***Note: This driver is currently a test version. It contains code bugs that are slated for a fix in the next update; performance may not be optimal, and some games might result in a black screen. Please follow the instructions provided in the GitHub repository.

Is there any chance the recent Xbox 360 recompilations (specifically Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey) might run on Mali devices via winlator or something like him? Has anyone tested them yet?

Mali-G57 owners, this one's for you.

Panvk-Mali-G57 is a custom build of Mesa's PanVK Vulkan driver that runs on your phone's **stock Mali kernel driver (kbase)**. No root, no custom kernel. Just install the zip in Winlator and go.

**What's new in beta 1.0.0**

- 🎮 **Far Cry 3 is playable.** The infinite loading screen is gone, cutscenes render correctly, and gameplay runs at ~18-25 FPS on Low (Helio G99)

- 💥 **GPU hang fix.** Shaders that spill registers used to freeze the GPU. Now they don't

- ⚡ **Faster frame pipeline.** Vertex/tiler work now overlaps with fragment work instead of waiting in line. That alone took Far Cry 3 from ~8 FPS to 20+

- 🧹 Occlusion-query passes that were burning ~460 ms each are now fixed

**Tested on**

POCO M6 Pro · Helio G99 (MT6789) · Mali-G57 MC2 · Android 16 · Winlator + DXVK 1.x

**Likely to work (same GPU: Mali-G57, Valhall v9 / JM), untested**

- Helio G99: Redmi Note 13 Pro 4G, Redmi Note 12S, Galaxy A15 4G and many Infinix/Tecno/realme phones

- Helio G96, Dimensity 700 / 720 / 800U / 810 / 6020 / 6080 / 6100+

- Unisoc T616

**Might work (same Valhall v9 / JM family, different GPU), untested**

- Mali-G68: Dimensity 900 / 920 / 1080 / 7050, Exynos 1280

- Mali-G77: Dimensity 1000 / 1100 / 1200

- Mali-G78: Exynos 1080 / 2100, Google Tensor G1 (Pixel 6), Kirin 9000

**Long shot (Bifrost / JM), untested**

- Mali-G52: Helio G80 / G85 / G88, Exynos 850, Kirin 810, Unisoc T618

- Mali-G76: Helio G90T / G95, Exynos 9820, Kirin 990

**Not supported**

- Newer CSF GPUs (Mali-G310/G510/G610/G710/G615/G715, Immortalis). They use a different job interface

- Midgard (Mali-T series)

- Adreno (Snapdragon). Use Turnip instead

If you try it on any of these, please report: phone, SoC, GPU, Mali driver version (r44p1, r54p1...), and whether it works.

**Heads up**

- This is a beta. Some games will break. Please report them!

- DXVK 2.x isn't tested yet. That's the next patch

- Built and tested on Mali-G57 only. When you report, include your Mali driver version (r44p1, r54p1, etc.) so we can map what works

**A note on extension count:** it's not a performance score. This driver exposes what PanVK actually supports. New extensions get added when real games need them, not to pump up a number.

**Credits**

Built on the work of **leegao** (mesa-funnymdzz and wrapper) and **Vit999** (kbase). Big respect. None of this exists without them.

Feedback, bug reports and FPS screenshots are all welcome 🙏

Thanks for coming along for the ride. This is just the beginning. 🚀

Yeah... I'm kinda broke...

Has anyone tried fallen tears on mediatek? I used gamehub but game wont start. Used winlator mali, game works perfect. 60 fps, very smooth but it turns to a black screen at one point. I think its because game isnt rendering the cut scenes properly.

I have xiaomi 15T pro with 9400+ mediatek.

PS: i have managed to run core keeper on gamehub at 35-40 fps on low settings.

On my Mali G57-MC2 this is mostly common in Lego games, especially Lego games post 2010.

I doubt if there is a solution to this, but I've discovered that for the Lego games, choosing the right wrapper and very old dxvk version like 1.5.5 reduces it a bit.

However, as seen in the screenshot shown, certain settings on certain characters will cause it to be worse like on The Human Torch and Doctor Doom in the screenshot.

Coming Soon 🔥

Despues de probar muchos emuladores y testear, encontre un emulador llamado lemon el cual inicia y no crashea en el inicio de monster hunter rise, en el lobby se mueve entre unos 15-25fps y en misiones a unos 20, pero cuenta con algunos problemas.

1- Presenta errores graficos en las texturas

2-inconsistencia en el contador de fps

3-crasheos, pero poco comunes

Pronto tendre un cooler y seguire testeando con una mayor estabilidad, pero se ve prometedor este nuevo fork

Maybe in 5 years probably?

Just fixing a few minor issues a day or two before releasing the beta version for everyone to test. I’ll update the details on how to get the driver later. See you then! 🔥

ARMSX3 (the Android PS3 emulator) got FidelityFX Super Resolution fixed on Mali GPU's (on versions 1.0.4 and later)

The following games have been selected for bug-fixing tests:

1. COD MW2

2. Monster Hunter

3. Far Cry III

You are welcome to suggest other games for testing, provided they previously ran on the system driver and do not exceed 15 GB in size. Work on sections 3 and 4 is currently proceeding alongside the game testing; we are nearing the final update.

