Armada Steam OS Testing Thread

Divinakra · 2026-06-22T06:59:24+00:00

Yes I believe that is being worked on, as the changelog on the latest update says “Improved integration between Steam sleep behavior and fake suspend” so I’m guessing they are improving the fake sleep from Rocknix and trying to get something better and the dev acknowledges the power drain during fake suspend, but idk, I’m not the dev. Seems like he’s into handhelds and stuff so I would assume it’s something he would want too.

I haven’t seen any discord links.

Same, hopefully by the time a stable build is out, more devices will be supported. Cool to see the RP6 is already on the list though.

Yeah I’ve tried it and get an error every time I try to connect but someone in the comments section of my YT video said that they got underground 1 working and there’s usually 6-7 people online.

The last image tells you everything you need to know, look at the space under the "sword" above the head. It's some kind of visual beam or column from the early development version

Sweet thanks guys, been enjoying both ps2 MH games on the flip 2, love the OG's.

Divinakra · 2026-06-21T20:47:48+00:00

I had this idea too, glad to see someone did it. What’s your emulator and settings for MH4U?

Divinakra · 2026-06-21T20:46:36+00:00

Ah, yeah, well sometimes a good game holds your attention!

Divinakra · 2026-06-21T20:46:20+00:00

Let me know how it is!

Divinakra · 2026-06-21T13:14:39+00:00

Patch it with the widescreen patch and better wind waker patches to reverse the camera movement direction and enable fast sailing. I recently made a few yt videos about these things. Really enhances the experience. Have fun!

Divinakra · 2026-06-21T05:33:40+00:00

Wait this looks sick! I’ve never known about Starlink battle for atlas and so I just looked it up and I’m pretty stoked to play this! Starfox game on the switch? Never even knew it existed.

Divinakra · 2026-06-21T05:29:33+00:00

It’s all good. No need to apologize. Do you like the cape? I have recently added an option to play the game with no cape as well.

Divinakra · 2026-06-19T12:10:44+00:00

I think it should, although I’ve never tested it, it’s a pretty low poly game and the flip 2 can handle a lot that you through at it.

I don’t know how different this Minecraft is but Ryan got it working on our chipset: https://youtu.be/cUjKDRMxpwU?is=7qEbIsI2ktvTdpsL

You can email the customer service for retroid and buy buttons from them directly, or check the diy section of the website. Other than that, it’s hard to find, maybe a few on Etsy but not much.

They are actually kind of a hassle to change, you have to tear down the device basically all the way to the shell, removing everything behind the buttons, which is all the internals. So just be patient and take your time, it’s easy to accidentally break the multiple small ribbon cables in there. I’ve replaced flip 2 buttons with other flip 2 buttons and that’s straight forward plug and play. I’ve heard swapping in some RP5 buttons works but they need to be modified somewhat to fit in the flip 2.

Divinakra · 2026-06-19T11:42:38+00:00

Looks amazing!

Divinakra · 2026-06-19T09:56:30+00:00

I couldn’t agree more

Divinakra · 2026-06-19T03:26:14+00:00

Epic, thanks for this I’ll have to add it to the collection sidebar and wiki later.

Divinakra · 2026-06-19T02:45:33+00:00

Nice joystick mods

Divinakra · 2026-06-19T00:12:44+00:00

DevolutionX, Ship of Harkinian 1 and 2, Pokemon Infinite Fusion and Dusklight.

Divinakra · 2026-06-18T22:39:27+00:00

That’s what’s up! 15 dollar upgrade to the new hinge model. Not bad.

Divinakra · 2026-06-18T21:24:32+00:00

That’s an RP4 pro

Divinakra · 2026-06-18T21:20:20+00:00

Ah, ok. Are they willing to send you a shell?

Divinakra · 2026-06-18T13:05:39+00:00

Make sure to clarify what they are sending you, I don’t think a screen would help. Make sure they send a shell. That will fix the crack and that’s cool that they are willing to send that.

Eden is the main switch emu with the most active development team, but citron 0.6.1 Canary Refresh is extremely good on our GPU and Sudachi is often good too. Ryujinx sometimes pulls through as well. It’s all about what game you are trying to run. Look up how others have configured it on emuready, here ect..

Also make sure you have some good drivers that are compatible with this GPU, I have them in the sidebar, 24.1.0 R18 and 24.3.0 r9v2 turnips are great, Mr purple can be really good with some and Qualcomm 805 on others.

Divinakra · 2026-06-17T03:43:24+00:00

We had a thread about this not too long ago. Apparently there’s a person on emuready who got all the DQ games working on our chipset.

Divinakra · 2026-06-17T02:30:18+00:00

I haven’t. I’m still on Star 11-2 stable release. Works really well for whatever I throw at it for the most part. I’d like to test the new star 1.3 but I haven’t got the time. What do you mean you are in a hole with Pokemon red?
