About

A recompilation of Threads of Fate built with the PSXRecomp framework and the shared recomp-ui launcher. The package contains no game disc, retail BIOS, generated retail game code, or saved game. Version 0.1.0 is a release candidate, and the project was developed with AI assistance.

Getting started

You must supply your own SLUS-01019 game disc and an SCPH-5502/5552 Europe BIOS. Extract the setup ZIP into a writable folder, start the launcher, choose your CUE file and the BIOS in the setup wizard, then run Generate & rebuild and wait for the game to start. On Windows the wizard can download portable build tools; on Linux and macOS you install CMake, Ninja, Python 3 and a C/C++ compiler first.

Known issues & limitations

Package setup and gameplay acceptance are still pending; native build checks do not establish gameplay support.
