Nice to finally see mac stuff and not just people saying "use a pc"
Or a windows emulator download tutorial
Is it weird that I found the click of your mouse oddly satisfying? Lol. Great video Blaine!
It is nice to hear that Mac can play PS3 games
this is a much simpler way than other videos i have seen, thank you so much for this
Your videos are amazing Blaine. The way you put them together is so professional. Just thought I should show my appreciation as you've helped me mod so many retro consoles! Quick question, do you get much time to actually play many games? 🤙🏼🤣
UPDATE: RPCS3 is available for mac on the official website now
Thank you so much 😭 I was struggling
Thanks! It’d be also great to see videos about how to use emulators for Dreamcast, PS2, Xbox, and Xbox 360 games on the Mac.
I’m pretty sure my MacBook Pro would explode trying to run anything on this emulator
At least for me I the Mac version is now available, this guide is still great just saving some time for anyone
Where did you get your iso files from though
@@asil.sings30 you can easily get em at Vinn's Lair
Thanks. What are the minimum requirements for the mark to run the game smoothly?
Can you add the ps3 website link(2:00) to the description?
Would have loved to see you try some games and tell us about the performance. My ps3 started overheating and I have some MacBook pro's but not sure if the performance will be worth the effort.
Thanks Blaine always helpful 😈💯
Do you know where to get the games files from , I don't want to get a virus or get redirected to some next site
best tutorial ever, full of detail but at the same time simple. Great.
i have a booting failed problem while installing the game in macbook pro (ventura) can you fix this?
Could you show how to get the iso and decrypt it? I have the game disc and a blu-ray player that can read PS3 files. But I am lost in how to actually get the iso file to load properly for RPCS3.
hello i have this problem : Booting failed: The selected file or folder is invalid or corrupted.
For information on setting up the emulator and dumping your PS3 games, read the quickstart guide. (excuse me for my english because i speak french) :) thank u
did you find out how to fix it
same problem
Same
same probem. pls share how to fix
did u solve it ???
Thanks for the great tutorial on how to set up the emulator!
I still have some concerns though about what macs can run this, for example i have an 2015 MacBook pro with an 225gb ssd built in it would you think that the emulator would run on my device
im almost about to give up, I downloaded both GTA IV & V, decrypted the ISOs and now its only giving me a black screen after recompiling
Great video Blaine! I actually had RPCS3 running on my M1 Mac Mini a couple months ago, but I removed it because getting the games to run was a major hassle. I think I’ll wait until there’s a more “plug & play” functionality to it.
What exactly did you have to do? I have an M1 air and I wanna know if it’s worth it or not
@@justinmarqueef3426 Each game has different settings, so you have to mess with the settings to get it to play. It’s a pain. I wish it was as plug and play ready as Openemu or Dolphin.
what's the best site to pick a ISO file from?
@@goncalomatias26vimms lair
I have a 2017 Intel-based MacBook Pro and RPCS3 is working extremely well now. Way better than I expected, given the hardware I’m playing on.
What version of Mac are you on Blaine?
Showing this as an error:- Booting failed: The selected file or folder is invalid or corrupted.
Please give the solution.
having same problem. watched alot videos but not found anything. Bro if you can get an answer for please let me know.
I saw windows users patching iso file then running fine without error. maybe we also need to find the way how to patch our files
I accidentally clicked the x on the games tab how to I get it to pop back up
Thank you so much for this!
hey!I have a MacBook Air and I had no problems till the adding games.I really don't know why I don't get the ISO files.Where do you find directly ISO games?Thank you
try vimms lair
same
Vimm's lair ps3
If you download the file dobble click and it shows a folder 👍
it doesn't work for me cuz of compatibility issues
Great One Man. Stay Blessed & Happy
When i try to boot it says invalid/corrupted file. Do u know how to fix this?
Did you find the answer ?
@@1025840did you? After seeing this comment i'm scared to even try this process ahah
@@1025840did you find the answer?
You need to expand the file!
@@G-FORTY7 how bro😭
Is it possible to install it on a Mac Book Pro of 2012?
I followed all the tutorial, but when I try a game I have this message: Booting failed:
The selected file or folder is invalid or corrupted.
For information on setting up the emulator and dumping your PS3 games, read the quickstart guide.
can you help me?

i never wanted to by a ps 3 so thank you so much for this where do you get the games
I just deleted the program just to find out I had to do the file thing thanks to your tutorial I can do it later
I have an M1 Mac Mini, how well do these games run? Have you had any problems with any games?
the best tut out there!
Whis Is your Mac model?thanks a lot
Can someone be kind n tell me how to actually download a game after I install the emulator please ?
One of the best out there ☝🏻🥳👍🏻
I have an M1 Mac Mini with OS 13.16.1 when following the initial steps to open the emulator it crashed about ten times and just as i started writing this comment, it suddenly opens to the main menu! Some weird voodoo stuff is happening here.
Could you also suggest some settings if the games are lagging please.
tried to connect controller ps4 but didn't work, just show "disconnected". Anyone know what's happened?
You're amazing! I am enjoying it now. Thank you!
Question did it show the ps3 volume file thing for you because I can’t see to find it or have it while trying to download games
I keep getting error message: invalid or unsupported file format and Invalid file or folder
the iso files are throwing error the file of folder is corrupted
Thanks a lot man!
I love Tron: Evolution. Tron Legacy is my favorite film
Keeps saying "Booting failed: The selected file or folder is invalid or corrupted." when I load the game.
Where can I download the older builds. Is there any previous builds that worked on 10.4 Mojave?
First of all, thank you for the tutorial.
