# shadPS4
|
|
|
|
An early PS4 emulator for Windows and Linux written in C++
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
# Status
|
|
|
|
Currently, it can only load PS4 ELF files.
|
|
|
|
Progress is focused on videoout_basic.elf from SDK demos, currently, it can load with fully working graphics. Others probably won't run since they might not be able to relocate all necessary functions

 Everything else

|
# Why?
|
|
|
|
The project started as a fun project. Due to short free time, it will probably take a while since it will be able to run something decent, but I am trying to do regular small commits.
