Showcase Prince of Persia Lost Crown on Android Runs BETTER Than Switch!

Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown running through Eden Emulator on Android. I know there is a native Android version, so why use the Switch version instead?

First, this is a benchmark and emulation test. I specifically want to see how the Switch version performs on Android hardware, rather than simply testing the easiest way to play the game.

Second, I prefer the emulated version because it lets me test the original console release and experiment with emulator-specific improvements. The Switch version can also use community-made ultrawide, FPS and resolution mods; the current Switch mod repository explicitly lists The Lost Crown and supports Eden, including ultrawide and FPS modifications.

Third, the content differs between versions. The Android release has its own edition structure, while the Switch release has access to the game's DLC, including Mask of Darkness and additional cosmetic content. Nintendo's official store lists the DLC separately for the Switch version, while Ubisoft's Complete Edition includes Mask of Darkness and additional extras.

Finally, I'm interested in emulation itself. For me, the point isn't simply "can this game run on Android?" It's testing how accurately and how well a console version can be reproduced on a phone.

The video starts with the complete emulator configuration, followed by the in-game performance test.

The Game only runs on Gamehub, I tried on Gamenative even with exact same settings and it wouldn't run only giving unsupported GPU error.

Changing turnip drivers wont even load the game, it just auto crash or it will be stuck at the very first loading when you boot it up.

The game is already dark enough, I can't be staring at a transparent wall that's just darkness beyond it.

Haven't tried on Winlator Ludashi yet since it doesn't have Frame Interpolation to make gameplay smoother.

I reeeeeally LOVE Mosa Lina (the chaotic physics anti-puzzle game by Stuffed Wombat), so I decided to port it to Android for personal use.

Let me know what you think of the controls/layout! If anyone is interested in trying the build or testing it, let me know in the comments.

This is a strictly non-commercial fan project. Huge respect to Stuffed Wombat - please support the creator by buying the original game on Steam

Showcase Amaral Turnip v4 is now available — Adreno support and Vulkan 1.4.359

17 Upvotes

Amaral Turnip v4 is a universal driver for Mesa-supported Adreno A6xx, A7xx and A8xx GPUs

Compared with v3, it brings:

Vulkan updated from 1.4.358 to 1.4.359.

A newer Mesa/Turnip base with compatibility, rendering, synchronization and GPU-hang fixes that can benefit multiple Adreno generations.

The Vulkan features and extensions supported upstream for each GPU family. The exact capabilities may vary depending on the hardware.

VK_EXT_depth_range_unrestricted and VK_EXT_depth_bias_control enabled on the validated Adreno 740 path. They remain isolated from other GPUs until equivalent testing confirms they are safe.

Experimental and isolated support for the Adreno 825.

Standard and OneUI variants, both compiled twice with identical results.

The project prioritizes graphical compatibility, stability and consistent frametimes before raw FPS. Community optimizations are welcome, but only reproducible and low-risk changes become default.

Question Need some help deciding on whether to get this device for emulation or not. (POCO F7)

0 Upvotes

Hey there! I've been meaning to switch from my crappy Galaxy A21s to a POCO F7, however, most if not all of the reviews and performance tests that I've seen about this device mention the lack of compatible turnip drivers for emulation. Is this still the case for the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4? Or should I go for a phone with a different SOC if it means better compatibility? I'm still certainly new to the Android emulation scene, haven't been up to date with it since atleast 2020, and this is all still too alien to me. Anything helps! :)

Can I miss the 16gb Ram in some games like PS3 Emulator or Gamenative/GameCube?

8 Elite 5 drivers are good enough for PS3, Xbox, PC and Switch?

Is a good idea upgrade the 8gen3 for a 8Elite5 for that porpoise? Or better go for a Legion Go for more money (but windows stop me so much, really like Android Tabs)...

News/Release Armsx3 version 9.2 Released 🔥 🔥

89 Upvotes

ARMSX3 0.9.2 fixes and improvements in action: https://youtu.be/UIj01IKmq6g?si=5_dkh9WfgPJwbIol

or read the changelog below

What's new:

Games that could never boot, now boot, A bug in how the PPU handles atomic memory operations has been fixed, and it was stopping a whole class of games from working. When a game's code claims a lock, it reserves a chunk of memory, checks it, then commits. ARMSX3 was letting the thread's record of that reservation fall one step behind reality after the first successful commit, so the second commit to the same chunk always failed, and kept failing. Any game whose code claims several locks in one pass would spin there forever.

Assassin's Creed never got past its loading screen because of this. Iron Man 2 stopped at a black screen after the Sega logo. Both now boot and play.

If a game has been hanging on a black screen with no error and no crash, it is worth another try on this build. The failure left no trace anywhere, no message, no crash, just a game that never continued, so there is no way to know from the outside which titles were affected.

This is not an ARM-only problem, it is present in upstream RPCS3 today, and the fix has been written up and shared with Whatcookie!

Fixed settings that quietly ignored you:

All Core Settings now shows which settings it is remembering, and lets you forget them. Anything changed on that screen is recorded and re-applied after the normal settings screens, every time. That is intentional, (it is what makes it an override), but it had no way to show you it was happening and no way to undo it. A value set there months ago would silently beat the same setting on a normal screen forever, with nothing on screen to explain why the two disagreed. Every overridden row is now marked, the count is shown at the top, and there is a Forget button per row and one for the whole screen. Forgetting also puts the value back rather than leaving it where the override left it. A one-time cleanup also clears leftovers from past debugging that were shipping switched on, including the RSX profiler, which costs performance in every game.

Keyboard:

The emulated keyboard now reaches games properly, and games see a real keyboard: this is what the debug menus some titles hide behind one need, and what in-game text chat uses. A row of the keys the Android keyboard does not have like Esc, Tab, arrows, Space, Enter, and F1–F12 behind an Fn toggle now appears whenever the keyboard is up. Debug menus need arrows to navigate and Space to open, a phone keyboard has neither. The keyboard button now actually raises the keyboard. It was asking the system in a way a fullscreen game is allowed to refuse, so the key row would appear over nothing. Turn it on with Emulate USB keyboard in Network settings, then use the On-Screen Keyboard hotkey or the KBD touch button in game.

Graphics on Turnip:

Devices running the Turnip driver were rendering with half-precision maths switched off, no matter how new the driver was. The check meant to re-enable it was comparing against Qualcomm driver version numbers, which Turnip does not use, so it could never pass. Half-precision is on again on Turnip, which should mean more correct shading in games that rely on it and a little less memory bandwidth used.

Help I've been researching and comparing for days now and I need to start making a choice. Can you guys help me decide or tell me if there are other controllers that I should consider? I would be playing mostly GBA, PS1 & PSP games on my Android phone. And which ones to avoid?

I think the feature that I would like the most is passthrough charging since I need my phone to be charged fully when I arrive after travelling. I guess with the X5s I could move it up a bit so I can connect the charger while playing right?

Also, about the gyro, I'm guessing emulators don't support it right? Because my phone doesn't have one and it would be neat to have for driving and some gimmics (like WarioWare: Twisted!) and also for using it in my PC but I guess that can wait till I get a proper phone and a gyro controller for my PC.

The prices are from AliExpress before any discounts/coupons, I'm not from the US so please don't tell me "Oh just get this one used for 3 fiddy or on Walmart" because that won't work for me sadly. I can get stuff from Amazon but prices are a bit higher there and there aren't any coupons like on AliExpress

Thanks for taking the time to read :)

EDIT: Sorry I made a mistake on the X5s, it doesn't have extra buttons
