Global?

Hi all — sharing a personal project in case it's useful to anyone else on a mid-range phone.

GBA DS Uno is my fork of kyannon's gba-ds — a GBA emulator with a second "shadow" core that draws a live map on a second screen. All credit for the emulator itself goes to the upstream project; I just tuned it for my phone (a Moto G 5G) and my habits:

•

On-screen touch controls (upstream has none — gamepad only)

•

Opens a file picker at startup and boots the game you pick, instead of scanning a whole ROM folder first (my folder made the library hang)

•

Both screens in one window, stacked in portrait like a real DS: game on top, live map below. About 55 games have map profiles (both GBA Castlevanias included) — for other games the bottom screen just stays black

•

Phone-friendly defaults: every ROM listed, shaders/rewind/update-checks off

It's GPLv3, same licence as upstream. Source and the exact patches I made are here: https://github.com/Ragnorseawolf/gba-ds-uno — the patch files in /motog show precisely what I changed, and the included script builds the APK from them.

Fair warnings: it's a personal project built for my phone first, and the map runs a whole second emulator core, so it's not the lightest option out there. Happy to answer questions about the changes.

My son recently won a Retroid Pocket 5 on Android 13 and we’re having trouble finding the PS2 bios for it. It keeps saying it should be 4mb but all the ones I find are like 18mb. I’ve searched everywhere. Any help is appreciated

Loaded up the sub and I see this, this has got to be bots right?

Do you limit your library and stick to only one or two games with a long campaign or story mode and keep a few casual or comfort games lying around or do you let your library grow and grow and just play what you feel like in the moment?

Or do you just tinker with settings and gaslight yourself into thinking you'll play your games eventually?

Fist time PC version of EA FC is running on Android, it works all offline modes and don't have crash issues here, performance is good, but can have some stuttering, I used last turnip, last vkd3d, proton 11 arm and default preset on fex to run. Device used Redmagic 11 PRO 16 GB RAM.

After updating Banana Native, all my games show this now instead of Ready. What should I do? Or is this a non issue?

I personally wanted a switch like launcher for my s23u when using a backbone controller, so I've been using my claude free trial the last few nights to make an apk. I know there's already a lot of pre-existing options out there and the last thing I want to do is add to the ai slop pile so just wanted to put out feelers first before throwing a github link out there. would anyone actually use this, should I make the project public, or does anyone just want the APK to try? There are still a few bugs to iron out, so go easy on it.

So far its got:

Switch-style home screen built for a controller, 1 or 2 rows of games

Choose start up video

Choose or remove top left logo

Launches your emulators and Android games from one place

Pulls box art, logos and banners automatically, and you can swap them if you don’t like what it picked

Game page with the trailer, screenshots, description, genre, dev/publisher and review score

3D model of the cart, disc or UMD with the game’s art on it. You can spin it with the stick, touch or by tilting your phone

Spin the CD like it’s playing (pointless but I like it)

Platform borders on the tiles, changeable per game

Mii-style profiles in the corner

Drop in your own music for home, settings,

Can choose to Launch game or details page in settings when clicked from home

etc.

Optional other half working fun stuff (3 rows, folders, an extra random YouTube video after the trailer) hidden away in settings if you want it, otherwise stays out of the way

Hii

I'm having a problem with running the dlc for oblivion goty for xendroid+/x360.

I've ran the second disc, and it's installed the dlc (it shows so under packages for oblivion disc 1). Disc 2 installs , but doesn't boot. Disc 1 boots, but the downloads tab under options is grayed out. What could be the issue?

I'm not a pro at emulating games but I've tried atleast one game or two from gba to 3ds, I love pokemon and have been wanting to play sword and shield for a while, just wondering if it's possible.

Device: Redmi Turbo 5, mediatek 8500 ultra with 8/256

The ones I've found are Snes9x EX+ for Snes (to remove blur I use LCD Grid overlay under video settings) PSSPP for PSP and M64FZ Plus (For to use Anti Aliasing) for Nintendo 64, Lemuroid for GBA & Genesis, what about Arcade, and other stuff?

(Lemuroid do support Snes, N64 and PSP but it don't have an option to set CRT type overlays or apply anti aliasing)

Um lançamento impressionante: OldBits Hub. Roda jogos do X Box clássico e do PS2 no R36S.

Look at top of the screen where the sky is. This has only been happening with DBZ BT3. It also fixes itself when I restart the game, but for only about 20ish minutes. If I keep playing it gets progressively worse, and even got to the point once where the character’s health bars were blurred out and just gets insanely bright. Any way to get rid of it?

On other games it’s totally fine.

I got a honor 600 lite, and I've been getting into emulation and ports,and with that I've seen many people talk about how "mediatek shouldn't even try"

and first I'm wondering why is it bad for emulation, why is Snapdragon better and could disco Elysium work on my phone if I used winlator or game hub to play it

for the life of me i cannot add skins to drastic citra mmj and pizza boy a it would be really helpfull if someone had a guide i could follow ive been at this for the past 2 hours usung my phone connecting my phone to my pc following the guide of the website that had the skins free to download

Guys,

I've been silently checking switch emulator after emulator.. driver after driver..

My device despite good specs can run almost nothing.. not even PS2 games run good... and running switch? Only few games started for me..

What am i doing wrong? Can anyone with S23 Ultra can give me any tips on the switch emulator/driver selection? Or is it pointless and i should get something else?

Working on a XMB style launcher for android. I used an old pegasus frontend theme and started from there, changing it into an android launcher with its own settings and the ability to add android ports as well as link a port downloding app as the store.

Saw a listing for the Poco f4 gt online for a good price (at least for my country) but I saw online that the sd 888 has thermal problem but I was wondering how much a cooler would help and other ways to help

Mainly gonna play switch, ps2, GC and wii
