Playstation 4 Emulator for Windows

psOff - PlayStation 4 Emulation (Windows)

In development. Does it run ...? No!

Runtime and rendering part is private currently. Target is to have a standalone framework for shader reconstruction, command buffer translation and managing the GPU memory, for others to use. This project uses it to run "Linux" binaries on windows.

Description

Yet another compatibility layer! I solely focused on the rendering part and recently started to implement the system functions to run some binaries.

It renders decently fast, the planned changes will make it almost perfect. Had to reverse engineer and try out a lot, before.

It currently doesn't support:

• multiple command buffer submits
• for loops in shader
• missing opcodes
• missing symbols

I’m happy for any help. Just hop in, system part isn't complicated.
I don't serve spaghetti only bugs.

Getting Started

wiki: Building psoff

Dependencies

• Vulkan SDK 1.3.268.0, minimum
• Up to date graphic drivers

(May add the Vulkan libs in Future Releases, if needed.)

For development:

• Ninja
• CMake 3.24+
• Visual Studio 2022, it's just for the build environment (uses clang-cl,c++20)
• Windows SDK 10.0.22621.0 or newer

Installing

For testing, just download the latest release and install the Vulkan SDK.

Executing a program

.\emulator.exe --h
.\emulator.exe --file="C:/****/eboot.bin"

If no --root is defined, it uses the folder from --file
For testing/benchmark, use --vsync=0

Update (app1): --update

.\emulator.exe --file="C:/****/eboot.bin" --update="C:/FolderWithUpdate"

It expects the undecrypted Target to be in the following format:

sce_module
sce_sys
eboot.bin

Try out input_ps4 to see if the emulator and your controller work correctly

Development

Use boosts thread, mutex and conditions. The waits have to be alertable in order to receive fake signals from "kernel".

Project uses p7 for tracing -> Baical server.

• modules: the ps4 libraries
• core: kernel, memory etc.
• emulator.exe: (From Releases) contains the runtime and rendering

I'm using vscode, '.vscode\tasks.json' contains the config & build tasks.

psoff_public's Issues

working on gui

Hello,
I am currently working on a gui.
I have a question about audio:
what are the values for device?
what value for volume? (from to)
attached pictures of the project.
I am still at the beginning
Greetings

Black screen with audio on Nvidia GPU

in the previous release the emulator opens a window and closes immediately on nvidia, it didn't work, but now in beta 0.3 it opens a black screen with audio, runs sonic with good audio no stutter but no graphics, it's a black screen.

Script and GUI for Load Games Windows

Script load games Windows requests a very complicated method of running PC games

Is it based on Kyty?

I am just wondering if is it based on Kyty or completely something else? (because It reminded me of Kyty based on the screenshots)

Choppy Sound

Next Features| v.0.4-beta

Features/Bugfixes

Tracking the changes on the current feature branch. Check out Actions for the newest libs.

• #16
• Window is to big, scaled up. (Needs new emulator.exe)
• Config files
• Allow specifying logging endpoint
• --update for mountpoint /app1/
• Sonic wants to be blue again
• redirect logs to file
• blackhole runs again

More symbols, better controller support

Next Features| v.0.5-beta

• better NVIDIA compatibility
• Shader: Support for for-loops
• Move runtime and main.cpp to public
• "We are doomed"
• libSceNgs2

Missing symbol

Hi,

I tried to lauch Quake (CUSA 24593) but there is a problem with the symbol:

Selected GPU:AMD Radeon(TM) Graphics api:1.3
0x1400186e8
0x140015402
0x14000e161
0x20031ebd in libc.prx
Missing Symbol| Name:-o5uEDpN+oY#A#B Lib:libkernel(ver:1) Mod:libkernel(major:1 minor:1)

And then crash

Impossible to close emulator.exe windows

Hi,

When I launch a game like Sonic Mania, it work.
But when I want to close it (to close the windows) it doesn't work and stay like this. I need to use the task manager to force it to close :/

Thanks you

Starting script

It's basic, but idk, maybe we can use something like this to start :)

Tell more or close it :)

@echo off
