Installing PSM runtime

When running a game for the first time, it will ask to install psm runtime. In order to download and install it, you need to change your DNS to Henkaku Update Server

Installation

Download the latest nopsmdrm.skprx, copy it to ux0:tai and modify the ux0:tai/config.txt file to add the path to the module under *KERNEL as follows

*KERNEL
ux0:tai/nopsmdrm.skprx

If you know what you are doing, you may change this path to an arbitrary location as long as it matches the exact location of the module. You may also edit the ur0:tai/config.txt instead assuming you do not have a config.txt file inside the ux0:tai/ folder

Creating the fake license

In order to generate a fake license file containing the application's keys, you must first launch the application with the NoPsmDrm plugin enabled.
The fake licenses for the applications will then be stored at

  • ux0:data/EM0041-NPOA00013_00-0000000000000000.rif using content id as filename

Sharing PSM Games

  • If you wish to use the application on the same device but on a different account, simply copy the fake license ux0:data/EM0041-NPOA00013_00-0000000000000000.rif to ux0:psm/NPOA00013/RO/License/FAKE.rif.
  • If you wish to use the application on a different device, transfer the content of ux0:psm/TITLE_ID to your PC and copy the fake license ux0:data/EM0041-NPOA00013_00-0000000000000000.rif file as ux0:psm/TITLE_ID/RO/License/FAKE.rif You need to update / rebuild database

If the game is "Powered by Unity" then you must ALSO create a folder in ux0:/license/app/PSM_TITLE_ID and place the 6488b73b912a753a492e2714e9b38bc7.rif included in this repo into that folder.

Installing shared games
