Want to play VNDS games on Higurashi-Vita? Here’s how you can convert them:

What the conversion does:

  • Converts all images to 32-bit PNGs, using ARGB bits. This ensures libvita2d can load them.
  • Organizes the folder to look like a Higurashi folder by moving assets into different folders.
  • Unzips ZIP files.
  • Creates an “isvnds” file to mark the folder as a VNDS game for Higurashi-Vita.
  • If your game has .aac audio, it detects and converts it with FFmpeg.

How to use:

  • Make sure you have at least Higurashi Vita v2.4+.
  • Get a VNDS game.
  • If your game has AAC audio, install FFmpeg and ensure it’s in PATH or in the same directory as the converter.
  • Extract the VNDS game ZIP file. No need to extract sound.zip, background.zip, etc. yourself.
  • Run the program.
  • Choose the root of the VNDS game folder. Linux users will need to type in the path manually, while Windows users can use a GUI.
  • Wait for it.
  • The converted game will be in a new folder named "<original folder name>-converted".
  • Move the converted game folder to ux0:data/HIGURASHI/Games/.
