RPCS3 Forums

I have tried to make the emulator install the firmware. RPCS3 v0.0.09 - v0.0.13 with both ps3 v4.86 & v4.87. i have installed C++ RED. and all my system requirements are in line with recommended spes.

1.) After starting the RPCS3 I click File -> Install Firmware
2.) I Choose the PS3UPDAT.PUP file.
3.) I get a message saying "Successfully Installed PS3 firmware and LEE Modules!
4.) I Click OK

After this point, the software just freezes and no longer responds to windows.

Note. I left it there at one point for 3 hours and still nothing.

No one seems to be having the same problem as I am so, not really sure what to do at this point. I am on the brink of giving up on RPCS3.

Likely OS or AV issue. It works fine here.

I'm having the same issue on Window 10, it crashes after the firmware (but does finish installing) and freeze/crashes on both creating firmware cache and creating game PPU cache (with only one warning ·W 0:00:25.721959 PPU: PPU Cache location not initialized.) and it doesn't bother actually showing like a dialogue window or anything.

it also worked earlier- but for some reason it only worked once on my game (BLES01815), and even reinstalling both firmware and the emulator does not make it run again.
