GameHub Lite v5.1.8

Mods don't remove this again please

The Nova I’ve had for 2-3 weeks
God of War: Ghost of Sparta using PPSSPP
Total time was 7 hours and 6 minutes
Probably could have done it in 1 charge, psp sips the battery in the nova

What's new:

ARMSX2 2.6.8

Three emulation fixes:

Three core fixes from u/bmdhacks and u/pstef. Other than Shaolin Monks, they almost certainly fix more games with the same issues than just these.

Sly 3: Sly rendered solid white. The VU divide unit applied the console's ceiling behaviour unconditionally when the hardware only does it in certain clamp modes. u/pstef gated it properly (#645).

Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks divides toward positive infinity, which the EE doesn't do by default. Now in the GameDB. done by u/bmdhacks

Tales of the Abyss and Metal Gear Solid 2/3: the GS blend-mix factor was assuming FBA instead of reading it from the context. Fixed by u/bmdhacks

Controllers:

Fixes to controller rumble.

DualSense and DualShock 4 rumble now works over USB.

Optionally ARMSX2 can take a wired PlayStation pad over completely (Settings --> Pad --> Direct USB control), which gets you both motors independently and real analog triggers. Off by default: it claims the pad's only HID interface, so custom bindings don't apply while it's on, and you'll want to replug after turning it off.

Rumble also finds motors it used to miss. We were asking Android for a pad's vibrators in an order that silences controllers which work fine when asked the other way round.

You can now assign controllers to player slots (Settings --> Pad). Slots used to go to whoever pressed a button first, which on a handheld is the built-in pad, so external controllers kept landing on player 2. Assignments stick per controller across reconnects.

You can also pick where each pad's rumble goes: the controller, the device, or off.

One pad no longer answers for every player. An unclaimed slot fell back to "whichever pad was touched last", which names the same controller for every port, so one DualSense could swallow both players' rumble.

Drawer rows can no longer become unreachable by controller.

Other fixes:

Sustained Performance now overrides Performance Cores, which 2.6.7 made the default. Picking the battery profile was still leaving threads on the fast cluster.

On-screen controls stop hiding while you're using them if you have auto-hide enabled. Holding a button counted as idle, so they'd vanish mid-game.

2.6.7's quick loading uses far less memory. Extracted files are dropped from the page cache as they're written instead of piling up, which was getting lower-RAM devices killed partway through setup

This is Basic Mali G57 Device (No MC2+ variant) & 3GB RAM , Midnight Club never went about 15 fps but now it's steady 30 FPS on 2x

Lmao ignore the device warning😞

Feral interactive is porting it. I hope the mods will allow this since most people have agreed that news about android ports are relevant to the sub.

Sorry if I posted this prematurely without the decision being finalized but the mods.

Android Phone + controller for SNES, GameBoy, GB Advance etc... Objective is to keep things very very retro on this setup to avoid heating or battery issues.

RP6 : planning on installing Rocknix to dig into my steam account backlog with oldest and/or indie game.

Hope i'll have a blast.

Please let me know if you have some recommandation of games you have really enjoyed with similar setups.

Hey everyone!

I have just tagged and released v1.4.0 of XGDTool, a comprehensive utility designed to inspect, convert, verify, and extract Xbox Original and Xbox 360 game disc formats.

The original project by wiredopposite had been largely abandoned for nearly two years. To address unresolved bugs, unmerged community pull requests, and modern toolchain issues, I took over development, revived the project, and unified the entire workflow.

Links & Downloads

• GitHub Repository & Releases: github.com/Ashnar2602/XGDTool
• Comprehensive Project Wiki: github.com/Ashnar2602/XGDTool/wiki

What’s New & Key Highlights

• Unified Multiplatform Codebase: The separate Android and desktop repositories are now completely merged into a single codebase. Windows/Linux builds and Android APKs are released and maintained together under one roof.
• Broad Format Coverage: Full support for inspecting, verifying, and converting between Xbox Original and Xbox 360 formats, including raw ISO, XISO, GOD (Games on Demand), ZAR, CCI, and CSO.
• Modernized Toolchain & Dependency Upgrades: Clean builds across modern compilers (Visual Studio 2022, modern Clang/GCC) with updated dependencies, fixing compilation and library issues from older revisions.
• Integrated Open PRs & Critical Bug Fixes: Merged lingering community fixes and addressed several edge-case crashes during extraction and multi-disc archive handling.
• Dedicated On-Device Android Support: Native ARM64 support with modern Storage Access Framework (SAF) integration, allowing direct disc conversion, extraction, and trimming on mobile devices and handhelds without needing a PC.
• Full Documentation & Wiki: Added an exhaustive wiki covering format specifications, step-by-step conversion guides, CLI parameters, and GUI workflows for long-term project reference.

