The 1st pkg installs the 2nd automatically or do I have to do it manually after?

you need to use reactpsn with the rap file to activate it for your account.
most likely a pkg crack will show up soon, but its cleaner to do it yourself with a rap file
so you can update it later like any other game, with a pkg cracked psn game its not possible - every update undoes the crack.

 Spoiler: | | Quote: | First off , I take no responsibility if this causes any damage to your ps3 or gets you banned from PSN , both very unlikely in any case.
Also this is my first attempt at creating a guide and I myself have started using reActPSN just a few days ago so any suggestions/corrections from more experienced members are always welcome.
Thanks to PatrickBatman , godreborn for their insightful posts and gambaa for reActPSN for 4.xx CFW and the original 3.55 tutorial.
This guide is only for people on REBUG 4.21.1/4.21.2/4.30.1 or Rogero 2.03/2.04/2.05 as they already have the patched vsh required to use reActPSN.
reActPSN is an app which can be used to activate / reactivate all your lost PSN content or to activate PSN games posted by other members.
Here are the steps for getting reActPSN up and running on your PS3.
1.Install reActPSN.
You can find reActPSN for 4.xx CFW here.
Install reActPSN but do not run it.
2.You are now ready to activate PSN content.
Create a folder named “exdata” on the root of your external drive.
Within this folder you must place .rap files for the content you wish to activate.
.rap files are files which activate PSN content without containing any information of the original buyer of the content.
Do not rename the files , paste them in the exdata folder as they are.
Once done , connect your external drive to the right most port on your PS3 (If you get kicked back to the xmb try switching ports).
Do not connect multiple USB devices , only the drive which contains the exdata folder with .rap files.
Create a new user profile on your XMB named aa. The aa profile is required for using reActPSN and run it from the aa profile only.
Log in to aa profile from the XMB and run reActPSN (no button needs to be pressed if you have only placed .rap files in the exdata folder).
The PS3 will reboot after processing the rap files.This may take a while depending on the number of .rap files.
You may be greeted with a message that your ps3 was not shut down properly upon restart.
Don't panic.This is normal.Press circle to skip.
You will notice that the aa profile has changed/renamed to reActPSN.
This also contains the number of activated rifs and edats.
.rif files are files created from the .rap files by reActPSN to activate the content for your PS3.
Do not use reActPSN profile to run reActPSN.
Create the user profile aa once more to use for activating raps in the future.
After this you will not be required to create this profile again as running reActPSN from the aa profile will not rename it.
So you should have 2 profiles which deal with reActPSN on your XMB :
aa profile which you need to use to run reActPSN and
reActPSN profile which tells you the number of rifs and edats you have activated (and actually stores the rif files for content you have activated).
3.You can now install the pkg file for the content
Now login to your normal profile on the XMB and proceed to Install the pkg file for the content you just activated.
The content you installed should now work.
Also if you are installing dlc which is for a different region than the one of your game , you may need to move it to the appropriate folder in hdd0/game
TIP : To test if reActPSN is working for you , try this theme pack by neociano from here
Troubleshooting (Only refer to this if you tried the guide and were unable to activate content)
1. I ran reActPSN from the aa profile but it did not restart my ps3.It sent me back to the XMB and now says "Unknown CFW" on the reActPSN app
Solution:
This maybe because reActPSN did not detect your external hard disk.
Ensure that the external hard disk is visible on the XMB (In the Music/Videos/Photo Section) before running reActPSN from the aa profile.
Uninstall reActPSN , reinstall it and try again.
If it still does not work , try switching usb ports and using different usb media.
Also check if your usb drive shows up as dev_usb006 in mM's file manager.
If so , you may need to use a special version of reActPSN instead of the normal one.
Uninstall the old version , download and install the new version and follow the guide from the start.
THIS FIX IS FOR 4.x CFW USERS WHOSE USB DEVICE IS NAMED dev_usb006 ONLY!
Unofficial ReActPSN v2.23b with dev_usb006 fix (Thanks rewtnull) :
Code:
http://www.mediafire.com/?vte1h2m7ake95aj
2. I followed all the steps but I am unable to activate any content.
I get the following message when I apply a theme installed from the guide
"This theme cannot be used.
You maybe able to use it after you signing in.
sign in with the account that was used to purchase this theme and Select it again."
Solution:
This problem seems to occur on Rogero's CFW on ps3's which have never been online and do not have a PSN act.dat.
Either switch to rebug or you may need to get a PSN act.dat
If you have not created a PSN account already, do so.
After creating your PSN account , activate your ps3 for this account
On the PS3 XMB , go to the Playstation Network Tab ->Account Management->System Activation->PS3 System
Once your account is activated , go to the PSN Store and download some free content which requires activation.
You do not require to have the game to download the content.
Just before you start to download the content , it will say Activating and then start downloading.If not , try some other content.
This is required to create an act.dat file for your PSN account.
You could try
- Back to the future part 1 trial (100kb).
- GT5 Scion FR-S '12 (game vehicle)
- GT5 Corvette C7 Test Prototype '12 (as above)
- Max Payne 3 Gorilla Warfare Pack (game add-on)
- Max Payne 3 Disorganized Crime Pack (game level)
Now confirm that you have the act.dat file for your PSN account.
Sign out of PSN and Open mM’s File Manager .
Browse to hdd0/home/0000000X/exdata (The x indicates the profile number on the system)
You should find an act.dat file in this directory.
Open it by pressing X on it.It should have random numbers and alphabet in hexadecimal form.
This means that you now have the required PSN act.dat file.Back it up on your PC as well.
After this , you are no longer required to be online and can log off from PSN/disable network connection if you wish.
3. My usb ports are busted and I cannot get reActPSN to detect my external drive. Is there no way I can activate raps ?
Solution:
Since you will be not able to use reActPSN due to your busted usb ports , you could try using rap2rif
You will require a PSN act.dat or a reActPSN act.dat and your console's idps.
Here's a guide (Thanks to PatrickBatman)
Code:
http://psx-scene.com/forums/f265/reactpsn-true-blue-2-62-rap2rif-tutorial-102851/
and you can find an updated get_idps app for 4.xx CFW's here (Thanks pink1)

