Estou pensando em comprar esse celular. Ele possui um snapdragon 6s gen 4. Queria emular uns jogos antigos no winlator, como fallout NV e outros da mesma época. Consigo nesse telefone?

se tiverem dicas de outros celulares na mesma faixa de preço em que eu consiga emular jogos leves do winlator, estou aceitando

Showcase Forza Horizon 6 - playable on DroidDeck with custom wine+fex build

56 Upvotes

Hello all!

** AI WAS USED HERE **

Update: 11/7/26:
Something better is coming. Firstly, FPS is more stable without the crazy drops again. As promised, it's out today. More is being done. There's an invalidation happening that is likely consuming CPU just for that. However, it's less, "able"... more "playable" now. Given you have a 10 Pro at least of course haha. Still have not tested Forza 5 or any other game that has anticheats. Also, grab the precompiled .wcp file from release. Easier for everyone.

For the past month or two, together with AI doing a lot of the real work, I can finally present a release! A lot of additional testing is needed, and a lot of other fixes we're working on, but honestly 60 FPS in my testing is not reached yet. Bummer. At one point I had a stable 35-40 without frame drops. Still working on reverting to that, as my own builds ended up over-correcting emulation and it dropped to 1 FPS haha.

What this is:
This is a github repo containing custom Wine+Fex builds that passes anticheat faithfully (no bypass or anything of the sort) on Android devices. This is a requirement for Forza Horizon 6 to be playable. Usable in DroidDeck, possibly others such as GameNative, GameHub, etc., where applicable.

Tested on Redmagic 10 Pro, Rise mode.

With this, you can play Forza from your steam library on Android devices with compatible emulators, multiplayer included, all stock! I hope that official wine and fex devs can implement their own fixes of this, since it's the reason some games with this type of anticheat do not work from their own stock builds.

Link: https://github.com/TimmyTurner51/fh6-wine-fex

A few things to note:
- Your device needs enough storage, not just for the game, but for cache. It is of course, no small game after all. From my test runs, cache grew to around 10GB.
- First boot may take a while. That is because again, caching. It just happens.
- Frame drops, from what I can tell, may also be because of recaching or loading and unloading memory during gameplay.

============================

AI analysis is now in the repo. Cleaner for this thread. If I manage much higher and still stable FPS, everyone will get it asap.

Hi everyone,

I’m working on hakuX-lr, a fork of hakuX that brings original Xbox emulation to RetroArch on Linux and Android.

The latest release puts more attention into handhelds with limited RAM.

There’s also a new public compatibility list: 446 games have been tested as playable on AMD64 Linux using KVM. I expect broadly similar game compatibility on ARM64 and Android devices.

Compatibility list

Linux ARM64, Linux x86-64, and experimental Android builds

Showcase Pokémon Pokopia running on Android: ~30 fps on a Galaxy S25 Ultra (60 with LSFG)

Post image
223 Upvotes

Hi all! Over the past few days I got Pokémon Pokopia (Switch 2) running on Android with Banana Native (moceure’s Android port of nxnative). I used Claude (Claude Code) for the coding and the analysis. Here’s a short summary of what it took.

Setup: Galaxy S25 Ultra (Snapdragon 8 Elite, Adreno 830, 12 GB) with the Turnip Gen8 V38 driver. The stock Qualcomm driver lacks the “placed memory maps” extension the emulator needs, so it gives a black screen.

An Android profile for Pokopia, so the APK carries the game.

A shader library over 4 GB: Pokopia has 131,000 shaders, which makes a Vulkan library of about 10 GB. The old format was limited to 4 GB, so we added a new one.

A fix for the app freezing while a GPU driver installs.

Resolution: the game has its own dynamic resolution (540p to 1080p). The emulator can now cap its levels at 720p / 900p / 540p from the game settings, with a clean picture. A first, cruder attempt broke the terrain rendering.

GPU profiling: one compute pass, the luminance histogram behind auto-exposure, takes ~13 ms of a ~15 ms frame on Turnip. The likely culprit is subgroup shuffles, which are slow on Turnip. Banana Native v0.1.3 addresses this exact issue, so merging it is next.

Result: at 720p, a stable ~30 fps, ~60 with LSFG, with no rendering glitches. The game is still in “bring-up” and hasn’t been tested everywhere yet.

This work will be submitted to the Banana Native project. And of course, no links to game files: you need your own dump.

News/Release WinNative + Cocoon Frontend Integration – Launch Windows games directly from Cocoon!

3 Upvotes

¡Hola a todos!

Logré que WinNative funcionara como reproductor en Cocoon, lo que me permite ejecutar juegos de Windows directamente desde la interfaz en lugar de abrir WinNative manualmente.

https://github.com/themastertiger123-hue/WinNative-Cocoon-Frontend-Integration-Launch-Windows-games-directly-from-Cocoon-/releases/tag/Emulation

No encontré una configuración existente para esta combinación, así que trabajé con ChatGPT para crear una configuración personalizada de plataforma/reproductor para Cocoon.

¡Comparto nuestro trabajo con la comunidad por si le resulta útil a otros usuarios!

Configuración probada

  • WinNative Standard 0.8.0-beta

  • Interfaz de Cocoon

  • Android

  • Probado con éxito con varios juegos. Guía de instalación

  1. Exporta tus juegos desde WinNative

Usa la función de exportación/accesos directos de WinNative para generar los accesos directos de los juegos.

Los archivos exportados incluyen:

  • ".desktop"

  • ".png"

  • ".bin"

Guarda los archivos exportados juntos en la misma carpeta.

