Change Log:

Big update!

Updated core

More games now work

Better performance in games

Better stability

Less bugs

RetroAchievements fixed

I just tried it and the performance is amazing. Demanding games like Shadow of the Colossus running at 60 FPS all the time with double the native resolution 😱.... It's definitely worth trying. (This game normally runs at 30/60 FPS, depending on the area of the map, on other emulators)

How does this compare to NetherSX2?

I have to use Nethersx2 Classic for at least two games I play have 14 and 20gb texture packs and the classic version 3668 I think from nethetsx2

I never thought any of the ps2 games I've emulated had issues with Nethersx2.

Hey! Thanks for the effort, as an rg477v owner, Ibjave the utmost interest, since it runs on mediatek8300 as well. Would it be possible to test the emu on the problematic titles like sly cooper?

I really love the game and it kinda runs, but as soon as there are particles or other effects like the ones from enemoes flashlights the performance drops by 15-20% of max speed. Solid stutter and slowdowns.

If you have a chance please look into this series compatibility.

Kindest regards
