DobieStation

A young PS2 emulator with plans for an optimized Android port, as well as a fast, accurate, and easy-to-use PC port.

A large portion of the PS2's library can boot or get to menus. Some titles can even go in-game, including high-profile ones such as Final Fantasy X and Shadow of the Colossus. Not intended for general use.

Compiling

DobieStation uses Qt 5 and supports qmake and CMake.

Building with qmake

cd DobieStation/DobieStation
qmake DobieStation.pro
make

Building with CMake

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make

Building with Visual Studio

Dobiestation is known to compile on 2015 and 2017.

Before opening Visual Studio, you must set the QTDIR environment variable to your 64 bit QT install. For example on Visual Studio 2017: C:\path\to\qt\5.12.1\msvc2017_64

Once the variable is set open DobieStation\DobieStation.sln in Visual Studio.

Using the Emulator

DobieStation requires a copy of the PS2 BIOS, which must be dumped from your PS2.

The various command line options are as follows:

-b [BIOS file] - Takes the form of /path/to/bios.bin. Required for booting DobieStation.
-f [file] (optional) - The ELF or ISO that DobieStation loads. Takes the form of /path/to/game.iso or /path/to/homebrew.elf.
-s (optional) - Skip the BIOS boot animation when starting DobieStation with an ISO/ELF loaded.

The key bindings are as follows:
