 This method involves creating a dump of the cart after the block-level encryption has been "removed" and unique data stripped from the file. It also involves creating a generic (aka "fake") licence file for the cart. This method involves creating a dump of the cart after the block-level encryption has been "removed" and unique data stripped from the file.

-Technical Note: There are some game cards that have a writeable partition called "grw0". PSVGameSD can probably dump that partition fine (todo: confirm this), but it cannot mount dumps with that partition, so the only way to play these dumps is to convert them to NoNpDrm format first (todo: confirm this works). Also each time a cart is used, the partition data and therefore the dump will be different (as PSVStrip does not have support for stripping/emptying this partition).+Technical Note: There are some game cards that have a writeable partition called "grw0".

-To be able to compare your dump to other dumps for verification purposes you have to remove the license information using PSVStrip:+To be able to compare your dump to other dumps for verification purposes you have to remove the license information using [[https://github.com/Kippykip/PSVStrip|PSVStrip]] (or alternatively for Linux/Mac, this docker image: [[https://github.com/jonasrosland/psvstrip-docker/|GitHub]], [[https://hub.docker.com/r/jonasrosland/psvstrip-docker|Docker]]):
 <code>PSVStrip.exe -psvstrip source.psv destination.psv</code> <code>PSVStrip.exe -psvstrip source.psv destination.psv</code>
