We ripped out a lot of old code and redesigned how we display the final image so that it will work properly with VSync and actually improved performance a bit with it too!
CITRA EMULATOR ANDROID FOR ANDROID
In addition to all those, we worked on other things for Android that we decided we could bring to Citra Desktop before we release Android It’s hard to play on a tiny mobile screen without physical buttons, so we added Gamepad Support.We added work-in-progress multi-core support to run GPU emulation on another core, just like Dolphin’s dual core mode or yuzu’s async gpu option. Mobile CPUs aren’t near as powerful as a desktop CPUs, so we need to take advantage of multiple cores.This is a very solid FPS improvement across the board for all games. As a second general improvement to the CPU JIT we just wrote, we changed how the JIT accesses memory using a technique known as fastmem, which allows this new JIT to directly access memory.

This has hugely improved performance, and special thanks to Sachin-v for his hard work on this! While the 3DS also uses ARM, there’s some complications that arise when you try to run an unmodified 3DS game on an Android device, so we recompile the game on the fly with our new ARM64 backend for Dynarmic, Citra’s Just-in-Time (JIT) CPU compiler.

It’s no secret that we have been hard at work on the Android port and we are just as excited about it as you are! While work has slowed a little bit around the Holidays, we’ve actually made great progress in 2019, and we are still on track for a release in early 2020.Īs a sneak peak, here’s some of the work we’ve already done for Android
CITRA EMULATOR ANDROID UPDATE
As 2019 comes to a close – I’m sure that many of our fans are excited for an update about Citra Android development.
