RetroSync: your emulator saves, everywhere – PC ↔ PS5 sync, backup and remote power-on If you have a jailbroken PS5 and ever wished your RetroArch and PS2 emulator settings and saves just stayed in sync with your PC setup, RetroSync is for you. Start a game on your PS5, pick it up later on your PC (or the other way around) without ever copying saves by hand. RetroSync started as a small tool to sync PS2 memory cards between PCSX2 on PC and PS5SX2 on the PS5. Since then it has grown into a full RetroArch sync (saves and config, Steam RetroArch ↔ PS5 RetroArch) and it can now turn the PS5 on from rest mode and put it back to rest, straight from your PC. Pairing is automatic: RetroSync sends a tiny one-shot payload that reads what it needs on the console and exits, so you never have to type your PSN account ID anywhere. Backup built in. RetroSync can mirror your whole PS5 RetroArch folder (ROMs excluded) to your PC. After the first full copy only changed files are transferred, so if a store update or a mistake breaks something, you can always roll back. Made to be safe and simple. Every sync shows a preview of exactly what will change, and nothing is written until you confirm. The newest version of each file wins, conflicts are flagged instead of overwritten, and anything replaced is backed up first. There's also a dry-run mode if you just want to look. Tested with: RetroArch (Steam on PC, homebrew port on PS5) and PCSX2 ↔ PS5SX2 for PS2. Other emulators or ports haven't been tested and aren't supported for now. Coming next: Dolphin save support (including Porpoise, the Dolphin port for PS5), plus full PS4/PS5 game save backups, which I'm currently testing. Big thanks to phantomptr, the developer of PS5Upload: their work gave me a lot of great ideas, and what that tool makes possible on the PS5 is genuinely impressive. Go check it out if you haven't.

[PS5SX2] You can now insert a PS2 disc into your PS5 and play directly from it. No dumping required! 20+ years later, we're bringing back the feeling of putting a disc into your console and just playing. PS5SX2 2.10 now supports playing original PS2 discs directly from the PS5's disc drive. No dumping. No copying games to your storage. No waiting. Just insert your PS2 disc, and the game appears on your PS5SX2 shelf almost instantly, ready to play. I've also added integration with the XMB. A tile is automatically created for the inserted game, letting you launch it directly from the XMB. The game's cover art is loaded automatically as well, and the unsupported disc tile is hijacked to provide this experience. We've spent countless hours working on making this experience feel as close to native console support as possible. And now it's finally here. 🎬 Watch the cinematic trailer: x.com 💿 Download the latest release: github.com/Swordpdf/PS5SX2/releases/latest 💬 Join our Discord: discord.gg ☕ Support development: ko-fi.com PS5SX2 is open-source, and we're developing it in our free time.

PS5SX2 w/Disc Support Loads Max Payne a bit too slow from the game disc, but works! Backing it up to storage might be a better option? Swordpdf/PS5SX2

PS5SX2 2.10 Released — No More Dumping First? Direct PS2 Disc Launching! PS5SX2 now lets you launch physical PS2 DVDs directly from the PS5 home screen, without opening the emulator first! Gameplay Showcase 💿 What's New - Home screen game tiles — Insert a PS2 DVD to display its game name and cover. - Play directly from disc — Launch and play straight from the DVD, just like a real PS2. - Copy to storage — Alternatively Dump the disc first for faster loading and play without keeping it inserted. - Smart launching — If the game is already copied, the tile launches the stored version. - Reload PS2 Disc — Refresh disc detection if a tile fails to appear or launch. ⚠️ Important Notes - Requires ShadowMount+ and the updated PS5SXHelper.elf helper. - Load ShadowMount+ first, then the helper, after every restart. - You need your own PS2 BIOS in /data/PCSX2/bios. - The PS5 drive reads PS2 DVDs, not PS2 CDs. - Remove the disc before shutting down; leaving it inserted may cause a kernel panic. - This feature is new and has limited testing so far. Payload change: Versions 2.01–2.03's ps5sx2-aio.elf and ps5sx2-bot.elf aren't included. Use PS5SX2Installer.elf and PS5SXHelper.elf instead.
