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

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(?)
