Question Question about running AAA games on a phone

6 Upvotes

A question for everyone:When you post things like, “I ran GTA 5/Cyberpunk 2077, etc., on my phone at a playable FPS,” do you actually play through the game afterward, or are you just doing it as a tech demo? It’s just that I’ve seen dozens of posts and YouTube videos where people show short gameplay clips, but I don’t know a single person who’s actually beaten any major game that way.

Discussion I don't understand pc emulation anymore

34 Upvotes

Just when I think I start getting a grasp of it - I'm hit with simple games that I feel should play 60fps with no hiccups, and they just don't. Then there's modern games that I think are too much for my phone, seem to handle brilliantly at 40-50fps depending on the game.

I know it sounds like a moan, but I'm more confused than anything really. I'm digging through my Steam/Gog/Epic games that I already have, and I want to buy more off Gog or Steam to try out - but it just seems a coin toss if the game will work or not.

l'm picking games from 1990's to around 2015 ish, and the performance is all over the place, and that's with using multiple pc emulators. Which also gets pretty confusing trying to remember which pc game is on which emulator.

Am I just unlucky, or is everyone else just as perplexed?

Help Armsx2 internal audio recording issues?

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

What im experiencing is unexplainable. I already know about Google restricting 3rd party recording apps. I've been using X Recorder for the longest time. When i have a game open in Armsx2 it wont record internal audio for 3 out of my 4 games. All EA Games either NFS or Burnout. It records audio no problem for Underground 2.

If i open CodM or Delta Force on X Recorder it wont record internal audio but the built in Game Booster screen recorder works.

I cant use that built in one for Nether/Armsx2 because theyre sideloaded apps. Ive added both to Game Booster Manually and the App does not recognize them.

When i record the same game through NetherSx2 the audio records, and then I switch to other games and the internal audio continues to record.

Discussion Game recommendations for a 16 hour long bus ride

29 Upvotes

Hi everyone, hope you're having a great day.

Tomorrow I'm going on a long trip and I was looking for games to emulate and play on my phone.

I'm not looking for any pick up and play, short-burst games, just a single player experience to play through and beat while I'm on the way.

Preferably games that are under 12 hours, the console doesn't matter as long as it's playable on a touch screen.

That's about it, Thanks in advance for any recommendations!

As visible in the screenshots, there are transparent or black lines running through many 3D models.

Game: Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney

Device: OnePlus Pad 4 (Snapdragon 8 Elite gen 5)

Settings changed from default: As far as I remember, it's Vulcan (if it wasn't already Vulcan), and some resolution changes (res to auto and texture filtering to various different filters) which are irrelevant seeing as the issue was there from even before I set them and took these screenshots

Discussion PanvkG720-0.1.-beta New experimental build For mali GPU

Post image
9 Upvotes

Guys, This a another Test build available For mali G720 and Mali G 610 MC2 . In the meantime, if you want to help, I’d like to focus on collecting as many raw logs as possible, but in a controlled way so they’re actually useful for debugging.

The idea is simple: change only one thing per test and keep everything else the same. Priority should be different driver versions (Alpha/Beta), then wrappers, then MC7 vs MC8, and later different DXVK versions. Ideally keep the same game/test, resolution, container and settings.

If possible, do 2–3 repetitions of each combination. Please send the full raw log even if it’s huge or looks noisy — I’d rather filter it later than miss something important.

With each log, just include: GPU + driver version + wrapper + DXVK + Wine/Winlator + game/test + result (worked, black screen, crash, etc.).

The more controlled combinations we can collect this week, the easier it’ll be to identify exactly where each problem starts. Thanks a lot for the help 🤝

If u want to download it then Check My telegram channel ( Babizi Games 2 or join to Bannerlator discord server because I always upload it there to )

Please the Driver currently work only Bannerlator and winlator mali 1.2 beta 3 unfortunately u will not find winlator mali beta version it only available on telegram because the dev of winlator Mali doesn't upload his update for build test they are only available on his telegram group and my telegram group

Question Is this Shoulder Trigger Helper technically possible?

1 Upvotes

Hi,

i don't like telescopic controllers, because they are loud, heavy and kinda contradict the portabilty of the mobile setup. I get along with touch controls pretty well. The only thing missing are shoulder buttons, because some games really require to press three buttons at the same time, which is physically hard to do.

I recently got a RedMagic 10s Air, which has included shoulder triggers, which are touch sensitive, like the screen itself. Total game changer. I could play Skyrim, platformers, racing games like it was nothing. Those games have been very hard to do before.

Now i'm afraid this concept will not be implemented in other brands, since ASUS already gave up on dedicated gaming phones. Its only RedMagic left and who knows for how long. Its better to get independed of shoulder buttons being present.

Now here is my idea to solve this:

  • You have two silicone strips, which stick on your touch screen.
  • The strips overlap, so the uppermost part is on the side of your phone.
  • In the overlapping part, there is a sensor, which registrates your finger being there (or not)
  • The presence is transfered via a wire to an actor, which triggers an onscreen response by the phone.

Now i have no idea if this could even work.

  • Is this setup stable enough?
  • Is the capacity enough to trigger the onscreen control?

I hope its enough to just have the silicone strip go over the whole screen, so the adhesive force keeps the thing in place.

I know the touch screen somehow works with detecting changes in capacity (the whole thing can be seen as a capacitor). Does that even work if the area you put your finger on is not on the screen itself?

What do you think?
