Using different GAME + patch dumps (Remarry dumps)

[TheRadziu]

If you've downloaded Game and Game update from two different sources (Base Game dumped by someone and Patch dumped by someone else, using his own copy of a game) you'll have to re-marry the two of them. This is because they both will have different digest. Otherwise, your Game Update installation will error out.

Tutorial found on other forums, all credit goes to Sashka. Reposting here due to many requests to do so. GTA V Update used as an example:

1) Create CUSA00419-patch folder
2) Extract all files and directories of UP1004-CUSA00419_00-GTAVDIGITALDOWNL-A0121-V0100.pkg with orbis-pub-chk in CUSA00419-patch folder (passcode is 00000000000000000000000000000000)
3) Delete UP1004-CUSA00419_00-GTAVDIGITALDOWNL-A0121-V0100.pkg
4) Move all the content in CUSA00419-patch/Sc0/ to CUSA00419-patch/Image0/sce_sys/
5) Delete Sc0 folder
6) Move playgo-chunk.dat from CUSA00419-patch/Image0/sce_sys/app/ to CUSA00419-patch/Image0/sce_sys/ and overwrite it
7) Delete app folder
8) Move all the content in CUSA00419-patch/Image0/ to CUSA00419-patch/
9) Delete Image0 folder
10) Create gp4 of CUSA00419-patch folder with gengp4 v1.7 and save it
11) Open CUSA00419-patch.gp4 with orbis-pub-gen, go to Command->Project Setting->Patch and look at Application package:
12a) If you see (Package Digest: XXXXXXXXXXX...), click OK
12b) If you see (Image is not valid), click Select, go to the folder where UP1004-CUSA00419_00-GTAVDIGITALDOWNL-A0100-V0100.pkg is and open it, click OK
13) Go to Command->Build Image->Select Output Path->Build
14) Done

Try it!

This still come in handy, having problem using Duxa tool, it couldn't recognize the Sc0 folder from the package and give an error
Using the latest version sometimes hangs as well

I have no issues at all with duxa tool. Steps 1-9 can be done with duxa tool alone and it extracts very fast in my experience. Then i just proceed with the rest steps.
