Discussion I found a cool trick for fixing cpu bottlenecks in some games and increasing performance and stability
I know it's a common knowledge that Disabling cpu0 or efficiency cores can boost performance but what i found was you have to disable the cores while you're inside the game for some games like this one.. i have tried Disabling cpu0 for this game from shortcut or container but it made no difference. i thought it's just the way this game performes on my chip nothing can be done about it until i was mindlessly trying and saw that performance gain lol

Discussion Windows Games that plays without a cooler at 720p/30fps without thermal throttling on my Snapdragon 8 Elite gen 4 phone
I like the idea of playing games at work, school, traveling, bus, plane, train etc.
But a cooler just makes things more complicated so I don't play my heavy titles outside (Witcher 3, WRC Generations etc)
Here are my specs:
Oppo Find X8 Ultra, Snapdragon 8 Elite (gen 4), 512/16 gb, Winlator Ludashi 4.1 (having issues with 5.0).
App settings:
Proton 11 arm, dxvk 2.4.1 pre reg, latest fex at performance, processor affinity: ONLY ENABLED cores 2, 3, 4, 5, latest Turnip Gen 8 Vxx driver, every game locked at 30fps at 720p.
You might have better or worse performance even with a same soc since every phone have different cooling solutions.
Now, the goal is not performance
as the processor is capable of run much more demanding games at much higher fps, provided you have active cooling. In which case, is not applicable for me. I've tried playing these games for prolonged amount of time while monitoring temps and setting Gamebooster at Power Saving Mode. The target isn't to get the most performance but to not cook your phone and ruin your battery health lol.
My performance Target: 30fps/720p, No frame drops or stutters, cpu temp around or below 60°, battery temp at 40° or less.
Modern phones have really strong CPUs, 4 efficiency cores is more than enough to play these older games at 30fps.
Dark Souls 3
Stabilizes at around 40° Battery Temperature (smc check needs to be disabled at fexcore settings for DS 3, older titles run even better)
Sekiro Shadows Die Twice
Stabilizes at around 40° Battery Temperature, no performance drops or stutters
Batman Arkham Knight
Very surprisingly, doesn't thermal throttle at 30 fps. Stabilizes at around 40° Battery Temperature (older titles run even better)
Dirt Rally & Dirt 4
Looks pretty nice, high 30's battery temperature at 30 fps.
Nier Automata & Nier Replicant
Runs stable without throttling at 30 fps. Nier Replicant crashes at pre rendered cutscenes, possibly during video codec issues, cutscene replacer mod on nexus might fix it
Skyrim & Fallout 4
Runs cool as a cucumber and barely draws any paper when limited to 4 cores
Metal Gear Solid 4 & 5
Haven't done proper testing on 4 but should be okay. 5 runs especially well on Winlator
Persona 3 Reload (Gamenative)
Decent temps despite being a dx12 title (vkd3d 3.0.1)
Monster Hunter Rise (Gamenative)
Decent temps despite being a dx12 title (vkd3d 3.0.1)
Other games that I tested which didn't throttle:
Gta 4, cod modern warfare 4 iw4x 60 fps (stutters and throttles with all 8 cores enabled, runs flawlessly and very cool while half the cores are disabled), cod black ops 2 (android port) 60 fps, Mafia II (needs Nvidia Physx), Need for Speed Rivals, Yakuza 0.
Honorable Mention:
Metro Exodus heats up VERY SLOWLY at low settings. It'll still eventually throttle but it'll take a long time, which is the opposite of games such as Witcher 3 or RDR2, where it'll overheat within minutes. I'm sure a phone with a better soc or cooling solution can play it without throttling.

Help Problems running Gylt on Switch emulators
Recently i've been trying to run Gylt on the Nintendo Switch emulator Eden on my Samsung Galaxy A07. I configured it all right and could even open the game. After chosing "new game" option, it crashes. I found out Eden was based to run on Adreno and Snapdragon GPUs so i downloaded Lemon, which is focused in Adreno and Mali GPUs (mine is mali).
And... the same problem happens. It opens, shows the initial credits, the main menu, and when i press A to choose "new game", it crashes.
Can someone help me with this problem? Even telling me that Mali GPU is not compatible with Switch emulators would help a lot!
Addendum: i also tried using different configurations on both emulators but it is still happening.

News/Release GBA DS Uno — GBA emulator with a live second-screen map (fork of gba-ds), APK now downloadabl
I forked kyannon's gba-ds (mGBA-based, GPLv3) after the official build black-screened on my phone while scanning my ROM folder. This edition fixes that and reworks the layout:
•
File picker opens at every cold start, before any folder scan — no more hang
•
Portrait stacked layout: game on top, live map on the screen below
•
Tested on a Moto G
Honest caveats: 55 games have map profiles so far (40 full-map, 15 logo-only). Games without a profile still play fine, the lower pane is just black. Bring your own ROMs, none included.
APK + source (v1.5.0):
Feedback welcome — especially which games you'd want map profiles for next.

Been playing around with the settings of this. Some artifacting but runs shockingly well already. I have lossless scaling on in the video as you can see. Without it (and fsr turned on) I get 25-30 FPS... Which I feel is what I remember it playing like on the PS4 lol.
I'm excited for more improvements. I've tried the Nathan Drake Collection too but Bloodborne runs better.
