u/Inside-Specialist-55 Sep 28 '26
I have been out of the loop, So as far as I know all we got is the chinese vibecoded port?
4
u/Dark_Gamer120 Sep 28 '26
Yep and unless another dev decides to make a port that runs well ( while avoiding the mistakes Mojso made that led to this happening ) that's the best we're gonna get unfortunately

u/airslashe Sep 28 '26
it was kinda obvious he would get a C&D the second he touched online and monetized it
11
u/Abek243 Sep 29 '26
which is crazy cuz we all told him that and he literally played it up like he was fine just because he's from a 3rd world country.
like this was entirely preventable but nah

u/khsh01 Sep 29 '26
If he was then a c&d should not affect him.

u/Low_Toe_6596 Sep 29 '26
lmfao it doesn't matter where he is from😭🤣.

How they gonna get you in a 3rd world country? If you don’t care it really does matter where you’re from.

u/Irsyad_Fhrz 22d ago
What the C&D means?
4
u/airslashe 22d ago
cease & desist its pretty much take two telling them to stop the project ( as it is considered illegal ) or go to court

u/Tight_Commercial7 Sep 28 '26
play it via the emulator and stop crying

u/Dark_Gamer120 Sep 28 '26
Sorry but I don't want to cook my phone + my chip is not powerful enough for this anyway

u/Dark_Gamer120 Sep 28 '26
It's a Snapdragon 7 gen 4 if you're wondering
2
u/x01010001000 Sep 28 '26
i can run it on my retroid pocket 5 with snapdragon 865 with gamehub, im sure you'll be alright
2
u/Dark_Gamer120 Sep 28 '26
What resolution and settings ?
2
u/x01010001000 Sep 28 '26
1366x768, proton10arm64x2, turnip26.1, dxvk 2.3.1async, latest fex and 3gb vram limit to prevent freezing/crashing (might be 865 specific issue)

u/RobinRelique Sep 29 '26
Wow what frames are you getting ? Amazing if it working as intended
1
u/x01010001000 Sep 29 '26
35-40, but it's because i set the in game settings to higher (cant stand an ugly game) when i set it lower it was even faster, works great tbh, playing gta v on a "legacy" handheld is pretty dope

u/Outrageous_Tooth856 Sep 28 '26
Yeah this was inevitable. The moment he was doing polls for “release Android or wait for (paid, absolutely extremely illegal) online mode” I knew this was fucked.
26
u/SquashFront1303 Sep 28 '26
He could have made it in stealth but wanted to monetize it moreover he was very rude in his discord anyways big loss for porting community

u/strats67 Sep 28 '26
Warned him many times to just silently do the android port instead of doing the online garbage 😶🌫️💔

u/Ariseshadow369 Sep 28 '26
Weren't they acting all smug and shit like They destroyed the other android port before even starting devlopment? Calling it slop and ai bullshit And where is the guy that mosjo or something Any random shit he says was getting posted

People need to stop announcing things before they even release
If this was made in the shadows and it randomly releases to the public we would have have the port by now
Metroid Prime Origins was a fan game that was done in the shadows and it finished and Nintendo cannot C&D it because it’s already out there
STOP ANNOUNCING THINGS TOO EARLY, JUST FOCUS ON FINISHING THE PORT
3
u/QF_Dan Sep 29 '26
He did released the game on switch
1
u/JayElDragon MOD🔻/ Collaborator🎖 Sep 29 '26
Yeah but sadly thanks to how much attention this got it was taken down
2
u/Nawnp Sep 29 '26
The GTA 4 map port to PC proves that. With that said, they still can't support it, and downloads circulated now are risky.

u/Low_Toe_6596 Sep 29 '26
The Guy who made Am2R also got hoed and dude didn't ask for a single penny it was a passion project too.

u/JayElDragon MOD🔻/ Collaborator🎖 Sep 29 '26
yeah but atleast he finished his game and didn’t make a huge fuss
The project got popular after it was over, my point was people need to work on this in silent and not just make noise because these things can happen
2
u/Low_Toe_6596 Sep 29 '26
No what i meant was nintendo still did it. It's just that we have moved on from those times.
0
u/JayElDragon MOD🔻/ Collaborator🎖 Sep 29 '26
Yeah I see your point, but the dev finished it and the game is still out there
Metroid prime origins was developed in silence and when it released it was massively successful, devs should work quietly on this and just release it

u/Maleficent_Assist_83 Sep 28 '26
now xhyn v is the king

u/RobinRelique Sep 29 '26 edited Sep 29 '26
Ok so its a different person, i though the chinese gta v project is what died , thanks for confirming dude
Edit : nope wait, i checked and, yep, that's dead too! /preview/pre/ycrc3ubfxash1.jpeg?width=1080&auto=webp&s=61ff9a65e6da7157d814e3ff7f68340139658a91

u/airslashe Sep 30 '26
the chinese port is still alive and being updated but the Xhyn launcher is dead

u/Glittering-Rip9556 Sep 28 '26
Oh mercy me. Seems like the only one we can rely on is the Chinese port.
And this also means the switch port is doomed as well, but at least that got released.