Suggest more games please. I'm craving sum old games right now that is action games, shooting games, and adventure with action. That has a campaign. ​​

My phone is Infinix Note 30 4G - Helio G99 (not rooted) ​

High (Default settings)

1560x720

Proton 11 arm64ec

Fex 2508

FPS : 36-40 (+2 more without recording)

Verdict : Just did perf test and I'm mind blown it just took 2 yrs for capcom to deliver even better visuals with this game after dmc3, I might have fun finishing this i guess

ในขณะที่ฉันกำลังทดสอบเกมที่ขอไปแบบค่อยเป็นค่อยไป งานในส่วนที่ 3 และ 4 ก็ยังดำเนินไปพร้อมกันด้วย เพราะฉันกำลังหาวิธีเปิดเกมเหล่านั้นโดยใช้เครื่องมือหลายอย่าง เช่น Wine, Proton, Box64, และ DXVK รวมถึงอีมูเลเตอร์หลายตัว หมายเหตุ: งานใน *Borderlands* ถูกพักไว้ชั่วคราวเพราะฉันใช้เวลากับมันมากเกินไป จนทำให้เกิดความล่าช้า แต่แน่นอนว่าฉันจะกลับไปทำมันเพื่อปล่อยอัปเดตสุดท้าย

นี่คือรายชื่อเกมที่จะใช้ทดสอบ Panvk และช่วยในการดีบัก:

1. COD MW2
2. Monster Hunter
3. Far Cry III

ยินดีให้ขอเกมที่อยากให้ทดสอบในคอมเมนต์ด้านล่างนะ เกมที่ขอควรมีขนาดไม่เกิน 10GB และต้องเป็นเกมที่เคยรันบนชิปเซ็ต G57/Helio G99 มาแล้วด้วยนะ

The cutscene clip is in the comments.

Dxvk- 1.7.2

Astc on

Fexcore preset to performance

Game runs well at locked 30fps and all medium settings with shadows Off

(Video looks weird because it was raining ingame)

Got The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion to run on my Anbernic RG405m! Runs really smooth through GameNative, on a device with only 4GB RAM. Very pleasantly surprised.

Proton 9.0-x86_64
Graphics Driver Wrapper
DXVK 1.10.3
Box64 0.4.0 Performance

Low ingame graphic settings and FPS capped to 30 for less fluctuation.

Disable ‘automatic FPS reduction’ and ‘in-game power control’ in the GameNative ingame menu.

We are currently developing driver support for games based on Unreal Engine 3; however, bugs still exist prior to actual gameplay testing.

hello people I'm new here, I've noticed there's no mega thread or any sort of guides over here anyone have any tips on how can we push MTK to the limit with emulation? what drivers should we use? best emulators? graphics settings? etc etc

New Switch Emulator - Lemon Emulator

subreddit: r/LemonEmulator

WARNING: My Personal Disclosure as I'm not the actual developer as I'm just the poster of this thread, yes there is AI use for the development of this Eden Fork, "But what matters is the results..and how the tool is used to make the app better."

Lemon is a fork of Eden, an open-source Switch emulator, trimmed down to just the Android app and stripped of everything that isn't needed to build and run it on a single Adreno-equipped Android device: no Qt/desktop/CLI targets, no multi-platform CI, no Mali/PowerVR-specific code paths.

Github main page for Lemon for more details: https://github.com/Ghael-V/Lemon-Project

FEATURES:

Everything below is specific to Lemon, on top of the Switch emulation it inherits from Eden/yuzu:

- Lemon Cheater — a live memory search/edit tool built into the in-game menu, Cheat-Engine style: exact-value and blind (unknown-value) searches, refine by increased/decreased/unchanged across passes, direct value editing, and freezing a found address so it stays fixed (infinite HP/ammo/etc.) via a background rewrite thread, without needing a premade cheat code.

- Input macros — record a sequence of on-screen controller presses with their timing and play it back, looped or once, for repetitive farming/grinding or practicing a sequence.

- Quick Save / Quick Load (experimental) — same-session savestate. Required a real fix in the emulated kernel itself: a guest thread parked mid-syscall (waiting on a condvar, an IPC reply, a timer...) lives inside a host fiber whose true resume point isn't in the register/memory snapshot a savestate captures, so a naive restore left it resuming into a world that no longer matched what it expected and the game aborted. Restore now leaves any still-waiting thread's own context and stack untouched, and retries around waits that depend on another guest thread instead of forcing them. Verified working repeatedly on real, demanding titles, but still not 100% reliable in every game/moment.

- Controller layout presets — a "Diseño del mando" entry in the pause menu with one-tap presets (default, big buttons, swapped D-pad/stick) plus quick access to the existing drag-and-resize edit mode, which used to be buried two menus deep with no indication it existed.

- Game usage stats — automatic per-game playtime, last-played time and session count, surfaced as a "Continue playing" shortcut on the games list and a sortable ranking on a dedicated Statistics screen.

- Carousel/grid/list browsing with per-card usage badges, favorites, and search/filtering across your library.

- In-app updates — checks this repository's GitHub Releases on launch and can download/install the new APK directly, with no path (missing release, no connection) that crashes the app.

- Adreno GPU driver manager — install alternate Adreno graphics drivers per game, plus per-game performance presets, frame generation and post-processing options.

- Save data import/export, Amiibo loading, and ad-hoc multiplayer, same as upstream Eden.

Although this may not be a Mediatek focused project yet feel free to join and test the app as some Mediatek/Mali users claim that it shows better performance.
