New from the Vita hacking community: Firestar, a Wipeout 2048 Mod Manager by bonkmaykr.

Firestar is a cross-platform Java-based mod manager for WipEout 2048, which runs on a desktop/laptop computer and aims to allow easy installation of mods for users with very little hassle. It is compatible with both real PSVita hardware, as well as emulators.

Seems promising so far. Hopefully we'll get mods that enable the online ship liveries and possibly, if the stars align, even create a makeshift Racebox mode of sorts for WO2048 on the Vita.

Additionally, the Vita3k emulator is running WO2048 at a nearly perfect state. Combined with this mod manager, we could be looking at a major revival for the game once online functionality becomes reliable.
