>>381343304
A PS3 is dirt cheap these days
How poor are you?

coolio. I know it's probably not even viable but is there any sort of online fuckery being worked on? Or will I have to manually shift all my world tendencies.

>>381343579
>>381343639
Hes right tho, it never runs like that.
Maybe in that one area of the game (i think it was the swamp?)

Anyways im happy this is happening, ill be able to talk about demon souls without faggots saying its the worst game ever and only "good" because its exclusive

>>381343579
Wtf

You can't say cuck anymore?

>>381343304
Still looks really fucked up and not close to PS3, but I hope you guys get to play it properly soon. One of my favorite games ever, best Souls game easily.

>>381343769
why play 720p 25-30 fps when I can play a higher res, higher framerate version?

>>381343769
Thanks for betatesting

>buying a PS3 now that it's a dead console
Seems a bit too late desu.

>>381343774
Dolphin managed, so hopefully that crazy Russian bastard behind RPCS3 can manage something similar

>>381343304
Hory Shieet. They are going all in on Vulkan. Me likey. This game will run great.

Looking forward to replaying it when it runs well enough. Looks like it still has a long way to go, though. Have a feeling I won't be as patient with grass farming as I used to be.

>>381343941
>higher framerate version
That's not how emulation works.

>>381344113

It is, depending on the game and if animations are tied to framerate.

>>381344216
old havok engine will shit itself at a higher framerate most likely

>>381343639
No it didn't, it ran at 30 fps with some drops in zones/situations, like most console games.

In fact, Demon's Souls was noted for running much better than Dark Souls, DaS was a nightmare on ps3/360, especially blight town, it was like 15 fps just walking around, with dips into single digit when it got really bad.

That video in OP is running at half the average frame rate it does on ps3. Make another thread when it runs at a stable 30 fps with no audio issues.

>>381343846
it runs like that if you break random objects and cause the physics engine to shit itself ie boxes in 1-1 and mining stuff in 2-1.

>>381343304
PC ALWAYS WINS BABY!

NOW WE JUST HAVE TO WAIT ANOTHER DECADE FOR BLOODBORNE

>>381344320
Dark Souls PC runs pretty well at 60 fps with only minor quibbles that you can avoid or work around

I bought this when I was living with someone who owned a ps3 and never ended up playing it before we moved to different places. Will be nice to finally play more than the first zone.

>>381344542
>minor quibbles
like going down ladders and falling through the world, right? That's minor.

>>381343769
pc-fag poor.

>>381344542
it sure works well, let me just sit at this fire, or slide down this ladder or randomly fall through the ground everywhere because the engine itself wasn't meant to run at this speed.

>2009 game
AT LEAST PC BROS

And it only took about 8 years, good job! Maybe you'll get bloodborne in 2025!

>>381344680
>>381344786

No thanks.

Real question since I'm an actual retard.

If PC is so much more powerful than consoles, how come it's taking so long to get functional PS3/360 emulators?

>>381343304
Looks about as good as Red Dead on PC.

Maybe next time pc cucks

>>381343304
Just 8 more years of development till it's playable, and maybe then you can start to get hyped for Bloodborne emulation.

>>381344971
I'm adult. Ask any question.

>>381345328
They have to reverse engineer the consoles to figure out how to get the games to run on a different OS with different instructions

I've never played Demon's Souls and I'd love to see it on PC but that shit looks like garbage right now.

>>381345328
Different architecture that needs to be emulated, which means they're basically just reverse engineering the whole thing and it will require more powerful hardware than the console in itself.

>>381343304
Literally can't see a difference.

>>381345328
Because emulation has little to do with the power of the device, in all honesty, and more with knowing the hardware and architecture and makeup of the system they're trying to emulate. Older systems with no bios, no OS, no intermingling assets like that are basically just pop in, load game, go. gen 7 (and original xbox) are notoriously complex.

the wii u got an emu shat out because their design docs were leaked significantly reducing the difficulty of reverse engineering some of the more difficult elements of the system.

