Testing

PPSA99666 · Linux · Launcher and E1M1 gameplay; movement, aiming and shooting

Current conclusion

The upstream tested-compatibility table records DOOM Shareware homebrew reaching E1M1 on Linux and later maps on a patched Windows build. A separate Linux NVIDIA run on main a11c8f7f7 reaches E1M1 and accepts controller input. The official labels are In game, not In game, playable.

Platform test results

Linux · Launcher and E1M1 gameplay; movement, aiming and shooting

Testing

The launcher reaches 60 FPS; E1M1 runs at 35 FPS. A controller input file (APS5_PAD_INPUT_FILE) was used to start a new game, move, turn, fire, pick up an item and open the automap. Audio output opened at 48000 Hz but was not listened to; later maps and save/load were not tested.

Build: main a11c8f7f7, no additional PRs; fSELF-wrapped eboot.bin and sce_module/libc.prx unwrapped before relinking, with libc.prx converted as a guest module

Linux · E1M1 gameplay using CPU scaler

Issues

The launcher presents near 60 FPS; E1M1 holds DOOM's 35 FPS simulation rate over a 30-second move-and-fire run.

Build: main 0e173a46 + #1278, #1279, #1307; relink with --exclude-sce-module libc.prx

Windows · E1M1 and later maps, audio and save/load on patched main

Testing

Upstream documents movement, weapon switching, later maps, save/load, level selection and audio on this Windows integration stack. The official verdict is In game, not Playable.

Build: main 2edaf7f4 plus proposed PRs; not a stock tagged release

Known issues

Linux · E1M1 gameplay using CPU scaler

  • The bundled guest libc shim prevents WAD discovery without the workaround.
  • The AGC first GPU presentation never completes under llvmpipe; the title uses a CPU scaler instead.
