PS5PCEM 0.3.0-alpha.2

This prototype update fixes missing game cover art in the Windows launcher.

Fixed

  • Decode each title's sce_sys/icon0.png directly through the Windows GDI+
    image codec.
  • Stop depending on PNG file associations and the Windows shell thumbnail
    cache, which could return a generic white document icon instead of artwork.
  • Preserve the eight-title recent-game library and its existing local paths.

Requirements and limitations

  • Windows 10 2004 or newer, x86-64, with a Vulkan 1.2-capable graphics driver.
  • Compatibility remains experimental; black screens, missing graphics, stalls
    and crashes are still possible in unsupported titles.
  • Games, firmware, keys and console system software are not included.
  • These prototype binaries are not Authenticode-signed, so Windows may show an
    Unknown Publisher or Microsoft Defender SmartScreen warning.
