Dolphin for PS4 v03.04

On v03.03? Don't update from inside that version: its updater uninstalls the app (your games, saves and settings are safe). Install this package by hand instead.

Install

  1. Install DolphinPS4-v03.04.pkg with your package installer (on top of an older version is fine; your games, saves and settings are kept).
  2. Games go in /data/DolphinPS4/games/, or pick another folder in Settings → Game Folder.
  3. Settings → About should show 03.04.

New since v02.99

  • Updates from inside the app. Dolphin checks GitHub for a new version when it starts (or in Settings) and asks before downloading it. The package is checked and saved to /data/pkg; close Dolphin and install it from Debug Settings → Game → Package Installer (or GoldHEN's). This release still has to be installed by hand.
  • Choose your games folder. Settings → Game Folder browses the PS4's folders and USB drives. Press Square in the Games column to refresh the list after copying new games.
  • Safer save states. The Save/Load rows show whether a slot is Empty or from an Other Version. A state that can't be loaded is never loaded halfway: the game carries on as it was and the menu tells you why. States from earlier versions keep working.
  • Network fixed. Cover downloads and the update check work again.
  • Wii Menu no longer crashes the console. Picking Wii Menu in a Wii game's HOME Menu now returns to the game list.
  • Menu hint. When a game starts, a short hint in the bottom-right corner shows the L3 + R3 buttons that open the menu.
  • Smoother shader compiling. The shader compilers can now also run on the PS4's seventh CPU core.
  • Better speed in Spider-Man 2, Call of Duty 2: Big Red One and Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes. Games that use the GameCube's memory mapping (Spider-Man 2 is one) no longer freeze with the Fast speed setting.
  • Smarter auto CPU clock. It undoes a clock increase that didn't help with dropped frames.
  • Logs no longer fill up with the same message repeated thousands of times.
