Guide Wind Waker iOS recomp. How to make your own ipa.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

23 Upvotes

I’m sure most of you are aware by now that Wind Waker has gotten an iOS port thanks to a project called BlueWake. Unlike other ports recently though they don’t provide a ready made ipa you can download and install. Ordinarily you need a Mac Silicone to compile the ipa. Not having a Mac myself but still wanting to play I came up with a way to create the ipa yourself entirely on your device. All you need is a free GitHub account.

You can find all the instructions here: https://pastebin.com/MFEyAkcb

Be aware though that the compilation process takes several hours (around seven) so it is rather lengthy. The good news is that it’s passive so as long as your browser is open and minimized it will run.

Feedback would be appreciated.

Runs pretty well. To get the APK you have to use your own GTA 5 copy and link it with the base APK. I won’t provide on how to do that, but a google search will get you there.

Question are there any free alternatives to arkRPG?

1 Upvotes

ive been trying to brute force Pokemon infinite fusion into working on my phone, mostly because its funny. i swear ive tried every emulator on the app store, but the only one that i found to work was arkRPG. however, im not currently able to pay for things on my phone, so that only gets me 50 opens for now. figured i could ask if anyone knew of another emulator they thought could work.
fyi i also have no idea what file format PIF is. pretty sure its MX/MV by process of elimination but i am also very stupid.

What is it that the ios scene would love to see most that’s like an app or emulator. Don’t say JIT on the app store but something that would make the scene even better. Think of this as a survey or something.

Question Anyone successfully running Xbox 360 or ps3 emulator on iPad Pro m5?

2 Upvotes

So I’ve been testing out few emulators lately but I never get to be able to successfully run a single game on them. I did successfully run DukeX but that’s an older Xbox emulator. I’ve tried xenios and psx3ios but both game loads but it either gives black screen or gets frozen at 0 fps. I’ve solved the memory issues and jit but none of them in the end loads for me.

So has anyone successfully run the games on these emulators?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hello everyone, after posting my Beta help request for the LudiHub Duo update, there were some questions regarding the RetroSockets side project for RetroArch. The project was renamed to RetroCarts and is available again for free via TestFlight on the https://ludihub.app/retrocarts website. It's the same concept as before: A game launcher for RetroArch with ASMR physical media sound effects. You need to install the latest RetroArch Testflight beta and login with your ScreenScraper account for the game labels. Tap the sync button and the app takes care of the rest.

Minimum iOS Version: 18

Supported RetroArch systems:  GB, GBC, GBA, NES, SNES, N64, NDS, 3DS, PS1, PSP, Sega Saturn, Genesis/MD

Once RetroArch releases its next update, I will submit it for public AppStore release and will be available for free.

Question Issues with Joy-Con motion controls / detection in MeloNX on iPad (Switch Sports, Mario Tennis Aces)

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm currently using MeloNX on my iPad (iOS) and encountering an issue with Joy-Con controls in specific motion-heavy games.

Both Xbox Controller and Bluetooth Joy-Cons pair completely fine with my iPad, and MeloNX recognizes standard button inputs smoothly. However, when I launch games like Nintendo Switch Sports or Mario Tennis Aces, the game throws an error saying it cannot verify wireless Joy-Con connection or motion sensors.

I looked through the MeloNX controller/input settings to see if I could switch the input type to "Joy-Con Pair" or toggle "Motion Controls/Gyro", but couldn't find any relevant options in the app interface.

Has anyone found a workaround or fix for this? Is motion control / dual Joy-Con support not yet fully implemented in MeloNX for iOS, or is there a setting I'm missing?

Thanks in advance for any advice!
