It's been three hours and it still is not finished. If I hover my cursor over the aemulus menu it just shows the "working" scroll. Is this normal?

crimson onyx May 15, 2023, 9:30 PM

#

can you go into your aemulus directory and check the original > persona 4 golden (vita) folder and see if anything is in there?

#

i mentioned it depends on hdd speed and other things

sturdy stump May 15, 2023, 10:07 PM

#

crimson onyx can you go into your aemulus directory and check the original > persona 4 golden...

there was a data.cpk file

crimson onyx May 15, 2023, 10:12 PM

#

oh so it must be taking super long

#

did you restart your computer after installing the prerequisites?

sturdy stump May 15, 2023, 10:12 PM

#

oh no, i think i should

crimson onyx May 15, 2023, 10:13 PM

#

yeah probably lol

sturdy stump May 15, 2023, 10:17 PM

#

crimson onyx yeah probably lol

Restarted my PC, gonna let it extract now

crimson onyx May 15, 2023, 10:18 PM

#

alright

sturdy stump May 15, 2023, 10:18 PM

#

I assume it'll pop up a message once it's done?

crimson onyx May 15, 2023, 10:21 PM

#

yeah

#

and double check the folder again and see if anything is going inside

#

you should also open up task manager and check if it’s using your disk at all

sturdy stump May 15, 2023, 10:50 PM

#

crimson onyx you should also open up task manager and check if it’s using your disk at all

Nah, ain't touching the disk

#

What could be the cause of that?

crimson onyx May 15, 2023, 10:50 PM

#

maybe it doesn’t have permissions?

#

where is your aemulus install directory?

#

is it in your downloads folder?

#

or on your desktop?

sturdy stump May 15, 2023, 10:51 PM

#

I didn't install it as a program, I just open the exe

crimson onyx May 15, 2023, 10:51 PM

#

yeah not where it’s installed

#

where is the extracted folder containing the exe

sturdy stump May 15, 2023, 10:51 PM

#

Oh it's on my D drive

crimson onyx May 15, 2023, 10:51 PM

#

oh weird

#

hm

sturdy stump May 15, 2023, 10:51 PM

#

Yeah the C drive is the main drive

crimson onyx May 15, 2023, 10:51 PM

#

yeah i’m really not sure then

#

@sharp sand any ideas?

#

they’re the creator of aemulus

sturdy stump May 15, 2023, 10:52 PM

#

Ah ok

#

Ran aemulus as admin to maybe get it to read my disc, but nothing

#

@crimson onyx it'll do 0.1mb/s on disc, but I assume it's supposed to do a whole lot more

sturdy stump May 15, 2023, 11:52 PM

#

@sharp sand I'm not sure what to do here.

I know it can see what's on my disc because it'll read my mods in the folder.

Is there a specific place I should put the data.cpk file?

crimson onyx May 16, 2023, 12:55 AM

#

wait a second

#

are you clicking the gear icon

#

and clicking unpack base files?

#

and then opening the data.cpk? @sturdy stump

sturdy stump May 16, 2023, 12:59 AM

#

Yep

#

Is that the wrong order?

#

@crimson onyx have I been doing it wrong the whole time?

crimson onyx May 16, 2023, 1:18 AM

#

yeah

#

you need to do that naosmiley

sturdy stump May 16, 2023, 1:34 AM

#

crimson onyx you need to do that <:naosmiley:1015095674917888092>

So gear>unpack>data.cpk?

#

That's the order I was doing

crimson onyx May 16, 2023, 1:52 AM

#

yeah

#

do that

#

and then let it finish

#

@sturdy stump

#

that’s what you were doing? and it didn’t work?

sturdy stump May 16, 2023, 1:53 AM

#

Yep

crimson onyx May 16, 2023, 1:53 AM

#

can you restart aemulus, try again, then send a pastebin of the log after a few minutes?

#

just ctrl + a then copy the log and paste it into pastebin

sturdy stump May 16, 2023, 1:54 AM

#

Gotcha

#

@crimson onyx the log never updates once I start extracting it

that’s strange

sturdy stump May 16, 2023, 1:57 AM

#

crimson onyx that’s strange

is it supposed to list out what it unpacks?

crimson onyx May 16, 2023, 1:58 AM

#

yeah

#

i believe so

sturdy stump May 16, 2023, 1:58 AM

#

Yeah so it's just not even accessing the data file like I theorized

crimson onyx May 16, 2023, 1:58 AM

#

that’s really really weird and i’m not sure what to do about that honestly

#

lemme get home and test what’s supposed to fully happen

sturdy stump May 16, 2023, 1:59 AM

#

Gotcha mate. I'll just be here playing some devil summoner

sturdy stump May 16, 2023, 3:05 AM

#

@crimson onyx lmk how the test goes and what I should do instead of what I am doing

crimson onyx May 16, 2023, 3:07 AM

#

yeah no it's supposed to immediately start outputting files

sturdy stump May 16, 2023, 3:25 AM

#

crimson onyx yeah no it's supposed to immediately start outputting files

Huh, so it just can't read my cpk?

crimson onyx May 16, 2023, 3:26 AM

#

potentially

#

i’m really not sure what else it could be besides it being run from your d drive

#

but i only have a single drive in my computer

sturdy stump May 16, 2023, 3:26 AM

#

It did the same on my c drive

sturdy stump May 16, 2023, 7:28 PM

#

@sharp sand so my aemulus is failing to build a mod.cpk. Heres a log of what's happening
