so purely outside of my skill issue its generally that easy of just triangle -> open decrypted -> paste contents somewhere -> make a vpk with folder ig

okay so i recently learned there is triangle on the app folder of the card to open decrypted then you can copy paste the folder

but given how i name them i have to go, name a folder after the card id, place all the other folders in it, create a folder called app, create a folder after id, paste in

ive been wondering why this drive keeps shutting off and turns out it just really does not like being laid down

this is so stupid

i was thinking my discs had issues or something but its been just constantly overheating

also cable is rigid and holds it steady well so no wobbling or anything

ds page displaying various info like icons titles rom size game id and more

i actually like to make scripts that parse my rom backups and display info gathered from them

i read all of this out directly from the rom (except for the boxart which comes from titledb)

i do this for most of these consoles

today i learned the xbox 360 just has an option to install games to the hard drive officially straight on the dashboard (of course you have to have the disc in to play these, but if you use something like aurora you can just play them without it)

pretty cool actually

01.03.2026 07:55 ๐Ÿ‘ 3 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

also today i learnt how to rip games and also that i was missing scripts for aurora from the person who did my console for me

abadavatar is such a cool exploit

i can boot up a console hit the dash and be sent to aurora or whatever else if i configure it right just by inserting a usb

i actually used this recently to take the parental controls off a 360

for emulators i suggested alternatives similar to what i did with the original minecraft launcher one where i had a download for the new launcher

and if you try to download it itll just go back to the menu and say to use alternative

citra -> azahar
yuzu -> eden
old minecraft launcher -> new one

also i added sunset messages to various launchers so if one day someone goes "i want skype" or "i want citra" it will say something about the fact that its dead

i feel the name is self explanatory

portable everything

but yes thats what it does

most everyone only ever uses it for steam usually and nothing else tbh

mostly for library/school computers

which is about the original reason i used it
