PCSX2-QT

[XargonWan]

Due to its own limitation, the standalone PCSX2 doesn't have any way to set the hotkeys, so no save and load state, no quit button.
In order to quit must be pressed:

STEAM -> PCSX2 -> (X) CLOSE WINDOW, and the state is not automatically saved.

PCSX2 team suggested to try the "new GUI" that allows to configure the controller, this must be resarched.

• Updated in the manifest + included pcsx2-qt
• configure the QT + hotkeys
• include the new configs
• Check if pcsx2-qt needs the workaround of pcsx2 (on flathub), and if not try to disable it in pcsx2
• determine if the non-qt version is still needed, if not, delete it from the manifest

Loving this project! Discovered it the other day and really enjoying it.

For what it's worth, I switched to the Qt AppImage a while ago and it's been working flawlessly with EmulationStation, including remapping controls. The biggest thing for me was that the --nogui option was not working in the non-qt version (known issue).

Plus, the Qt version has per-game configs which is a must have imho, and much better controller support for navigating menus when in-game. So glad your are looking into switching to it.

This is implemented and new issues should be created for problems.
