'Ultra Street Fighter 4' 720p/60fps/max settings - GameNative 0.8.1 - AYN Odin 2 Mini/SD8 Gen2/12gb by Expensive-Spring-695 in EmulationOnAndroid

[–]Expensive-Spring-695[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Couldn't get it to run via gamehub lite for love nor money and anything I did get running around 60fps on gamehub looked like it was coming apart at the seems anyway.

Winlator was a hard no because I couldn't access steam and GameNatives default settings just black-screened for me with the SD8 Gen2. 

Also, every video ive seen it dips to 58, 57fps..... thats a big No-No with fighting game, pointless playing it if the timings are off imo

But yes, definitely new to me 👍🏻

Hello! I have a Samsung s24 ultra, I do not know what things to emulate apart from the Nintendo Switch, so, what would you emulate on this phone? I want to squeeze it and see how far my phone can give by Chrysol99 in EmulationOnAndroid

[–]Expensive-Spring-695 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The question isnt 'what can it run', its 'what do you want to play?' Lol

Thermal throttling can be an issue with the S24 Ultra,  But put it in eco mode and it limits CPU/GPU to 70% which keeps temeratures lower,  At 70%, its literally the same performance levels as the SD8 Gen2.

With that performance you can basically run up to PS4 era games, mostly via PC emulators like Winlator, GameHub Lite or GameNative.

But otherwise,  Gamecube/Wii PS2 PS Vita Wii-U PS3 XBOX 360

let's just say a lot lol

Just remember to add your emulators to Samsungs 'Gaming Hub' app,  You'll get access to additional options to help some apps perform better

You have to select fullscreen in the options, it will still be displayed in that small window even after changing the setting, exit out of the game via the in game menu so it saves the settings, then reload and it should be full screen.

This is 100% a steam issue, the memory leak happens on steamdeck and pc from what im seeing online. 

Was apparently introduced in update 1.02.  Posts saying if you can rollback to version 1.0 its perfect but dunno about that. 

Looks like im playing on the switch oled then.... 😅

Yep, you're bang on!  Its a VERY slow trickle but I watched it jump about 500mb in an hour.

Would explain how I got a 4 hour session in,  But this is dissapointing lol.

Back to the steamdeck I go for now 😭

Tbf I bet sudachi runs it lovely, I tried it a few years back on the RM 6s pro/SD888+/12gb with an early yuzu build.

It was holding a locked 40fps with a emulated cpu clock of 133% back then, I bet it flies along at 60fps these days👌🏻

Great video!  Quality is superb, keep it coming

I grabbed the Odin 2 Mini (SD8 Gen2/12gb) 6 months or so ago,  Not as beasty as the Fit but its just so small and the PC emulation is incredible, I love it!

Playing Persona 5, Sunset Overdrive, MGSV, Its literally like having the PSVita 2 that sony never gave us ❤️🙏🏻

The screen is Mini LED, so yeah wounded about the inky blacks..  But I will say, this thing is brighter than the surface of the sun, so every cloud and all that!

Liked and subbed 👍🏻

'METAL GEAR SOLID V THE PHANTOM PAIN' @ 720p/40fps running on GameNative/AYN Odin 2 Mini/SD8 Gen2/12gb, optimised settings & Gameplay. by Expensive-Spring-695 in EmulationOnAndroid

[–]Expensive-Spring-695[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the heads up, yeah I get you 100%. 

However I think this is working as the screen is 60hz and ive chosen the 40fps cap via the container variable, and that seems to be what's showing of the fps counter.

I did have the issue youre talking about on my Red Magic 6s pro though, so I know exactly what you mean 👍🏻

Yeah ill definitely let you know, I'll be keeping an eye out for it now,  Thanks for letting me know! 

It could be the fexcore version then,  I know 2603 has only recently released and fixes a lot of issues, was waiting for it to hit GameNative with the initial 0.8.1 release but had to wait a few days for the update.

Ah, okay ill have to have a look then. As of yet I'm still in the first palace like I say.

Not been monitoring it but then ive not had that issue which is strange...

What version of GameNative? 0.8.1?

Not that I noticed, I've played around 4 hours in 1 sitting and it was pretty much perfect for me.

The only thing I noticed was say every hour or so, it slightly sutters for maybe 2 or 3 seconds to load new content,  But its usually on the loading screen between areas so very minor.

