Earthion on AnyPS5

Verified

• Linux 7.2.9 (Arch) / Ryzen 9 7950X / Radeon RX 6650 XT / RADV Mesa 26.2.4 / GCC / Release (discussion #9004, 21 Oct 2026): Earthion PPSA28061 content 01.006.000. Furthest point named Gameplay. Startup notice, title screen (PRESS [Options] BUTTON), in-game menu (Options opens it), intro cinematic, and stage 1 with the ship, enemies and HUD (score, shot level, shield, stage), at 59.94 FPS throughout. The stop on the pad export n3kSX62fgNo reported on older builds is gone. Single community self-report. Patched stack, not a release zip. In game ≠ Playable.
• Same host and thread: relinked with relinker --registry --rpath <build>/core/libs/libs eboot.elf app.elf. Run from the converted folder. Options opens the in-game menu; Cross confirms.
• Cited AnyPS5 commits in that report: 20de55550f with fix(agc): resolve and render a multisampled target through its sRGB twin format #8847 (still open); 9f4ddf7cf9 plus a logging-only change in sceKernelWaitSema for the diagnostic runs; 27c88a8d75 with the semaphore fix. The follow-up names #9005 (fix(libkernel): return ESRCH for a null semaphore handle; still open) as the only change Earthion needed in these runs. On that PR (2fc26b970f) a 180 s run through the in-game menu and the intro cinematic, and 8 starts of 12 s each, showed no stop.
• The reporter marked AI-assisted testing and report: yes, Claude Code. The furthest-point observation (startup notice through the start of stage 1) is the reporter's. Any images in that thread are the reporter's, not captures from this site.

Blocked

• Intermittent abort about 2 s after start: sceKernelWaitSema: invalid argument (1 of 14 clean starts; never under GDB) (discussion #9004). On main, the worker thread can call sceKernelWaitSema with a null handle before sceKernelCreateSema runs; the host throws instead of returning an error the guest can retry.
• The semaphore fix is still an open pull request (#9005). An official zip or unmodified main may still hit that abort. The 180 s run and 8 starts on #9005 showed no stop; the reporter notes the race is intermittent, so those runs cannot show the abort is gone.

Unknown

• Official-table membership. This title is a community report (official: false), not a tested-compatibility table row.
• Whether the current official release zip matches this patched in-game report. The cited play used 20de55550f+#8847 and 27c88a8d75+#9005, not a release zip. An official zip may stop earlier.
• Windows. No cited Windows session of this title in discussion #9004. Later #9005 comments include Windows unit tests of the semaphore change only — not an Earthion title run.
• Audio. The cited report says audio was not checked.
• Progress past the start of stage 1, later stages, or completion. The cited report says progress past the start of stage 1 was not checked.
• Save/load. No cited report tests creating a save and loading it back.
• Network or online play. No cited report tests it.
• Output resolution. Discussion #9004 does not name a resolution for the 59.94 FPS sample.
• NVIDIA or Intel GPU in-game reports. The cited Linux host is Radeon RX 6650 XT RADV only.
• Whether #8847 is required for Earthion's picture. It is part of the cited play stack; the follow-up says #9005 is the only change Earthion needed in these runs. #8847 itself was tested on Curved Space, not claimed as an Earthion screenshot.
