rpcs3 VS Ryujinx

The emulator: https://rpcs3.net/ The rom: https://vimm.net/vault/24833 I forget if you need anything else but finding a video on YouTube is not very hard for rpcs3, a bit complicated, sorry I can't remember how to do it all, it's been a while.

What you'll need: A PC with a decent CPU (RPCS3 tierlist of CPUs), a legally obtained copy of Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time (eBay link for physical; getting your own digital copies of PS3 games is a bit more complex and requires jailbreaking your PS3, I recommend MrMario2011's channel for any PS3 jailbreaking you need to do... or Google), and a PS3 emulator for PC (RPCS3 is the only one you should look at). Note that you can also run RPCS3 on Linux and macOS but I have no experience with that so any system requirements will have to be found by you). You also need a DualShock 4 (PlayStation Store link), a DualSense (PlayStation Store link), or another controller that has gyro functionality. There are other methods for bypassing gyro, such as emulating gyro (GitHub link for DualShock 4 emulator) or modifying your saves to skip past mandatory gyro sections of the game (PasteBin link for a tutorial). Also check out the RPCS3 wiki page for the game for any potential fixes.

RPCS3 (PlayStation 3) Emulator: https://rpcs3.net/

it's the same issue as here: https://github.com/RPCS3/rpcs3/issues/13031

Finally, there is a sizeable catalog of PlayStation 3 games that support 3D, which you can output in SBS using the RPCS3 emulator. Their resolution is quite low but the stereo effect can still be impressive. Note that normally only half SBS is supported, but some games might have a community patch for widescreen resolutions, in which case full SBS might be possible. Make sure to set Configuration -> GPU -> 3D to "Side-by-side" before starting a game. This will tell the game that you are connected to a 3D display, in which case it would have an in-game option to enable stereoscopic 3D. You might also need to set the aspect ratio to 4:3. I can confirm that Prince of Persia Trilogy 3D works nicely. Note that you need a fairly beefy gaming rig to emulate PlayStation 3 well!

Their C# JIT [1] generates x86_64 or ARM native code. This is why it's fast.

This isn't true anymore. It was their first approach, but since then they have switched to their own JIT recompiler. You can read their rationale here: https://github.com/Ryujinx/Ryujinx/pull/693

For the MacOS port, they explain in the blog post you linked that they use an hypervisor, meaning the original game binary runs untranslated. (with the option to use an ARM-to-ARM JIT)

Thanks for the guide. I am new to Ryujinx, but is there a version that runs Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak? I searched on reddit and github but I got lost on the part where gdkchan tried to solve the issue here. Maybe it doesn't work on Mac?

Same as previous post. Latest version did change things related to hashing https://github.com/Ryujinx/Ryujinx/commit/58907e2c290473326e5ab74bdfe1429b8a518ba4 so probably bug?

Did you try the build in here: https://github.com/Ryujinx/Ryujinx/pull/4899

As it’s emulator, you can’t be sure about games performance as a whole. Some perform better, some - worse, some won’t run at all. You can have a quick look at this video for example https://youtu.be/9XyjErqV3pI Then you should check if the games you’re interested in are considered playable https://github.com/Ryujinx/Ryujinx/wiki/ Actually, there is another one emulator Yuzu and some games may perform better with it. BTW I have a bit better 5500u processor with 16 dual-channel. It performs quite well even with aaa games till 2020. But there are also so many good old games :) Currently I’m playing Warcraft 3 and it still looks and plays very well.
