Sonic-Nexus-Decompilation Vita help testing

[Starry_Night]

Hello everyone, I found this decompilation of Sonic Nexus for the PS Vita by SnesFX. I've tried to follow the instructions from their github page https://github.com/SnesFX/Sonic-Nexus-Decompilation/releases, and SnesFX tried to help me on Discord to install the game onto my Vita. But I couldn't get it to work. The game would load pass the Retro Sonic Engine splash screen and than it just crashes every time. Here's my crash log if anyone needs to look at it. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong, or it doesn't work on real hardware yet. Maybe someone on here would get this to work on their Vita, and can point me in the right direction on how to install it.

"The long awaited v2 of the port. After some trial and error I finally got the game to work normally. I sadly couldn't test this on my vita since I don't have it on me as of right now but it should work."
The sentence "it should work" just throw me off. I thought maybe I was setting it up wrong. Thanks for the reply.

Well, I've tested it on vita as well, and it crashes just as bad. I think it needs more patching

Heyo Creator of the port here, I'm working on fixing it but as of now I recommend sticking with V1 of the port until I fully fix it.

Finally got data folder mode to work on the public release build. Still working on the fix tho. But here's how to get Data Folder Mode working:

Copy the "Data" folder from ux0:data\Nexus to ux0:app\RSDK00000

If you need to get the data folder just download RetroED, Open it, Press CTRL + Shift + U, Press Select Data file, When the file manager window shows to open the file, switch to RSDKv1 and open the Data.bin from Sonic Nexus. Then Extract the Data folder somewhere, and then copy the Data folder to ux0:app\RSDK00000

Then open your settings.ini that should be in "ux0:data\Nexus" change "DevMenu=false" to true

and boom it should work just don't load the intro screen when you get to the Retro Sonic Default Menu.

I got the game to work from following your above instructions. The sound and controls work.
