Since I didn't see anyone else doing it, I figured I would take a crack at it to see what it would take to make it happen. As it turns out, it was not difficult to do at all! All it took was converting the voice clips and repacking some files within **scena.pkg** and **text.pkg**. A lot of the files are still cross-compatible between versions, so the updated scena and tbl files could be used on the Vita. _Please note that even though the whole **data.psarc** file is included, the game WILL NOT play without access to the original **eboot.bin**! You must have one of the following to use this mod:_ * **A real game cartridge** * **The digital version from PSN** * **A backup copy** ## Installation Instructions * You MUST have a hacked PS Vita running some form of HENkaku. Visit https://vita.hacks.guide/ if you don't know how to hack your Vita. * The rePatch plugin is required: https://github.com/dots-tb/rePatch-reDux0/releases/ * Make sure you have at least 3 GB of free space per game on your memory card / SD card. * Copy the included **rePatch** folder inside the archive(s) to the root of your memory card. * Play! * **_OPTIONAL_**: If you have the games installed on your memory card, you can can delete their original **data.psarc** files to save space, since they are already in the rePatch folder. -- If you want to do this optional step, go into app\PCSE00786\ for Cold Steel I, and app\PCSE00896\ for Cold Steel II. This will save you almost 6 GB of redundant data between the two games! ## Potential FAQs * Will this mod work on the European versions? -- Yes, but you would need to rename the folders inside the **rePatch** folder to match the IDs of the European versions: **PCSB00866** (Cold Steel I) and **PCSB01016** (Cold Steel II). * Do the games need to be updated for this mod to work? -- This mod will work regardless of the game's current version. This is why there is a **patch** folder next to where the **data.psarc** is, so it can override certain files provided by the official patches. * Would this mod work on the PS3 versions? -- I think the same method would apply, but it would need to be repacked with the PS3 versions' assets. I don't have access to the PS3 versions' files, though; this mod was made using my personal copies of the Vita and PC versions. -- It's also possible the PS3 version uses a different format for its voice clips, so they would likely need to be converted again. * Are any of the redone/extended voice clips included in this mod? -- All voice clips were converted, so any of the original voice clips that were redone/extended for the PC version are like that in the mod too. ### PS If you were wondering why I didn't just include the updated scena.pkg, text.pkg and the individual voice clips instead of the entire data.psarc file, I actually did attempt it, but it did not have ideal results. Unless the voice files are packed into the data.psarc, all voice clips (even the old ones) will cause the game to stutter and have a delay when voices clips are played. To avoid this, I had no choice but to pack them into the data.psarc. If anyone knows of a better way, I'd love to hear it! This mod is dedicated to all fans of the Vita versions of Trails of Cold Steel I & II. I sincerely hope you enjoy this mod! Let's keep loving the Vita!
