| |
| === First RPCS3 run === | === SquashFS folder compression === |
| |
| The emulator we use is [[https://rpcs3.net/|RPCS3]], the PS3 opensource emulator. It requires more resources than older systems, in particular you need a decent CPU with a Vulkan-compatible GPU for hardware acceleration. You won't run games correctly if you don't have GPU acceleration, please refer to RPCS3 [[https://rpcs3.net/quickstart|hardware recommendations on their website]]. | From Batocera **v33** and higher, you can losslessly compress PS3 game folders as SquashFS images and still have RPCS3 read them as if though they weren't compressed at all! |
| |
| On Batocera 29, for the first run, you need to manually install the firmware into RPCS3. In order to do so, you need to launch the File browser from ''[F1]'' when you are on the main **systems menu**, go to **Applications** and run the application ''rpcs3-config''. | To do so, open up [[:access_the_batocera_via_ssh|SSH]] and run the following commands on your already installed disc-based game: |
| |
| When you are on the RPCS3 configuration tool, go to the **File** menu and select **Install firmware**. The firmware file you need to provide is the one installed above. It's located in ''/userdata/bios/PS3UPDAT.PUP'' on the Batocera Linux file system. The install of the PlayStation 3 firmware will take a few minutes ("Compiling PPU modules")... please be patient! | <code> |
| | cd /userdata/roms/ps3 |
| | mksquashfs "Game name.ps3" "Game name.squashfs" |
| | </code> |
| |
| === Run disc games === | For example: |
| |
| Once you have correctly installed the firmware in the previous step, you can quit the File browser (''[Ctrl]''+''[Q]'') and go in the PS3 system menu from EmulationStation. | <code> |
| | cd /userdata/roms/ps3 |
| | mksquashfs "Little Big Planet.ps3" "Little Big Planet.squashfs" |
| | </code> |
| |
| PlayStation 3 games are installed as ''.ps3'' directories. | ==== Digital PSN games ==== |
| |
| On the first run of each game, RPCS3 will be compiling PPU modules again. | PSN games were originally downloaded from the online store and installed onto the hard-drive. Because they are not disc-based games, some manual action is required: |
| |
| === Run PSN games === | - On the system list, press ''[F1]'' on the keyboard and click on **Applications** in the left sidebar. |
| | - Open ''rpcs3-config''. |
| | - Click on **File** -> **Install Packages, Raps, Edats**. |
| | - Navigate to and install the PSN game's PKG file (usually the larger file, this may take a while). |
| | - Repeat the process for any additional licence/DLC files (RAPs, EDATs and other PKG files). |
| | - Right click the installed title and select **Copy Info** -> **Copy Name + Serial**. |
| | - Once that's complete, use ''[Alt]'' + ''[Tab]'' to switch focus back to the file explorer (if we quit out of the application, the clipboard is cleared). |
| | - In the file browser, click on **Share** and navigate to ''roms/ps3''. |
| | - Create a new text file titled after the game's name followed by the ''.psn'' extension. For instance, ''Scott Pilgrim vs. the World.psn'' Pasting the clipboard's contents here and erasing the serial number may be faster. |
| | - Open this as a text document and enter the game's ID code in a single line. For instance, ''NPUB30162''. Pasting the clipboard's contents and erasing the name may be faster. ''[Ctrl]'' + ''[S]'' to save the file and ''[Ctrl]'' + ''[Q]'' to exit. |
| | - ''[Alt]'' + ''[Tab]'' back to ''rpcs3-config'' and exit out of both the ''rpcs3-config'' and the file manager by pressing ''[Ctrl]'' + ''[Q]'' two additional times. |
| | - Update your gamelist to show the added PSN game. |
| |
| - Install the game from pkg files in rpcs3-config | The PSN game will be installed to ''/userdata/system/configs/rpcs3/dev_hdd0/game/<GAMEID>'' and the userdata to ''/userdata/system/configs/rpcs3/dev_hdd0/home/00000001/''. This is subject to change in the future. |
| - Create a text file in ''roms/ps3/'' with a ''.psn'' extension. The contents of the file is the game's ID - for example, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (which won't get out of demo mode unless it's running from the proper folder) would contain NPUB30162 in the PSN file. | |
| | Here's an example text file (which can be downloaded) that can be placed in ''rom/ps3'': |
| |
| <code - Scott Pilgrim vs. the World.psn> | <code - Scott Pilgrim vs. the World.psn> |
| NPUB30162 | NPUB30162 |
| | |
| </code> | </code> |
| |
| And that's it. I added an extra line to the English version of the PS3's system text to explain it. | For this example text file, the resulting folder structure would look like this: |
| |
| === Folder compression === | <code> |
| | /userdata/ |
| | ├─ roms/ps3/ |
| | │ └─ Scott Pilgrim vs. the World.psn |
| | └─ system/configs/rpcs3/dev_hdd0/game/NPUB30162/ |
| | └─ (the game data) |
| | </code> |
| |
| From Batocera **v33** and higher, you can losslessly compress PS3 game folders as SquashFS images and still have RPCS3 read them as if though they weren't compressed at all! | ===== Emulators ===== |

| | === First RPCS3 run === |
| | |
| | When RPCS3 is run for the first time (just attempt to launch any game from ES), it will ask to install the provided firmware from the BIOS folder (''userdata/bios/PS3UPDAT.PUP''). Do so. This may take a while, grab a cup of tea while you wait. When it's done, simply exit the program (**File** -> **Exit** or ''[Ctrl]'' + ''[Q]'') and launch a game again. This will need to be done for every new firmware released. This action can also be invoked manually by going to **File** -> **Install firmware**. |
| | |
| | On the first run of each game, RPCS3 will compile PPU modules. This takes a long time, so grab some tea. In all future launches, wait time is dramatically decreased. |
| | |
| | <WRAP center round alert> |
| | Do not launch games directly from RPCS3's interface. Do so from ES. Otherwise you will not have audio. |
| | </WRAP> |
| | |
| | It is possible to have RPCS3 compile the PPU for all currently detected games (as opposed to only doing so when the game is launched). In rpcs3-config, go to (FIXME precise instructions) boot menu -> compile PPU cache for firmware and all games. |
