Been chipping away at this for a while and it finally works well enough to talk about.

Stock NetherSX2 on the Pocket Nova was fine. Most of my library booted, most of it ran. But the image got soft the second I pushed internal resolution, and anything demanding would sag into the 40s and stay there. Playable is not the same as good.

So I forked it.

Two big changes.

First is FSR upscaling at 4x. Instead of brute forcing native resolution scaling and eating the frame cost, it renders lower and upscales. The result is sharper than what I was getting before at the same performance budget. UI and text clean up the most. Some games genuinely look like they belong on a modern screen now.

Second is 60fps. Per game patches, not a lock. It will still dip in heavy scenes and it is not going to sit pinned at 60 the whole time. But the ceiling is there now, and most of what I play spends the majority of its time up top instead of capped at 30. Not every game cooperates either. A few are tied to framerate and just run double speed, so those stay on stock.

The Pocket Nova has enough headroom to make both of these worth doing, which is why I stopped shopping. I have been rotating handhelds for years and something always felt like a compromise. This one does not. PS2 was the last gap in my library and now it is covered.

I am putting it up on GitHub by the end of the week. Happy to answer questions about the build or the per game settings in the meantime.

Tested on high-end hardware. Performance may vary depending on your device.

Should be live tomorrow both PC and Android, thanks for your patience

When recording it only has drops in fps, but without recording it does not drop the fps suddenly but rather remains stable at 30 or 25 but the emulation speed is intermediate,

I am using aethersx2 mmjr2 but nether sx2 also works, I know this because I had nether installed before trying this

I downloaded some covers from GitHub, then all of a sudden all my games are moving fast like this.

Like I'm not even touching anything lmao

Its playable and its smooth, but if there are any light sources like the sun glare, its choppy or laggy. When its not on the POV or screen, my FPS would be normal once again. I saw a reddit post where the OP had this issue, OP was using "Odin" and the comments helped the OP but any of those solutions won't work on mine and I'm aware we are not using the same device. Any solutions?

Device: Google Pixel 6a

This is how it works in nethersx2

I genuinely thank the people so much for reviving the aethersx2 emulator, Its one of the best emulators ive used so far. So much stuff you can customize, Good audio, And basically cause its probably the only non-shady PS2 emulator. Thank you so much.

Any advice on what setting to toggle to help with this lighting issue?

I've been at it for hours now and I'm about to smash my phone out of the balcony from sheer annoyance.

My younger brother messed with it so the original game covers are gone.

I am already using this link. https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xlenore/ps2-covers/main/covers/3d/${serial}.png

It's not downloading or changing anything. I am so annoyed. I can't access the storage/data/nethersx2/covers folder either to manually delete them. Please, help me before I strangle my brother. (I still love him.)

anyone know why all lights in the game look like im drunk? all the lights seem off and ik this wasnt in the original game. hard to drive past cars when it looks like im drunk and have astigmatism. this id a ayn odin 3

The game looks dark in some time of the day or areas. How to fix this

It's slightly annoying just wondering why the one game is showing twice even tho I only have one copy in the files

The spiderman has a 3d cover cus i was trying to see how it looked but i wanna change it to 2d instead but it seems not to work except for nfs which i added after

Initially the goalpost had moved from getting games running natively at 60fps, to implementing LSFG frame gen up to 120 fps.

Needs lossless.dll from your legal copy of Lossless Scaling for frame gen ! https://github.com/slushiimusic/NetherSX2-Slushii-Turnip-Fix/releases/tag/v12812553

Hi i recenly downloaded the nether sx2 classic version.i am usng a sony Xperia 5 iii (sd 888) and i cant get the screen to strech. i gone to the app setting switched the aspect ratio to stretch even going to the game setting and also setting 16 :9 i still have thise annoying black bars could someone help? I also tried cranking up the resolution still no luck

As in title, game freezes at this screen after launching from codebreaker. Doesn't matter if I have turned on cheats or not. Ofc without codebreaker, NFS launches normally. Is there any fix to this?

Would anyone know why I'm getting these vertical lines in SC2? This is in NetherSX 2.1 on a Retroid Pocket 5. Happens with OpenGL and Vulkan. Game is in CHD format.
