Prospero.Eden Encore

The PS5 13.60-focused continuation of ProsperoEden 1.000.040.
Stability first. Newer game support. Better recovery. Better PS5 UX.

Important

PS5 firmware 13.60 is Encore's primary hardware-tested target. Other firmware versions are not currently claimed as validated by this fork.

Why Encore?

Current ProsperoEden releases moved beyond the 1.000.040 base and use a newer Lapy-based elevation path. That newer direction brings useful features, but 13.60 is not one of the firmware versions currently validated by upstream's Lapy helper.

Encore takes the opposite approach: keep the known-working 1.000.040 filesystem-access path on 13.60, harden it, simplify storage to one root with one fixed layout, then selectively add compatibility, stability, recovery and usability improvements that are valuable on a PS5 today.

The result is not a blind downgrade and not a blind merge of newer upstream code. It is a 13.60-specific maintained branch with its own hardening and release validation.

Developer-branch update — 10 October 2026 (not released)

The latest dev/ps5-sparse-jit work includes R294 (stop-aware, event-driven GPU command queue waits, crash-only GPU watchdog evidence, and opt-in cache lock timings) and R295 (one packaged hostname denylist for the PS5 launcher and emulated Switch DNS).

• headless/network-hosts.txt ships inside the app as network-hosts.txt; 145 publisher-domain rules cover matching subdomains, with * glob support within DNS labels. For example, ea.com blocks api.ea.com.
• The previous blanket guest-network shutdown and forced airplane mode are removed from the PS5 test build; permitted hostnames remain resolvable. Existing Nlib cover and banner HTTPS stays available.
• This is not a firewall: direct IP traffic, DoH and domains not included in the file can bypass DNS-only filtering. Use external network controls for stronger protection.
• Developer host tests validate the parser, guest/launcher integration and native DNS shim; PS5 firmware 13.60 behavior and real gameplay gains remain to be qualified.

For full caveats and test gates see R294 GPU queue notes and R295 domain policy. R296 adds opt-in network traffic metadata tracing: Detailed Logging creates a bounded network-accepted.log for accepted/denied DNS lookups, guest and launcher socket connects and TX/RX byte counts. No packet contents are captured. Turning logging OFF makes the audit silent. Crucially, all allowed lookups continue through the console's existing DNS configuration, including NanoDNS, without overriding its rules. See R296 NanoDNS compatibility and network audit. The report tool tools/analyze-ps5-network-audit.py summarizes observed allowed domains, IP-only destinations, and transfer counts without double-counting guest/native observations.

Local integration audit — 8 October 2026 (not released)

The latest downloadable build and the current local audit candidate are different states. The local candidate is on local/no-build-polish (base 149df7a), has not been built or booted on PS5 and is not available in the current downloadable package. Its changes include:

• A wider TV-first Home with Nlib artwork requests decoupled from library enumeration, four utility tiles, and a selected-game Quick Settings overlay. Host static checks do not prove the final PS5 image.
• Native IPv4 DNS and socket-flag compatibility for Nlib HTTPS, bundled CA verification retained, and additional network ABI/sanitizer tests. Actual PS5 HTTPS and banner retrieval remain untested.
• Bounded rotating logs (8 MiB first and recent segments per stream), improved failure handling, and a protected release hot path; logs retain useful recent evidence without unbounded growth.
• An additional package icon0.dds candidate for the PS5 system overlay. Its on-console effect remains unverified.
• Three optional disabled-by-default kernel/JIT/HLE experiments: dummy host-thread waits, cross-core I-cache coherence and the ServiceManager/audio initialization backport. They are deliberately excluded from the first baseline, pending independent PS5 A/B validation.

Performance workstream: see CPU/HLE stability and 30→60 FPS research. The candidate has an offline analysis tool for identifying repeated guest-PC samples and presentation gaps. No FPS increase or interpolation feature is shipped yet.

