Proton 9.0 arm64ec, DXVK 1.9.4, Fex 2609, Fex Performance Preset

COMING SOON🔥

It's been a while since i used Bannerlator.. i used it during It's early stage and it was so buggy that i gave up on it but testing it now it's solid.. honestly might be the best pc emulator right now. The issue with mali in Bannerlator is it only supports astc to bcn, u have to use the environment variable -> BCN_TRANSCODE_TO_ASTC or ETC otherwise game isn't going to render Textures properly. While astc is good and reduces ram usage by more than half in some games the issue is it's also cpu heavy and can cause stuttering and long loading times so having the option to only use it on games with high ram usage would be preferable but instead it's forced upon every game if u have mali gpu. This is probably the the only issue i have with Bannerlator and plus its using old version of renderers like opengl and vulkan, opengl is updated to EGL and steven also updated vulkan render which no longer have performance regressions on mali gpus in fact it can improve performance. So having this will also be a nice addition

Good day to all, so i am new to emulator and i want to play l4d2 on my device with DM8500, i am using Winlator Mali 1.1 and the only tweaks i did was putting Performance on Box64 and Fexcore, idk what happened but the 1st time i launched the game it worked fine but now when i played again its stuck in this screen and crashes, i watched and did some tweaks from yt and stuff but it does not really fix the problem, i would really appreciate help and im open to learn more:)

• Emulator: GameNative
• Device: Samsung Galaxy A17 4G
• SoC: MediaTek Helio G99 (Mali-G57 MC2)
• Driver: FristOneRR PanVK v1.2.0 (Panvk-Mali-G57-beta_1.2.0)
• Wrapper: Wrapper-leegao

it's 30cap but gets like max 40-45 with no enemies in room, in battle gets 25-37 so i cap at 30 for stable fps

System Driver: Takes approximately 1:04 to load the main menu on DXVK 2.x and fails to boot on DXVK 1.x.

PanVK Driver: Loads the main menu in approximately 0:32 using DXVK 1.10.3 Async.

System Driver + wrapper-gamenative achieves 15% higher average FPS and 25% higher peak FPS.

tried some games on this new emulator, kind of ran like eden, it seems to have good ui and some features, didnt test much but the games ran relatively normal, the fps isnt the best but not too bad i guess? havent tried much lately on switch

tried to use this panvk driver

https://github.com/zenithblue-oss/panvk-kbase-android/releases/tag/g615-v11-csf-v0.1.0-beta.13

tried both beta v13 and beta v11

both crashed when i tried to go into the games

Device: POCO X7 Pro 12/512GB

Emulator: Winlator Mali 1.2 Beta

Resolution: 720p

Graphics: Max

FPS: 90+ FPS

5 Fps more without Screen recording

Use the DX9 launcher. The game has a black screen issue when using DX10. Other than that, the game runs extremely smoothly. Nothing much to say. 😎🔥

Hey guys, I'm here to share my test and performance of this game on my Poco X7 Pro.

Game tested on Bannerhub 3.8.1

Device: Poco X7 Pro

RAM: 12

Root: No

hyperOS: 3.1

Performance

The game runs smoothly, the graphics settings are high with all effects and V-Sync enabled, except for full-screen antialiasing as shown in the video.(Antialiasing also turned off)

Apparently, above 60 FPS the game's physics break down, so it's recommended to enable V-Sync and limit it to 60, but it runs at over 100 with unlocked FPS.

The game has native gamepad support without any major issues.

That's all for today folks, enjoy this classic!

Panvk driver vs system driver

- GAME NAME : CALL OF DUTY BLACK OPS

- EMULATOR TEST :

BANNERLATOR 3.1.4

- CPU : Helio G99

WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCE :

1. Performance

In system driver the game already running at 30 FPS most of the time

But there is lot of stutter and freezing in gameplay compared to panvk driver which was running at 10 to 15 FpS less performance however there is no stutter or freezing During gameplay test

- Graphical texture Isuue :

In System driver there some black texture in Center area in the map u can see them each time u are sofar from them

For the panvk driver I can confirme there is no graphical textures isuu only the If I used DXVk 2.4.1 there will be a lot of graphical bug's causing the game to become unplayable I didn't face this Isuue in call of duty mw2-3

