ⅩⅠⅠ.2 | How to play PlayStation®Home on Linux! - DestinationHome/Destination-Home-Online GitHub Wiki

This wiki page will document how users can install/play PlayStation®Home on Linux distros.

Prerequisites

Assuming you already have a fully configured system, with graphics drivers and all its dependencies, there's only one dependency needed to run our build: libGLEW. To install it, run the following commands on the terminal of your corresponding system:

Steam Deck

sudo steamos-readonly disable
sudo pacman -S glew
sudo steamos-readonly enable

Arch Linux

sudo pacman -S glew

Debian/Ubuntu

sudo apt-get install libglew-dev

Fedora

sudo dnf install glew glew-devel

OpenSUSE

sudo zypper install glew-devel

Installing

1. You can download our latest Linux RPCS3 build here. Once you have downloaded the build in a .zip format, install the zip and unzip tools from your package manager if you don't have them yet. You can then extract the build into a folder (for example, DH_RPCS3) by running the command:

unzip -d DH_RPCS3 DH_CB2_RPCS3-Linux.zip

You can alternatively use a GUI frontend like Ark to unzip the build.

  • You can then open RPCS3 by clicking the rpcs3 file, or by typing ./rpcs3 in the terminal.

2. Once you've opened RPCS3, you'll need to install the PS3 firmware and our Home PKG.

  • To install the PS3 firmware, you can get it directly from Sony's official website here (direct download). Then, drag and drop the file into the RPCS3 menu, and let it install.

  • To obtain our Home PKG, please open a ticket in our Discord server, where we will give it to you and help you if needed. Once you've got it, you have to drag and drop it into the RPCS3 menu like you did with the firmware, and let it install as well.

3. Lastly, you'll need to create an RPCN account, and configure the PlayStation Home game settings.

  • To create a RPCN account, you can follow this section of our guide.

  • To configure PlayStation Home, you'll need our MLAA patch and this config file. Next, copy the imported_patch.yml file into /home/youruser/.config/rpcs3/patches, and copy the config_NPIA00005.yml into /home/youruser/.config/rpcs3/custom_configs.

  • Finally, open RPCS3, right-click on PlayStation Home -> Manage Game Patches, and tick the Disable MLAA option underneath PlayStation: Home/NPIA00005 v01.87

And you're set up! Simply open a ticket in our Discord server to get whitelisted, and you're good to go!