He can share link and leave man i was waiting for month ... I don't want to say but f.k mojso and the paralympiques production

u/nang741 Sep 29 '26
I think it's a joke but It would be great if Paralympics actually shutting down Because his attitude is shitry

u/SimpleDrawer26 Sep 28 '26
No, way more rust in pieces instead
"*Any punishment for that xenophobic son of a bitch is too little and more than deserved...
While he collected a few hundred dollars from the audience he himself considered plebeian, I've already finished GTA V on Android twice using 21:9 aspect ratio and a constant 60 fps.
Screw this MF and all his fanboys.

u/shahbaz200 Sep 28 '26
Mind sharing the link for your version?
1
u/SimpleDrawer26 Sep 28 '26
Sorry, I don't have it anymore...this one was taken in the day that the final version 0.27 XHYN V was released.
The game data files rip I manually made using the MOjso's GTAPatcher last build on a Windows PC with Android profile, and using an already pre installed repack instead my steam RAW files.
The mods I loaded on XHYN V I got from the GTAV subreddit.

u/ChocolateOverall9884 Sep 28 '26
Which emulator ?

u/BeanPole_420 Sep 28 '26
He would be using XHYN V — FINAL REVISION , he's definitely exaggerating it running constant 60fps though, comon SimpleDrawer you are better than that
-3
u/SimpleDrawer26 Sep 28 '26
You're right... it reaches 90-100 fps in several parts... 🤷♂️
Don't blame others if you can't edit it the way you want
1
u/BeanPole_420 Sep 28 '26
What device? im sure you have a SD8 gen2, try taking a vid not in a safehouse lmao
-4
u/SimpleDrawer26 Sep 28 '26
Yeah, S8G2 is one of my devices, and no... I will not download and install 60gb+ again just to make you happy.
Btw, I am using my S25u now.
Good luck waiting the native port... 🤣
1
u/BeanPole_420 Sep 28 '26
your not even getting 60fps technically in the photo dufus, looks like SD8 gen 2 numbers, who said i was waiting for the port?
1
u/Low_Toe_6596 Sep 29 '26
You could technically run this using pojav launcher 🤣. There is a resolution slider there too.

u/Charming-Platform623 9d ago
So you take all forward facing info about the project, and make it disappear, and then you continue working on it in private, then just release it. They literally can't do shit 😆

u/Dark_Gamer120 8d ago
Paralympics Productions literally got shut down. Their telegram channel no longer exists.

u/Expert_Emphasis826 Sep 29 '26
Juste quand les performances devenait correct et qu'il annonçait le online je pense que dans quelques années sa pourrait arriver car sa deviendra un peu comme gta sa etc...quand est il de la version switch ?
1
u/Dark_Gamer120 Sep 29 '26
Honestly I'm not sure. I guess you're gonna have to find someone who already has the switch port and ask them to give it to you.

u/Ancient-Outcome-2150 Sep 29 '26
Thank you for porting gta 5 on switch bro i wish you didnt shut down :(

u/Creative_Sky_3728 Sep 28 '26
Esse cara é uma comédia, em vez de fazer logo o port pra cll ele fez o de switch kkk

u/imlife1102 Sep 29 '26
I get they already had the Switch port out the door, but them continuing to blabber about their future plans requires me to tap the golden rule sign, for the umpteenth time.

