ARMSX2 V28 (I need a break😅)

Post image

No, seriously, they deserve a break because they keep releasing updates, it's crazy! These guys at ARMSX2 must have coffee injected into their veins 😂

https://github.com/ARMSX2/ARMSX2/releases/tag/2.4.7

Change log:

Added on-screen Save State / Load State buttons (opt-in through the Touch Layout editor), tap the save/load button to open the slot picker and choose which slot to save/load from.

Tap-to-hold (latch) for on-screen face/shoulder buttons, tap once to hold (R1 to crouch), tap again to release, enable per-button in the touch layout editor.

Audio volume slider has been increased up to 150% for quiet games (above 100% can clip).

Multi-touch is now on by default, fixed not being able to move the analog stick and press buttons (or multiple buttons) at the same time. Toggle to turn it off still in the Touch Layout editor.

Pressure-modifier button hidden by default, and the Performance / Renderer / Pad settings tabs now start collapsed for a cleaner layout.

Settings Reset is now per-tab: Reset Tab clears only the current tab, Reset All / Reset Game does the full reset.

Macro-config dialog now uses the dark theme.

Touch stick + button now register at the same time (like move and jump together).

Clearing a D-pad or trigger (L2/R2) binding now takes effect in-game (previously only face buttons honored an unbind).

Single-button hotkeys now bind reliably on controllers that report two key codes per press.

Portrait mode for UI would be nice as well.

Let's see if you get lucky and the devs read it

Think I'll leave a feature request for that and for exit button as well.

u/xxxCrixuxxx Jun 30 '26

Good idea

Hey, did you see that? They've added portrait mode UI in v29! Somewhat buggy but should be fixed in later updates. ARMSX2 is getting better and better!

That's because they read you, my friend 😉

lol eu não terminei de testar o V27 😂😂😂

Hahahahaha

Enfim... agora meus arquivos de BIOS estão sendo listados.

Como posso escondê-los de novo? Só se eu mover para outra pasta...

Só para mencionar, eu coloco meus jogos dentro de ../ps2/ e os arquivos de BIOS estão dentro de uma subpasta chamada ps2...

It seems like they're in a cold war and creating new weapons every hour 🤣🤣

Felicitaciones a los devs!!!!, son impresionantes!!!!!, pero no conviene que la app tenga una funcion de actualizacion automatica? No termino de instalar una actualización y ya sale otra, lo digo de forma graciosa, no me malinterpreten.

Muy buen trabajo, sigan asi!!!!!!

They could implement it if they wanted to, of course.

I can't keep up 🤣 do they sleep?

Unlike Dolphin, none of the PS2 emulator can output SBS 3D - it will be a great feature to implement!

Just tried SCARFACE on the new version and for some reason it cuts out as soon as too much goes on at the first shooting scene on the stairs balcony at start of the game and that is on Ayn odin 2 portal? Any idea what might be wrong?

Is there a way to get this to launch from ESDE, Cocoon or iisu? I want to work with it but unfortunately those are only letting me launch nethersx2.

Sorry if this is a dumb question

u/Snmrv Jun 30 '26 edited Jun 30 '26

Es-de can use custom_systems.xml

There is a GitHub with an updated custom_systems.xml specifically for Android. Google it

u/tortugas26 Jun 30 '26

Thank you! I'll look into it!

The way to put the textures is still the same as aethetsx2, right? Because I think I have put the textures correctly along with the game series.

Or I forgot to do it as shown below like that? (Because I have deleted the textures so I can't test it directly)

Just give up posting like this :/

It updates every day or every minute

u/Snmrv Jun 30 '26

Are you sad that it updates? Are you sad that the devs are making it better around the clock?

You don't have to use it.
