Quite a few real games run. Quite a few don't.
See the [Game compatibility list](https://github.com/xenia-project/game-compatibility/issues)
2019-03-10 23:03:21 +00:00
for currently tracked games, and feel free to contribute your own updates,

## Disclaimer
The goal of this project is to experiment, research, and educate on the topic
2013-11-16 09:29:25 +00:00
of emulation of modern devices and operating systems. **It is not for enabling
illegal activity**. All information is obtained via reverse engineering of

legally purchased devices and games and information made public on the internet
(you'd be surprised what's indexed on Google...).

## Quickstart
2018-05-16 15:16:13 +00:00
Windows 8.1+ with Python 3.4 and [Visual Studio 2017](https://www.visualstudio.com/downloads/) and the Windows SDKs installed:
> git clone https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia.git
> cd xenia
> xb setup
# Pull latest changes, rebase, and update submodules and premake:
> xb pull
# Build on command line:
> xb build
# Run premake and open Visual Studio (run the 'xenia-app' project):
> xb devenv
# Run premake to update the sln/vcproj's:
> xb premake
# Format code to the style guide:
> xb format
When fetching updates use `xb pull` to automatically fetch everything and
run premake for project files/etc.
## Building
See [building.md](docs/building.md) for setup and information about the
`xb` script. When writing code, check the [style guide](docs/style_guide.md)
2015-06-10 01:02:57 +00:00
and be sure to run clang-format!

2014-01-14 21:29:04 +00:00
Contribute! There's a ton of work that needs to be done, a lot of which
is wide open greenfield fun.

Fixes and optimizations are always welcome (please!), but in addition to
that there are some major work areas still untouched:
2014-01-10 03:12:51 +00:00
* Help work through missing functionality/bugs in game [compat](https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/issues?labels=compat)
* Add input drivers for [PS4 controllers](https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/issues/60) (or anything else)
* Skilled with Linux? A strong contributor is needed to [help with porting](https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/labels/cross%20platform)
2019-03-10 23:03:21 +00:00
See more projects [good for contributors](https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/labels/good%20first%20issue). It's a good idea to ask on Discord/check the issues before beginning work on something.
