PS3 HLE Module Status

Status of HLE (High-Level Emulation) implementations for PS3 system modules in ps3recomp.

Legend:

• Not Started: No implementation exists
• Stubbed: Functions exist but only log and return CELL_OK
• Partial: Core functions implemented, advanced features missing
• Complete: Fully functional for known game use cases

Counts are the module rows above (the ones with a Category column) whose Status column holds each value. Recount one status with grep -c '^| [^|]* | [^|]* | Partial |' docs/MODULE_STATUS.md; for Complete use \*\*Complete\*\* in place of Partial.

Next Priorities

1. Metal and Vulkan at D3D12 parity — the shared draw engine runs guest shaders on both; a title has yet to run on either from this tree
2. cellSpurs — the remaining SPURS surface (Taskset2, workload edge cases)
3. cellAdec / cellDmux / cellSail — Real audio decode and PAMF demux on the run-time FFmpeg loader cellVdec uses (libs/codec/ffmpeg_runtime.c)
4. cellJpgEnc / cellPngEnc — Integrate stb_image_write for actual encoding
5. Remaining niche modules — cellAdecExt, cellAudioExt, and any other game-specific needs