The N64 is a fucking disaster, hardware wise, which is a good reason as to why we've never seen a real solid perfect emulator for it, despite the PS1 being almost flawless and perhaps even reaching a point where we can improve upon it, in emulation. The only team that really got anywhere with n64 emulation (pj64) were assholes who tried to charge money for it, saying they didn't want piracy to become widespread. Their shit was also all closed away, and now that most of the team quit or turned 15, they abandoned the project and we'll likely never see a fully functioning, 100% perfect N64 emulator, the time has simply passed.

>>381345650
Don't bully Demon's Souls! It's from 2009, baka!

>>381344971
There's a lot more than one game

>>381344952
>>381344786
>>381344680
Everyone seems to forget the bonfire issue can be avoided by waiting a second or two after reviving to human, and the ladder glitch is so rare I've never seen it in several hundreds of hours of gameplay with DSFix

Not to say it isn't a problem to have those issues at all, but /v/ seems to love exaggerating the issues as though they're widespread constants when they're really not, and if you do forget to wait a second for the bonfire you can quit out and reload back in less than 10 seconds so it's hardly even worth mentioning.

lmao no, and who gives a fuck anymore. this fucking game has been free on PS so many fucking times now. and a working PS3 itself costs $40. I don't really see the point of waiting so many years just to play at an even worse framerate than usual

>>381343903

Just captilize the c

I.e sonyCuck

>>381346060
People are completely misrepresenting the issues unlocking FPS in Dark Souls 1 actually has, as usual.

The ladder thing only happens with one particular ladder, sometimes. Softlocking at bonfires when going human only happens rarely and if you mash through the menu too quickly, and can be avoided completely by just hitting backspace before sitting down to cap the FPS, and then again after standing up to uncap again.
The slight reduction in jump distance also doesn't make any of the jumps in the game impossible like people claim, either.

>>381346159
>>A game which has sequels that are all around better
HERE WE FUCKING GO

>all those buttmad sonybros ITT
I have a PS3, still would much prefer to replay it at 4x native res with no drops.
Another year or two and we'll be there.

Why is it called 4k instead of 2k? Like, what's gonna happen when we actually hit 4k res?

>>381346847
Because it has 4x the pixels of the previous most common HDTV standard?

>>381346905
What does the k stand for

>>381346750
>Implying I want less people to play a game I like
Fuck off 12 year old

>>381346987
the k stands for resolution, and since forever, people traditionally reference the smaller end as it's more indicative of the actual size. But for some reason they're calling 2160p 4k instead. It's baffling. Cause when there's another jump to an actual 4k resolution they're gonna be without something to call it besides 8k and that'll sound fucking dumb.

>>381346987
4000, as in the horizontal resolution is ~4000 pixels.
Also 4x as in 4 times the 1080p pixel count.

It's 4k because it's approximately 4000 pixels horizontal resolution, because "4k" is a lot more marketable than "2160p".

>>381347151
k stands for thousand dumbass

You just want them to play it on a Sony® approved system

>>381345328
You have to recreate hardware that you don't know how it works, and very miniscule details can make a world of difference. For example there's CPU cycle speed: the time it take for a CPU to perform the most basic of operations, imagine your ctandard PC CPU does it in 1 nanosecond, while PS3's Cell does it in 1.1 nanosecond, how would you work around that? Problems like these mount up in thousands, and devs don't even know the actual stats of the hardware, they have to find it through trial and error. Obviously the more complex machine you want to emulate, the amount of figuring out increases exponentially. Not even SNES is emulated perfectly yet, so you can imagine how much harder it is to emulate a PS3.

If this Demons Souls emulator is ever finished be prepared for a shitstorm of hate threads calling the game bad and the community being ruined

I look forward to emulating most PS3 games competently in 2025

>>381345328
Because you need to reverse engineer the hardware. If you use official documentation you're breaking a contract. Also emulation will always be more slow than native code.

>>381347454
If you quit out of the bonfire menu too fast after reviving to human then you can get stuck just sitting there with the only option bring to quit out and reload the save, after reloading you're fine but it is kind of annoying if you forget about it and it happens several times in a row I guess.