Known unresolved problem: FC27 can keep presenting at about 30 FPS while its guest/gameplay stalls. A smooth-looking FPS counter does not prove guest progress; the cause is not yet established. Frame generation to 60 FPS would be a separate display feature, not a freeze fix. A passing native build alone is not sufficient for release: actual boot, network, overlay, UI navigation and extended gameplay tests on firmware 13.60 remain mandatory.

PS5-first execution architecture — developer branch (not released)

The FC27 A/B/C/D campaign is finished. B and especially C reduced observed JIT cache pressure and improved average frame presentation, while CPU logical pinning in D did not provide a convincing general benefit. Some gameplay stalls remain, including stretches below 25 FPS without an adjacent JIT-pressure event.

The isolated dev/ps5-sparse-jit branch now includes:

• One global PS5 JIT memory budget for all A64 and A32 titles. At launch, Eden queries the available contiguous direct-memory pool and distributes a continuously sized initial code-cache budget among the guest cores, after leaving physical headroom for system, game and GPU. No FC27 whitelist or A/B/C hard-coded ceiling remains. Safe Launch or a failed memory query reverts to the proven baseline. This policy is present in normal builds and requires no manual performance switch. Each code arena remains constrained by Xbyak/x64 addressing; the current allocator is still physically dense, so true on-demand multi-arena growth remains separate unfinished work.
• PS5-native Vulkan shader worker budgeting and one-time worker-count receipt, not yet measured on hardware. A smaller pool may slow shader warmup.
• Global on-disk shader cache retention: RADV quota follows its actual backing filesystem's free-space budget rather than 256 MiB; OpenGL cache records are pruned oldest-first only when writable storage is genuinely short, not at an unconditional 64 MiB ceiling. Neither policy changes GPU RAM capacity or guarantees shader warmup improvements.
• GPU/direct-memory snapshots at core initialization and shutdown, with a conservative distinction between largest contiguous block and total-free upper bound. No unproven GPU budget increase has been applied.
• A provisional sparse JIT dual-view mapper, opt-in only when the app is compiled with EDEN_SPARSE_JIT_DEV=ON and profiling support. This mapper is not safe for production until mid-game allocation failures, executable aliasing and teardown are validated. The arbitrary 4 GiB limit was removed; full demand-driven multi-segment JIT growth is still to be implemented.

No native build or PS5 execution of these branch changes has taken place. See PS5 architecture and validation gates. The currently installed/downloadable application does not include these changes. FC27's input mapping and in-game PlayStation glyph replacement remain separate outstanding issues.

• Shader worker selection now uses the actual PS5 process CPU-affinity mask (not only the machine's advertised logical CPU count). Native performance and shader-load timing have not been verified.
• Added lifecycle-specific virtual-vs-committed JIT memory reporting, and fixed the uncalled startup memory diagnostic.
• A startup-only RW/RX mapping check can reject the incomplete sparse JIT path in a developer build; the production option remains OFF.
• The offline architecture contract check is available at python3 tools/check-ps5-architecture.py (not a substitute for a console build or hardware validation).

Additional PS5-first JIT work, unqualified: initial physical sparse pages now cover Dynarmic's constructor-time constant pool; sparse-reservation failure uses the dense JIT path; A64 and A32 attempt a one-time cache evacuation when extension fails before mapping. The installed app still uses the dense allocator. New physical usage reports distinguish dense owned direct-memory bytes from sparse reserved/committed bytes, with a post-destruction leak snapshot. A mocked-kernel host gate is present, but actual firmware 13.60 JIT aliasing and OOM recovery remain untested. Do not treat this as an installed or completed dynamic multi-arena JIT.

Further developer-branch improvements — all games, not title-specific: Dynarmic A64/A32 starts can retry smaller code-cache capacities when only physical allocation fails, preserving real compiler errors. PS5 Vulkan now initializes persistent per-title guest shader and driver pipeline caches without blocking on a full shader-rebuild pass or stopping the compiler worker pool. A driver-cache blob rejected after a RADV update falls back to a fresh cache. These are source-only, not in the installed app; native PS5 build, shader persistence and gameplay profiling remain necessary.

