shadPS4 Manager

shadPS4 Manager installs shadPS4, organizes PS4 game folders, and creates Steam entries for launching games. It also includes tools for extracting PKG files and managing the emulator's online-service sign-in. Use game files and keys that you are entitled to use.

Install

Install it from the portal (the Gaming tab), or from a checkout of the repository:

bazzite-console/apps/shadps4/install.sh                         # the app, its launcher, a menu entry and a Desktop icon
bazzite-console/apps/shadps4/install.sh --no-desktop-shortcut   # without the Desktop icon
bazzite-console/apps/shadps4/install.sh --uninstall             # remove it; --purge removes its settings too

The launcher is ~/.local/bin/ps5-shadps4-manager; the app runs on the suite's shared Python environment.

Use it

Install shadPS4, add folders containing your game files, and refresh the library. Use Extract PKG for a game or update package, then select a game to manage its Steam entry. shadPS4 is an experimental PS4 emulator; compatibility and performance vary by game and are not guaranteed on PlayStation 5 hardware running Bazzite.

Under the shadPS4 Install and shadPS4 Uninstall pills, the shadPS4 line says Not installed. or Installed., with the button to use. Its tooltip says which version is installed, or what Install takes, and when a newer shadPS4 is out. When another version than the one pinned for this version of the app is installed, the tooltip says so, and Install puts the pinned one in. Another version and a newer shadPS4 also go to the log, once.
