# DuckStation - PlayStation (PSX) Emulator
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
- CPU Recompiler/JIT (x86-64 and AArch64)
|
|
- Hardware (D3D11 and OpenGL) and software rendering
|
|
- Upscaling and true colour (24-bit) in hardware renderers
|
|
- "Fast boot" for skipping BIOS splash/intro
|
|
- Save state support
|
|
- Windows and Linux support - macOS may work, but not actively maintained
|
|
- Currently only .bin/.cue disc image formats are supported. Additional formats are planned
|
|
- Direct booting of homebrew executables
|
|
- Digital and analog controllers for input (rumble is forwarded to host)
|
|
|
|
## System Requirements
|
|
- A CPU faster than a potato.
|
|
- For the hardware renderers, a GPU capable of OpenGL 3.0/OpenGL ES 3.0/Direct3D 11 Feature Level 10.0 and above. So, basically anything made in the last 10 years or so.
|
|
- SDL-compatible game controller (e.g. XB360/XBOne)
|
|
|
|
## Building
|
|
|
|
### Windows
|
|
Requirements:
|
|
- Visual Studio 2019
|
|
|
|
1. Clone the respository with submodules (`git clone --recursive` or `git clone` and `git submodule update --init`).
|
|
2. Open the Visual Studio solution `duckstation.sln` in the root, or "Open Folder" for cmake build.
|
|
3. Build, binaries are located in `bin/x64`.
|
|
4. Copy the DLL files from `dep/msvc/bin64` to the binary directory.
|
|
5. Run `duckstation-x64-Release.exe` or whichever config you used.
|
|
|
|
### Linux
|
|
Requirements:
|
|
- CMake
|
|
- SDL2
|
|
|
|
1. Clone the repository. Submodules aren't necessary, there is only one and it is only used for Windows.
|
|
2. Create a build directory, either in-tree or elsewhere.
|
|
3. Run cmake to configure the build system. Assuming a build subdirectory of `build-release`, `cd build-release && cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -GNinja ..`.
|
|
4. Compile the source code. For the example above, run `ninja`.
|
|
5. Run the binary, located in the build directory under `src/duckstation/duckstation`.
|
|
|
|
### Android
|
|
**NOTE:** The Android frontend is still incomplete, not all functionality works and some paths are hard-coded.
|
|
|
|
Requirements:
|
|
- Android Studio with the NDK and CMake installed
|
|
|
|
1. Clone the repository. Submodules aren't necessary, there is only one and it is only used for Windows.
|
|
2. Open the project in the `android` directory.
|
|
3. Select Build -> Build Bundle(s) / APKs(s) -> Build APK(s).
|
|
4. Install APK on device, or use Run menu for attached device.
|
|
|
|
## Running
|
|
1. Configure the BIOS path in the settings.
|
|
2. Open a disc image file, enjoy.
|
|
|
|
## Default keyboard bindings
|
|
Keyboard bindings are currently not customizable. For reference:
|
|
- **D-Pad:** W/A/S/D or Up/Left/Down/Right

To access the menus with the controller, press the right stick down and use the D-Pad to navigate, A to select.
|
|
|
|
## Useful hotkeys
|
|
- **F1-F8:** Quick load/save (hold shift to save)
|
|
- **F11:** Toggle fullscreen
|
|
- **Tab:** Temporarily disable speed limiter
|
|
- **Pause/Break:** Pause/resume emulation
|
|
- **Space:** Frame step
|
|
- **End:** Toggle software renderer
|
|
- **Page Up/Down:** Increase/decrease resolution scale in hardware renderers