PS5-wide robustness fixes (developer branch, not released): failed Dynarmic executable-alias mapping no longer returns a non-executable writable pointer; the generated Dynarmic unit receives its required native compile definition; Vulkan driver-cache saves now use staged flush-and-rename transactions, preserving the previous cache on an interrupted write. All changes are source-level and require native build/hardware verification before release.

Changes in Encore R1

Prospero.Eden Encore R1 turns the proven ProsperoEden 1.000.040 base into a PS5 13.60-focused release:

• PS5 firmware 13.60 hardware-tested as the primary target; Encore reaches the launcher and a current ZBIC title launches successfully.
• ZBIC/zstd NSO support for newer Switch software while retaining LZ4.
• Shipping CPU stability profile uses Dynarmic per-core JIT; shared-JIT, successor batching and saved-block compile-ahead stay disabled after the FC 27 freeze investigation.
• Audited Eden fixes are backported without a wholesale rebase: sparse-memory decommit #4471, CPU/GPU dirty tracking #4473, fence/synchronization cleanup #4477, plus reviewed FW23/service/max-session and runtime/HID fixes.
• PS5 OpenGL is built from audited source snapshot ad2807d: SDK 1.0.1's vertex-buffer lifetime fix plus the reviewed constant-buffer/alignment (217da45) and one-time scanout-pool flush (67c873f) fixes. RADV/Mesa/PayloadSDK remain on their coherent hardware-qualified 13.60 baseline.
• One storage-root contract: internal defaults to /data/prosperoeden; external storage uses the exact same keys/firmware/roms/updates/mods/... layout under another root.
• The working 0.40 one-shot filesystem helper is hardened with target validation, verified rollback, fail-closed postconditions and symlink-safe migration.
• Safe Launch recovery profile without overwriting saved settings.
• Reworked TV-first Encore launcher UI/UX with the final Eden Encore neon identity, 4K tropical-night artwork, dark glass surfaces, controller-first navigation and accessibility modes.
• Nlib rich-media enrichment for the launcher: cached title metadata, icons, 1080p banners, gameplay screenshots and local-player capacity, with versioned cache migration and offline fallbacks.
• Four authored video profiles — Minimum / Recommended / High / Ultra — plus a derived Custom state; profiles are generated from encore-overrides, remain title-aware, and keep FSR sharpness conservative by default.
• Global settings reset and per-game override reset now require an explicit second press; mapping reset and shader/JIT cache clearing use the same confirmation rule.
• DualSense-first controls with four profiles (PlayStation / Switch / Custom PS5 / Custom Switch), vibration/deadzone controls and multi-controller handling. Automatic menu/gameplay face-button switching was disabled because its heuristic inverted buttons unpredictably; FC27 match mapping is not yet resolved. In-game PlayStation glyphs are also not universally supported.
• Diagnostics, bounded caches/logs and safer save import/export.
• Reproducible release packaging with ZIP, optional FFPFSC image and SHA-256 checksums.
• Complete French launcher catalog with 29 packaged language catalogs, immediate in-app launcher reconstruction for language/font/label changes, release-safe locale detection and hash-verified FTP installation; stale development language.txt overrides can no longer force English.
• CodeQL, pinned GitHub Actions, Dependabot and documented security/community policies.

The big advantages

🎯 PS5 13.60 is a first-class target

• Primary hardware-tested target: PS5 firmware 13.60.
• Internal storage defaults to /data/prosperoeden with a fixed folder structure.
• External storage changes only the root; it uses the same required subfolders.
• Encore keeps the 1.000.040 filesystem-access path instead of switching to Lapy.
• No Lapy daemon or Lapy helper dependency is required.
• If the filesystem request is unavailable, Encore stays sandboxed instead of pretending it succeeded.

