# DobieStation
[](https://discord.gg/zbEXKfN)
[](https://github.com/PSI-Rockin/DobieStation/actions)
[](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/PSI-Rockin/dobiestation)
A young PS2 emulator with plans for an optimized Android port, as well as a fast, accurate, and easy-to-use PC port.
A large portion of the PS2's library can boot or get to menus. Some titles can even go in-game, including high-profile ones such as Final Fantasy X and Shadow of the Colossus. Not intended for general use.
## Compiling
DobieStation uses Qt 5 and supports qmake and CMake.
### Building with qmake
```
cd DobieStation/DobieStation
qmake DobieStation.pro
make
```
### Building with CMake
```
# Linux
mkdir build && cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo
make
# MacOS (using Homebrew Qt5)
mkdir build && cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/usr/local/opt/qt5
make
# Windows (MSVC)
# - change 'CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH' to point to your Qt installation.
# - replace 'Visual Studio 16 2017' with your desired VS version (eg: "Visual Studio 16 2019")
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="C:/Qt/5.13.1/msvc2017_64" \
-G "Visual Studio 15 2017" -A x64 ..
start DobieStation.sln
```
### Note for Ubuntu Xenial
While 16.04 is still officially supported they don't provide a recent enough version of Qt.
As such if you wish to build Dobie on Xenial you will need to update Qt through a PPA
```
add-apt-repository ppa:beineri/opt-qt-5.11.1-xenial
apt-get update
apt-get install qt511-meta-minimal qt511multimedia libglu1-mesa-dev
source /opt/qt511/bin/qt511-env.sh
```
Alternatively, you may upgrade to the most recent Ubuntu LTS, 18.04.
### Building with Visual Studio
DobieStation is known to compile on 2017 and 2019.
Before opening Visual Studio, you must set the `QTDIR` environment variable to your 64 bit QT install.
For example on Visual Studio 2017: `C:\path\to\qt\5.12.1\msvc2017_64`
Once the variable is set open `DobieStation\DobieStation.sln` in Visual Studio.
## Using the Emulator
DobieStation requires a copy of the PS2 BIOS, which must be dumped from your PS2.
The various command line options are as follows:
```
-b [BIOS file] - Takes the form of /path/to/bios.bin. Required for booting DobieStation.
-f [file] (optional) - The ELF or ISO that DobieStation loads. Takes the form of /path/to/game.iso or /path/to/homebrew.elf.
-s (optional) - Skip the BIOS boot animation when starting DobieStation with an ISO/ELF loaded.
```
