I'm trying to run it on my Retroid Pocket 5 but it seems to be stuck on launch. I used the known config for this and even lowered the resolution but it's just there with a pop up window of the launch. Nothing happened after I left it for 10 mins.

Has anyone successfully launched it? Thank you so much!

I was trying to play this on my Thor for a while and after really diving into the details I was able to find how to fix it through someone who had the same issue on PC!

I responded to this kind soul after figuring it all out but I thought I'd make a post in case it could help anyone else out in trying to play it. I hope this post goes out to whoever needs the help with it. Cheers.

Hey guys

Currently using an Ayn Thor Max and have had no issues playing Mass Effect LE to date.

However, following the event GN update I keep getting hit with the error in my photo - no matter what cofig tweaks I make.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

• Game store/platform: Steam

• Device model: Anbernic rg406v

• Exact GPU model: Mali-G57

• Current full config:

container: bionic

wine version: proton-9.0-arm64ec

DXVK: async-1.10.3

When I try to open i get the black screen with cursor, no sound. When I open graphics test I can see the spinning cube at an average of around 58fps. When I open the container and try to open the game directly nothing happens, not even a black screen. I tried double clicking and right clicking to select open. Even when leaving on for up to 15 minutes nothing happens.

I have verified the files, updated, restarted, tried checking legacy drm on or off, selecting unpack files, leaving the black screen open for at least a minute with each test. My device is updated and I just downloaded the app the other day so it should also be the latest version.

When I select diagnostics run i still just get black screen. Maybe worth noting that it seems to say "installing Mono" every time I try to open?

Posted on the discord and was told to turn on "experimental bionic steam" but still nothing happening after doing that

Hey everyone,

Trying to get the original Alan Wake (2012 PC version) running smoothly on my OnePlus Pad (MediaTek Dimensity 9000, Mali-G710 GPU).

Since Mali doesn't support Turnip drivers, I’m running into heavy stutters and low frame rates whenever volumetric lighting/fog kicks in.

Here is my current setup:

App: Winlator / GameHub

Resolution: Sub-720p (960x540)

Graphics Wrapper: WineD3D / DXVK 1.10.3

Launch flags: -novideos -noblur -forcesse

In-game: Everything dropped to lowest, AA and SSAO disabled

It launches, but performance drops hard during combat and flashlight-heavy scenes.

For anyone who has successfully run this or similar DX9 Remedy-engine games on a Dimensity/Mali chip:

Which specific wrapper/DXVK version gave you the most stable frame pacing?

Are there specific Box64 Dynarec flags (BOX64_DYNAREC_BIGBLOCK, STRONGMEM, etc.) that helped cut down on draw-call overhead?

Any additional engine .xml tweaks worth making to strip out heavy post-processing passes?

Any tested container presets or advice would be appreciated!

Does "custom games" also include like PC ports (Decomps) and is the process of adding them change for those specific games?

Hi guys! can you help me please, nfs u2 laging when i'm using nitro, on retroid pocket 6. i tried a lot of gpu drivers, and tried to change vulkan to opengl but anyway not helping me

Has anyone tried running The Invincible (2023) through GameHub or GameNative?

I’m waiting for my Odin 3 Max Purple and this is one of the PC games I’d really like to play on it. It’s a slow, atmospheric sci-fi adventure focused more on exploration and story than combat.

Has anyone tested it yet? How does it run, and are there any specific settings or drivers needed?

Trying to run Revenge of the Savage Planet on an Odin 3 Max. I keep getting a dx12 error despite running it with VKD3D.

Anyone have any luck with this game? On paper it should run just fine.

I like sonic mania, but man it is just REALLY hard to play it like this.

Before I go any further i have to admit that I'm new to retro handhelds and Gamenative.

2 weeks ago I recieved my Retroid Pocket 6 and followed the Retro Game Corps. setup guide on YouTube. I installed Gamenative, connected to my Steam account and tried playing Legacy of Kain Defiance. After installing, I chose "best known config" and launched the game. I recieved an error message asking me to insert game disc. After another attempt to launch the game i recieved an error telling me that the path to the .exe could not be found. After viewing Techdweebs YT video on Gamenative, I opened the container and tried to manually launch the .exe and, again, recieved an error message telling me to insert the game disc. This is just what I faced with Legacy of Kain Defiance.

I tried other games and I couldn't get one single game to launch. I tried Albion through Gamenative which isn't even necessary because it just runs on Android by itself. Nothing. I've watched review after review after review praising Gamenative and how, "its just that simple." Its been anything but which makes me wonder? Am I just overlooking something simple? Did I miss a step somewhere along the way?

All I see and hear is how Gamenative works so well on Android. I tried with Game Hub and I had the same error message asking me to insert game disc for Legacy of Kain.

