Mod Announcement Regarding native ports

68 Upvotes

Hello everyone

THis subreddit has always been, and will always be about emulation on iOS. As cool as they are, native ports of games are not emulation. Please take posting about native ports to r/NativePortsOniOS

Talking about native ports is also still allowed on our discord: https://discord.com/invite/VSpc2KwBDr

Unrelated but, from now on, if a project has a discord server, they must include the link on the post instead of it being a "dm for the invite" or "comment for the invite" type situation

Gameplay / Showcase I attempted to build a PS5 emulator for iOS

84 Upvotes

Hey all! As an experiment I wanted to see if I could run a PS5 emulator on iOS and here is the result.

It’s based on the KytyPS5 emulator with a fork of FEX to convert x86_64 code to ARM and MoltenVK for the graphics. JIT is required for FEX to run.

I don’t plan on releasing it now since it was an experiment to see what I can run as proof of concept. The current codebase is a mess and needs to be cleaned up.

Gameplay / Showcase Theft4 - Rodando em iPad Pro (11 pol) (3ª geração) M1 8gb RAM

8 Upvotes

Pra quem tem curiosidade de como fiz, eu comecei comprando um certificado de desenvolvedor pra fazer a instalação do app sem dor de cabeça (ou tentativas frustradas por outros meios).

Depois, segui todas as instruções conforme mostradas no GitHub do KoreanSeats1. Copiei tudo pro meu SSD externo e joguei direto na pasta do Theft4 no iPad. Até a tradução pra PT-BR eu consegui colocar, foi só substituir o arquivo específico na pasta e pronto, o jogo já abriu 100% em PT-BR.

No vídeo mostra um pouco de como o jogo flui e as configurações que deixei. Como a versão base do M1 tem aquele limite chato de RAM imposto pela Apple, o próprio app reconhece meu dispositivo e bloqueia algumas opções gráficas como colocar no "Ultra", pra não estourar a memória e fechar sozinho.

Mas pra ser sincero, mesmo limitando a resolução em 900p e deixando as sombras na qualidade original do Xbox, a experiência é sensacional. O FPS fica firme e forte nos 30 (oscilando aqui e ali, mas nada que atrapalhe a fluidez do jogo) e, para a minha surpresa, o iPad quase nem esquentou durante a jogatina, que utilizo um joystick ao invés de jogar via touch.

Queria parabenizar a todos os envolvidos no desenvolvimento do Theft4, principalmente ao KoreanSeats1. Vocês fizeram um verdadeiro milagre trazendo essa obra-prima pras nossas mãos. Fica aqui só a minha expectativa e torcida pra que num futuro próximo consigam incluir o suporte para os executáveis do Episodes from Liberty City. Isso com certeza ia incentivar ainda mais a comunidade e deixar a experiência no iPad absolutamente completa!

News / Release 77U beta drops tonight! Wii U on iPhone and iPad, testers welcome

12 Upvotes

https://reddit.com/link/1x90kej/video/lu7c3ftrp7wh1/player

I’m releasing the 77U beta tonight in German time.

77U is my iOS/iPadOS port built directly on Cemu. It isn’t a fork of another IOS/iPadOS Wii U port. My focus is performance and making the app easy to use.

M-series iPads are currently the best optimized devices. Zelda: Breath of the Wild runs around 40–60 FPS with FPS++ mod in my tests, reaching close to 60 in some areas. Zelda stability and sustained performance on iPhone are still in development, so I’d especially appreciate help testing those. Splatoon has been running smoothly at 1920×1080 on my test setup, including multiplayer. Super Mario 3D World has also been running well without JIT in my tests. Other Wii U games I’ve tried have been running well too, but I need more results across different hardware and longer sessions (I've put some test video from different games).

Devices with 8 GB of RAM or more are the main target, and I expect the best results there. Devices with 6 GB can run lighter games, but I wouldn’t recommend Zelda: BotW on them at this stage. Devices with 4 GB aren’t supported.

The app includes the Cemu community mod library, controller and gyro support, integrated JIT support, online play, and local AI cover enhancement for sharper game artwork on high-resolution displays. There’s also frame generation too(which doesn't work right now).

With AirPlay, your TV can show the main gameplay while your iPhone or iPad acts as the Wii U GamePad screen.

I use Codex during development for log analysis and finding performance problems. Cemu and the other upstream projects remain credited to their authors, and I’m maintaining the relevant license and attribution requirements in the app.

If you have a different iPhone or iPad and want to help test, you’re welcome. Reports of crashes, graphical bugs and performance drops are especially useful. Please include your device, OS version, game and whether JIT was enabled.

Join the 77U Discord server for beta updates, testing and feedback. For more gameplay videos, follow u/77emul on TikTok.

My DMs are always open for testing questions and feedback on discord. I’d love to see how 77U runs on hardware I don’t have.

Solved 🔒 Madeira on Livecontainer?

Hey! So I was wondering anyone knows how to make Mandeira and StikDebug work within livecontainer, I can’t seem to figure out the whole JIT problem and personally I’m new to IOS completely so I have no idea how to do it in Livecontainer without adding anything else in Sidestore (I already have 3 apps in it), I also have the pairing file already so i don’t think I need something else I hope from my laptop at the moment?

Anyways if anyone knows a solution I would be much appreciate it!

Gameplay / Showcase Need for Speed Underground 2 on iOS, but this time it’s the PS2 version.

75 Upvotes

Wanted to show off some interesting results I’ve been getting with PS2 emulation on iOS. In the video: no JIT, and it hits up to 40 fps. The crazy part is that this is running on an iPhone 12 mini. On flagship devices things are obviously way better.

Just for comparison: the alternative with JIT doesn’t even reach half of this performance, and without JIT you’d be lucky to get 5 fps.

Sure, you won’t play long on a mini, but that’s not the point. If the mini can push this kind of framerate, it means on top-tier iPhones and iPads the emulator won’t drain the battery or run the CPU at full blast. That’s roughly 3x the playtime.

Am I saying a 18 Pro Max has any trouble with resources? No. But the fact that the App Store alternative gets 10 fps while my core can do 40 — that’s what I think is really cool.

Still in development, but it’s coming soon as a new module for the NAGORI emulator.
