GR2fork v3.0 MASSIVE Performance boosts, crash fixes, 4k support, initial Steam Deck support, and Gravity Rush Remastered Support

Hello everyone, this is the third and biggest release of ShadPS4 (PS4 emulator) GR2fork since launch. It aims to fix the remaining issues with the game while adding more features. Thank you for your patience and if you can please support me by buying me a kofi.

  • refactored gpucomm thread from a monolithic design to a dual core design to ease single threaded bottleneck (30% performance boost).
  • added cpu affinity logic to pin and isolate gpucomm threads to specific cores to get the best single core performance possible.
  • decreased cpu power draw by around 20% by using idle-detection + sleep for the GpuComm dispatcher loop.
  • added Intel specific peformance patches in cpu_patches by relocating the illegal-instruction traps firing in the GR2 eboot.bin.
  • added Intel P+E core detection when gpucomm pinning occurs so P cores are favored over E cores.
  • added more crash hotfixes across gameplay from texture bombs.
  • patched errors in imgui code that was causing silent crashes and automatic window exits.
  • added more rigorous diagnostics to crashes in crash handler.
  • created custom GR2Launcher to work with GR2fork that adds many exclusive settings and features for easy access in the gui without ever having to touch a config file.
  • added steam deck preset in launcher settings to automatically choose the best settings for its hardware.
  • added support from 540p up to 8k in resolution patches
  • added support for Gravity Rush Remastered. Added toggles for br cache and lru cache for fixing flickering or other graphical anomalies in either game if encountered.
  • Merged the double controller input detection fix from the mainline build.
  • added many more input mapping settings in GR2Launcher so that touchpad swipes can be emulated and mapped to any button whether it be on touchscreen, touchpad, controller, or keyboard, which is important for switching between different shifting styles.

NHL 24 Crash on startup code 0xc0000005 at 0x800dcbbce

Hi,

first time trying shadPS4, followed this tutorial to set it up. Tried downloading my first game (NHL 24 and its 1.6 update). The game shows up on my list of games on the emulator but when I try to run it I get an instant crash.

What I see in the bottom logs is:

[Kernel.Fs] <Error> (Unknown(Registered)) file_system.cpp:714 sceKernelStat: error = 2

[Debug] <Critical> (Unknown(Registered)) signals.cpp:63 SignalHandler: Unhandled Exception code 0xc0000005 at 0x800dcbbce

Any help is appreciated

How to get 1440 in Bloodborne on Bazzite

Hi! I'm using ShadPS4 Pre-release (Nightly build) on Bazzite 44.20260511 to run Bloodborne 1.09. It works fine - stable 60fps with occasional vertex explosions. But I can't use resolution patch higher than 1080 - game crashes on start. My hardware: CPU AMD 9600X, RAM32GB, GPU RX 9070 XT 16GB. There are multiple errors, I suspect this one is causing the crash: [Kernel.Vmm] <Error> (Game:Main) memory.cpp:261 Allocate: Unable to find free direct memory area: size = 0xf7000000. Any idea how to make it work, please? Thank you.

Driveclub crashes when I try to start the game, even though I've followed all the recommendations I found.

ShadPs4 v0.12.0

I'm using the version above the emulator with shadps4plus so I can install PKG games.

I saw a video saying I should put the system_modules in the sys_modules folder, then saying to update the game, saying to change a variable "readbacks" to true in the config.toml file settings, but it still crashes...

Any solution?

Setup:
RX 9070 XT
R7 7700
32Gb

Only 0.4.0 is working for me but it is very old and have no sound.

Literally every other version of ShadPS4 (including Diegolix's) are giving the same error while launching Bloodborne: [Debug] <Critical> (shadPS4:Main) pthread.cpp:288 posix_pthread_create_name_np: Assertion Failed!

Are there any ideas on how to fix the error?

And what is so different in 0.4.0 that is making it to work?

PC specs: Ryzen 5700X + RTX 3080 + 32GB RAM.

I tried literally everything google recommended. C++ runtimes are up to date, windows defender is turned off, tried to install everything on same disc, tried to launch the game from a shortcut. Absolutely nothing helps. But 0.4.0 is launching with no issues. I'am losing my mind...
