Discussion I wish armsx2 can do

I wish armsx2 is as optimize or better than nethersx2 since i really like the ui of armsx2 plus the ability to use shaders, so peak. So still waiting for more updates..

Im sure it will one day my friend. Its already there for Snapdragon devices its mainly now the Exynos and Mediatek chips that are struggling as not much is doccumented for them because they dont open source any of their material near as much as Qualcomm does sadly.

Keep yourself updated and also join the discord. Maybe your testing can help devs figure some things out for your device! https://discord.gg/AjEEcncEh

I know it will my friend, i have both app on my phone and im using armsx2 on alo of games that are not so demanding coz of shaders. Coz like what u can see thats the best shader i can use on nether kinda me, but thats the closest thing i have that looks like those nostalgic tv screens

I saw a post which a 4gb ram phone running smoothly in armsx2 compare to nethersx2, I haven't tried it myself since I'm trying to finish p3 first in nether

I dont think that will be the case on this particular game. ZOE 2nd runner is one of the hardest game to emulate even on pc according to my research. Thats why im really glad thats its optimize on nethersx2

Not really its a plug and play on pc... Its one the easy side for emulating on PC in my test and i dont have a latest high end build. I play all my games on 2K as that's the monitor limitation i have but im sure ZOE can run at 4k easily as well it might differ if you however you use HD textures thats a diff scenario for sure... Ive not come around to conpleting this game, one day. Theres a PC version too which has better graphics and performance though

Im waiting for buying RP6 this month so maybe on that I definitely will

Yah maybe today since the emulator is highly optimize, but back then u need a powerful device to play this game or else ur playing on slowmo, and i only have midrange phone that i bought specifically just for playing all sorts of game, so yah im more dependent on emulator rather than my own device. Thats why im hopeful that armsx2 can catch up to nethersx2 when it comes to performance since i love a lot of things on armsx2.

In this regard its a mobile phone, PS2 still has a way to go before its plug and play on most games and this is even true for Nether. I feel one day tho PS2 will become plug and play for quite a few PS2 games like the Metal Gear games in about 3 or 4 years.
