. The apk can be extracted with whatever Zip extractor you prefer (eg: WinZip, WinRar, etc...) since apk is basically a zip file. You can rename .apk to .zip to open them with your default zip extractor. *Copy the .obb file to ux0:data/ff4 and rename it to main.obb. *Open the apk and extract libff4.so from the lib/armeabi-v7a folder to ux0:data/ff4. *Install FF4.vpk on your PS Vita. Optional (Opening Video Playback): *Extract from the apk, the file res/raw/opening.mp4 and convert it to 1280x720. *(ffmpeg can be used for this task with the command ffmpeg -i opening.mp4 -vf scale=1280x720 output.mp4). *Once converted, copy it to ux0:data/ff4 named as opening.mp4. ==Screenshots== https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/vitahomebrews/ff4vita3.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/vitahomebrews/ff4vita4.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/vitahomebrews/ff4vita5.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/vitahomebrews/ff4vita6.png ==Changelog== '''v1.3''' * Updated to latest vitaGL commit. * Updated to latest so loader revision. * Made game patches version agnostic (potential more recent game updates support). * Added CRT PostFX effect. * Added trophies support.
