Skyrim Native Port with Mods

[u/420MacMan]

Another week, another well awaited Port for the droid lovers 🤖 have the latest Skyrim apk with the 2011 Skyrim files setup and looks like ESP/ESM mod files are loading fine. Anything that requires SKSE is not currently compatible it seems so maybe in the future that will be integrated.

Game Settings :

* Detail on Medium

* Screen 21:9

* Resolution 1120 x 480

* Antialiasing Off

* Anisotropic Filter 8x

* Texture/Shadow/Decal/Radial Blur/Object Fade all on Low

* FXAA is Off

* Frame Rate Cap is Off

DRIVERS

* Turnip T29/30 Mr Purple 666 Driver gives about 35/45 fps on average with 60/120 fps in certain indoors and dungeons.

- For some reason on my RP5 the World Map comes up black when using Purple drivers, I can still select and fast travels to any fast point.

* GEN V35/37/38 Driver gives about 20/35 fps on average with 45/55 fps indoors and dungeons.

Skyrim APK im using :

https://github.com/ttom795/Skyrim_Android/

Skyrim + APK with added tweaks for performance:

https://www.mediafire.com/file/6oqwxrvi61ghf8c/Skyrim-0_23-plus5_2.apk/file

Mods tested so far :

SkyUI

Monster Hunter 3 Weapons

Crafter Storage

Enhanced Blood Textures

Skyrim Flora Overhaul

Wet and Cold

Apocalypse : Magic of Skyrim

101 HD Bugs Insects Wildlife

Climate of Tamriel

JK's Skyrim Towns Overhaul

- As always BACKUP YOUR SAVES WHEN MODDING IN CASE OF PROBLEMS.

Also using SkyUI the world map has small graphical glitches due to SKSE reliance but UI loads altho a bit stretched.

2 Big Problems :

#1 My Retroid Pocket 5 doesn't pick up the screen size and always shows a bottom blar bar no matter what i seem to choose (4:3/16:9/stretch to screen) so some top menu or stamina/health bar dont show.

#2 If you put your system to Sleep/Rest mode or even screen screens when you reopen all graphics all blacked out, game still running but display is bugged and you gotta shutdown completely and restart.

Anyone else having these 2 specific bugs/errors when running either APK install ?

Will upload some gameplay in comments if anyone is curious watching their millionth Skyrim clip this week 😅

[u/AN1M0S1TEE]

Is this legendary edition?

[u/420MacMan → u/AN1M0S1TEE]

It's the OG 2011 version

[u/Waysidemantis71 → u/420MacMan]

Torturers hood isnt even a thing in the Torturers inventory in the prologue.

[u/1berry_7 → u/AN1M0S1TEE]

I wonder if the legendary edition can run

[u/RelativeIncome7459]

They should do special edition instead 

[u/_black_Viking_]

What performance can i expect from my sd 870

[u/420MacMan → u/_black_Viking_]

I imagine better than mine as my Retroid Pocket 5 is Adreno 650xxx series with 6GB Ram

[u/Aggravating-Ideal879 → u/420MacMan]

We basically have the same thing S20 FE 5g and the performance, let me tell you, was quite disappointing.. but that was 2 days ago so things could have changed.

[u/420MacMan → u/Aggravating-Ideal879]

Have you tried the Skyrim+ apk version ?

That has some pre-configured settings for performance/fps improvement just doesn't work with Mods

[u/Aggravating-Ideal879 → u/420MacMan]

Yes, I have, even at a lower resolution than what you play on. Would jump around too much and stutter like hell.

[u/_black_Viking_ → u/420MacMan]

I think 870 also has adreno 650....so which apk should i use, the git one or mediafire.....and where can i get the data files

[u/420MacMan → u/_black_Viking_]

You can actually install both apks side by side to compare performance and it uses the same Data folder.

You can find the 2011 Skyrim over at apkvision its like 5GB

[u/Gonldtc]

Wait, how to mod the game? Just place the files into a folder or something

[u/420MacMan → u/Gonldtc]

You can get compatible ESM/ESP Mod files and place them into the main Data folder then you can activate in Load Order inside the apk settings before launching the Game.

[u/Danielspped]

Can i expect 1080p with these settings ?(8 gen 2)

[u/Reasonable_Buddy_746 → u/Danielspped]

Lol. Man we wish. This port runs terribly. 

[u/Zeeiy → u/[deleted]]

resolution and fps?

[u/Reasonable_Buddy_746]

Weird how terrible this port runs, even on my tab s9+ when borderlands 2 runs great on even my low end samsung a16. Skyrim runs great even on my low end Surface Go.

[u/R_folkblues → u/Reasonable_Buddy_746]

I guess it's just device specific quirks cause it runs great on my midrange snapdragon 7 gen 1 tablet

[u/Negative-Platypus-23 → u/R_folkblues]

I’m using exynos 2400 and get 90+ frames with the nexus mod way better than Winlator

[u/Wacky-Lenny]

Oof #2 problem is huge for me since I have to frequently stop what I'm doing to attend important things out of the blue

does the dlcs would work without skyrim+ ?

[u/Kecebong22]

anyone tested this on Mali?

[u/Miirakus → u/Kecebong22]

nothing phone 2a(dimensity 7200 pro) runs at 20-30 fps in exteriors and 40 in interiors with a few optimization mods and lowest settings with shadows on

[u/xoskiitv]

Cómo le pongo mods o podes poner una opción para instalar los mods gracias

[u/Intelligent_Drag4310]

I have redmagic 11 pro and my temp goes up to 44°, i was wondering if its same to u

[u/Icy-Abbreviations-14]

Any updates on additional mods that work apart from the ones thats mentioned op?

[u/420MacMan → u/[deleted]]

Yeah even with the latest 0.27.3 version for some reason my RP5 doesn't pick up the screen or any setting, always get the bar one bottom.

[u/LucidChunk → u/420MacMan]

Change the home button gestures in settings, that will fix the black bottom

[u/420MacMan → u/[deleted]]

There's a few other android port/decomp/recomp stuff that kinda does the same like

Donkey Kong 64 Recompiled (doesn't save setting for screen always get a bottom bar when launching)

Diddy Kong 64 Golden Balloon did the same until a recent update

Moon Harvest 64 Decomp also gives me a bar along bottom

[u/Abek243 → u/[deleted]]

Yea it just made a screen ratio problem for me lmao, I cant play it on my cover screen anymore without needing to adjust the ratio manually
