# PSXACT
|
|
|
|
This project aims to emulate the PlayStation™ 1 console in an accurate
|
|
fashion. No hacks or proprietary software will be used to accomplish this goal.
|
|
|
|
This emulator is designed to work "out of the box", no plug-in hell required!
|
|
|
|
## Current Status
|
|
|
|
Currently, the emulator can get through the BIOS, but hasn't booted any
|
|
commercial games yet. A software rasterizer is used to attempt pixel accurate
|
|
graphical output, the results are quite nice!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
The emulator requires a BIOS file, which can be dumped from a physical console.
|
|
|
|
Once you have a BIOS file, PSXACT can be invoked via command line, using the
|
|
following simple interface:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ psxact <bios file here> <game file here>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Building
|
|
|
|
This project uses CMake for builds, and requires SDL2.
|
|
|
|
I personally use the `FindSDL2.cmake` script available
|
|
[here](https://github.com/tcbrindle/sdl2-cmake-scripts).

## Contributing
|
|
|
|
If you'd like to contribute, please create a fork and issue pull requests! I am
|
|
very open to newcomers, and will need all the help I can get to make the best
|
|
PS1 emulator available.
|
|
|
|
However, do try and follow the syntax used by the project when contributing, I
|
|
**will** rewrite any code to make it match the project style before accepting.