Whether you are prepping your library for desktop emulators like Xenia and Xemu, or converting images on the go for mobile emulation, v1.4.0 covers the entire pipeline.

Grab the latest binary or APK from the release link above, test it with your dumps, and let me know if you hit any edge cases or have feedback!

This is GTA 4,on high Settings 1080p on 8Gen 5 The game runs at stable 30fps (I prefer 30fps cause my phone doesn't get Hot and the PWR draw is under 4to5 watt + Which gives me awesome battery life without damaging my Phones Hardware and I cannot carry a phone cooler while Travelling to work)

ONEPLUS 15R

Gamehub Settings:- ^Resolution 1080p ^IN Game Settings_Medium to High (Distance details and Draw distance set to 60-70) ^GPU Driver Turnip v26.2.0 B8 ^DXVK Version_2.3.1 arm64 async ^VKD3D_Proton 3.0a ^{VRam_Unlimited CPU} Cores_Unlimited Compatibility Layer_Proton 11.0-arm64x ^{CPU_Fex_20260509}

Note_You might see the PWR usage High,But that's Cause I am screen recording this, And the fps are very stable locked to 30 without recording has well

What's New ?

- New UI,Themed and Etc..

Was able to get the Blue Dragon recomp running on Gamehub and working great on the Odin 2 Portal. But in my searching for the how to, seems the majority of posts I read pointed at Game Native as a better option to Gamehub. Looking for information as to the possibly why I guess. Is there something inherently better about Game Native that I am unaware of?

I just got this phone and I need a gamepad for winlator/eden. I want to get an X3 Pro because it has cooling. I keep hearing different opinions. What I actually need: bypass charging & cooling. Which one do you think is the best for me?

I hate new Lemuroid touch controls. I like old transparent one. New one is hardly transparent, blocking some dialogues if the screen a bit bigger and overlapping under touch controls. Even L and R buttons got smaller

Hi everyone!

For the past two months I've been working on an Android app that makes online play on emulators simple and mostly automatic. Here's the result: meet Emufii.

The goal is to make emulator multiplayer something anyone can actually use. The app works a bit like a frontend: all your games in one place, and you can open a session on any compatible game right there. Your friends join, you run the automatic emulator setup, and that's it, you're playing online.

How it works

When you create or join a session, a WireGuard tunnel opens between everyone in that session. Your devices end up on the same virtual local network, so the local wireless features of your games just work. Right now that covers Azahar, Eden and PPSSPP, with Dolphin, ARMSX2 and melonDS in there too. Not every emulator does multiplayer the same way, so have a look at the GitHub for the details per platform. The DS one is a good example, it goes to real online servers rather than faking a local link. The app also handles the dual screen on the AYN Thor, which is the only test bench I have. Feel free to try it on any other handheld or phone running Android 13 and tell me how it went.

Now the awkward part, how it was built

Emufii was co-created with Claude Code, and I'm not going to dress it up the way some people do: roughly 90% of the app was written by the model. What I can tell you is that nearly all of that code has been reviewed, and other developers are now starting to write and rewrite parts of the app as they join the project. There's a "How it was built" section on the GitHub page with a bit more detail. And if that's a dealbreaker for you and you'd rather not install it, honestly no problem, I get it.

If you're interested

Whether you want to join the project because the idea speaks to you, or you just want to play online with your friends, the Discord and GitHub links are below. The app is completely free and works today, but it's still in beta, so please report anything you run into on Discord and it'll get fixed quickly.

Thanks for reading, and maybe see you on the app!

No discord link requests pls

Winlator ludashi 4.0

i locked the fps to 55 to get a consistent stable fps. but it can reach more than that. it can even reach 100+ if post processing and weather fx are off

Hi all,

I'm fairly new to this, I've started emulating on my old Xiaomi pad 5. I've been looking into handhelds, specially because I want to play while travelling and they make portability easy. However, when comparing specs with newer tablets or phones, handhelds seem too expensive and their specs aren't better.

What are the advantages of handhelds vs tablets and phones? For reference, I can emulate up to NDS and PS2 in my old tablet, and I was looking into AYN Thor or similar handhelds to get into switch emulation. However, I see that for a similar price I can buy the Xiaomi Pad 7 pro that has better specs (and I probably would receive it earlier and without import or customs fees).

Just looking for other points of view,

Thank you all!
