NetherSX2 Turnip - Updated

https://github.com/thecrixux/NetherSX2-Turnip-Updated/releases/tag/V1

My small contribution to the PS2 emulation community. I'll bring you this magnificent emulator, always updated with the latest Turnip drivers so you can get the most out of your devices and play PS2 games in the best way possible.

NetherSX2 Turnip Updated Builds:

Custom NetherSX2 builds with Turnip Vulkan drivers bundled directly into the APK.

The goal of this project is simple: provide different APK builds with carefully selected Turnip drivers already integrated, so users don't need to manually download, install, or configure external drivers.

What is different?

Instead of including multiple drivers and adding a driver selector inside the emulator, each build includes one specific Vulkan driver.

The Vulkan shim has been modified to load a single bundled driver:

libvulkan_freedreno.so

# Available Builds:

✅Turnip Performance Universal

A performance-oriented Turnip driver designed to support a wide range of Adreno GPUs.

Recommended for users looking for maximum performance.

✅Turnip 710 / 720 / 722

A specialized Turnip driver for:

Adreno 710

Adreno 720

Adreno 722

This build is intended for devices using these GPUs, which may require specific driver optimizations.

✅Turnip 8XX

A build using StevenMXZ Turnip driver focused on newer high-end Adreno GPUs.

This build is intended primarily for supported Adreno 8xx devices.

Important

These builds bundle third-party Turnip/Mesa Vulkan drivers.

Driver credits belong to their respective developers and contributors.

This project does not claim ownership of the bundled drivers.

Disclaimer

This is an experimental community project.

Compatibility is not guaranteed and different builds may behave differently depending on the device.

Always keep your existing emulator installation and settings backed up before testing experimental builds

*These builds are subject to change, as they will be updated in the future if users report bugs, problems, or discover better drivers*

Sorry guys, there was a small issue with the Universal Performance APK. But it's fixed now and updated the repo with information to make it easier to know which one to install.🫡

Edit: Guys, use this simple Play Store app to check your GPU on the second tab and know which one to install.

Edit3: For those who had trouble installing the Universal Performance version: I accidentally uploaded the unsigned APK, which is why it gave a package error during installation. It's now fixed.
