Links, repository & detailsAbout
A static recompilation of Future Cop: L.A.P.D. built on the psxrecomp framework and the recomp-ui launcher. It is an owned-input setup kit: you supply your own SLES-01449 disc image and your own SCPH-5552 (Europe) BIOS dump, and first-run setup generates and compiles the game on your machine.
Getting started
Download the setup ZIP for your platform from Releases, extract it into a writable folder and start the Future_Cop_LAPD program. In the setup wizard, pick your disc image (the Redump CUE or a CHD of the same dump) and your BIOS file, then run Generate & rebuild. The first run compiles the game and takes several minutes.
Known issues & limitations
- Full-game completion, audio fidelity, and multiplayer are not claimed.
- Linux and macOS setup and gameplay have not been verified.
- Runtime snapshots from older builds are not qualified as compatible.
