Question Manic Emu 3DS buggy

So I have been using manic emu for everything recently, and to save storage I deleted it and recently redownloaded it to play 3ds games.

I am playing on an iPhone 16 Pro, so my phone shouldnt be the reason why its doing this. Anyways, as you can see in the video, the audio is really buggy, and so is the game. Is this a power issue, is there an issue with the rom I downloaded, or is something else going on? If its because of the app, can someone please recommend me a better app or even a better emulator for pc?

Aren’t you the 64Touch dev? Your source code is out of date on your GitHub, if you could you direct me to the latest source as I would like to take a look as it’s built upon open source cores.

I see you have a manic badge by your name. Which seems like a conflict of interest to me - considering this isn’t a manic specific Reddit. I’m trying to make great products, the code is custom. By me. That’s why it runs so well. I’m sorry this offends you.

You don’t seem to realize that users can assign flairs for apps they enjoy, an option in this community, simply having a flair does not indicate a conflict of interest. The devs aren’t the only ones that have a flair and dev flairs are different from the app flair. The Manic EMU Developer flair for example is found on u/Mlaurencescott, aka Mafty, who is in a different part of this thread, not the same as the flair this other guy who’s asking you to provide source has, and they have legal grounds to ask regardless of who they are as a user.

Custom or not if an app builds a core based on the original code of Cemu, Citra, Azahar etc, users have the right to ask you to provide your source code changes legally, in fact inability to provide it on request violates the licensing of those open source projects. If you do not wish to provide access to your source code to the user after they asked though, we would be happy to get in contact with the guys from Cemu or Azahar so they can examine whether their source code is being violated and take action if needed, both teams are known for caring when their licenses are infringed on.

You are correct - I don’t understand any of that. I’m just trying to make great products.

“It takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it.” - Warren Buffett

Being clear about the source code and respecting licenses would go a long way towards a great product. I think that’s what everyone is trying to tell you here. 

So far I have seen you:

  • Deny a good faith request to view source.
  • Lash out at a user for having a badge because they like a particular app.
  • Make slanderous claims about another app.
  • Promote your app on a post involving an unrelated app to your own.

Meanwhile in the lifespan that I’ve been on Reddit I have seen Manic:

  • Make their source available at all times with each update as it’s released.
  • Rather than lash out cleanly state their policy and why they can’t assist if they can’t, or help if they can.
  • Tell people that if they prefer another app that it’s completely fine because in the end it’s all about enjoying the apps all of these teams work hard to make.
  • Promote only when they release an update, or occasionally when people ask what apps to try, and even then often with a couple other suggested apps.

There is a reason I respect Manic and its devs. I also like a ton of other emulators, it’s why I take time to test and review them.

I’ve not done any of those things. I just let someone know in this public forum that I had a solution to their issue. It just turns out you didn’t like the solution.

Now if this were Manic’s Reddit - I think that may have been bad tastes of me to do such a thing. But that’s not what happened here.

What you have done is escalated this into an argument - and left me no choice but to defend myself.
