== Setup Instructions ==
Installing the required plugins:
In order to properly install the game, you'll have to follow these steps precisely:
*Install kubridge and FdFix by copying kubridge.skprx and fd_fix.skprx to your taiHEN plugins folder (usually ux0:tai) and adding two entries to your config.txt under *KERNEL:
 
  *KERNEL
* Install [https://github.com/TheOfficialFloW/kubridge/releases/ kubridge] and [https://github.com/TheOfficialFloW/FdFix/releases/ FdFix] by copying <code>kubridge.skprx</code> and <code>fd_fix.skprx</code> to your taiHEN plugins folder (usually <code>ux0:tai</code>) and adding two entries to your <code>config.txt</code> under <code>*KERNEL</code>:
 
<pre class="notranslate">  *KERNEL
   ux0:tai/kubridge.skprx
   ux0:tai/kubridge.skprx
   ux0:tai/fd_fix.skprx</pre>
   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].


'''Note''' Don't install fd_fix.skprx if you're using repatch plugin
Adding the game data files:
*Obtain your copy of Final Fantasy 3 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.FFIII_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/ff3 and rename it to main.obb
*Open the apk and extract libff3.so from the lib/armeabi-v7a folder to ux0:data/ff3.
*Install FF3.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/ff3 named as opening.mp4.


* '''Optional''': Install [https://github.com/Electry/PSVshell/releases PSVshell] to overclock your device to 500Mhz.
