# 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)
|
|
```
|
