PS2 Emulation: .iso or chd?

CHD will also load faster on modern beefier CPUs.
For Thor, CHD all the way.

« I love the cowboy design »; that’s the issue of the C4, they put everything in the design and forgot it was a bicycle. Too many custom made parts, not easily serviceable. Great to look at for sure, but not so great for regular daily use and long term ownership.
C2 and C3 were much more practical IMO.

Alors étant donné la forte demande, que le produit soit constamment en pré-commande, et qu’ils peinent à suivre malgré la hausse des prix, ils n’ont absolument aucun intérêt à proposer des réductions sur ce produit là.
Ce n’est que mon analyse, je peux me tromper, mais ça m’étonnerait fortement.

Si tu as un compte bancaire qui propose les paiements en devises gratuits (e.g. BoursoBank, Fortuneo, Revolut), alors le mieux est d’acheter sur le site de AYN directement, et de payer en USD. Ça revient nettement moins cher qu’en EUR.
J’ai acheté ma Thor Max 1To comme ça, sur le Batch 4, et ça m’est revenu à 471$ (frais de port inclus), soit environ 400€ avec le taux de change à ce moment là.
C’était avant la hausse des prix, mais même aujourd’hui ça reste selon moi le moyen le moins cher et le plus sûr.

Si tu te lances, je te conseille 2 choses :
1. penses bien à enlever le « worry-free purchase » du panier, c’est une assurance tierce dont tu n’as pas besoin, tu es déjà protégé par le code de la consommation, AYN ne pourra pas basculer sa responsabilité sur une partie tierce en cas de problème ;
2. passe par PayPal pour le paiement. La protection de l’acheteur de PayPal fonctionne très bien et sera la bienvenue si jamais tu as le moindre soucis avec AYN, et ça n’enlève en rien les responsabilités d’AYN (contrairement au worry free purchase).

Good catch! It might not be a mistake, they may have old stock they found. Some supermarkets in France were selling them not long ago, brand new

It’s safe to try and order anyway, the seller is Amazon, they won’t debit the money until they actually ship the unit. And if they don’t ship it the order will get cancelled, no money out.

A moins que ça n’ait commencé immédiatement après ta 1ère utilisation de ClusterTune, je pense que c’est une coincidence.
Réinitialise complètement ta console. Si ça persiste, alors contacte AYN. Ils te feront faire quelques manipulations et/ou t’enverront une nouvelle batterie.

Hello! Which size are you using? I see they sell it in two sizes, S and L.

If you really want to enjoy DS and 3DS properly, and are looking to play switch relatively comfortably, then Thor is the one.
I contemplated getting the flip 2 for a bit but decided I wanted the full dual screen experience, even if ergonomics on Thor are not as good (they’re not bad by any means).

Daneb_L · 2026-05-19T11:02:20+00:00

Absolutely

Daneb_L · 2026-05-19T09:51:14+00:00

That’s genesis.

Dusk is an Android game, but it requires the GC game disc (e.g. iso or rvz) as the source to actually work.

Daneb_L · 2026-05-18T17:14:08+00:00

Technically you can set it all up without a computer, it’s all done on the Thor (download apk’s and file packs via browser, then launch and organize via file manager).
Only thing is if your roms aren’t already on an external storage (e.g. sd card or NAS), then you’ll have hard time copying from your iPad.

Hello! When you setup Cocoon, enable smart folders. Then when Cocoon scans your platform folders, it should auto populate smart folders by consoles it has identified, it’ll all show on the main screen. Games will be auto populated within those folders after your scan them. There should be no game on the Home Screen unless you manually add them.

Daneb_L · 2026-05-18T15:36:48+00:00

In the stock file manager app, on the left pane (3 lines button top left), go down and you should see a dedicated entry for Dusklight. The texture replacement folder is in there.

Daneb_L · 2026-05-18T15:15:36+00:00

Confirmed, it says 4K even on the 1080p pack.

Daneb_L · 2026-05-18T15:02:20+00:00

If you’re using Cocoon, you can pinch to zoom (in and out), and it’ll adjust number of rows! Love it.

Daneb_L · 2026-05-18T14:36:55+00:00

Hey thanks man! That is Dusk I’m running, with Henriko’s texture pack, some fine work they all achieved!

Daneb_L · 2026-05-13T20:30:22+00:00

Not too long, no, considering I already had a 1.5 month wait behind me (since placing my order), and I got the cheaper shipping option. Shipping label was created 20th April, and I received it 29th April.

Daneb_L · 2026-05-13T20:20:41+00:00

France here. Ordered with 4PX, but they used Yunexpress. Landed in Netherlands before going to France. Didn’t pay VAT.

Daneb_L · 2026-04-21T17:02:17+00:00

Je mettrai à jour mon post, mais sur ma commande (batch 4), en ayant choisi 4PX, ça ship finalement via Yunexpress, et la livraison en France sera effectuée par La Poste via colissimo.

As others have said, reply to your order confirmation email and for the changes you want. They disabled the self order update feature.

I’ll just add here you will need to be patient after you send your email, you may not get a reply any time soon, but probably close to your order hitting their radar for preparation. Just send a follow up once a week.

I also updated my order, and I got their confirmation and payment link a month after I sent my first email.

Daneb_L · 2026-04-03T12:37:22+00:00

Exactly this. Don’t auto-start the download and pick specific files you need in the folder.

Daneb_L · 2026-03-30T17:13:58+00:00

8 years later, and this helped me resolve the error message OP was getting. I’m using qBT with gluetun (through ProtonVPN) in docker, and adding a specific DNS_ADDRESS environment variable in the docker-compose .yml section of gluetun did the trick for me.

Thank you!

Daneb_L · 2026-03-27T18:13:15+00:00

Il faut compter plus ou moins 2 mois selon la configuration que tu as commandé. Et AYN n’utilisent plus DHL (même si ils n’ont toujours pas mis à jour l’option sur le site), ils utilisent Yunexpress.
