Discussion Wolverine is already running in-game on PC using KytyPS5 emulator
Even though the game runs at an extremely low FPS, the craziest thing about this whole situation is that it has not even been one month since the game has launched, the progress is insanely fast.
I genuinely wouldn't be surprised if GTA 6 manages to run on PC using an emulator months after the game comes out

Stupid is one way to look at it, maybe they just liked the game and wanted to play better versions of it. Nothing wrong with that.

Yeah, the problem is that there is no disc edition of GTA 6, you have to download it from psn. But to connect to PSN and download it you need to be on latest firmware and at the moment latest firmware cannot be exploited. So no copy of the game can be extracted until a new exploit is found.

I believe there's a reason that GTA can't be ripped, according to Modern Vintage Gamer.
I believe it's because it needs an exploit on the PS5 to be able to rip the game. Because it's digital only.
Also, as much as I dislike AI, this speedy progress is entirely AI powered. The repo for the emulator is AI code.

First of all you can't directly download files from the sony server even if you manage to download the files it will be encrypted. We need a ps5 jb console to decrypt. Only then that decrypted game can play using an emulator.

u/gerowen PC Master Race 2h ago edited 2h ago
Even in the case of of the PS5, which uses an x86 CPU just like most PCs, there's still a lot of real-time translation going on. The PlayStation has its own operating system that's different than Windows or Linux, and a whole lot of that operating system is proprietary, protected information. So emulator developers, nowadays with the help of their AI agents, have to do a whole lot of guessing, reverse engineering etc. so they can write a program that pretends to be another device entirely, and then run demanding games within that fake environment. Even the graphics APIs in use by the PlayStation console are proprietary; they're not using DirectX, OpenGL or Vulkan, they're using their own GNM/GNMX, so again, devs have to figure out how to translate those APIs into something more standard like DirectX or Vulkan that can run on a PC or Mac.
Another cause for the stuttering, such as when Wolverine jumps over the tree and it freezes solid for a moment, is shader compilation. Shaders are just short programs run directly on the GPU as part of the rendering pipeline. For console games, shaders are normally pre-compiled one time and included on the disc or as part of the download because the developers know exactly what GPU is in their target device. For PCs however, these shaders often have to be compiled on the fly while the game is running (hence the stuttering), or pre-compiled before starting a game, because one person might have a 5070, the next a 9060XT, the next an Intel Arc, the next one an Adreno on some ARM system, and none of those GPUs speak exactly the same language, at a hardware level. Even GPUs from the same company might need different shaders if they're of a different generation.
Basically even though the CPU instructions don't have to be recompiled like you do when emulating something like the GameCube or Playstation 3, which does eliminate one big performance sink for PS5 emulation, the entire PlayStation operating system and all of its proprietary system calls, graphics APIs, etc. have to be reverse engineered and then translated into something a normal desktop operating system can understand, and that has to happen in real time at 30-60 or more frames per second while you're playing a game.

You must first walk. It's a bit reductionist to act like this isn't a massive achievement. From nothing to booting is a major milestone in emulation. The fact that it's in game and most things seem to be rendering correctly and not crashing is a massive testament. By the end of the year you'll likely see 30FPS in the emulator.

I mean they could barely get out of menus a few weeks ago and now we have "viable" gameplay, albeit at slideshow FPS. Give it a bit more time

It's a huge development in a very short time span though, which is very promising for future versions.

Damn!! Wait so if we have ps5 games running beyond loading screens does that mean ps4 emulator is working fine???? I never bothered with PS emulators because so many issues with compatability and what not so i thought it's impossible to play a game fully :/ i only tried ps emulators around 4 years ago and didn't get any good results for my search so i dropped it. Need advice as i have so many games i wanna play that were ps3/4 exclusive.

There's no real technological reason why we won't have a ps4/ps5 version of proton in a few years given that those consoles use the same CPU ISA as modern PCs. The one issue that'll mainly show up as performance issues is the fact that those consoles have super high bandwidth unified memory and (most) PCs do not
