PKG successfully installs but game doesn't show up on game list? - brixe - 02-07-2018
As the title says I downloaded Ni no Kuni pkg and it pops up with "success! successfully installed software from package!", however, the game does not show up in the games list? I have put the rap file in dev_hdd0/home/00000001/exdata and here is the log.
RPCS3 v0.0.4-6396-5b5f2d424 Alpha | HEAD
Intel® Core™ i5-3470 CPU @ 3.20GHz | 4 Threads | 3.95 GiB RAM | AVX
S Successfully installed PS3 firmware version 4.82.
S {PKG Installer} LDR: Package successfully installed to C:/Users/owner/Desktop/rpcs3-v0.0.4-2018-02-06-5b5f2d42_win64/dev_hdd0/game/NPEB01158/
S Successfully installed fAwycMHfiDUZNXCPniJGPKfWRhiVNsKXbaSJQBkfPkRoorneSGwvsscdSaAWrDaq.pkg.
If you could help, that would be great thanks!

I never used this method, but maybe after extracting the PKG you have to do this in the RPCS3 program:
*Left up corner* File -> Boot SELF/ELF then in the explorer go to the GAME FOLDER (Desktop/rpcs3-v0.0.4-2018-02-06-5b5f2d42_win64/dev_hdd0/game/NPEB01158/) -> PS3_GAME -> USRDIR and select EBOOT.BIN.
In fact if you take a look into the Quickstart webpage (Which you should do) you'll find this:
Blu-ray disc title data can be placed in \dev_hdd0\disc\ or anywhere else except for \dev_hdd0\game\ and can be booted from File > Boot Game if not present on the game list.
To boot from the Boot Game option just select the game folder *NPEB01158 in this case* and the game will boot AND appear on your list.

There is no EBOOT.BIN or any BIN file in the game folder NPEB01158, maybe that's an issue? Also I have already tried to File > Boot Game but this appears in the log, E PS3 executable not found in selected folder (C:/Users/owner/Desktop/rpcs3-v0.0.4-2018-02-06-5b5f2d42_win64/dev_hdd0/game/NPEB01158)
Thank you for your reply though!

Yeah, if there's no EBOOT, you installed the wrong package or something
RE: PKG successfully installs but game doesn't show up on game list? - M1hai - 02-11-2018
Also EBOOT.bin is not on the Game folder, but in the Game folder's subdirectory PS3_GAME -> USRDIR.
In your case it is in Desktop/rpcs3-v0.0.4-2018-02-06-5b5f2d42_win64/dev_hdd0/game/NPEB01158/PS3_GAME/USRDIR/EBOOT.bin
If you can't find it there then I suppose it is what Ani said. If you can't manage to unpack it you can always download it.. as long as you have it also original I think that's okay and could be considered a backup(?)

There is no PS3_GAME folder in digital games.
