Windows building: https://www94.zippyshare.com/v/fRItIexu/file.html

MacOS building: You have to build it yourself because of exec files. It cannot be moved anywhere if you know what I am talking about. No application (.app file) available just yet. He is working on it.

This is a good post ant the features that you write are perfect but why I struggle building my own PSX Emulator when now you have just go to some website and download it with only one click. This building the emulator through DuckStation if I'm correct is by yourself the ones who love to do that kind of thing. For the ones like me who don't know that much things just download the emulator and play the games :) :)

I am quite not sure what you are talking about. Is there something I can do to help you with your problem ?

I like it. It has a romlist (Looking at you, ePSXe), is a breeze to set up, and has a pleasant interface, two, even. Compatibility seems solid. This may be my go-to emulator for PS1 games from now on, I really like what I'm seeing.
