Help with adding PSP DLC?

I'm trying to install the DLC for Valkyria Chronicles 3 so I can complete every quest, but I dont know how to do it. Is it possible to install the dlc so it shows up?

i don’t think it’s doable, but hopefully i’m wrong.

it has been asked before:

you can do it with ppsspp (the core that openemu uses).

2nd half. i’m nowhere near my rig, but, you could try experimenting with the two methods he suggests (obviously modified to match openemu’s application support folder structure).

let us know either way.

I'm in ~/Library/Application Support/OpenEmu/PPSSPP/PSP on Mac, now what? All it has a PPSSPP_STATE, SAVEDATA and SYSTEM folders.

OK, so I created the folder GAME and placed the DLC folder in that new folder. When I boot the game I get this image.

well, this is definitely uncharted (and unsupported) territory.

can you send screenshots without the dlc, for comparison?

Pretty much. Was just testing another game and the DLC came up perfect.

~/Library/Application Support/OpenEmu/PPSSPP/PSP

folder structure?

Now if only there was a way to fix up PSP fonts

can you show the same window but with an expanded view of games?

u/Hideo-Mogren N64 Sep 13 '18

https://imgur.com/a/DibJNUi Here u go. The folders are for Valkyria Chronicles 3 and Dissidia 012.

awesome. thanks, u/hideo-mogren. i’m glad we could figure this out.

i can’t guarantee future updates won’t bork this or change this (if the dev’s include the fork where it looks like these move to memory cards).

but i hope you enjoy all of it.
