What I'm trying to say is that a PS4 emulator, while certainly a great idea, is almost certainly impossible with todays level of technology. So, really, no matter how far the project gets, it will be limited by hardware for the foreseeable future.
They want to HLE and downgrade GPU rendering to cut down bottlenecks with speed. They also want to forget about sound emulation, and just work on CPUs with threading, HLE GPU and input. Some (the developer) want to work on LLE the BIOS to some point since they have the dump of it but for now I think simple homebrews and booting/GPU attempts would suffice somewhat on high-end devices of today. Maybe low FPS like rpcs3 but some hope for the foreseeable future
Quote:It's absolutely nothing. There is no actual emulation code or anything in that project. Doing a PS4 emu right now is impossible, for a lot more reasons than just the performance of it. At the very least wait until the system is hacked.
They already hacked the PS4 and dump the firmware. Some areas still encrypted but they have plenty to go by as this details: http://www.psdevwiki.com/ps4/Flash-Main#magic Also, they are working on disc decryption tools for PS4 encrypted disc data they say through email.
EXTRA: It does load a window with menues, but there's a few errors that needs to be fixed first that I get under bloodshed dev c++
