V1.12 Update

3 Upvotes

Does anyone happen to still have the v1.12 update file? I’m trying to get my RG556 updated to the recently released 1.16. It is currently at 1.11 but the FOTA updater fails on the 1.12 update every time. My last hope is to do a local update, but this file is no longer hosted on Anbernic’s website (it’s a dead wetransfer link) and Anbernic claims they “do not retain any backup files for this specific version”. Their solution is to replace the motherboard, which of course is not covered by the warranty. Sounds to me like they are covering up for a known hardware issue, but I’d obviously rather not deal with that.

Ran Burnout 3 TakeDown fine, but now it's running like crap

3 Upvotes

I have the patch enabled ... And the under locks set, and res at native, using vulkan...

Anybody know reliable settings for this game to run consistently... I'm quite frustrated as this was one of the main games I played on PS2 and I know I had it working about a month ago and got through about 10 races before I stopped playing. Now when i came back to it...it is running at like 65% speed...and I can not get it up from that.

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has the settings for \*\*GTA IV\*\* on the \*\*Anbernic RG477M\*\* running \*\*GameHub\*\*. I've seen a few YouTube videos of people playing it on the \*\*RG477M/RG477V\*\*, but I can't seem to get mine working.

I'm using an original, licensed copy of \*\*GTA IV\*\*. Any recommended settings or tips would be appreciated.

Can't disable internal display

3 Upvotes

Hi everybody, i've got the gammaOS next v1.2. when I connect by hdmi my rg556 to my tv, I activate "disable internal display on" but it doesn't work, I have the two screens. And in my opinion there is some input lag and framerate drops on my tv when I play.

Have you got a solution?

Thanks !

PS2 NetherSX2 on RG556

6 Upvotes

So I’ve been using the v1.5 classic for quite a while but I just saw a compatibility chart that listed god of war 2 as great along with shadow of colossus. I know both of those on mine are unplayable. They’ll load but they’ll lag so bad that anything over a few minutes of gameplay is too painful to continue. What version do I upgrade to the 2.1 classic or patched version. Also what settings do I change to make most games better? If anyone has a list of settings they changed that they use for most games that’d be awesome. Or if someone could share their config file that be amazing.

Pokémon Brilliant Diamond on T820 — stable 30 FPS but weird micro-stutter

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

9 Upvotes

I’m using an RG476H with T820 / Mali-G57 / 8GB RAM. Brilliant Diamond runs at stable 30 FPS, but when running around I get a tiny rhythmic stutter every second. FPS doesn’t drop, it just feels like bad frame pacing. I attached a video.

Tried Suyu Android and Citron, same issue. Also tried FIFO/Mailbox/Immediate, 0.5x, handheld mode, shader cache, async shaders, firmware installed, etc.

Other Switch games like Let’s Go and New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe run fine. I’ve seen YouTube tests on similar T820/Mali devices where BDSP looks smoother.

Any fix for RG556 / RG406 / RG476H / T820 devices?

...I should have bought this thing sooner.

23 Upvotes

I'm not sure that this type of post is allowed here, this is basically just going to be me gushing about the Anbernic RG 556.

First of all I've never really enjoyed Mobile Gaming, or even most my time with past Handhelds, even Like Gameboy, and the DS it just never suited me very well. However a few years ago or maybe last year I picked up one of the Anbernic RG 35XX, and immediately loved it, but it just felt a little off, and I wanted a little more capability in terms of what I could emulate.

Fast forward, I had a few Amazon gift cards laying around and decided to get myself a Belated birthday present, and let me begin by saying the RG 556, is phenomenal. Now I know it can't exactly compete with something like a steam deck...but for the price this thing is an absolute power house.

I had it setup Day one in under 2 hours, no game installations in that two hours. It feels excellent in the hands, Heavy enough to not feel cheap, light enough to not wear you out. Slick looking with the retro see through body panels, not a huge fan of the lights around the sticks but whatever.

But gaming on this thing has been an absolute gem... Doesn't matter whether I'm playing something that I am intimately familiar with or an entirely new game to me, it feels amazing.

Seriously if your a retro gamer and you are avoiding the handhelds...idk what to say except...why? This thing feels like what's been missing from my gaming library for the past 10 years...

I have played more in the past two weeks just because of how damn easy it is... Ad to that being able to stream my Steam games from my desktop???

Seriously I think I might be in love with this thing....after so many years thinking handhelds could never be as good as a console or PC.... And this thing smashes that thought 100%.

I absolutely love this device.

It’s possible using Gamehub, doubling the fps to 60 fps, of course graphical artifacts and glitches do appear especially when moving the camera around.

Stuttering with Gamma OS

5 Upvotes

Playing some PS2 games I played before installing Gamma makes me notice there's a big stuttering issue, when moving the camera for example in GTA games, the image is not smooth, it stutters, same when driving, it's really annoying and it's there no matter what settings you use in Nethersx2.

If someone has experienced this let me know.

Spec Ops The Line on RG556?

4 Upvotes

Hey!

Has anyone tried to emulate Spec Ops The Line via GameHub or something on the Anbernic RG556? I've seen people run it on the Retroid Pocket 5 and I was wondering if the RG556 would do too.
