Quite a few real games run. Quite a few don't. See the Game compatibility list for currently tracked games, and feel free to contribute your own updates, screenshots, and information there following the existing conventions.
The goal of this project is to experiment, research, and educate on the topic of emulation of modern devices and operating systems. It is not for enabling illegal activity. All information is obtained via reverse engineering of legally purchased devices and games and information made public on the internet (you'd be surprised what's indexed on Google...).
See the Quickstart page.
See building.md for setup and information about the
xb script. When writing code, check the style guide
and be sure to run clang-format!
Have some spare time, know advanced C++, and want to write an emulator? Contribute! There's a ton of work that needs to be done, a lot of which is wide open greenfield fun.
For general rules and guidelines please see CONTRIBUTING.md.
Fixes and optimizations are always welcome (please!), but in addition to that there are some major work areas still untouched:
- Help work through missing functionality/bugs in games
- Reduce the size of Xenia's huge log files
- Skilled with Linux? A strong contributor is needed to help with porting
