shadPS4
An early PS4 emulator for Windows and Linux
Status
Currently it can only load PS4 ELF files.
Elf Loader
Logging system
Everything else
Why?
The project started as a fun project. Due to short amount of free time probably it will take a while since it will be able to run something decent but I am trying to do regular small commits.
Build
Windows
The project is using cmake files. To build, just use Visual Studio 2022.
Linux
Generate the build directory in the shadPS4 directory:
cmake -S . -B build/
Enter the directory:
cd build/
Use make to build the project:
make -j$(nproc)
| Platform | Build status |

I currently accept any kind of contribution, here is a list of some items that may be useful:
- PKG extractor (there was an initial work on this, just search project history commits).
- Initial GUI with imgui, SDL3 and Vulkan.
- Better logging system with spdlog.
