# C9: Final Checks

Finally, boot up the game. There are two things we have to confirm to see if everything worked; if you followed the guide step by step, then everything *shoul*d be fine.

{% hint style="warning" %}
If the game does **not** boot:

* Make sure you aren't using a modified copy of the game, see [Chapter 0](https://theroyalproject.gitbook.io/installation-guide-hardware/c0-setting-the-stage) for information on this.
* Check that you are using the correct mod.sprx file ([Chapter 2](https://theroyalproject.gitbook.io/installation-guide-hardware/c2-download-time)).
* Check that you didn't do something wrong during the patching process ([Chapter 4](https://theroyalproject.gitbook.io/installation-guide-hardware/c4-creating-the-patch.yml)).
* Check that all the files are in the right places ([Chapter 8](https://theroyalproject.gitbook.io/installation-guide-hardware/c8-final-trip-to-the-ps3)): the **p5ex** folder in **dev\_hdd0** and **the CPK files and patched EBOOT.BIN** in gamefolder\USRDIR.
* If the issue persists, then go back to [Chapter 2](https://theroyalproject.gitbook.io/installation-guide-hardware/c2-download-time) and follow the guide again, carefully.

After the game opens and you're on the title screen, you have to first check that the logo shows **P5 The Royal Project** and not **P5 Persona 5**. Like this.

{% hint style="info" %}
If it shows the original Persona 5 logo or the P5EX logo, you must have messed up something when creating the [mod.cpk in Chapter 3](https://theroyalproject.gitbook.io/installation-guide-hardware/c3-building-the-mod.cpk). Go back there and create a new one, make sure to follow the guide carefully.
{% endhint %}

Next thing we have to check is the sign Morgana is lying on. Next to the time, it should have **TRP** written on in, instead of **P5**. Like this.

<figure><img src="https://3517447842-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FGoHg6F5JKG5QaZJ7PfHd%2Fuploads%2F1s0pCOSRRimHv1ZEihRY%2FPersona%205_1.png?alt=media&#x26;token=236345c9-ace4-4265-ac8c-fcb23598d0b2" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

{% hint style="info" %}
If it shows **P5** instead of **TRP**, the Events\_05.cpk didn't get read properly. Check that the file is indeed located in \gamefolder\USRDIR\ and the name is **Events\_05**.cpk.
{% endhint %}

If both things are correct, **congratulations!** You have successfully installed P5EX and The Royal Project in your console. Enjoy the game as much as possible!

{% hint style="info" %}
If neither the *TRP Logo* appears nor the clock shows *TRP* instead of *P5*, then either the folders are not in the right place (check [Chapter 8](https://theroyalproject.gitbook.io/installation-guide-hardware/c8-final-trip-to-the-ps3) again) or the patching went wrong, so the best thing you can do is go back to [Chapter 3](https://theroyalproject.gitbook.io/installation-guide-hardware/c3-building-the-mod.cpk) and continue from there, making sure **you don't miss a step**.