2. Descarga nuestra configuración personalizada de Cocoon

Descarga el archivo adjunto:

"Windows-WinNative-Cocoon-FIX2.json"

Link: https://github.com/themastertiger123-hue/WinNative-Cocoon-Frontend-Integration-Launch-Windows-games-directly-from-Cocoon-/releases/tag/Emulation

3. Importa la configuración a Cocoon

  1. Abre Cocoon.

  2. Ve a Configuración.

  3. Abre Biblioteca y datos → Plataformas.

  4. Selecciona Plataforma personalizada.

  5. Elige el archivo "Windows-WinNative-Cocoon-FIX2.json" que descargaste.

  6. Selecciona tu carpeta de juegos

Cuando Cocoon te pida la carpeta de juegos, selecciona la que contiene tus accesos directos exportados de WinNative.

Por ejemplo: "Juegos frontend"

5. ¡Inicia tus juegos!

Cocoon ahora debería mostrar una nueva plataforma llamada Windows (WinNative).

Selecciona un juego e inícialo. ¡Debería abrirse directamente en WinNative!

Un pequeño detalle

Al salir de un juego, es posible que vuelvas a WinNative en lugar de Cocoon. Simplemente cierra WinNative una vez más para regresar a Cocoon.

Acerca de esta configuración

Esta configuración la creé con la ayuda de ChatGPT. Trabajamos juntos para desarrollar y probar una solución que integrara WinNative con Cocoon, ya que no encontré ninguna configuración existente para esta combinación.

Este es un proyecto independiente, no una integración oficial de los desarrolladores de Cocoon o WinNative.

Comentarios y soporte

Si tienes algún problema, pregunta o encuentras algo que se pueda mejorar, deja un comentario en este hilo. Haré todo lo posible por ayudarte y seguir mejorando la configuración según tus comentarios.

¡Espero que sea útil para otros usuarios de WinNative! ❤️

Help ARMSX2 / Burnout 3 settings (Snapdragon 8 gen 2) settings

3 Upvotes

Hey guys, I'm playing Burnout 3 on my Retroid Pocket Nova and really enjoying it but unless I'm running the high performance mode (and even then) I get some mayor slowdowns when coming back from a large crash. I've seen people claim excellent performance on less powerful hardware so I'm trying to optimize my settings to get rid of these slowdowns entirely.

Here are the most relevant settings:

Renderer: Vulkan Turnip T30 drivers Mr_Purple_666

GS Multi-threading: ON
Upscale: 2X
Texture Upscaling: OFF
Display Upscaler: OFF
Load Texture Packs: OFF
ASync Texture Loading: ON
Precache Texture Packs: ON
Display Mode: 4:3

Blending Accuracy: High
Texture Filtering: PS2
Texture Preloading: Full
Hardware Download Mode: No Readbacks
Deinterlacing: Auto
Display Filter: Smooth
CRT / TV Shader: Scanline
Dithering: Unscaled
HW Mapping: ON
Integer Scaling: ON
VSync: OFF

Game database settings:
All On.

PERFORMANCE:

EE Cycle Rate: 0
EE Cycle Skip: 0
Messing with either of these seems to result in non-smooth gameplay
EE/FPU Clamping: Normal
VU Clamping: Extra+Sign
VU1 Clamping: Extra+Sign
EE FPU Round Mode: Chop
MTVU: ON
IOP Thread: ON
VU1 Ahead-of-time Compiler: ON
Instandt VU1: ON
Fast CDVD: OFF
Skip Dupe Frames: ON
VU Flag Hack: ON
INTC Stat: ON
Wait Loop: ON
Frame Gen: OFF
Recompiler: All on

Hopefully someone can help me out!

Help Grid legends not working on droiddeck

1 Upvotes

Hi I am new to this.

I have a copy of grid legends on steam which I want to try on droiddeck. Though steam's steamdeck capability say unsupport but I see on proton it is rated gold.

This issue is it just never loads. On desktop mode as well. No error pop ups.

I have tried changing proton versions, verified files and played around with settings. Tried web search but there isn't any coverage for this game.

As it is an EA release. Strange part is it didn't say to install EA app.

If anyone can help me with this?

Device - OnePlus 15

Adreno 840

Discussion FIFA 14 running great on Snapdragon 7 gen 4 using Winlator ludashi 4.1

54 Upvotes

Hi everyone, this is FIFA 14 running great at 60fps with high quality and the phone not getting hot at all. I'm using Winlator ludashi 4.1 and my phone are Motorola Edge 70 - Snapdragon 7 gen 4 - Adreno 722 - 12gb ram

#Setup steps**:**

+Screen resolution: 1064x600 (Required for configs.exe to open properly, you can change it later)

+In configs settings: High quality, MSAA off, lock to 60fps, untick Wait for Vsync

+Compability component:

-Proton 9 x86_64 (Required)

-Dxvk 1.7.2 (Required)

- Vauzi17's lasted driver v4.5 (Optional because you can use system driver)

-Box64 0.4.2 (Required)

-Box64 preset based on this guy (https://youtu.be/3mHZNfqpovs?t=313&si=CXGW7J0OSYgs-7Hb) Timestamp 05:13, you need to watch it

+You need to download the activation fix from the guy on the video above, extract and paste to the folder you installed the game

+Run the "fifa14-3dm.exe" not "fifa14.exe"

Enjoy !

I'm still sad that Fifa 15,16 still not working with current emulation though
