User experience: benefits and issues
- Disc Key Implementation: RPCS3 developers implemented methods to read the disc keys directly or use the IRD in the background without needing to rebuild the entire ISO file.
- PSN Packages: The most stable method currently involves converting the disc install into a digital package (
.pkg) format, often requiring the specific IRD to decrypt the contents initially, but running the game from a folder structure (dev_hdd0/game) rather than a monolithic ISO.
- Performance: Modern updates to RPCS3’s SPU interpreters and compilers (LLVM) have made MGS4 fully playable from start to finish on high-end hardware, regardless of whether a patched ISO or folder structure is used.
