telyn/ps2dev repository overview

⁠ps2dev

Main PS2 Repo for building the whole PS2 Development environment in your local machine.

This program will automatically build and install the whole a compiler and other tools used in the creation of homebrew software for the Sony PlayStation® 2 videogame system.

⁠What these scripts do

These scripts download (git clone) and install:

• ps2toolchain⁠
• ps2sdk⁠
• gsKit⁠
• ps2-packer⁠
• ps2client⁠

⁠Requirements

1. Install gcc/clang, make, patch, git, texinfo wget, zlib and ucl if you don't have those.

2. Add this to your login script (example: ~/.bash_profile)

export PS2DEV=/usr/local/ps2dev
export PS2SDK=$PS2DEV/ps2sdk
export GSKIT=$PS2DEV/gsKit
export PATH=$PATH:$PS2DEV/bin:$PS2DEV/ee/bin:$PS2DEV/iop/bin:$PS2DEV/dvp/bin:$PS2SDK/bin

1. Run build-all.sh

./build-all.sh

⁠Docker generation

This repo also uses CI/CD to create a docker image called ps2dev/ps2dev:latestper change. This is quite useful if you're a developer that want to create/port an application to the PS2. So, you just can go there and compile your project using this docker image.

⁠Extra steps

If you want, you JUST can install the extra dependencies as ps2client and ps2-packer, to achieve this just execute

./build-extra.sh

⁠macOS

If you download the pre-built macOS binaries and get a security error such as "ps2client" cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified., you can remove the quarantine attribute by running:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine path/to/ps2toolchain
