PS Vita ARK 3.60 Auto Boot pboot

Launch PSP Games & Homebrew from LiveArea by qwikrazor87

Following the recent work from vita developer qwikrazor87 who has done some great work with ARK has now released "ARK 3.60 Auto Boot pboot", this release makes launching your PSP Games and brew much easier, from the convenience of the LiveArea. You will have edit your own packages so hopefully we see some other developer's create some tools to automate this process a bit, but its not very hard either. Checkout the release quote from the developer:

ARK 3.60 Auto Boot pboot

Here is a modded ARK pboot bubble to auto boot into whatever game or homebrew you want from Live Area.

Copy PBOOT.PBP and SAVEPATH.TXT to base game folder,
which should be located in ms0:/PSP/GAME/ (that's ux0:pspemu/PSP/GAME/).
Then use CMA / QCMA to backup the base game to your PC,
Then restore the game back to your PS Vita / PlayStation TV.

You should now see the base game with an ARK icon, or to whatever icon you have changed in PBOOT.PBP you can also update the title for PBOOT.PBP.

For each game you want to auto boot, you will need to use a different name for the savedata folder, so you will need to update the path in SAVEPATH.TXT to point to the savedata folder.

For example:

    ms0:/PSP/SAVEDATA/THIS_GAME_SAVE_FOLDER/ARK.BIN OR
    ms0:/PSP/SAVEDATA/THAT_HOMEBREW_SAVE_FOLDER/ARK.BIN

Included save, ARK_01234, has a file called BOOTPATH.TXT, there you can store the path of the game that you want to auto boot.

Here is an example path for an ISO (or CSO):

    ms0:/ISO/THE_MOST_AWESOME_GAME_IN_THE_WORLD.cso

Or for homebrew (or PS1 game, without sound):

    ms0:/PSP/GAME/SOME_AWESOME_HOMEBREW/EBOOT.PBP

it doesn't matter where the game or homebrew is located, as long as you have the correct paths, it'll launch.

To boot back in the ProShell menu,

    Hold L trigger + R trigger + Down + Cross, and keep R trigger held.

Do NOT use ux0: path in these files, only use ms0:
