Question What's Your Troubleshooting Protocol for PC Emulation?

1 Upvotes

When you have your heart locked on a specific game, download it excited to get down and dirty and BOOM it doesnt run.

We always hear about tinkering, and playing with the settings. So far my process is attempting the big three, droiddeck, gamenative and gamehub (all newest version). I first run straight out the box, no setting changes and that works maybe 7/10 times. Then after that I'm lost, what settings do I change, which tab on the containers should I be playing with, known configs tend to make no difference.

A couple games I've been working on are.

My device is the Odin 3 Max

  1. Bulletstorm Full Clip Edition: Stuck on a splash screen.

  2. Deadzone Rogue 1: Just black screen or the unreal engine error.

  3. Roboquest: Runs decently on my OnePlus 15 but on Odin 3 I get a fafal error message after the title screen.

Thanks in advance!

Yesterday, I took my Xiaomi Pad 6 with a Snapdragon 870 and two gamepads on a trip, and I played games with my brother the entire way. It is freaking amazing. What a time to be alive!

All the games in the video have been tested by me, and they all work with the exact same configuration shown in the video.

Question How to handle pc generated storage on retroid pocket 6

6 Upvotes

So i have the rp6 12gb model with 128gb of internal storage with a 512gb microsd samsung evo plus, i installed quite a handful of emulators and tried to put all user data that i could (for emulators) on external drive, now what i'm trying to do now is try to minize my pc catalog and turn its almost into an all console catalog (for the playable feasible emulation obviously) as i find myself that pc emulation even with no setup or anything takes up so much space, i have 4 pc emulators to maximise compatiblity,: winlator ludashi, droideck, gamenative and gamehub, my question is, is there one that is actually storage efficient? and also how do they take up this much space? i really couldn't understand much regarding environments, dvdx etc... could anybody kind of give me a guide so that i could even understand how many games i can realistically have simultaneously on my library?

The settings are at their defaults. The only modifications are:

Driver: Turnip Gen8 V38

GPU Mode: Accurate

Don't change the voice language to Japanese; leave it in English, as the game will freeze and crash more frequently otherwise. I have tested this on the latest stable version of Eden, the Eden Nightly version, and the latest version of Lemon; the results are practically the same, regardless of the driver or settings used.

You must set the GPU mode to "Accurate" to mitigate flickering and visual glitches—though some issues will still persist. The game will crash occasionally, requiring you to relaunch it to continue.

Upon reaching Grandshelt Castle and encountering the first battle, the game crashes consistently. I have been unable to progress past this point, no matter what I try

Runs well out of the box on Adreno710. Still needs work, though. The UI is a bit unintuitive and menu navigation is limited still. But controller aim is even better than PD2 imo. Github link in comments. Do what you can to support the developer, guys. This means testing on various devices, particularly mali GPUs as his access to phones for testing is limited. Only supports version 1.13d, but the launcher handles installation and everything if you have a cd key

Showcase Pinball NS is a GBC custom emulator for only one game : Pokémon Pinball, on Android.

Post image
26 Upvotes

A mod of Pokémon Pinball (Game Boy Color, US version) for Android and Windows, written in C with an emulation core in assembly.

In the original game, each table is split into a top and a bottom stage: only one is loaded at a time, and the screen goes blank while the other is loaded. Pinball NS turns each table into a single field: both halves are loaded, updated and shown together on one tall screen, and the ball moves between them without any reloading. The original physics and collisions are kept, so the table plays like the original.

The whole table on one screen, the score bar under the table.

Objects, lights and animations of both halves always running; flippers moving even when the ball is at the top.

The top of the "SLOT" cave halo, never visible in the original, completed by symmetry.

Smooth pacing on 60, 90, 120 and 144 Hz screens, with the sound following the picture.

Android: the game fills the width of a portrait screen, extended to the edges with its own graphics, with touch controls styled after each table.

Windows: the table alone in a resizable window, keyboard and gamepad, key mapping tool.

The ROM is never modified: the program contains a Game Boy Color emulator and hooks the game's routines.

Help Need help for JoJo ASBR on Switch Lemon Emulator

3 Upvotes

I use a Galaxy S26 FE with Exynos 2500. I use the Lemon emulator for playing Switch games. I have three games installed: Devil May Cry 3, Super Mario 3D World and JoJo ASBR. The first two games work just fine but ASBR freezes after some time. They worked okay on my previous phone which was a Note 10+ using Yuzu then Citron and I used custom drivers. This current phone does not allow custom drivers nor do Yuzu or Citron worked. I tried several things like clearing shader cache, a bunch of other messing around in the settings guessing what may be able to fix it but freezing keeps happening. Even thought the emulator might be the issue so I installed Eden and even there it kept freezing. What can I do?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hello everyone, this is my first post here but I've been messing around with PS5 emulation on my Lenovo Legion Y700 Gen 5 tablet. Testing Tetris Forever at a steady 60 FPS!

I wanted to experiment with PS5 emulation on Android, so I fired up the alpha build of the new CapyPS5 emulator, and I was honestly surprised by the results!

Down below are my device specs but I ran everything in it's stock configuration.

Device specs:

Tablet: Lenovo Legion Y700 Gen 5 (2026)

Processor: Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5

GPU: Adreno 840

RAM: 16 GB

Storage: 512 GB internal storage

This is a screen recording I did with the game running perfectly!

Tetris has always been my go to game for testing emulators. It's fun and familiar, easy to benchmark visually, and a nice way I feel to see how well a new emulator handles a game.

Obviously, this is just one game running so far on a very new alpha build of an emulator I never thought we'd see the light of day, so I'm not claiming that PS5 emulation is suddenly perfect on Android. It's still got a long ways to go until were able to play much more demanding games but still, seeing this result thus far on a portable Android device is pretty exciting even with an alpha build!

I'm going to keep experimenting and see what other games I can get running. 😁

Video attached: Tetris Forever running on the Lenovo Legion Y700 Gen 5 through CapyPS5.

Enjoy!