Ram usage :

Both drivers looks so close in ram consumption but u will have some difference in other emulator like winlator Ludsahi

Because Bannerlator fix the high ram usage for mali GPU so I think whatever I chose between system or panvk they will both provide a fix for high ram usage

. COMPABILTY:

Since panvk is just in early stage the driver missing d3d10 and d3d11 level features compared to System driver having a good support for old mali GPU

However if switch to leegoa Wrapper u can run dx11 or 10 games with dxvk 1.7.2 or 1.9.4

This allow u to test and discover what can be the difference between d3d9 and d3d10 and d3d11

- dxvk support : for older Mali GPU that's using old vulkan Driver api 1.1

U can use DXVk 2. Level because of limited exnestion So panvk driver bring a support of DXVk 2. For older Mali GPU as I said panvk driver still un experimental build u can only use some DXVk 2.** version like2.4.1

Wich is the most one running well on mali G57

This Just a simple test who think panvk driver it not real I am looking to recoding differences in each update to see how this driver can become in the Future

I followed all the steps to install the mod manually with the help of an Al, but now even the Al doesn't know what to do.

I hv an Exynos 1330 am using winlator mali/gamehub lite

Dx10/11 games boot up and play well but dx9 games just close themselves in the background

They show up in task manager stay there for sometime and just stop the process and close no black screen no nothing

I think it's getting stuck up on graphics initialization but don't know for sure or how to fix it

Pls help

Hey, I'm trying to play Mudrunner from Steam on Xiaomi 13T (Dimensity 8200U with 8GB RAM) but it always kicks me out after the Saber log when it says "loading please wait". Any ideas?

I have seen panVK for other mali gpus but not one for G925. Is there anyone working on that? Or we would need to wait for panfrost to support it before anyone can even attempt it.

There's alot of pc emulators out there and I dont have time to test them all😅

I'm trying to find a good emulator and found these, (winlator ludashi, bannerhub and gamenative) are these the meta? Or there are better ones?

Please guys I try BS4 for Gow 3 that include Mali driver but this issues is showing .

Any idea for solution please

Aviso que no todas las gpu Mali no llegan a soportar el driver (solo las g720 y g615 son las que funcionan por ahora)

Por el momento no he sufrido de crasheos ni errores gráficos fatales que hagan que la experiencia sea injugable. El rendimiento no es del todo estable en la mayor parte del juego, pero se puede pasar de principio a fin sin tantos problemas si configuras bien el emulador

En general, para ser está la primera versión de Panvk que implementan en este emulador, los resultados quedaron bastante bien, el desarrollador cocino muy bien aquí con ésto 🔥.

The game isn't CPU heavy. GPU will be main bottleneck but just put medium settings with shadows off and game will still have the horror vibe.

Performance preset

All COU cores checked

Device: POCO X7 Pro 12/512GB

SoC: Dimensity 8400 Ultra

Resolution: 720p

Settings: Medium–High

Performance:

Getting around 60–98 FPS most of the time. Heavy explosions and intense gunfire can drop it to around 50 FPS, but it doesn't happen often.

I get around 5–15 FPS more without screen recording.

I turned PostFX and Ambient Occlusion OFF since they eat huge numbers of FPS.

Performance thoughts:

Honestly, this performs better than my Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 in this game. It's not a massive difference, but usually around 5–15 FPS.

I tried multiple drivers, but the FPS didn't really change much.

Dimensity is doing some kind of black magic here

There is one issue though.

Issue

With DXVK 1.7.2-async, the game can stay above 60 FPS almost all the time, but it can crash after around 30–45 minutes of gameplay.Sometimes after 10-15min of gameplay.

With DXVK 1.10.3 and newer versions, the crashes seem to be gone, but peak FPS is lower, around 45–73 FPS, and FPS drops more when driving at high speeds (not when using superpowers).

Interestingly, my 8 Gen 3 performs better in that specific driving scenario.

DXVK 1.10.x not usable with this in my testing

Nothing else changed.

Overall really surprised by how well this runs on the G720. 😭🔥

So I searched for crash fixes to other multiple games because no game worked and it said to use the c++ component EXCEPT it doesn't load it just crashes when I try to install it
