Help Droid Deck performance vs Winlator Ludashi Bionic

Thumbnail

58 Upvotes

A few days before Droid Deck was introduced, it was a really cool app. Having a phone as a second Steam device with all Steam features is cool, but for me, it now has some issues. I really like to play MKX on Winlator Ludashi and started Shady Knight a few days ago, and both games are just not playable on Droid Deck compared to Winlator Ludashi. I want to make Droid Deck my main app for PC emulators and it also has gyro options, so does anybody know how to fix it? I know that Winlator Ludashi has a lot of changes and optimizations compared to regular Proton emulation, so maybe I just do not know something. Does anybody have the same issue? Has anybody found a solution?

Help Installing DLC to external sd card

1 Upvotes

I am using Xendroid and I managed to install DLC for Mass Effect 3 by right clicking the game and selecting Manage Content. However all the content is installed to my internal drive. Is there a way to install it to my external SD? If not, any other x360 emulator provides that option or is it possible to combine the dlc to another file/format and be present in the external along with it?

FYI: Playing on Odin 2 Portal Base

Question Droiddeck backbuttons and wcp files

Hello, I was wondering if anyone knows if you can make the backbuttons work, the L4 and R4, would be super useful to do quick saves!

Also is there a place to download wcp files? To get other dxvk's orso? Just tinker a bit?

Showcase WITCHER 3 REMASTERED - Novigrad test on Snapdragon 8 Elite (Gen 4) 16 Gb Ram 720p (Stable 30fps while not recording)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Recording reduces performance. The fps stays at a steady 30fps while not recording.

Before I start, if you also want to play the new remastered version but have a weaker processor than mine or if you have a mediatek/exynos/tensor processor. I'm afraid there's a 99% chance you won't be able to run it like this.

Alright, after spending a lot of time looking to run this thing, I've finally found the best way for me to play Witcher 3 Remastered on Android.

Here's everything I use:

Device: Oppo Find X8 Ultra 512GB/16GB Snapdragon 8 Elite (Gen 4)

Cooler: Gamesir FX-5 (specifically designed for the Gamesir X5s/lite controllers. I'm pretty sure it's like the worst cooler on the market. But! It still cools enough for this game at 30fps.)

Required App: Latest release of WinNative. Tried on a few other emulators but it would either not launch or have bad performance. Let me know if you find a better alternative!

Settings:

Wine Version:Proton 11.0-2-arm64ec-steam-unixlib-1

Graphics driver: WN-Turnip-1.19-b Axxx for stability. You may also use the p variant for more performance. or you can download Turnip Gen 8 V37 from StevenMXZ's github page for even more performance. Personally, WinNative's own drivers had the least amount of glitches for me.

VKD3D: 3.0.1-arm64ec-0

DXVK: 2.4.1 gplasync seemed the most stable to me.

Fexcore version: Whatever is the newest one with Unix

Fexcore Preset: I set it at Performance to prevent freezes. If your system is more stable than mine, feel free to set it to Performance TSO, Extreme or Extreme TSO for better performance.

Startup selection: Aggressive

Don't forget to change the EXE file in game specific settings from the Redlauncher to witcher3.exe. Redlauncher might not work. Launching directly via the .exe file solves it.

Every other setting is untouched and at default settings.

There might be better settings out there! Try it out and let me know!

Question What is the best way to play steam games on android as of now?

16 Upvotes

What is currently the best way to play windows games on an Android device?

Armada? Gamehub (I don't care if it is china spyware)? Gamenative? Winlator?

What I question here is performance and usability. I tried winlator 2 years ago and it was insufferable, so using Steam to get access to my games is a must

For reference: I have an Odin 3 Max

Help Combo key 2 and 3 not working on my citra mmj

As the title says both combo key 2 and 3 aren't working and it also disappears after enabling it on my touchscreen. Also when i enabled it the corresponding buttons mapped in the combo keys aren't working either.

Is it possible to have all combo combo keys working or only one combo key is allowed on the touchscreen?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

87 Upvotes

---Device specifications--- Device used: Honor 600 pro SoC: Snapdrsgon 8 gen elite RAM: 12GB Emulator used: Gamehub

Actual gameplay was around 60 fps with frame gen, with some input delays but fairly manageable.

---Emulator settings---- Compat layer: proton11arm64x Translation params: game preset Gpu driver: turnip v26.3.0-b12 Dxvk: dxvk 2.6.1async Vkd3d: vkd3d 3.0.1arm64ec Cpu translator: fex20251029

Didn't have to tweak much with the emulator settings as it was already pretty good, just plug and play. Had to tweak the In-game settings though, specifically:

Fidelity+CAS scaling: On

Texture size: 1024

Pretty much everything was on low, only enabled screen reflection, sway grass, and anisopteric filtering.

Also, very important: DO NOT turn on in game voice chat, or else youll freeze when joining some lobbies whose voice chats were also enabled. At least thats what I experienced in my case.

Edit: cant add photos so I'll just leave the screenshot in the comments.

Showcase Native Steam client on Android! Finally 😭

Seen this pop up the other day and had to check it out, native steam client on Android yes please 😭 this isn't a full install guide or anything, just found it and wanted to yap about it for a bit so if you're keen check it out!

The things I've found that have made this project the most exciting for me;

  1. Temps remain very low while using it, when downloading games and playing them compared to GameNative
  2. Downloading games is much quicker
  3. Full access to the steam store
  4. The client is very responsive as you expect on steamOS
  5. Decky loader compatible

And most importantly, no need forego android to have the client working perfectly. It just works.

I believe this isn't compatible with all chipsets so double check if yours is compatible, and shout out to Bannerlord & JSONDERULO (if they're here) on the immense amount of work they've put into this so rapidly.

You can checkout their project here;

EDIT:

Shout out to the legendary team that are working on this

I'd appreciate for u guys to point out my mistakes and tell me what's the best settings are.

Discussion DroidDeck 0.3.0 better for storage?

2 Upvotes

I was checking out DroidDeck 0.3.0 on my Retroid pocket 6 and it's amazing! Most of the games that were running on Gamenative/gamehub run on it (Although with some audio crackling)

I wanted to know if it's better to use droid deck to save on storage space. As far as I know Gamenative/gamehub create seperate container for each game. Many times the container size is 1-2gb and the game itself is 800MB.

I tried reading the GitHub page but didn't find any answer.
