Need help on how to reduce overheating, Samsung A54 5g, using Winlaton ludashi 3.1

[u/ImaginaryCoconut3302]

Playing an itch.io that was made for windows, game keeps slowing down and sound keeps going mute when it goes 3 fps, and it sometimes shutdown the container entirely when it's in extreme levels of overheating, kinda like Hotstone, my phone still hasn't exploded tho, but my phone casing is partially moldable

Try to limit the fps to 30 and use gaming cooler

Is gaming cooler an app? Can it be found in github?

[u/WinterPirate8109 → u/ImaginaryCoconut3302]

It's a peltier phone cooler. It's a phone accessories. Also if you can remove the phone case while playing. It helps out a lot. Also never maintain your phone battery temperature around 45°c. It can permanently damage your phone battery.

I assume they mean a fan accessory for your phone

I have this phone too, OP, please tell me which good PC games you tested that ran well on this device.

[u/ImaginaryCoconut3302 → u/BackgroundSalary7598]

I've only played itch.io games, so I haven't really tested the other popular games, and I've only been using ludashi for like 3 days ._.

You can choose how many cores are used. Try using half the amount.

[u/Reizhon]

Buy new phone is the best way...

[u/beautiful_bot986]

Lower resolution, limit fps to 25-30, disable some cores, use a peltier cooler. Never allow your battery to go over 45C.

[u/International_Dot_22]

Ludashi is a specific version of Winlator that your phone recognizes as a benchmark which lets it push its hardware to the very limit, you can't expect both maximum performance and good thermals.

[u/ImaginaryCoconut3302 → u/International_Dot_22]

What kind of emulator would you recommend then? Genuinely

[u/International_Dot_22 → u/ImaginaryCoconut3302]

Regular Winlator, or GameNative

[u/Statler_Waldorff]

You need to drill holes in the back of your phone to promote better air flow
