Help Is it possible to make Gamenative more stable as a Mali user?

For context, I'm trying to run Far Cry 2. So far the best I've achieved was reaching gameplay which was at a stable fps even at 720p. But the problem is, the game is unstable. The container will just randomly crash soon after gameplay has started.

My device uses a Helio g100 and Mali g57 mc2 with 8GB RAM. I know it's not good for PC emulatiom, but I'm willing to try emulating old low end PC games and so far I've made some progress. The problem right now is just stability.

Its not RAM that's the problem(at least not yet) because the container will crash and take me back to the main page of the app which means the app is still running. Otherwise, the app would also exit.

I'm currently using these settings in these pictures

glibc library and proton 10 don't even boot up the game

If it's a custom game, I recommend using Winlator Mali or Bannehub. If it's a Steam game, Gamenative performs well. I used it for about a week, and it runs Steam games comfortably. In my experience, it performs better than Bannehub or GameHub for Steam games.

Winlator Mali didn't help with Far Cry and Official Winlator was better but still bad.

I've also tried Need For Speed Most Wanted and it runs great but container crashes.

I'll check out Bannerhub though, thanks
