This fork adds a Neural / ReShade settings tab, local Vulkan integration, sliders with displayed values for every numeric Neural / Feeder control, and four quick presets: Suave, Equilibrado, Detalle and Cinematográfico. The component selection follows DLSS5oneclick. This is community integration through ReShade/Feeder, not an official NVIDIA DLSS integration or an official RPCS3 release.
Download Extraer-RPCS3-Neural-0.2.2-win64.exe (self-extracting package) or extract RPCS3-Neural-0.2.2-public-win64.zip completely. Both contain RPCS3 and its DLLs, including OpenCV and Qt. Open rpcs3.exe inside the extracted folder; do not move it away from its DLLs or run it from inside a ZIP.
In Config → Neural / ReShade, click Descargar / reparar componentes, or enable the ReShade checkbox to download missing components automatically. Progress, cancellation and errors are shown in RPCS3. No terminal is needed. Select Vulkan and your compatible NVIDIA GPU, choose a quick preset if desired, save and restart. The in-game ReShade menu is blocked for keyboard and gamepad; configure effects in RPCS3 settings. Disabling the integration requires saving and restarting RPCS3. Activation is off by default; the download preserves pending settings until you save.
The public archive contains the emulator, its redistributable dependencies, licenses and setup scripts. It excludes neural models/add-ons and LumeniteFX; those are downloaded locally because their redistribution is restricted or unverified. Requires Windows x64 and the Microsoft Visual C++ x64 runtime compatible with MSVC 14.51 or later.
Experimental: configuration/UI tests, Vulkan device creation, add-on loading and a separate 300-frame neural diagnostic passed on an RTX 4090. Saw II reached gameplay with successful neural feature-18 evaluations at 3840×2160. Visual comparisons across presets, depth/motion quality and prolonged stability remain unvalidated; users should evaluate these themselves. Build tools and pinned dependencies are included; clone with submodules when rebuilding.
The world's first free and open-source PlayStation 3 emulator/debugger, written in C++ for Windows, Linux, macOS and FreeBSD.

You should also contact any of the developers in the forums or in the Discord server to learn more about the current state of the emulator.
Use of AI tools for research and reverse engineering purposes is permitted. However, contributors are expected to fully own and understand all code they submit. Any communication with the team — including code, code comments, and GitHub comments — must come from the human contributor, not an AI agent acting autonomously.
We have unfortunately seen a rise in untested and unverified AI-generated slop being submitted to this project. This wastes maintainer time and, in worse cases, such changes get merged and break functionality for all users. Repeated violations will result in a ban from the repository. Please be respectful of everyone's time.
Pull requests opened by AI agents or automated tools must include a disclosure in the PR description stating the scope of AI involvement — which parts were AI-generated and what human testing or review was performed prior to submission. PRs that omit this disclosure may be closed without review.
If you are unsure about your work, open a discussion issue to talk it through with the team, or reach out to a maintainer on Discord.
