Alan Wake 2 on AnyPS5

Linux is at menus — Alan Wake 2 (the 2023 Remedy title PPSA02572, content 01.200.007, not Alan Wake Remastered), the in-engine Remedy logo then a black wait-for-button screen at 60 FPS — on main 6005185ee plus #7300 (Arch Linux / Radeon RX 9070 XT), with the end-user license agreement not scrolling as the current blocker; Windows and macOS were not checked. Latest release v0.1.3 is 3fd1cc393b (20 Oct). Cited commit 6005185ee (17 Oct, 21:08 UTC) predates v0.1.3 (3fd1cc393b, 20 Oct, 07:07 UTC). The cited furthest menus used main 6005185ee plus #7300. #7300 merged as 582de4cc1 (17 Oct, 23:09 UTC) and is in v0.1.3. Relinked with --module-dir . and --registry, because libcohtml.Prospero.prx, libRenoirCore.PS5.prx and MediaDecoders.Prospero.prx sit in the root of app0. Those flags are relinker flags, not a game patch. APS5_PLAYGO_UNLISTED_CHUNKS=installed was set: the dump has neither sce_sys/playgo-chunk.dat nor sce_sys/playgo-scenario.json, and without the variable it stops at once with scePlayGo: ... chunk ID 1 cannot be checked. APS5_PLAYGO_UNLISTED_CHUNKS is a host environment variable, not a game patch. Input was through APS5_PAD_INPUT_FILE. No extra title patch file is named as required. No cited run checked the official release zip. Whether the current official release zip matches this report is unknown, so an official zip may stop earlier. This title is not in the official table. Build source is main — the cited furthest menus used main 6005185ee plus one pull request, #7300, which is already merged and is in v0.1.3, not a release zip. The form furthest point is Menu. What is shown: the in-engine Remedy logo; then a black screen at 60 FPS that waits for a button (it renders at 3840x2160); Cross opens the end-user license agreement. Those FPS values are a report, not a benchmark. Menus on that cited main is not an In game claim. A single self-report is not an official-table row. Current blocker: the end-user license agreement says "Scroll to the bottom to accept", and no input moves it: holding or pulsing the right stick, the left stick, the D-pad and R2 all leave the screen unchanged, while the same right stick input scrolls CONTROL Resonant's agreement. Not investigated yet. Without #7300, the title stopped with SIGSEGV 7 s after start, after opening its 153 compiled effects, with nothing in the log (same APR command buffer path as CONTROL Resonant, sceAmprAprCommandBufferReadFile returning 0x8002001C on a full buffer). That SIGSEGV is historical as of 17 Oct 2026, when #7300 merged. The report was prepared with AI assistance (Claude Code). Audio was not checked (SDL dummy driver). Gameplay past the license agreement, saves, and Windows were not checked.
