Orbital #4: Performance Improvements
Experiments in PS4 emulation.
Current status: After last update, the bootloader now fetches decrypted kernels via IO, not AHCI. This fixes USB storage devices, including the internal HDD (there's a very long story behind this issue). There has been significant performance improvements resulting in smooth framerates. Texture loading issues are solved, which fixes some artifacts. We have also added support for PUPMGR functions, though decryption is still pending pending, hence the error in the end.
Several SAMU high-level emulation issues have been fixed. Finally we have also added the possibility of reinstalling firmware via virtual mass-storage USB devices.
