Dead Nation on PC
Release deadnation-pc-v0.1-2026-11-12

You need a decrypted dump of your own copy of the PS4 game (CUSA00236, with its 1.03 update): the folder
with eboot.bin, sce_module, sce_sys, audio.pck and stream.dat. No game files are included.

1. Run deadnation-setup.exe. Pick the game folder and where your saves go, then press Install.
   It prepares the game from your dump (a few seconds) and offers a desktop shortcut.
2. Press Play Game, or later start deadnation.exe or the shortcut.
3. Optional: settings.exe changes the game's options (window, aspect ratio, resolution, FPS,
   sharpening, speakers, skip intro) without starting it, on the game's own menu look.

Run deadnation-setup.exe again to change the game or save folder. After unpacking a newer release
over this folder, run it once more: it keeps your folders and settings.

In the game: F10, or Select (Share/View) held for two seconds, opens the display settings (window,
resolution, VSync, 30/60/90/120/144/180/240 FPS); F4, Select+Start, or Back on the title screen, asks to close the game.

settings.ini (made by the setup) holds the window, audio and control options; one in your save
folder is read instead, and the display settings and settings.exe save there. If the game stops, the reason is in
deadnation.log, in the log folder of your save folder. Shader caches are kept in shaders\
next to the game.

Needs Windows 10/11 x64, a CPU with AVX and a GPU with Vulkan 1.3.
