Sope is an open-source Playstation emulator for Linux/Unix Systems. It is still in a quite early stage, but most demos now work. Soap software uses interpretive emulation, but a dynamic recompilation core is available for the Alpha and the x86 processors.
Usage:
./sope [arguments] [file(s)]
The files can be either PS-X EXE files or .PLL files (for many-files demos)
PLL files are plain text files, each line performing an action:
LOAD xxxxxx.exe # Loads an executable file
DATA xxxxxx.dat 80080000 # Loads a data file at the specified adress
SETPC 80080000 # Set the PC register to the specified value
Possible arguments are:
"-n" to disable texturing
"-v=n" to force VBlank interrupt period to n*1000 [default n=30]. n must be < 66
"-p" forces display to be equal to n*256 lines
"-s" enable sound (experimental)
"-B" boots cdrom
"-h" display help message
The PS-X bios image file must be named as "bios" and must reside in the current directory.

- 1 L2
- e R1
- 3 R2
- x Cross

- Escape: Quit emulator
- n: Disable/Enable Texturing
- b: Enable/Disable Bilinear Filtering
- u: Disable/Enable All Rendering
- f: Disable/Enable Cosmetic stuff (Transparencies, Blending)
Requirements:

· OpenGL libs (only for OpenGL renderer)
· AAlib, SVGAlib, X-Windows or SDL (for soft renderer)
· GTK+ >= 1.2.0 (only if using debugger)
· Alpha or x86 CPU (only required if using dynamic recompilation)
