A PS Vita plugin to read a txt file walkthrough while playing a game.

This is part of the KyûHEN Homebrew Contest.

Installation

This plugin needs ioPlus by CelesteBlue.

Download walk and put the .suprx file in ux0(ur0):tai/ and it to your ux0(ur0):tai/config.txt.

Add it to *ALL to enable it for all games, or add a section for the titleid of the game/app you're interested in (change to ur0 if you store the plugin there)

*KERNEL
ux0:tai/ioplus.skprx
...
*ALL
ux0:tai/walk.suprx

Transfer your txt into the directory ux0:data/walk/TITLEID/ with the filename as walk.txt.

So the full path will be: ux0:data/walk/TITLEID/walk.txt.

You can find the title id at the gamefaqs' data page, like this one.

User guide

Please note that the viewer doesn't pause the game, it's still running behind it.

Some lines maybe cut-off and you may need to use Left and Right to go to the next page.

Tricks

Getting a FAQ from gamefaqs.com

• Find a gamefaqs walkthrough you want like this one.
• Open the Javascript Console.
• Use this JavaScript code to get a txt file, which you can rename and put onto your vita.

(function() {
let file = new Blob([$(".faqtext").text()], {type: "application/text"});
let a = document.createElement("a"),
url = URL.createObjectURL(file);
a.href = url;
a.download = window.document.title + ".txt";
document.body.appendChild(a);
a.click();
})()
