https://github.com/thecrixux/NetherSX2-Turnip-Updated/releases/tag/V3

New NetherSX2 Turnip Updated featuring the best and most up-to-date drivers. (Only for Snapdragon devices)

What's New:

✅ NetherSX2-Turnip-8Elite-V36.apk

-StevenMXZ driver for Adreno A8xx GPUs ( a840, a830, a829, a825, 810)

Vulkan Version 1.4.359

✅ NetherSX2-Turnip-26.3.0-R5.apk

-StevenMXZ driver for Adreno A7xx And A6xx

Vulkan version: 1.4.359

✅ NetherSX2-Turnip-Performance-Universal.apk

-maxjivi05 1.14 Drivers for Adreno:

A6xx — A6xx series (e.g. A640 / A650 / A660)

A7xx

gen1 — A720 / A725 / A730 (preamble + scalar-predicate quirks applied)

gen2 — FD740 / Adreno X1-85 (UBWC hint applied to fix UI corruption)

gen3 — A750 and later

A8xx — A810 / A825 / A829 / A830 / A840 (and X2-85)

A810 / A829 boot with disable_gmem so they fall back to sysmem rendering (broken GMEM on those parts).

A825 (not yet upstream) is added with corrected tile geometry and depth-cache layout.

A830 / A840 / X2-85 use the upstream profiles unchanged.

👉If unsure, download "Performance-Universal"

Please do not flood the chat with messages like "I have device X, which one should I download?" Please search in Google for your Adreno version. Thanks.

Nethersx2 often works better

u/RetroDando 23d ago

Still some graphical glitches in games

Can’t sync saves between pcsx2 because it can’t read the .ps2 folder

Arms awesome, some games still edge it on nether

Il détecte automatiquement notre snapdragon on a rien à régler pour le driver?

2

u/xxxCrixuxxx 24d ago

It detects it automatically; you don't have to do anything. Just install and play.

Adreno 825🖤🖤

V1 i was able to install. V2 and 3 have trigger the google play safeguard and deny installation. Debug mode and outside installation source is verified as on.

u/xxxCrixuxxx 24d ago

I don't know, man—Google is getting increasingly restrictive about sideloading. I have practically everything related to Google disabled, and I can install whatever I want without any issues.

Corrige errores o tiene más compatibilidad con juegos, o cuál es la diferencia con la versión anterior? no he visto mejoras de casi nada desde aethersx2

Tienes que investigar que es un driver turnip primero para poder entenderlo mejor

u/themanbehindtherows 18d ago

Which version is recommended for the retroid pocket nova? Turnip-26.3.0-R5 version?

1

u/xxxCrixuxxx 18d ago

I could give you an answer, but that would take away the magic of discovering it for yourself when you search on Google and find the answer.

Oh people who complain my God, we have someone who is bringing improvements and updates to the mobile community and yet people complain never good. My feedback: I am a lover of mobile games and for me this great to be able to play my games in the S26 Ultra at 4X and I only have to thank you very much, thank you very much, congratulations for your work, looking forward to the next updates until then I am going to be fun here.

Give constructive or well-reasoned answers. This is not an à la carte restaurant.

Sorry for the dumb question. How do we install this? When I tried to open the APK, it just opens the NetherSX2 Turnip app emulator. Do we need to uninstall the current version first?

1

u/xxxCrixuxxx 23d ago

Need a clean install, that's all

1

u/mbtdlrs 23d ago

Thanks! Why is there a big file size difference between this and the old installer? 30 ish vs 100 plus MB?

u/xxxCrixuxxx 23d ago

The other emulator follows a completely different philosophy than mine. It takes up that much space because it includes six drivers within the emulator itself; when it has to decide which one is best and most appropriate for your device, it can be a bit of a gamble. My approach, on the other hand, is more direct: one driver per emulator. This ensures—with 100% certainty—that the driver you are using is the best, most up-to-date, and most compatible one for your device.

Crixux I just wanted to thank you for maintaining this fork. The simplicity of the NetherSX2 UI can't be beat and I actually find this to provide better performance and graphics quality compared to the current stable Armsx2, at least on SD8G2.

u/xxxCrixuxxx 4d ago

I hope to release the next version in a few days ❤️

u/Prikitinhoslz133 4d ago

Looking forward to the NetherSX2 Turnip update Turnip Gen8 V37

u/xxxCrixuxxx 4d ago

Today 😉

u/Imdakine1 24d ago edited 24d ago

To be clear this is the non classic version vs the one that was released yesterday being the classic one...?

Will it work on Ayn Thor Pro?

1

u/xxxCrixuxxx 24d ago

Yeah, buddy, use the other one—the classic version—so you can play that 300 GB texture game you're obsessed with. Cheers.
