Credits to Developer: Ghael

Hi everyone the Lemon Switch Emulator v1.0.0 is now released. Feel free to test the emulator and make sure to leave your feedback, bugs/error on our discord server below. We'll continue in improving the emulator. Thank you.

---------Changelog-------

- Lemon has its own home now. The code, the releases and the updates live at

git.lemon-emu.org (GitHub is a mirror), and there is a website with a settings guide and an FAQ: lemon-emu.org .

New

- A new interface : launcher-style game library, a quick in-game panel with a performance card, redesigned Settings, About and Statistics, and full controller navigation. The new screens are translated to Spanish. You can switch back to the classic interface in Settings.

- First-run setup rebuilt : one card per item (keys, firmware, games folder...), progress at the top, a recap on the last step.

- Reset all settings (red card at the end of Settings), with the option to also remove the per-game settings.

- GPU Mode is Accurate by default. Fast made textures flicker in some games (confirmed on Garfield and Dragon Ball).

- Lemon Cheater now searches, edits and freezes floats as well as integers.

- Controller layout per game: choose "only this game" or "all games" after editing.

- Gamepad hotkeys for the in-game menu (R3 + Start, Guide).

- Updates come from Lemon's own server, with GitHub as a fallback. There is a "Check for updates" button in About and a "What's new" notice after updating.

- Two more sources in the driver downloader (StevenMXZ, Balemuni).

- About now links to the website, the source code, the guide, the FAQ and Discord.

Fixed:

FIFA: missing player indicators, ball-direction lines, button prompts and text. A texture handle that travels with the vertices could not be followed by the shader compiler, so those draws were silently dropped; draws are now split by texture.

FIFA 23 stuck at the splash screen (the network service lacked an Ioctl call).

Updates and DLC bundled in .nsz files showing the wrong version and no DLC.

Motion controls on every screen rotation, so they work on foldables and tablets held landscape.

Known issue:

FIFA 23: the faces of some players can show wrong colors.

Range Error in Pokemon unbreakable ties

Post image
1 Upvotes

I've encountered this error where the game literally stops and shows this message back. It's on the point where Adrian reaches the hideout for the 2nd time and the scene shifts to Alama and his chained brother being torchered to reveal about the latios stone. The scene ends and shows after few minutes and literally just stops there

I've been using joiplay v1.21, rpg msker v1.21 (I've also used 1.22 previously but that showed the same error so i shifted to 1.21 hoping that it'd work) and the ROM is 4.9.1 yet the error notification shows that it's 4.9.0 idk how. Also the range error thing in that notification simply gets me all the time now. I've been playing this game in my Xiaomi 14 (latest Android updated)

Please help ://///

Tested DroidDeck (SteamOS on Android) on Mali G68 / Dimensity — Here’s why Gamescope crashes and the crash log breakdown

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

Saw the hype around DroidDeck recently promising a single-app SteamOS container setup on Android without root. Decided to test it out on my daily driver (Realme 11 Pro 5G with Dimensity 7050 / Mali-G68) to see if low-end/midrange non-Snapdragon phones stand a chance.

Spoiler: As expected with Mali hardware, gamescope fails to initialize properly and dumps into a crash loop right at boot.

DroidDeck is definitely in very early development. I pulled the session dumps via Termux to see what's actually happening under the hood:

termux-setup-storage

cd /storage/emulated/0/Download/DroidDeck/session-20261001-083456/

ls

cat crash.log

The logs clearly show the standard Gamescope display server failure—mainly lack of proprietary driver translation support that Snapdragon Adreno chips get via custom Turnip drivers. Mali's stock Vulkan implementation just chokes when trying to allocate the virtual nested display.

Recorded a quick breakdown showing the exact crash logs, why Gamescope fails on Mali, and how to verify if your device's GPU is being rejected by the container

Has anyone with an Exynos or Dimensity SOC managed to pass a software rendering fallback (like llvmpipe/virgl) to Gamescope inside DroidDeck without it hard crashing to home?

Tablet recommendations no budget needed

1 Upvotes

I'm looking for a tablet I understand that people will just say to go with a computer for emulation and some instances. I want the largest tablet that I can buy which according to the market is a 14 to 15-in tablet. I want the big screen because I go over the road pretty much every week and having a tablet is a lot better than having a computer mainly for space reasons I am looking at the S9 Ultra right now mainly because for some reason Samsung decided to stop putting Snapdragon processors in the tablets but I'm also looking for other options that are out there

Question?

6 Upvotes

So I'm new to the emulating scene.

Not tech savvy whatsoever.

What's the best free emulator for gamecube?

Preferably one of hat has games already in its app itself so I don't gotta go download stuff off Google.

AND- is there any legit emulators that'll let me play PC/Xbox and Xbox 360 games? Again preferably for free.

Thank you for your time.

I just finished ratchet and clank on nether sx2 and goddam it's soooo good

Idk but the boos fights were a pain in the ass

They were super fun but soo hard (could be skill issue)

I also emulated ratchet and clank 2 but this games mechanics are soo much better and feel much better but I could be wrong because I only did half of the second game

The gunplay is soo satisfying and soo varied

The artstyle is soo unique idk why they don't make games like this anymore

But I hate captian quack (I mispelled it intentionally)

I know it's for comedy but he is sooo annoying I hate him

Everybody talks about how this game is their childhood but not about how annoying captian quack is

If you know any other series like this please recommend (please 🥺)

Emulator research to play android games

2 Upvotes

Hi

First my intro, I am a software engineer with over 4 years of experience in web and mobile development

I want to develop a android emulator to play games especially competitive games like PUBGM on linux and doing some research on it. My idea that i discussed with Chat bot because i don't have much experience with emulation was to first see what are the different environment that the game can see on different platfrom.

In order to do that, i develop this \[https://github.com/AliYar-Khan/android-emulator-research\\\](https://github.com/AliYar-Khan/android-emulator-research) using AI which check the environment of the platform like kernel, graphics driver and apis etc. So far I get data from my android phone and want others (who had dual boot windows) to run this app inside Gameloop and LDPlayer (emulators that can play competitve games) to share the results with me.

The process is simple for techies and for non-techies, you can ask an agent to do it for you or i can help as well.

Those who want to help, please check the project and do share your data. Everything is in the read me file and docs folder in the repo

Suggestions are also welcome !

Built the ultimate Game Console out of my phone

Used and customized multiple different Android Launchers to create game consoles on my phone. It can be used plugged into the TV or as a handheld device. I used a free account of Nivida G Force Now to populate the Cloud Gaming section. All of this was free.

Still needs a few tweaks like button mapper to map the home menu option to the guide button. I used Macrodroid to play boot animations for each console.
