Avocado - Linux
Despite this emulator being in early development, some 3D games can run. Game compatibility list
Currently audio is hard synced to NTSC (60Hz) (running PAL games will make audio stutter). The timer implementation does not function properly (games fail to boot or run at wrong speed). Many games won't boot or crash shortly after booting.
Running
Avocado requires the BIOS from real console in the
data/bios
directory. (useFile->Open Avocado directory
to locate the directory on your system) Selection of a BIOS rom will be required on the first run. The rom can be changed underOptions->BIOS
or by modifying the config.json file.To load a
.cue/.bin/.img/.chd/.ecm
or.exe/.psexe/.psf/.minipsf
file just drag and drop it.PAL games with LibCrypt protection need additional subchannel info - download proper file
