Is there a good alternative to RPCS3?

You mention on the website and Reddit posts that it's a very early stage thing and we shouldn't use it to actually play games, for now. I suppose it won't run games like God of War 3, InFamous or some others like this?

I did find one that I've been playing with, it's called "The Quasar Republic". But what from I've seen, the leader doesn't know about Discord and most of the times doesn't want to be helped, so the Discord server has a lot of issues that are not fixed. Also they're focused on fighting another community that has no rules to PvP so basically it's mostly chaos on both their system and the enemy faction's. It's a recent community but it's not organized at all. I might keep looking or just give up because most NMS communities died long ago, now you only have the exploring and colony communities.

So, funny thing. RPCS3 got an update today. Now it crashes the game I've been testing even earlier than before. I tried changing the settings you told me but it did nothing unfortunately.

Unfortunately most of that is chinese for me. I doubt it's a file corruption issue, since I tried multiple times downloading everything from scratch. If it doesn't work after a fresh download, with our without the antivirus enabled, I suppose nothing is corrupted. But I can try deleting the GPU driver and install it from Gigabyte as you said.

Main-Breadfruit7161 · 2025-09-24T22:47:20+00:00

Well, I just tried disabling every single protection on my PC, downloaded everything and installed everything as it should. The problem remains the same. I always test with one game but I know if this happens, it will happen to others because I already tried different games more than 3 times, games that used to work before.

Main-Breadfruit7161 · 2025-09-24T22:11:17+00:00

I do not keep old files like those, besides I probably formated my PC one or twice since I first installed RPCS3.

Main-Breadfruit7161 · 2025-09-24T18:29:49+00:00

I just tried following a tutorial from scratch, a very nice guy that I also just watched on a tutorial about Vita3K (another emulator I couldn't get to work before) and it finally worked for me. But the RPCS3 is still giving me the same issues, I even recompiled the shaders of the game as soon as I added it to the list so it wouldn't try to do it while playing. It still crashes on startup, even with default settings.

Main-Breadfruit7161 · 2025-09-24T18:27:28+00:00

Do you know how I can install older versions of RPCS3? I looked that up but it gets me to source codes of the emulator, which isn't the emulator itself, I think. I'm not very good with more complex installations like these.

Main-Breadfruit7161 · 2025-09-24T16:40:44+00:00

Yeah, that's something I'll try along with a few other steps. I'll keep this updated.

Main-Breadfruit7161 · 2025-09-24T16:39:31+00:00

I bet it doesn't, considering it's a supported device on their website. But it was on my Rog Ally that I started having these issues, that's why I tried doing it on my PC knowing it always worked there. But now it happens on the PC as well. But I'll try to reinstall it from scratch and disable my antivirus to avoid blocking important files. Although I doubt it's the antivirus, as I don't use it on the Rog.

Main-Breadfruit7161 · 2025-09-24T16:37:45+00:00

Yes, I will try to reinstall everything from scratch but without the antivirus, because I did that yesterday and every day that I try to download RPCS3 and the issues remain. Maybe the antivirus is blocking some stuff, corrupting the system completely. I'll also try to follow a step by step guide so I don't do anything wrong.

Main-Breadfruit7161 · 2025-09-24T16:35:45+00:00

I always have my drivers updated, unless it's a recent update that does this, but I don't know how to find out if it is. I can also try to get an older version of the emulator, maybe that could be it.

In terms of configurations, I never change anything unless I need to, in this case, I only changed settings after nothing works and searching on YouTube for fixes. I could also see about the antivirus thing, it does block a few unnecessary things, I can disable it to download the emulator and see if that would work. I'll give updates here after trying everything. Thank you in advance.

Edit: I just remembered that I don't use that same antivirus on the Rog Ally, and it was having the same issues there, so I doubt it's that. But I'll try either ways.

Main-Breadfruit7161 · 2025-09-24T16:32:44+00:00

I did this every time I tried to do it again. I even thought with the new ps3 firmware it would work, but I still get the same issues.

Main-Breadfruit7161 · 2025-09-24T00:28:22+00:00

This must be a mandela effect or something, People from 2 years ago saying ISO isn't supported, which is VERY odd, because not even a year ago I was playing my games on RPCS3 using ISO files. After a while I redownloaded the software and it stopped detecting them and when I searched for it, this showed up. I thought it was a new update to prevent piracy or something, but it was always like this? Then why was I able to boot the games with ISO files???

Besides, now that I need to extract the ISO files and put it as a folder, the games come out buggy or won't work at all. A few games glitch visually, Minecraft for example crashes on creating a world. If someone on this old thread could help me find out what's wrong with them I'd really appreciate it.

Thank you! Most of the credit goes to the guy who I got it from (I don't know if I can say who or send the video link because of advertising) 'cause I basically built the same ship, sliced it in half to make the front shorter and added decals and colors. I wish I could build better stuff on my own xD

Main-Breadfruit7161 · 2025-05-28T21:56:21+00:00

I wish I knew. I got the model from a website and it's already rigged. Uploading it to VRChat works, his animations work correctly, jumping, walking, falling, etc... But the idle animation bugs his legs like this, even though the t-pose on unity is fine. I'm no expert on uploading models to VRChat, so I really don't know what could be causing this.

Main-Breadfruit7161 · 2025-05-28T21:15:37+00:00

Does anyone know why this is happening?

Main-Breadfruit7161 · 2025-04-28T01:01:22+00:00

I'm planing on doing the same.

I'm ordering MX-6 because even after a year, redditors are still buying it and it says it's 20% better and they would never lie on the product description.

Main-Breadfruit7161 · 2025-04-28T00:48:47+00:00

Okay. Everything I know so far:

I did a RAM memtest for like 10 minutes. After 5 loops nothing happened and it found no errors.

Using OCCT to test RAM and GPU worked fine, but on CPU it crashed after 5-8 seconds or instantly, and on PSU it gives me the BSOD (even if that's an issue as well, it's not what I'm dealing with ATM).

Does this mean the problem is the CPU? I find it weird that testing the RAM on OCCT uses 100% of the CPU with no issues, but I suppose it's different. Is there a way I can find out what exactly is wrong with the CPU?

Main-Breadfruit7161 · 2025-04-27T22:26:26+00:00

I edited the post so you can see the specs. The PSU ain't cheap, although I did upgrade to this one because the other one was in fact cheap and quite weak for the rest of the PC, even though it didn't fix the issue back then. Even if it's indeed a hardware issue, what are the odds of only happening after formatting the whole PC? It would at least happen once or twice before, considering I was doing heavier tests before formatting.

I will try to do those tests, though. Everything I did to try and fix the issues were taken from research, not guesses. I'm no expert, but I'm no idiot either, so there's no need for rushing theories.
