PSXEMU

Playstation emulator. Very much a work-in-progress.

A personal project to learn about 3D graphics (hardware and software), computer architecture and software project management.

TODO:

Code:

• GTE: finish off first few instructions
• Fixed point and repeating sections of GTE instructions need refinement
• CPU Tests
• GTE Tests
• GPU and window interface (opengl and vulkan)
• MDEC needs finishing
• DMA needs testing
• Method of loading data from ROMs/CDs
• Interrupts
• Controllers: both control system and maps to hardware devices

Project Management

• Internally: Some sort of error system. (e.g. memory addresses)
• Sorting out graphics APIs and locations
• CMAKE!! Get cmake working for the project. This (may be) crucial for linking with graphics libs

Personal notes:

For compiling graphics: pkg-config --static --libs glfw3. Everything that comes up needs to be linked.

glfw3 libraries are found in /usr/local/lib

CPU needs to be tested in depth: the testbench is written and tests can be written too!

DONE:

• Memory base
• Registers
• CPU
• CPU testbench
• GTE instructions and flags
• Fixed point for GTE
• GTE testbench
• DMA base