How to transfer your Savegame Guide:
You need:
Ni no Kuni BLES01555
Ni no Kuni NPUB30932
PC FTP Client
MultiMan (FTP)
Savegames
Prolog:
Ni no Kuni NPUB30932 uses BLUS30947 for Savegames.
Transfering the Savegame is possible one time per usage,
so save after loading the game!
Preparation:
Create the Savegame in Ni no Kuni NPUB30932.
The Counter must be the same as for BLES,
if you used _00002, save twice to create it!
Make Backup from Ni no Kuni BLES01555 Savegame!
How to:
Start MultiMan
Login via FTP
Change directory to:
"/dev_hdd0/home/00000001/savedata/BLUS30947_00001"
Delete content of the folder
Change directory to:
"/dev_hdd0/home/00000001/savedata/BLES01555_00001"
Move the whole content to:
"/dev_hdd0/home/00000001/savedata/BLUS30947_00001"
Close MultiMan
Start up Ni no Kuni NPUB30932
Load your Savegame
Once the Savegame is loaded, SAVE!
** INFO **
00000001 is the USER ID, if another is used,
take yours, same counts for the Savegame.
After moving the Savegame from BLES01555
you might see a damaged folder in the PS3
menu. Either, delete it or recover your Backup.
Have Fun |

...also you can get psn stuff v1.3 to leech untouched psn pkgs and needed .rap files for use with reactpsn. no need for pkgs cracks anymore, much cleaner with updates etc.

Just like a PC ATX box, you can hard power down the PS3 by just holding the POWER button for a while (about 10sec) to force it to shut down.
The fact your PS3 would have trouble turning on / off has probably nothing to do with the game itself. It does make the ps3 freeze, but turning it off shouldn't give you a hard time to turn it on.
You seem to have a FAT PS3 since you have "that button", I would start worrying about it 
| cheat2win wrote: | I ended up trying the DUPLEX version and well, fuck this shit.
It froze my PS3 to the point I had to switch it off using the power switch on the back of the console, because it wouldn't power down using the power button on the front. And the thing is, it wouldn't power on after. Not trough the power button nor trough the controller.
I had to switch it off and on several times using the power switch for it to finally power on with the front power button.
So unless a fix or a PSN version comes out, since I don't want to mess around with ReActPSN and such, I won't be playing this game because I prefer to have my PS3 on a working condition.
In another words: this version of the game is a console breaker in all the bad ways. Plus with the reported issues concerning the HDD I advice anyone thinking about playing it to avoid it unless you're OK with it possibly ruining either your console or HDD.
My opinion may seem harsh, but after witnessing my PS3 almost dying (it was refusing to power on) I feel entitled to it.

I meant a cracked PSN release of the game because I really don't want to mess around with ReActPSN and other stuff like you guys did.
But hey, maybe it if doesn't comes out I'll just have to do it.

I know that, and that's exactly the problem. The game froze the PS3 to the point that even after pressing the button for a long time it refused to power down, so I was forced to resort to the power switch.
Now, powering on yeah that has probably nothing to do with the game, directly that is. Indirectly it has, since it was the game that prompted the situation.
And what do you mean with the worrying? The console is fine, the problem is the game (the pirate version of it that is) that has this freezing issues.

I mean that since you are having trouble turning on your PS3, freeze or not, then you should worry. It shouldn't happen.
Since I debug a lot on my PS3, I can tell you I made it freeze endless time, and NEVER EVER, I had issues to reboot it.
Please someone correct me if Ni No Kuni made this very same issue

Hopefully :/ I think a friend of mine got the very same issue once, but the ps3 itself wouldn't have any issue after being finally ON.
That was on a fat 80gb

Mine is also a fat 80GB model. :/

Anyway, I'm this close to install the PSN version and to use ReActPSN.
You guys attest by this method? No problems if done right? No side effects whatsoever besides having to keep that extra profile?
