This latest build along with plenty of information can be found on RPCS3's official website.The original Red Dead Redemption with emulation could soon become playable on the PC. Its latest milestone was rewriting texture instructions to utilize sRGB colorspace, fixing many of the shadow and bloom problems found in the prior version.

The project has been a much more difficult undertaking than any of its team members originally imagined.