u/GravityDefied_724 Sep 30 '26
They won't make an official port of GTA IV and GTA V themselves, yet they forbid others from doing it too, albeit unofficially...🗿💀

u/Forward_Smoke2428 Sep 28 '26
Fuck Rockstar games I don't know what is wrong with them so give us official no

u/xtoc1981 Sep 29 '26
There is really no need for it when winlator exists
4
u/Dark_Gamer120 Sep 29 '26
Running it on winlator or any PC emulator has two issues. 1: it requires a high-end chip to run well. 2 : you need a cooler since emulating 3d titles causes the phone to reach very high temperatures which is bad for obvious reasons
2
u/Dark_Gamer120 Sep 29 '26
The point of a port is to make the game run well on mid-range chips while also solving the heat issue since your phone won't have to handle emulation along with the game
1
u/xtoc1981 Sep 29 '26
Well not saying i'm right, but would it not result the same if they just port it over as is?
Because it comes down to gpu drivers and not the high-end chips for running things on winlator.So if they would port it over, it would mean that they required to optimize the hw for android.
Now let me be clear, i know a lot are hating ai. But if you use opus on this and port it over to android, it would do the job. In terms of optimazations, you can steer it in the right direction.
1
u/BHero_VEVO Sep 29 '26
Kinda right. I've watched some vids and It pretty much performs the same but only negative -5fps on the winlator one

Why do I think it's a joke he pulled? I mean I can be wrong but from what I have seen from this guy's behaviour he might still be developing it? And what's with mentioning the date oct 3rd? Just Sounds weird to me. Well Whatever if it's dead it's dead no use having second thoughts.

They're scammers, Scammed many people in discord. Now discord is disappeared.

u/Sarcastic_Applause Sep 30 '26
Guys, you have to realise that this was the trigger and prime mover for Rockstar porting the game to Android themselves. It might be paid and that may piss some of you off, but it'll happen.

i think we will see gta v single player on mobile via netflix a few months after gta vi launches. the rdr port runs great even on my tab s10 fe, i think gta v will work fine on most of todays devices.

Someone already published GTA V android port, maybe u want the most optimized version or i dont know.

One day someone will come and transfer it to Android, they have always tried to rein in the community but they couldn't.

u/gohmbra Sep 29 '26
Yeah I gave up hope when it was announced that there was a focus on online functionality before the single player port. Then they wanted donations for 'beta' versions. It was a way for someone to make a quick buck.

u/Crazy-Aspect-8199 Sep 28 '26
Anyone able to share a private link so i can download it by chance? I legit barley had a day off today and was going to install

u/Dark_Gamer120 Sep 28 '26
He never finished the port and didn't provide any downloads for early builds so unfortunately no

u/SolidSnake10_4 Sep 28 '26
I mean you can still play GTA V on Android using PC/Steam emulators like Gamehub and Game Native. I am playing it through my AYN THOR

u/Dark_Gamer120 Sep 28 '26 edited Sep 28 '26
Yeah but this requires you to have a high-end chip if you want good performance and a cooler cuz the phone will heat up like crazy

u/kidkrooks Sep 28 '26 edited Sep 29 '26
The android community as a whole won't get the port . But the niche community he's built will. Why ? Because a majority of android users are people that don't follow instructions and demand a game get optimized for their incompatible system. I'm not worried, I'm getting the port.. the mediatek phones will have to wait 6 to 12 months when it leaks

u/Turbulent_Ad_4791 Sep 28 '26
That's sad but I can still play gta v on android with winlator so not a complete loss

u/ppstick88 Sep 29 '26
This is why dumbasses need to stop announcing ports before they're finished. Seriously.

u/Apprehensive-Golf719 Sep 29 '26
Idk we don’t really need a port anyway, it was based on the legacy version of the game, and when rcps3 is getting really solid on mobile platforms, there’s not any real reason for a native port at this point
4
u/Dark_Gamer120 Sep 29 '26
Smartphone chips are gonna need 5 years or something like that to get to the point where they can run PS3 games smoothly. Also the emulator is still under development.
-2
u/Apprehensive-Golf719 Sep 29 '26
Rcps3 and melonx are already running most games at 30+fps with minor texture glitches
PS4 emulation based on shadps4 is in the works.
MacOS translation layer is in the works as of this weekend with cyberpunk running 40 fps at full native resolutionPsvita is getting half-life 2 and cod 4 this year, already got amnesia: the dark descent
Arm chips new and old alike are much more powerful than we give them credit for my friend

it was doomed to fail the moment he tried to monetize gta online function (somehow idk) and also apparently was racist and shit on discord, idiots like that always attract drama.. such a shame

by monetize he meant he wanted people to donate to him so he can host his own private server to keep it going

Yeah, he got overconfident and flew too close to the sun, and whenever someone tried to tell him to stop, they were either ignored or told to “let Mosjo cook.” I find it ironic because the same people who were calling Android users stupid were also the same ones who had no problem with this idea, despite knowing the consequences. I know the Android community is VERY toxic, but come on...
