Help How can I play Bloodborne with a Xone joystick?
Do I have to download a mod or something? Cause I've been trying on the controller settings but it doesn't recognize it

Since the emulator is in its early stages and highly experimental, crashes and severe glitches are to be expected. This guide is for people who are curious to test.
At the time of writing, there seem to be more issues with AMD GPU’s in general.

Anyone has a solution for this? As said in the title, apparently the crash is because of "amdvlk64.dll". I have all the drivers up to date, but apparently there is a problem with Vulkan?

i have a i5 12400f and a 4060 ,32gm ddr4 ram i thought it was a vram or gpu issue but both are used only to about 80% so does my cpu im also using win10 and the 0.7.1 version of shadps4 i tried the previous version but had the same problem

I am sorry if this is dumb but I never owned a PS console. Is there a way to acquire the PS4 files to proceed with Bloodborne without having a jailbroken console myself? I looked but found non so I am not sure if it's an absolute requirement.
I would stop looking if that's the case since I don't have one as I said. Thank you.

Despite using all of the appropriate patches, fixes for your use case basis, and whatnot how often would you guys say your game crashes on a daily basis?
Mine crashes about 4-5 times a day :[ Not sure what I'm doing wrong. Vertex explosion fix installed, along with the sfx fix for intel is enabled. Game will apparently crash for the most random reasons after a while even with resolution patches (above 1080p) being turned off.
I'm using the latest version of diego's build on mainbb update channel.

Thank you for all the guides for setting up shadps4 and Bloodborne! I am not a good hunter and leveled up a bit for KOS, so this is my end build. But I really enjoyed it!

Prior to playing bloodborne, my first souls games were elden ring, sekiro and ds3 in that order. But, seeing bloodborne's world made me want to play it. Thanks to all the modders that worked to make it work. You create the reality that sony could never.
My journey in bloodborne was incredible, I had an almost easy time with most bosses, but mann the orphan and ludwig totally obliterated me. I think I had around 70+ deaths on ludwig and orphan 50+, but the adrenaline rush I got from beating those two were nothing short of extraordinary. Even though I have played through DS3 multiple times, the world crafting in bloodborne in my opinion is even better than elden ring. My first time discovering that cathedral ward connects 4 different areas made me realize that this world is something special.
This is undoubtedly miyazaki's magnum opus and shame on sony that they could not/ will not port such a masterpiece and made a profit from it.

I’ve been trying to run ghost of Tsushima on my leigon go and it js crash all the time. Help me plz👏
r/shadps4 • u/huwskie • 1d ago
So I have been having issue where my game will stutter a lot and the framerate won’t stay at a consistent 60. I tried used an fps stabilizer and that hardly helped at all. I then tried 30 fps without the patch to remove input delay but the movement of the camera was bugging out and screen tearing a ton. I discovered that if I turn on motion blur and 60fps patch, I can have a somewhat smoother experience. The problem now is that I drop frames a lot more often and I still have the audio pops. I am not sure why my audio does that. I have an rtx 4060ti 16GB and an i5 9400f 2.60GHz cpu. I don’t believe I should be having frame drops like this to be honest and I’m not sure how to fix it. I don’t have any performance mods so that might be the issue. Please let me know if you know anything.

Hello! Ive been recently playing BB on shadPS4 mostly fine just a few crashes here and there but nothing that has stopped my progress until just now. Every time I "Inspect Mummy" at the advent plaza after the boss fight, my character does the kneeling animation then the game freezes and the emulator closes. After watching a video to see what happens after you inspect mummy, it looks like a small effect plays then it goes to a loading screen. Does anyone know of any possible fixes I can try? Ive tried all the most common things such as trying 30 fps, disabling all patches, and nothing. Always freezes after the kneeling animation.

