The project started as a fun project. Due to limited free time, it will probably take a while before shadPS4 is able to run anything decent, but we're trying to make small, regular commits. # Build ## Windows Check building instructions in [Windows build](https://github.com/shadps4-emu/shadPS4/blob/main/documents/building-windows.md) ## Linux Check building instructions in [Linux build](https://github.com/shadps4-emu/shadPS4/blob/main/documents/linux_building.md) ## Build status |Platform|Build status| |--------|------------| |Windows SDL Build|[](https://github.com/shadps4-emu/shadPS4/actions/workflows/windows.yml) |Windows Qt Build|[](https://github.com/shadps4-emu/shadPS4/actions/workflows/windows-qt.yml) |Linux SDL Build|[](https://github.com/shadps4-emu/shadPS4/actions/workflows/linux.yml) |Linux Qt Build|[](https://github.com/shadps4-emu/shadPS4/actions/workflows/linux-qt.yml) # Executing a program You can copy and paste the path to the CMD or drag the executable file to the application. ``` C:\Users\******\shadPS4.exe C:\******\game_eboot.bin ``` # Main team - [georgemoralis](https://github.com/georgemoralis) - [raphaelthegreat](https://github.com/raphaelthegreat) - [psucien](https://github.com/psucien) - [skmp](https://github.com/skmp) - [wheremyfoodat](https://github.com/wheremyfoodat) - [raziel1000](https://github.com/raziel1000) Logo is done by [Xphalnos](https://github.com/Xphalnos) # Contribution We currently accept any contribution, just open a PR and we will check it :) # Sister Projects - [Panda3DS](https://github.com/wheremyfoodat/Panda3DS): An multiplatform 3DS emulator from our co-author wheremyfoodat - [hydra](https://github.com/hydra-emu/hydra): An multisystem, multiplatform emulator (chip-8,GB,NES,N64) from Paris