🧩 Newer Switch software support

• Adds ZBIC / zstd NSO decompression used by newer Switch software.
• Keeps the existing LZ4 loader path for older titles.
• Preserves ProsperoEden's PS5 low-memory NSO loading strategy.

🛟 Recovery built for a couch / TV emulator

• Safe Launch starts one game with conservative settings only for that run:
  • OpenGL
  • Handheld mode
  • 1x internal resolution
  • Bilinear
  • 60 Hz
  • 1080p
  • mods disabled
• Saved settings are not overwritten.
• Confirmed Restore recommended defaults globally.
• Confirmed Reset overrides per game.

🎮 DualSense-first UX

• PlayStation is the default profile. In the stock profile Encore starts with PS-style menu semantics and can switch to physical Switch face-button positions for sustained gameplay input, with hysteresis when returning to menu/navigation context.
• Switch remains a fixed Nintendo-position layout.
• Custom PS5 and Custom Switch stay exactly as mapped by the player and are never changed automatically.
• Global and per-game button mappings are supported.
• Adjustable vibration and stick deadzone.
• Multi-controller hotplug, motion controls and analog triggers retained.
• Launcher input follows the foreground PS5 user.

⚙️ Four title-aware video profiles

Encore exposes four authored tiers sourced from encore-overrides, plus a derived Custom state when manual values no longer match a tier:

• Minimum — Vulkan, 1080p, 1x, Bilinear, AA off, 60 Hz.
• Recommended — Vulkan, 1440p, 1.25x, Bilinear, FXAA, 60 Hz.
• High — Vulkan, 2160p, 1.5x, Bicubic, FXAA, 60 Hz.
• Ultra — Vulkan, 2160p, 2x, Bilinear, AA off, 60 Hz.

A title-specific override may adjust those values without changing the global tier. Manual edits become Custom for that scope. Shipping profiles keep the conservative per-core JIT contract; saved-block compile-ahead stays disabled.

🧰 Better diagnostics and bounded storage

• Filesystem-access status.
• In the unreleased local candidate, diagnostics shows the actual selected Encore storage root path rather than pretending that a restricted filesystem view represents the physical PS5 SSD capacity.
• Shader/JIT cache size.
• Log size.
• Safe shader-cache cleanup.
• RADV shader cache capped at 256 MB.
• Session logs rotate instead of growing forever.
• Cover textures use a bounded LRU cache.

🔐 Extra hardening

• Save imports reject symlink escapes.
• Settings writes are atomic and invalid JSON falls back safely.
• Package metadata and native dependency closure are validated.
• Optional RADV/Mesa weak imports are resolved only after the real native link.
• Release inputs are pinned and release bundles are reproducible/checksummed.
• Keys, ROM/container files and local save-transfer folders are explicitly ignored by Git.

Encore vs ProsperoEden upstream

This comparison is against ProsperoEden v1.000.070, the current upstream line this fork intentionally does not merge wholesale.

Area	Prospero.Eden Encore	ProsperoEden v1.000.070
Main PS5 target	13.60 — tested	Lapy helper validated upstream on 6.02 and 12.70; other firmware experimental
Filesystem model	Hardened 1.000.040 one-shot access + one internal/external storage-root contract	Lapy-based exact-title helper / resident-service path
Newer NSO compression	ZBIC + LZ4	Upstream line evolves independently
Recovery	Safe Launch + global reset + per-game reset	No equivalent Encore recovery workflow documented
Performance UX	Minimum / Recommended / High / Ultra + Custom, title-aware via encore-overrides	Seven individual performance switches
PS5 controls	PlayStation / Switch / Custom PS5 / Custom Switch, with PlayStation menu↔gameplay auto-context plus global/per-game mapping	Full button mapping system
Diagnostics	Filesystem mode, free space, cache/log sizes, safe cleanup	Crash/boot diagnostics and logs
Storage hardening	Bounded RADV cache, rotating logs, bounded cover VRAM	Shader cache / logging present, different policy
Save import safety	Backup/rollback + symlink rejection	Save import/export support
Updates	Manual release updates by design	Built-in network updater

Encore deliberately chooses predictability on 13.60 over importing every newer upstream subsystem.

