The following steps correspond to the pictures of the same number in the "applying the patch" folder included with this download. I apologize if some of the things covered in this short tutorial are painfully obvious to you, but I want to make sure that everyone, regardless of their technical knowledge will be able to play this patch. Thanks for bearing with me! Now, let's get started!

1) Download the PD1st_PatchvX.X.zip archive, with X.X representing the version number. Chances are, if you're reading this, then you successfully completed this step.

2) Extract the contents of the archive to wherever you want. Simply right click the .zip file, and select Extract All.

3) The contents of the archive should now be extracted. Open the folder and you should find several files. Again, you've probably already done this if you're reading this text, but I'm saying this just in case.

4) Open up ppf-o-matic3.exe

5) You should come to a screen similar to what is shown in the picture. Click on the little floppy disk icon to the right of "ISO File"

6) Navigate to wherever you've saved your Project DIVA ISO, and double click it. MAKE SURE THAT YOU'VE BACKED UP YOUR ISO BEFOREHAND IN CASE SOMETHING GOES WRONG!

7) Your screen should look similar to this picture. Now, click on the floppy disk icon next to where it says "Patch".

8) Navigate to where you saved the patch. It should be in the same folder as ppf-o-matic, and shouold be named "Project Diva - X.X Patch.ppf", with X.X again representing the patch version. Double click the patch.

9) Some text should appear in the ppf-o-matic window. It's not really important for our purposes what it says, so just click on "Apply".

10) After a few seconds, a window should appear as in the picture. Congrats! You've successfully applied the ppf patch.

11) Now, for the easier part of the installing the patch. In the same folder as ppf-o-matic, there should be a folder called divapatch. Connect your PSP to your computer and navigate to ms0:/SEPLUGINS/. If this directory doesn't exist, create it. Copy the divapatch folder and its contents to the SEPLUGINS folder.

NOTE: "ms0:/" simply refers to whatever letter drive your PSP is assigned to when it's connected to your computer. In my case, it is I:/, but it may be different for you.

12) In your GAME.TXT file, add the line "ms0:/seplugins/divapatch/divapatch.prx 1", without the quotes. If you do not have a GAME.TXT, create one. Make sure you save the changes you make.
* If you use decrypted dlc then use nploader instead of nodrm. Also make sure that nploader.prx is listed before divapatch.prx.

13) For the final step, all you need to do is copy your patched ISO from step 10 to ms0:/ISO/. If you don't have an ISO folder, create one. After it's done copying, you can now boot up your PSP and start playing Project DIVA in English!
