Error libshacccg suprx is not installed

Vita dev Rinnegatamante has pushed a significant update to the latest Nightly build of VitaDB Downloader, an “app store” for your homebrew-enabled PS Vita. This update adds auto-installation of libshacccg.suprx, a file necessary for many homebrew games and ports. Installing this file was a somewhat painful manual process until now.

Recent updates of VitaDB Downloader also added support for PSP Homebrew games. With the amount of features and quality of life enhancements, this is becoming the best appstore for the PS Vita.

What is VitaDB Downloader

VitaDB is the most used Vita app repository for owners of homebrew-enabled PS Vita consoles. The database hosts thousands of utility software and games, with a website where people can manually download the homebrew themselves for manual installation on their console. It also provides an API, allowing developers to access the database programmatically. This means in particular that there are several Vita app “homebrew stores” that let you install games directly from your Vita, leveraging this repository.

Multiple “homebrew installers” exist that leverage VitaDB, such as Vita Homebrew Browser (VHBB), Easy VPK, Better homebrew Browser, and more. Which one you’ll use depends on your personal preferences, but Rinnegatamante (who developed and maintains VitaDB) has shown frustration that they all seem to have issues.

It’s in this context that he decided to release VitaDB Downloader, which can be considered as the “official” VitaDB client.

VitaDB Downloader Features

• Searching by author/homebrew name.
• Filtering apps by category.
• Viewing of all available screenshots for apps.
• Sorting apps by different criteria (Most Recent, Oldest, Most Downloaded, Least Downloaded, Alphabetical)
• Showing of several metadata for apps.
• Download and installation of vpk+data files or vpk only at user discretion. (No more need to redownload data files everytime you want to update an homebrew for which data files are unchanged)
• Minimalistic GUI based on dear ImGui with focus on robustness over fancyness.
• Fast boot time (Only the very first boot will take a bit more due to app icons download. Successive boots will be basically instant)
• Low storage usage (Screenshots are served on demand, the only data that are kept on storage are app icons with a complessive storage usage lower than 10 MBs).
• Tracking of installed apps, even when not installed through VitaDB Downloader, and of their state (outdated/updated).
• Background music (You can customize it by changing ux0:data/VitaDB/bg.ogg with your own preferred track).
• Background image/video (You can customize it by changing ux0:data/VitaDB/bg.mp4 or ux0:data/VitaDB/bg.png).
• Support for themes (Customization of GUI elements via ux0:data/VitaDB/themes.ini) with built-in downloader and manager.

In our experience, VitaDB Downloader has proven to be extremely reliable, packed with useful features, and blazingly fast.

Download VitaDB Downloader

• You can Download VitaDB Downloader here.
• Themes can be downloaded here

Note
The Auto Installer for libshacccg.suprx can also be downloaded separately here (nickname ShaRKBR33D), if you need that file but don’t want to use VitaDB Downloader. Although to be honest, at this point given the benefits you’re getting with VitaDB Downloader, I don’t see why you wouldn’t want to install it 🙂

Install like any other VPK (reminder, you need a hacked PS Vita!). Once installed, you should be able to install any other homebrew (that is, those present on VitaDB) from the VitaDB Downloader interface!