That is not true at all. The game does stutter a bit of you break shit, but not like that. This still needs a good bit of work.

is this a port? or ps3 emulation?

That's pretty impressive. As always the thread is filled with cucked naysayers.

>>381344680
I played hundreds of hours of DaS1 on PC with the resolution/framerate mod and never one experienced one of the bugs i've heard about. So sure, while it no doubt CAN happen, it definitely isn't something that is consistent enough to give a shit about.

Try Horizon Zero Dawn, it's great. SJW pandering gets a bit on the nose, when you notice that every strong and influential person in game is a woman, an ethnic minority or a woman of ethnic minority, but gameplay, story, sandbox are all exceptionally well done. Also I quite liked Infamous: Second son, not as good as first two games and protagonist is annoying, but still entertaining.

>>381351135
It's the RPCS3 emulator, which is progressing very nicely considering the complexity of the system. It's going much better than the one for xbox 360, Xenia.

All it takes is quick search on youtube to see how that's not true at all. Demon's Souls was pretty well optimized for the PS3 and ran almost perfectly outside of the swamp area and when you broke boxes and other stuff, the OP video is nothing like that.

I have over 1tb of games for PS3...

So, how do i demon souls on PC?
Get emulator, download DS iso from somewhere and that its?. No pluging hell? Kinda want to try demon souls

>>381358228
Both statements are completely false.

>>381359589
Wait a few years.
At this point it will probably not be completable due to glitches.

man demon's souls looked as washed out as das 3 does

this is running way better than it does on my PS3

I don't see why people complain about PS2 emulation. All you have to do is read the wiki, apply these custom patches then change your settings for every different game you play. It's perfectly playable at 10fps with crackling audio and texture issues.

>>381343304
>Framerate seems to be on par with PS3:

Demon's Souls was never the game about the meme framerate. I don't think I even remember the framerate being an issue in any of the worlds. That was Dark Souls 1, dumbass PC faggot.

>>381343304
That's awesome. I played it at release and that's almost comparable fps. 25 is playable even if PS3 never dipped to the 12 range like in that video.

More people should play this game and if PC is their own gaming device this is a great opportunity.

>>381360674

Let's not pretend it doesn't. Some of the most shaky hle hackfest shit in the scene and the devs can't even seem to manage keeping the game wiki up for people to input the highly specific settings needed for every game due to how awful their coding is.

Steam sale is coming, I don't care about ancient games.

It's impressive that they're already emulating such complex systems with current hardware. Emulation is interesting and if you bring your consolewars bullshit into this you're completely missing the point.

>>381359972
well then you're ps3 is gimped m8

>>381343941

Because right now you litteraly can't.

>>381360874
>apply these custom patches
Wrong, there are no patches to apply.

>>381343941
You can rarely raise the framerate of console games through emulation. 9 times out of 10 the games were locked to 30 and if you try to make them faster they speed up.

>>381351103
Nioh is great

>>381344971
Only a child would say something like that.

>>381351952
Why do i always hear people talking about how shit the ps2 emulation is? I have pcsx2 and have emulated tons of games and they all work great, didnt even have to tweak settings.
I only had problems with fatal frame because the ghosts were invisible.

Compare ps2 emulation to literally non-existent xbox emulation or dolphin it works ike a charm.
I really dont understand this meme

>>381362061
You can eliminate framerate drops though and get a stable 30fps.

>>381351863
No, how they built the PS2 is pants on head retarted. The only other modern console that's more as inexplicable in it's design is the N64. Sony have never been good at designing hardware, they always have a bunch of weird things in their boxes

I bought ps3 recently for 40$ just for DeS and MGS4 and its fuckin great even on ps3

>>381344216
They said the samething about DaS1 and some guy ended up shitting out a fix for it. I have hope.

>>381362581
nice filter, faggot

>>381362649

Yeah, a "fix"

>>381359361
M8, quit the damage control. It ran exactly like the ds PC port, that is usually fine but barely playable in a couple areas. That being said emulation using a Vulkan API has the potential to be way better than anything Sony can shit out

>>381362813
What would be the issue with doing something similar to this game?