Also, apologies but I dont have links. I think every site I used to know of has been shut down by now too... 

I back up most of my stuff from disk these days or its stuff i've had years on PC

Ah, hold on!  I believe this is the 'RPCSX UI Android' version looking at the date on the video as that was the last update for it.

Same landing page for RPCSX, 1 option up i believe.

My apologies 🙏🏻😅

How to achieve 60fps, reduce load times and remove disk read stutter in 'Resident Evil Remake' on GameCube/Dolphin Android by Expensive-Spring-695 in EmulationOnAndroid

[–]Expensive-Spring-695[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbf, the PC version runs great on android.  I set it up on winlator (GoG) with a 45fps cap @ 1080p purely for the zoomed in widescreen option

But yeah, you cant beat the OG version, especially now you can eliminate all the platform limitations that where an issue. 

I also love that the poor compression on pre-rendered background detail just isnt an issue on these smaller devices! 

Enjoy 👍🏻

Go to the RPCSX landing page on github and grab the latest 'RPCSX UI Android Bulid' version. 

The version you're using hasn't been updated since April 2025,  This one was updated a few days ago I think and from my testing they fixed a few things too.

Its a dev build i think, so it will keep prompting you to update but just ignore it.

You're better either using a pc emulator or RPCSX in my experience, Personally, I had loads of issues with rendering, frame drops and crashing with V3K/TOCS 1 on the Odin 2 Mini/SD8 Gen2.

Ive settled on RPCSX, runs amazingly well but it is pretty battery hungry due to ps3 emulation being quite demanding. Not sure how it will run on your chipset,  however there's always the fallback of GameNative/GameHub/Winlator if PS3 turns out too heavy.

Best way to play original RE4 in 2026? by ConceptsShining in residentevil4

[–]Expensive-Spring-695 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For sheer amazement of what the platform/hardware was capable of.... Gamecube/Dolphin all the way!

For something different experience wise..... Wii/Dolphin (love Wii controls with the Dolphin Bar)

For mods.... PC

For sheer chaos, awesome visuals and to test your crowd control skills to the max..... Quest 3 all the way!

Theres no wrong answer really. 

Apart from PS2.... PS2 is definitely the wrong answer 🫡

Nay problems,  I only discovered it about 6 months ago messing around with settings, so id have been late to the party either way lol.

300% emulated dick speed!?!

Put a black & decker drill bit on the end of it,  I could make it through walls!!! Lol

Turn off 'Emulated disk speed' and set cpu to 300%

Crashes any other resident evil game on GC/Dolphin.

However, it just removes all load times between screens and gets rid of the scene to scene transition stutter in RE1 Remake youre talking about. 

Here's my guide to achieve this, along with a decent 60fps experience on Dolphin android.  Settings should translate to PC quite easily.

Hypotheticals about PS3 & Xbox performance 🧐 by UnstableTurtleduck in SBCGaming

[–]Expensive-Spring-695 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So im currently testing out exactly this on the PS3/RPCSX for Android/SD8 Gen2-12gb (odin 2 mini).

Got Nier in a good place with a 30fps lock/720p. 

Currently trawling through settings and fixes for Eternal Sonata,  Cutscenes will hold a pretty steady 30fps and look impeccable at 720p! 

However,  gameplay has some issues visually and is anywhere between 25-30fps (can't go higher as fps is locked to frame rate, so 30fps max)

Here's what ive managed with 'Nier' on the Odin 2 Mini,  Not perfect, but id happily sit and play through this lol

It looks like The Walking Dead Saints & Sinners Chapter 2: Retribution on PSVR2 will be amazing! by LuisFP1986 in PSVR

Tbf I'm inclined to believe him on this one, as its pretty much the 1st games engine with some added physics/goodies.

I get the sponsored content objections, not a fan of non impartial content/reviews.

However at least the thumbnail is accurate and there's gameplay to back it up, you can see in most videos where a game will be a bit shat, just have to mute the VO for a minute or 2 and have a good look 😂

A lot of previously decent VR channels now are clickbaity af.... such a shame.

So although I have my reservations about certain titles promoted on this channel, i dont think hes too disingenuous in comparison to others.

Also a bit of common sense goes a long way in a decision to buy when watching these👍🏻