Firmware compatibility

PS5 firmware	Encore status
13.60	🧪 Primary hardware target — active stability revalidation
Other firmware supported by underlying tooling	⚠️ Not validated by Encore yet
Unknown/newer firmware layouts	❌ No compatibility claim

A firmware having offsets somewhere in the wider PS5 ecosystem does not automatically mean Encore has been validated on it.

Filesystem access and security

Encore uses one storage model:

• default internal root: /data/prosperoeden;
• optional external root selected in Settings → Storage;
• the same fixed subfolders are used in both cases: keys/, firmware/, roms/, updates/, mods/, save-import/, save-export/ and ryujinx/.

Encore keeps the proven ProsperoEden 1.000.040 one-request helper rather than adopting the newer Lapy path. The helper:

• runs once during single-threaded startup;
• validates the exact Encore title ID PPSA99008;
• accepts only the filesystem request used by Encore;
• uses a fixed/versioned protocol and bounded I/O timeouts;
• verifies the resulting state and verifies rollback on failure;
• terminates instead of continuing when the post-request state is inconsistent;
• exits after the one request.

Legacy ProsperoEden data migration is preflighted, symlink-safe and rollback-aware. A pre-existing external root is preserved instead of being rewritten into a different storage layout.

See headless/elevation/README.md for implementation details.

Recommended defaults

See SETTINGS.md for every exposed setting, defaults, per-game overrides and recommended profiles for 4K/1080p displays and demanding games.

Encore starts conservative:

Setting	Default
Renderer	Vulkan
TV output	1440p
Internal resolution	1.25x
Upscaling	Bilinear
FSR sharpness	50% (used only with FSR)
Anti-aliasing	FXAA
Refresh rate	60 Hz
FPS overlay	Off
Controller layout	PlayStation
Stick deadzone	8%
Vibration	100%
Console mode	Docked

Try OpenGL when a title has a Vulkan-specific issue. Use 0.75x / 0.5x + FSR when performance is the priority. Higher internal resolutions require substantially more GPU/memory headroom.

Install

ZIP is the recommended installation method. Encore also ships an optional .ffpfsc image for ShadowMountPlus users.

• ZIP: extract PPSA99008 to /data/homebrew/PPSA99008.
• FFPFSC: mount the release image through a compatible ShadowMountPlus/etaHEN setup.
• Internal storage: default root is /data/prosperoeden.
• External storage: choose another root in Settings → Storage; the folder structure stays identical.

See INSTALL.md for the complete step-by-step guide, update procedure, checksum verification and troubleshooting.

Build

Linux is recommended.

make release

Release files are generated under dist/.

The GitHub release workflow validates translations, performs the full native build/package pipeline, verifies SHA-256 checksums, and only publishes compiled assets after a successful build.

See docs/BUILDING.md for toolchain details and docs/FORK_NOTES.md for the technical audit and validation history.

Security

Encore uses CodeQL scanning, pinned build inputs, SHA-pinned GitHub Actions, checksummed release assets, save-import symlink protection, transactional migration checks and a hardened one-shot filesystem-access path.

Please report exploitable issues privately and avoid publishing proof-of-concept details before a fix is available. See SECURITY.md for supported versions, scope and disclosure instructions.

What Encore intentionally does not claim

• It does not repair PS5 FPKG entitlement/PPR support.
• It does not make the 13.60 kstuff/FPKG stack reliable.
• It does not include keys, firmware, games or copyrighted console data.
• It does not silently import the newer Lapy elevation rewrite.
• It does not use an automatic renderer fallback that hides real failures.

FPKG/kstuff behavior is a separate jailbreak/runtime concern from the emulator itself.