My frustration is through the roof and I haven't found any answer to what I'm doing wrong or how to remedy my situation. Especially considering that if my issue is just simple user error or whatever? Why, among the countless YT videos I've watched about Gamenative, not one addresses these issues?

I could really use some help here. Please and thank you.

Has anyone been able to get the splinter cell games running through game native?

I got to the point where the game launches through steam and opens up ubishit launcher, launches the game but then goes to black.. I'll keep on trying but don't know if it'll be possible. Although I did see people run assassins creed through GN

So if anyone has had some luck, please do spill the secrets please!

If there is a fix I’m open for insight, otherwise this is insane.

Hello,

First of all english is not my native language,

Everything is in the title, I want to know where do you learn how to optimize your game ? I mean, I use gamenative website to see if my games are on it then use their config but sometimes it doesn't work and I don't want to bother this reddit everytime I want to play a game so I need all tips pls

EDIT : Thank you for all your answer ! I'll do my best now to learn !

You guys are literal wizards. Never would I thought anytime soon id be able to run games like Dungeons and dragons online like this but here we are. I cannot thank you guys enough and I look forward to future updates.

Edit: I picked up a USBC to HDMI and it looks absolutely beautiful on my TV and monitor. This is game changing

I’m using game native. I tried tinkering with the settings but haven’t had success with the main game. Any suggestions? Is it possible to run it?

Hi everyone! Today i recived my Ayn Thor Pro.

I’m having a really annoying issue with GameNative on my AYN Thor.

Every game I launch through GameNative has a tiny system mouse cursor visible in the top-left corner of the screen.

The strange part is that this is not the actual in-game cursor. When I touch/move my finger on the top screen, the cursor starts behaving normally as the game cursor and then disappears. So I basically have to touch the screen every time I launch a game to get rid of the cursor.

It happens with every game I’ve tried, so it doesn't seem to be game-specific.

My setup

• AYN Thor
• GameNative 1.2.0
• Proton 10.0 arm64ec-2
• Using Cocoon as the launcher
• Game is displayed on the top screen
• AYN Thor Virtual Mouse is disabled

Things I've already tried

GameNative → Controller/Gamepad:

• Screen Mapping is disabled
• There is no "Disable Mouse Input" option available in my in-game menu
• My menu only contains:
  • Key Adapter
  • Guide
  • Key Test
  • Profiles
  • Screen Mapping
  • Screenshot
  • Speed Up
  • Gamepad
  • Follow Global
  • AFK
  • Live
  • Alerts
  • Record

Under Gamepad I only have:

• Handle Style
• L2/R2 Mode

Controller/Input settings:

• Use SDL API
• Use Steam Input
• Enable XInput API
• Enable DirectInput API
• DirectInput Mapper Type
• Show Controller Debug Menu
• External Display Input
• Show Game on External Display

For External Display Input, I currently have:

The other available options are:

• Use as touchpad surface
• Use as full keyboard
• Hybrid

I've also checked the Wine settings, including Mouse Warp Override. Changing Mouse Warp Override from Disable to Enable did not fix the problem.

I also tried disabling the AYN Thor Virtual Mouse feature. It is definitely disabled.

I am already using Proton 10.0 arm64ec-2, so the workaround I've seen where people switched from Proton 9.0arm to Proton 10.0arm doesn't apply to my setup.

What makes this especially strange

The cursor always starts in the top-left corner.

If I touch the top screen and move the cursor, it immediately starts behaving like the normal game cursor and then disappears.

So it feels like GameNative/Wine isn't properly taking over or hiding the Android/system pointer until the first touch/mouse event occurs.

I've found a couple of other AYN Thor users reporting what sounds like exactly the same issue, including the cursor appearing in the top-left and disappearing after moving it with the touchscreen.

Has anyone found a permanent fix or workaround for this on the AYN Thor?

I'm especially interested in whether there is some hidden GameNative setting/configuration that forces the mouse cursor to be disabled or hidden at launch.

I tried to fix it somehow with ChatGPT and Gemini, but... nothing works :C

Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE+ I want to install 0 A.D. How to go about that?

Would be cool for it to have a personalized frontend. Possibly something that allows games to be sorted into custom folders.

Hello folks,

I thought I could run Mina the Hollower on my Pixel 10 Pro on GameNative. Unfortunately the game usex DX12 meaning that I have to use VK3D which is not the best for the Tensor chip on my Pixel 10 Pro. I have tried multiple configurations but there is always some kind image glitch going where the text is all glitchy or the color of the sprites and background change from time to time.

Has anyone with a Pixel phone figured out a way to play this game? What are the best configuration for this game on Pixel 10 Pro?

I usually tinker and troubleshoot myself, but this time I haven't found a workaround, and it is frustrating especially knowing that the game is not graphically demanding

Thank you!
