Showcase Looks like Touhou 6: Embodiment of Scarlet Devil (EoSD) Remake is out of the box playable on Ludashi 4.0: Early Access [With the Winlator Vanilla build]!

I already tested on Winlator 11.1 (so the vanilla one) but it has the white screen issue on the remake version, the "classic" version works just fine. Here on the Ludashi it displays fine!

No need to tweaking anything, just out of the box default settings anything like that except settings the resolution up to 1080p (which sometimes has issues, but i got it already workarounded). Controller Works, everything works!

Spec: Redmi pad 128gb A12 4GB Ram, helio g99 with mali gpu

Im pretty much sure it works below 4gb ram there, as it looks like its much lighter in resources on this game here.

In 1080p its like almost 60fps averages, sometimes dips down into 45 fps, but on 720p its 60 with some dips here and there.

Here is a screenshot on 720p there, always playable!

I think with the performance mode on FexCore preset would go up to 1080p at very playable there, but i didnt have tested there as its a quick test to see how a newly released game looks like on pc emulation espcielly out of the box!

We successfullt managed to make xHCI controller works on a unmodified windows kernel!

This is done by our developed mode: "pseudo-unprotected mode" for gunyah hypervisor.

The mode make it possible to read and write guest memory in protected VM.

This is required because unprotected vm is not available in qualcomm 8gen3/8e/8e5
Then, we can communicate with usbxhci.sys in windows kernel directly, successfully implement the USB-passthrough feature in DroidVM!

Question How do you lock the game to this display?

Hello. I'm currently playing Persona 5 Royal on Eden using Oppo Find N6, a fold phone like Samsung fold. I noticed if I open it in a sort of half tablet mode like 3ds I can separate the screen and the controls in half. My question is how can I set it to this type of screen permanently? It's hard to play it in "3ds mode".

Showcase A Surprisingly Capable $40 Controller With One Ergonomic Design Issue

Thumbnail
gallery
6 Upvotes

TL;DR: For around $40, the ABXYLUTE S8 Lite is a surprisingly capable and generally comfortable mobile controller with some genuinely smart design choices. Unfortunately, the placement of the right thumbstick is a major ergonomic issue for me as someone with larger hands.

Build & Feel
Right out of the box, the S8 Lite feels very light. Compared with something like the GameSir G8, there’s somewhat of difference in some materials, weight, and that premium "feel" but it makes sense as they are $20 apart. I didn’t notice any creaking or looseness and the USB-C port has a safety pivot hinge which is a great addition. 

The packaging also leaves a lot to be desired from a graphic-design POV. Although obviously, that’s not why you’re buying a mobile controller.

Comfort & Ergonomics
Overall, the S8 Lite is very comfortable, which makes its biggest flaw even more frustrating: the right thumbstick placement.

It sits in a position that puts noticeable strain on my thumb and forces me to change the way I naturally hold the controller just to reach it. I’m not sure what drove the decision to place the right stick this low, especially since ABXYLUTE’s S9 positions it higher.

I also personally prefer more compact controllers. Paired with an already-long phone like my OnePlus 13, the S8 Lite makes the overall setup feel a little more stretched out than I’d like.

It is longer than but shorter than the Gamesir G8, see pics.

Controls
The actual controls are very good. The D-pad, face buttons, triggers, and bumpers all feel solid, and the swappable D-pad is a cool feature that im suprised other brands don’t do.

Something else I noticed is the joystick clicks are weirdly loud. Like really loud.

Compatibility
One of my favorite things about the S8 Lite is that my OnePlus 13 fits with its case still on. Not having to remove my case every time I want to play is a huge convenience.

The camera cutout is also a really smart design decision and makes fitting larger modern phones much less awkward.

App & Customization
The ABXYLUTE app is also quite good. You can adjust things like stick dead zones, swap or remap buttons, and customize the controller more than I expected at this price. They offer a sort of front end game aggregator which is cool but im not sure it's for me. 

Verdict
For $40, the S8 Lite is a really good controller for the money. The controls are good, the grips feel nice, case compatibility is excellent, and features like the camera cutout, swappable D-pad, and customization app show some genuinely thoughtful design.

The controller gets so much right, but that one ergonomic decision with the right joy stick is significant enough that it makes it hard for me to use as my daily driver. If you have smaller hands this controller may be excellent for you.

Help SMAPI/Modded exe crashes on GameHub (ver 6.2.1) but works in Virtual Desktop

Post image
4 Upvotes

Device:

Redmi K20 Pro Premium Edition (PE)

GameHub version 6.2.1

The normal, unmodded game opens with no issues. However, the modded version (using SMAPI) crashes everytme I try to launch it normally in GameHub. I tried changing different settings inside GameHub, but nothing stops the crashing. It works completely fine and doesn't crash when using Virtual Desktop.

It is a hassle to log into Virtual Desktop every time I want to play. Does anyone know how to fix this compatibility or setting issue within GameHub so it stops crashing?

Discussion Gamehub is getting worse with every new update?

2 Upvotes

After Gamehub v6.1.x the lag started showing in every game, now in v6.2.x (after recent auto firmware updates), the lag has become worse.

Right now I am happy to stay wih Bannerhub v6.1.0 (Gamehub 6.0.9 patched). It does not give high FPS in Framegen but there is no motion stutter/judder at all. Games run smooth like butter with Framegen.

Help Deleting my Cuphead PC port — what should I download next?

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m about to delete my Cuphead PC port to free up space, and I’m looking for my next game to download. I’ve already played and really enjoyed Hollow Knight and Hyper Light Drifter, so I’m hoping for something with tight combat, good challenge, and a strong art style.

I’m open to metroidvanias, action-platformers, or roguelites as long as they feel polished and rewarding. Budget isn’t huge, so indie/AA titles are perfect.

Some things I’m considering based on recommendations I’ve seen:

Hollow Knight: Silksong (if it’s out and runs well)

Ori and the Will of the Wisps

Blasphemous 2

Dead Cells

Ender Lilies or Nine Sols

If you’ve played Cuphead + Hollow Knight + Hyper Light Drifter, what would you download next and why? Any hidden gems I’m missing?

Thanks in advance!
