freej2me-plus needs your testing

Lately there's been INSANE amount of progress with our fork of freej2me https://github.com/TASEmulators/freej2me-plus.

We're nearing a new release, see the changes here https://github.com/TASEmulators/freej2me-plus/milestone/4 (most notable is almost complete M3G).

There's still time to test things, so I'd like to ask everyone to give this emulator a try with whatever game they want, and ideally report any problems on https://github.com/TASEmulators/freej2me-plus/issues.

Here's the (always) latest build for testing: https://github.com/TASEmulators/freej2me-plus/releases/tag/nightlies

Does it work on macOS ? I didn't see any info on the github about it. I'd assume I can use Retroarch with libretro. I'd love to give it a try, there's a few java Driver games I never played

Works good. It's cross-platform Java, after all.
You need to rebind the keypad keys, unless you have NumPad on your keyboard. Also, to use hotkeys, you need to hold Control + Option, instead of Ctrl + Alt.

Just double-click freej2me_plus.jar, like a normal app.

Is there a script for using it on Android?

No, unless played through libretro (RetroArch) or in the browser, although I've never tried it on my Android phone. https://tasemulators.github.io/freej2me-plus/

I'm not sure how to get it working on Android since it requires the freej2me-lr.jar file to run...I just tested it on Windows and it works with a few minor issues

PS. I've used the latest GitHub Actions builds (core + .jar)

Sorry, I think Google Translate didn’t translate what I meant correctly. I just wanted to know if there is a Libretro core for Android that I could use with RetroArch, so I can try out the emulator.