Second, whenever I start a game 'Booting failed: File is corrupted or invaid' error pops up. Any solution?(For Apple Mac M2)
Same here please help
@@AlwaysNaomi Bro I found the solution. Download from a site called virm’s lair.
For some Reason, I am using the 8BitDo SN30 Pro+ Controller. but its not recognizing the controller. Do you know why that is happening?
why nothing happens when i try add a game... i doing disc version so has 2 files and i put it in 1 folder. tried putting into the rpcs3 games folder aswel also not working HELPPPPP
Do you think a 2012 Mac would be too old 😬 ?
wondering this same thing
Probably not. I have a 2015 iMac and that can barely play some games
Definitely, the PS3 emulator only works soso on several games on my base M1, (15-20 FPS) with only some titles being what I'd call playable. The 2012 Processors/GPU's were far weaker than the 2020 M1 is.
youre a king Blaine
What spec you use it ? My spec Macbook 2015 16gb ram i7 intel iris and amd R9 gpu , can play ?
Awesome video! By any chance is there a way to play PS2 games through this emulator or is there a different one?
try pcsx2, find tutorials on youtube.
@@anderslander6591 Aether is better.
my questions:
how to make gamesave and save firmware?
is possible to jailbreak rpcs3? (ignore this question lamo)
Im struggling with downloading games. They just download as zip files?? Im so confused
great video
My games not loading his loading and freze with the information creating game data please do not quit or shut off the console
RPCS3 won't open on my Mac. help 😢
Do you have a patreon or can we get in touch
I would like to know if funding a particular video is possible
hey im Cole from new Zealand and I was wondering if you could possibly load disks because i have a old mac with a disk drive and games because I have a ps3 console
Uhh, my mac complaining about it cant start the emulator because its free from malware, and i also got the emulator from the original site it finally worked but every time i launch a game after the intro it shows of a black screen... its so stressful😰 and i have a mac book air monterey ver. 12.6
go to system settings then privacy and security. scroll down and it should let you allow it
i wanna know this software suitable for all machine of macos including hackintosh system?
Please don't lie for the sake of views, PS3 emulators still not working well in M1. I have tested dozen of games, and most of them don't works well.
Got stuck at opening the RPCS3 says it quit unexpectedly every time, don’t know what to do from here. Can someone help please.
Hi Blaine, is there rpcs3 for macos catalina? seem like even the oldest version in the link is for big sur
Having this same problem.
Apparently it only support 11.6+
Just wondering where I could find the link for the PS3 software? It would be greatly appreciated.
fr
It's really not that hard buddy. Obviously you can't say it in a video or the video gets taken down, all it takes is a couple brain cells and a quick google search. If you dont wanna do that, then upload the games directly from the physical ps3 copy
amazing man thanks! i only have 1 problem.. the firmware wont complete. its stuck at the red thread is too sleepy part
From where did u download PS3 VOLUME? Give me the link
"Booting failed: The selected file or folder is invalid or corrupted"
But why it can’t be run on ipad ? Isn’t the same architecture?
Can I do this and get College Football Reveamped or do I need a PC or PS3 to to that?
Booting failed: The selected file or folder is invalid or corrupted. any idea??
same i went through all videos posted on youtube no any clear idea about this. I saw windows users extracting iso with parch application and it is running perfectly for them. I have no idea how it works for us since it is exe file not dmg. I would be glad if you find an asnwer and let me know how to correct it.
Adding games poses to be a problem. Can you help with this?
Question. Why, instead of copying the game folder, not open it directly from the volume?
Any reason why my FPS is only 15?
Whats mac spec you using it ?
where to download games for the iso file I download doesn't have ps3_ files in it
Hi, you said any bluetooth gamepad would work but i connected my pro controller to mac but it didn't show up on the pad section of rpcs3. Any suggestions? (PS I don't have my ps4 controller)
I think for now the RPCS3 artifacts are only able to map the DS4 controller. Especially when you connect it with a cable, it will work flawlessly. It also works with Bluetooth of course.
I can’t find the ps4 update to download 😭
How and where do i download the actual games I’m looking for?
I need help Blaine some of my games that im downloading show as a pmg but when clicked on doesn't show the ps3volume thing that shows for you. im getting frustrated, please anyone help!
some one can help, I have an error, it says "E GUI: Boot failed: reason: Invalid file or folder, path"
every single thing worked except booting the game :(
does it connect to a switch pro controller?
Can you help with doing the ps2 mod by using a Mac? Half the downloads I can’t open
Where is the link to download the playstation update?
does anybody know the link to downloading the playstation 3 software, he didn't put the link down in the description. I would appreciate the punctuality.
When I boot up a game, after loads it, I just get a black screen
for me it sais rpsc3 caanot be opened because the developer canot be verified
Hey this setup for me perfectly but my games freeze randomly is there any fix for this?
Is this only for M1 users?
do u hav to pay for the games?
why is my games not supported. i followed what you ddid
hey, when i click from keyboard to dualshock4 its says ds4 pad (disconnected) and doesn't let me save or change any of the pad settings, even though its connected to the blue tooth it isn't recognised in the app. any ideas why?
Where should I get my ps3 games to play on this emulator
Yo Blaine! I recently repaired/restored an original Xbox and after turning it on I found out it is softmodded. Just trying to figure out how to restore the Xbox to factory settings so I can start over with updated mods. Can’t for the life of me find an option to uninstall unleashx, just want the default Microsoft dashboard to start when I turn it on. Can’t find anything helpful online. Keep in mind, I’m new to modding and don’t know anything. Please help me out!
Nice video, but seriously these click sounds are annoying af...
thanks for the tutorial, but i am facing black screen issues
same, been trying to run GTA IV and V with no luck at all