>>381360953
This is correct. PS2 is shitty because they go for stupid arbitrary scores that someone thought up instead of accuracy and optimization

>>381362581
How do you play sideways, though? Your neck must hurt like hell.

1. Online in Souls games was a mistake.
2. It is possible to emulate networking and connect to official servers on emulators. RPCS3 hasn't done this yet, but there's no reason they can't eventually, Dolphin and PCSX2 did.

when MGS4 on pc?

Emulation is a bless for gaming.

inb4 pcfags be all DEMONS SOULS WAS THE BEST ALL ALONG TRULY A CULT CLASSIC

>>381363578
>1. Online in Souls games was a mistake.

Somewhat agree. Eventually the servers will go down and the games won't be properly preserved as a result. The very nature of dwindling online communities itself is bad enough. The concept of being invaded by other players is cool, but when you mostly play for PvE and it's just endless twink after twink or even just over the top tryhards exploiting whatever the current meta is it just gets really tiring. Pining over min/maxing stats shouldn't be what an immersive game like this is about.

>>381364017

That's the point of ghosts.

Sony pups are mad that their game is getting emulated so they want PC Chads to buy a PS3 for damage control.

>>381345328
Different architectures and ISAs.

Think of a cpu like it is a calculator(which it is actually) with some math operations in it.

Lets say you have cpu 1 that only have the addition(ADD) operation in it. And lets say that you have a cpu 2 that has the 4 basic operations (addition,subtraction,multiplication,and division).


How do you emulate the cpu 2 behaviour with the cpu 1? It doesn't know how to do multiplications or divisions for example!

What emulation does is, it simulates the operations(instructions) from cpu 2 with the instructions that cpu 1 have.

So if you have game made for cpu 2 that has a call for multiplication(let say 3 times 3) in its code and you want to emulate it on cpu 1, you need to call ADD 3 times(assuming initial value = 0)

This brings two problems:

1)When does this translation happens?

The answer is in real time. Most emulators use what they call "just in time compilation" which basically means that the code is translated on the fly and while you play, lets say a a gamecube game on dolphin,the emulator is translating the power pc instructions to x86 instruction at the same time.This means that PC waste time doing things the original gamecube wouldn't. This is the main reason why you need a more powerful PC than the original console to run the emulator properly.

2) What instructions do we need to emulate? do we know how they work?

Most consoles use modified architectures that are not that well documented,which means the guys behind projects like dolphin have to reverse Engineer those instruction in order to do a proper translation.That takes a lot of time and testing.Specially because those architectures may have lots of instructions.

And that is exactly the problem with PS3. It has some experimental power pc based archtecture that not even the game developers had proper documentation when it first came out.Reverse engineering that must be painful.

>>381360953
>. Some of the most shaky hle hackfest shit in the scene and the devs can't even seem to manage keeping the game wiki up for people to input the highly specific settings needed for every game due to how awful their coding is.

And people complain about dolphin dev for caring about precision and properly emulate the console without hacks.

It's a better long term investment for sure.

>>381365359
Dolphin is a stuttery mess with audio issues to this day. PCSX2 is better.

NIGGA?

SNES you can't really emulate games like Yoshi's island which has added hardware to the cartridge, there are a few other snes games like that.

The GBA has some game where you need to physically collect sunlight to recharge your weapon.

A few genisis games won't run properly because they abused a glitch in the genisis hardware to get a desired effect, the emulators don't have the glitch so the games don't run properly. Though I imagine that there might be a work around for those games.

>>381366179
>The GBA has some game where you need to physically collect sunlight to recharge your weapon.

Well, while this is impossible to emulate properly, some emulators have an inbuilt sunlight value that you can activate.

>>381366179
>SNES you can't really emulate games like Yoshi's island which has added hardware to the cartridge
Yes you can. The SuperFX2 has been cycle accurately emulated for years.
>The GBA has some game where you need to physically collect sunlight to recharge your weapon.
Solar sensor is emulated.
