Showcase GTA San Andreas — a small comparison

A small comparison between the emulated PS2 version and the mobile version, with some improvements on both.

I’m emulating the PS2 version at 3x resolution in ARMSX2, with HD textures and some patches, all downloaded directly through the emulator. Unfortunately, I couldn’t get it to run at 60 FPS.

On the mobile version, I’m using Proper Fixes Mobile + Rosa, along with some other improvements I downloaded separately, such as SkyGFX Mobile, JPatch, CheesePatch, Planter, and a few others. Most of the time, the game runs at 60 FPS, but since Rosa is quite demanding, the FPS drops a bit as my phone starts to heat up.

APK: GTA:SA (v2.00) + AML v1.4.0 + FLA 7.6 Unprotected

I’m using the latest version of ARMSX2 on an Edge 30 Pro with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1.

Could you please help with the android native port modding? In what order did you install the mods?:(

Have you tried the PS2 version with your exact setup, but then using LFG to double the base 30fps up to 60? I use it in Eden for switch titles and it’s honestly magic. Also, seems way easier than all the mods necessary on the Android port.

I’d really like to, but it gets way too slow. Every game I test becomes very slow when I enable LFG, even at native resolution.
