FROM A REPORT TO YOUR FIRST TEST

A better first run starts here.

AnyPS5 adapts extracted executables into native host programs. The important part is matching your files and setup to a documented test.

01. Find a report for your exact title.

Search the game library by name or PPSA ID. Check the edition, platform, hardware, test date and build. A result on an integration branch does not establish the same result on a release or current main.

“Gameplay” describes the observed stage. It does not establish a completed playthrough, a minimum specification or compatibility with every PC.

02. Prepare the input files.

The native relinker takes a clean executable ELF. Keep the game’s extracted resources and bundled modules available. The upstream usage documentation describes the supported layout and additional module directories.

source/
  input.elf
  sce_module/
    <bundled ELF modules>

The default lookup accepts sce_module/, sce_modules/ or prx/ beside the input. Both sce_module/ and sce_modules/ together cause an error. If you supply --sce-module-path, use the parent of these directories.

You can use the local ELF checker for a basic header check. It cannot prove that a payload is decrypted, safe or compatible.

03. Choose your conversion route.

The official browser converter handles supported ZIP or folder inputs locally. Its documented executable-and-module limit is 256 MiB combined; other memory and output limits also apply. Read the current limits on that page before choosing a large input.

For a native workflow, get or build the relinker using the official repository. Our command builder supports Windows PowerShell and Linux Bash. Windows needs --windows; naming an output .exe alone does not select the Windows format.

04. Prepare the runtime layout.

Keep the converted executable, matching host libraries, converted modules and the title’s resources in the layout required by upstream. Conversion alone does not supply the complete game or make missing system functions work.

On Windows and Linux, the host needs the CPU extensions used by the title’s compiled code. The runtime checks required capabilities at startup. Intel translation cannot handle AMD-specific instructions generated by the title at runtime. Graphics, memory requirements and driver behavior vary by game and build.

05. Record what actually happens.

Keep the title ID, platform, GPU, build or commit, extra patches, error text and observed stage together. If a title reaches a menu and later crashes, preserve both observations. The upstream Game bring-up discussions are the place to share your result.
