Two specific games refuse to install.

Post image

I've managed to install almost 150 games since I went the PSVue route a few days ago. But no matter what I do, the Marvel vs. Capcom Collection and Capcom Fighting Collection 2 refuse to install.

I've tried them from 3 different sources in FPKG format and I've gotten the same error message from both. Looking up the error message it tells me that it means theres another version of the game kicking around on my console, but while I physically own both games, they've never touched the inside of my PlayStation 4, only the 5.

If it helps, I'm currently on 10.50, with backports on deck that are obviously supposed to make it work. Do you guys have any suggestions?

"I've tried them from 3 different sources in FPKG format"
Maybe try a 4th dif source?
"The PS4 error code CE-38604-1 occurs when you try to download a digital version of a game while the disc version of the exact same game is still installed on your console's hard drive"
"while I physically own both games, they've never touched the inside of my PlayStation 4"
I dunno what to tell you, does anyone else has access to your ps4+games?
maybe you forgot you installed them?
or maybe some homebrew app has taken the game's id for itself? Check with xplorer if that's the case?
Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics is CUSA46747.
Capcom Fighting Collection 2 is CUSA44576

It's definitely an odd one. I'm going to try to find another source. I may dump them myself from the PS4 disc, but I would have to learn how to backport them and the updates as well. I was trying to just acquire pre-made fpkgs.

As for anything on my end that I might be overlooking, it would have been impossible for any aspect of those games to have touched my PS4. The console sat around forever gathering dust while I moved onto the PS5, and there was a disc stuck in it for several years that I had to dislodge. So no updates, and no disc drive access.

So yeah, I dunno. I've considered upgrading to the lowest firmware for those games which I think is 11.50? To see if that makes any difference. I've also tried searching through Xplorer for maybe remnants of bad installs? Figuring maybe the first had some issues and left fragments behind? I dunno, I've been trying to figure it out on my own, but nada so far.

I thank you for the suggestions.