For those wondering about the performance on older hardware like mine, I'm here to confirm that you can play Bloodborne just fine with my specs or with similar hardware, mine are: i7-4790k (it's not overclocked), RX 580 8GB and 16GB of Ram, I'm playing it on 1080p at a solid 30 fps because my PC can't handle 60 fps with the emulator patch, however, I can get 60 fps just fine using Lossless Scaling from Steam, and that's how I'm playing it currently, I'm playing it at 60 fps and I have a couple of hours in and it's great, I'm using the diegolix29 build.
Not only that, my PC is currently running slower because I undervolted my GPU to get less heat and because my Power Supply isn't that powerful so I want it to be less stressed too, so my GPU is a bit less than the RX 580 right now, and I'm also using 99% of the CPU to get less heat as well, I changed my CPU from 100% to 99% in the power settings, so my CPU is slower and even with my less powerful specs, I'm still playing just fine at 60 fps almost all the time.
I'm still in the first area and fought the 1st optional boss Cleric Beast (Great Bridge), and so far this game is running great with my specs, with some crashes obviously which is a shame, I get like 1 crash around an hour or so, sometimes it doesn't crash in 2 hours, etc... I wished this emulator was more stable, but I couldn't wait any longer and started playing Bloodborne. I don't know if the fps will decrease later on in other maps, but so far in the 1st map I'm playing just fine with 30 fps and using Lossless Scaling to get 60 fps and it's solid, with a few dips here and there, but it gets to 60 fps right after.
I did notice however, that on rare occasions, the game starts to lag, I can't reproduce the issue, it just happens randomly, I'm playing just fine and suddenly I get around 26 fps and the game stays like that and feels sluggish, so with Lossless Scaling I don't have 60 fps anymore, I have like 52 fps. Every time this happens I just close the emulator and start it up again, and then it gets fixed and I can play again for a good while, this issue happens once every 45 minutes or so, sometimes it doesn't happen for hours, it's very weird. I don't know if it's a memory leak, or maybe it's something else, whatever it is, it has nothing to do with my specs since I can just restart the emulator and that specific issue gets fixed for a good while.
I'm currently using 2 mods: SFX intel Fix Particles v2 and Vertex Explosion fix, they are necessary, I don't know if I need to use other mods later on to fix whatever other issue the emulator has but so far, this game works great on my specs apart from those issues I described.

What do I need from nexus to fix it?
r/shadps4 • u/Mahapater • 2d ago
I am using this emulator for the first time and bloodborne is running almost perfectly. I just encountered my first main issue. When I go into the hunters dream and try to teleport to the Tomb of Odean, it brings me to Central Yharnam! Has anyone else had this issue?

My laptop is weak by modern standarts (GTX 1050, Intel i5 9300H, 8 GB of RAM), but I have seen a lot of people on the Internet playing Bloodborne on Steam Deck (which has almost identical hardware in comparison to my configuration) and having stable 30 FPS, or even higher. That being said, the game runs on my computer with around 7-8 FPS (by the way, my laptop charger is turned in while playing).
Things I have already tried doing to fix this problem:
- Activated all patches that increase FPS (including 360p patch!)
- Updated my GPU drivers
- Installed the lastest versions of Visual C++ redistable and Shadps4 (v. 0.7.1 WIP main eb300d0)
- Installed an FPS boost mod for Bloodborne
- Selected a High Performance mode in Nvidia Control Panel

Is there any solution to this problem, or my PC is just too weak for emulating Bloodborne?

Hi, i want to test some ps4 games that i own to see if they are working. If i get a bluray driver for my pc that i was looking to buy anyways, will it let me test the ps4 games or at least know they are readable?

I understand that majority of playable games for this emulator has more todo with being "trickle-down" programming for Bloodborne. Where the developments main focus is improving upon the emulator so that it benefits bloodborne first and foremost, and if another game becomes playable as a result then its a bonus.
But I'm very surprised that SOTC still does not even launch, yet I know of 18 ps4 games that are able to launch with varying degrees of performance. Normally I wouldn't bring this up, but the reason I am is because:
SOTC could run really well for all we know
but we won't know until we get past the launch screen. Now I'm not well versed whats going on behind the scenes with shadps4, it could be a huge programming hurdle thatll take months, it could be something small that will take them 5 minutes, or maybe even something having todo with the legalities of it. If anyone knows the reason, definitely share it.
