psOff is a closed-source PlayStation 4 emulator (compatibility layer) written in C++20. The project is still in its early stages, and many games may not work properly yet. However, we are continuously improving compatibility and performance. Stay updated via our Discord server and Compatibility Tracker. You can track our progress here.

- Ensure there is no existing issue for your game before posting.
- Issues must be submitted in English. However, screenshots or videos containing non-English text are acceptable.
- Log files are mandatory. Issues without logs will be closed within 24 hours. (Exception: If the game runs perfectly with no issues, log files are optional.)
- Submit issue reports WITHOUT community patches enabled.
- Provide as much information as possible. Detailed information is crucial for resolving issues.
- Log files must be in FileBin format (
*.p7d). Since these files cannot be uploaded directly to GitHub, compress them into a zip, tar, or 7z archive and attach the archive to your issue. - Specifying the game engine in your report is encouraged, if known.
- The game status is updated to "Intro" if the emulator can display at least one intro screen (audio/video or both) or reach the game's main menu in any form.
- The game status is updated to "Ingame" if the emulator can boot into the game's world. Additionally, the game is labeled “beat-request” if it shows stable performance (60+ fps or 30+ fps if the frame rate is limited by the game itself), the player can control the character without issues, and the game does not crash during the reported session.
- The game status is updated to "Playable" if the emulator maintains a stable frame rate, there are no memory leaks or critical graphical bugs, and the player can complete the game from start to finish without significant issues. If the game is infinite, the user should have no problem utilizing all of its core mechanics.
- The report is labeled "input" if it mentions problems with input using any gamepad backend (xinput, sdl, or keyboard) available in the emulator settings.
- The report is labeled "graphics" if there are rendering issues, such as missing game objects, flickering, incorrect colors, or a complete lack of image.
- The report is labeled "hang" if the game freezes and becomes unresponsive to user input.
- The report is labeled "regression" if a new emulator version causes degraded performance, such as graphical rendering issues, missing or distorted sound, input problems, or the game failing to run entirely.
- The report is labeled “need-info” if it is incomplete or the developers request additional information.
