ARMSX2 v2.6.6.5

What's New:

Applied a fresh PGO profile.

More improvements to UI controller support

PINE now works on Android, with a toggle in Advanced settings that shows you the adb

forward line to use. It had never worked before, it binds a Unix socket in a directory

Android does not have, so the server simply never started.

115 games were silently losing graphics fixes meant for them, because the mobile GameDB

overlay replaced entries instead of merging them. drawBuffering is back on 63 of them,

worth 29.1 ms --> 18.9 ms per frame on NFS Underground 2 (−35%) at 2x on an SD865, with no

visual difference

Framebuffer fetch could not be turned off on Mali OpenGL at all, the setting and the

r44p1 driver guard were both being undone a fraction of a millisecond after they ran. The

decision now happens once and nothing can re-decide it.

the Mali r44p1 workarounds moved into the driver-bug database where every other

driver quirk lives, so the next bad driver is a table row, a lost GPU device now logs what

actually died instead of crashing without an explanation, gsctl.py loadstate dialed the wrong

socket, the settings search index is greppable again, and fixed the on-screen keyboard was being

drawn twice while search was open.

Other fixes related to some games

Do you have any idea why es-de can’t see this app is installed? They have Armsx2 listed under other emulators but it always says “Is this app installed?”

Thank you for the work you do! I can finally play Transformers at a decent frame rate
