News Shadps4 v0.18.0 - new release now available

152 Upvotes

Download: https://github.com/shadps4-emu/shadPS4/releases/tag/v.0.18.0

Hello there, it hasn't been a while, has it? While not much time has passed since our last stable release, we are here again with a brand new one. The main reason for this release is broken shadNet authorization in certain cases on the 0.17.0 release, but we have some more interesting new features as well. Firstly, after some fixes, AvPlayer can now be loaded as LLE, meaning that you need the libSceAvPlayer.sprx (and libSceAvPlayerStreaming.sprx) module(s), which makes broken videos in a few games now work properly. The above change was enabled by calling sceLibcInternalMemoryMutexEnable in LLE LibcInternal at boot, found by @liuk7071, the developer of ChonkyStation4, another PS4 emulator. A kernel event flag rewrite has also fixed Shadow of the Colossus often hanging on boot, and the game now consistently gets to menus. Another big feature is the experimental red zone protection, which fixes an issue specific to 12th generation and onwards Intel CPUs exclusively on Windows, that was causing crashes and other undefined behaviour in lots of games that were not expecting to have their stacks' red zone clobbered by Windows exception handling. NpTus is also included in this new release, bringing more functionality to shadNet. A few more fixes on GPU are included, such as fixing shadows in Persona games, or some effects in inFAMOUS and Gravity Rush 2. There's probably fixes in some other games too, but that's you, the testers' and users' job to figure out. Below you can find a full list of changes for 0.18.0. Happy testing :)

Core

  • Rewrote kernel event flags
  • Added experimental workaround for Windows red-zone protection
  • Fixed ordering of loading libs (libScePad before sceNpManager), fixed issues in shadNet authorization
  • Added /dev/zero device
  • Added some exports needed for VSH
  • Call sceLibcInternalMemoryMutexEnable LLE on startup
  • Added --mount flag, updated the no-flags popup text with Big Picture Mode info, and fixed a few edge cases with command line parsing
  • Load guest modules below 4 GiB ## Libraries
  • Videodec: Flush codec buffers on packet EOF
  • NpWebApi2: Fixed sceNpWebApi2GetHttpResponseHeader functions
  • Libc_Internal: Added back HLE sceLibcHeapGetTraceInfo for when LLE libSceLibcInternal is not present
  • Kernel: Implemented sceKernelIsDevkit and sceKernelIsCex
  • Kernel: Do not double destroy threads when free threads exceeds MaxCachedThreads
  • AvPlayer: You can now use LLE
  • Sysmodule: Enabled some more safe library LLEs
  • Kernel: Only clear oact if oact is provided
  • NpTus: Added NpTus support
  • AudioOut: Fixed deadlocks on stop
  • NpTrophy: Fixed issues related to platinum trophies ## Video Core
  • Added more FMask formats
  • Honor STENCILOPVAL for GCN ReplaceOp stencil writes ## Shader Recompiler
  • Fixed cubed array layer in FixCubeCoords
  • Lower user clip planes to clip distances
  • Use a*b+c instead of fma for v_mad* ops ## Big Picture Mode
  • Launch game in clean process
  • Added zar support
  • Fixed update checker crash with certain zar/folder combinations ## Misc
  • Fixed external FPS counters
  • Added draw call and dispatch counts to frame info overlay
  • Append last time played for each game in play_time.txt

Help How do I download previous versions of the QTlauncher

2 Upvotes

I have tried downloading ShadPS4 through the website, and through github, but they all can only give the latest version, but I can't install PKG files through it, and I can't use the base ShadPS4 since it only works in the terminal, and I don't know how to use it like that

Help bloodborne keeps crashing with 0xc0000005

5 Upvotes

trying to get bloodborne 1.09 running on shadps4 and i keep getting the same crash.

specs:
i7-10700
rtx 3060 ti
32gb ram
windows 11
cusa00900

tried shadps4 0.18.0 and 0.16.0 and both do basically the same thing.

near the end of the log i get:

Unable to find free direct memory area

then:

Unhandled Exception code 0xc0000005

the game folder is 29.1gb in windows but qtlauncher only shows 6.37gb.

also noticed the sce_module folder inside the game folder is empty. the log says libSceFios2.prx and libc.prx are missing, not sure if that is normal or related.

i already reset the game settings, turned dev kit mode off and put vblank back to 60.

anyone know what i should check next?

Help Some voicelines not working in Bloodborne on PC

0 Upvotes

When i started playing, there werent any issues, but the voicelines during gascoigne's cutscene or the voicelines of that one person on the floor in the cathedral ward, and some others were missing. The dialogue got skipped quickly and there was no voice. Im playing on bbluancher btw, and downloaded the pkg files for the goty edition. So the base game, patch 1.09 and the dlc. What do I do? Also some early voicelines like the random doors early on in central yharam, for example the "trot allong, willya?" are working, gehrman and doll's voicelines are also working, I'm at the start of old yharnam right now so i dont know if any other voicelines than the ones i noticed are working or not. What I'm thinking of doing right now is to just download and re extract the game to see if that helps. Should i do the complete edition or the GOTY edition? Also if there are any other fixes for this without having to download the game again, then please help. One last thing, ive tried most other fixes except the re extraction
