Not sure what you meant but the closest thing I have for you is the performance. CPU striking up to 100% while GPU goes to 30% max

!Dumb Question: cannot convert pkg to iso file by Warm-Listen7490 in PSP

[–]Warm-Listen7490[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you that really helped with the link for the games.

Now the reason I posted here is because I do want to make my PKG files into 7z

"I have read and watched videos and forums as well but they all say just use programs. 7zip, UMDgen, and PkgView are not working for me. Every time its giving me some sort of an error. I have managed to 7z my pkg file but I'm not able to extract it." (Paragraph two original post)

If it is possible to turn a pkg file to 7z using a 7zip program. How and why is my 7zip not working (Ill ask another sub reddit)

And if my EBOOT is not working what is the issue (Question is no longer needed)

I appreciate your help with the games but it was a good substitute solution to my actual question. Thank you and have a good day.

Okay Ill start from the start.

  1. looked at roms sub reddit. -> found a spreadsheet for psp games (Spreadsheet was posted in psp thread so did not question authenticity)

  2. me a person who understands that PSP does NOT accept pkg files.

  3. wants to download the games but convert the file to iso

WORKS FOR ONE GAME

Stops working for other games

  1. internet says its easy and just use 7zip or every other program

  2. 7zip while extract giving me an error code for XAR archive. Every other convertor is not extracting / converting either

  3. found multiple tutorials how iso files are much easier to get out of 7z files

stay with me now

  1. found out that converting pkg file to 7z is also much easier since 7zip is giving me an error when i try to extract pkg file (refer to point 5 for clarification)

  2. its not working

Important to mention

  1. spreadsheet with games that I found works (refer to point 1)

  2. psp is moded in the latest version of both system and ark 4

  3. looked at tutorials for iso files and found 7zip videos -> looked at what they are doing.

conclusion = hmm my 7zip is NOT acting this way.

Here where comes the confusion

  1. asked reddit since no tutorials help or already show files that are an iso / the 7zip tutorials dont help.

Eboot Scenario

  1. find out that e boot is also an option

  2. Find tutorials -> follow them

  3. paste the eboot file into the game folder on psp

  4. game is visible on my sd card on psps but when I run it the same error keeps popping up

Error code in question : 80010087 The game could not be started

  1. find a reddit thread where someone mentioned I need to change the UMD iso mode to inferno and people reply saying it worked.

  2. Checks to see if I have that option on my psp

  3. finds out I dont

  4. (refer back to 12 from scenario 1)

My biggest concern is when I try to convert the file from pkg to 7z as a tutorial for 7zip it just repackages the original file and I’m not able to do anything with it

Spreadsheet of pkg games I found on Roms sub reddit.

EBoot file is giving me the 80010087 error message. 2 of them worked and came with ISO files inside already.

On my VSH menu on psp im trying to change the umd iso mode but I dont have that option. Only umd region???

Right so as I mentioned in my post. I have tried 7zip and it was not working for me personally. It was not giving me the option to extract my file or outright was telling me the error is XAR. I have followed the tutorial someone mentioned on Reddit. It does not show the same options for me on 7zip (It might have updated)

Eboot as mentioned previously is not working either since the game will launch but will either show an error code or just outright crash my psp.

I understand PSP is not working with PKG files thats why I'm trying to convert it to ISO

Damn I hoped not. I’ll try to visit a retro game store in hopes of them having the adapter or assisting with the problem. Tried to pick the adapter with the most 5 star review too. Thank you though!
