Porpoise 4.0
New
- Frame Generation (beta) in Settings → Video and the in-game menu: a 30 fps game shown at 60, and with the PS5 at 120 Hz a 60 fps game at 120. Off by default; needs V-Sync
- Steady 30 FPS, under Frame Generation, for games that swing between 30 and 60
- Simpler Settings: just what most players need, with Show All Settings for everything
- Auto Boost in a game's settings: the settings that run it best on PS5, with one press
- A calmer Porpoise theme: fainter grid, no light beams, cleaner glass
- Star Cube redone after the GameCube's own menu
- Smooth Edges (FXAA) screen filter
- Player 1's Port for games that want your controller in another port
- Change Disc in the in-game menu, for two-disc games and expansion discs
- GameCube Menu, Wii Menu, Wii Channels and Wii System Update in Settings → Console
- Add a Code in a game's Cheats and Patches
Fixes and speed
- Smoother quick saves and screenshots, lighter input and logging work while you play
- Games with a big shader cache no longer stall on a black screen before they start
- Luigi's Mansion (PAL) and other games start with cheats on
- NFS shares with version 3 turned off now connect
- Rumble no longer sets off Wii Remote and Nunchuk shakes
- Several rare crashes and hangs

Install or update
Use ShadowMountPlus 1.7 beta 4 or newer. With older versions, Porpoise can close the moment it opens on some setups (firmware 12.x with the Lapy JB Daemon or LegacyJB).
From 2.0 or later: Settings → About → Updates.
By hand: download Porpoise-4.0.zip, delete /data/homebrew/PPSA99764/ on the PS5, and copy the PPSA99764 folder into /data/homebrew/. With FTP, use binary transfers (FileZilla: Transfer → Transfer type → Binary), or some text files won't copy. Your games, saves and settings in /data/porpoise/ are kept.
Porpoise contains no games, BIOS or firmware. Play only games you own. Not affiliated with Nintendo, Sony or RetroAchievements. Licenses are in licenses/README.txt inside the zip.
