Maybe the PS Vita files are encrypted (how to decript them, though!)? Or the script should be modified? If someone could give me a hand...

I see, for some reasons I didn't think to use that. Well, I hope it works! Thanks for your reply.

Ok, I have been able to decrypt the files but I managed to extract only 4 files from the archive, then I got this error (see the attached image).
Any idea?

Can I post the link here?
Well, I guess as long it's only the linkdata.idx...

Can you upload also the first 10 megabytes of the bin file?
I have found what's the problem but I need some additional detail

There is something weird in this archive like an additional series of 16 bytes of zeroes in the compressed files, that can be easily bypassed but then one file gave problem anyway.
Long story short there is no solution, I only updated the script with a work-around for the 16 zeroes and it will terminate due to that other senseless problem.

I see, well thanks anyway for your time, I guess Koei-Tecmo doesn't want people to hack their games...

It's a shame, because using one tool I found in this forum I was able to find out that there's some english text in the japanese version (which is the only available for the PS Vita) of the game, so I thought maybe It was possible to have a translated version easily.

Nice, the script now works fine, only it asks if you want to overwrite some files towards the end, and there are a lot of "*.unknown" files...I guess it can't be helped.
