Parasite Eve: PlayStation static recompilation
This statically recompiles the two-disc USA release of Parasite Eve with PSXRecomp and recomp-ui. Both discs contain the same executable, and each passed a startup test. Release 0.3.3 is Windows x64. The v0.3.5 packages add Linux x64 and macOS on Apple Silicon and Intel, and remain candidates until their startup gates pass. OpenBIOS covers setup.
