alternately we could make a 'consumer-toy' GL renderer that sacrifices accuracy in the name of betterer speeds (doing more aggressive polygon batching, etc)

I doubt it would be so much better as the renderer quite dependant on advanced OpenGL features like gl_FragDepth. Sacrificing even more accuracy would make the renderer even less robust, which makes it imho less viable as "default" option.

Also if we take the current GL renderer as a reference, at 1x the threaded sw rasteriser usually beats it.

You don't think OpenGL ES 3.2 is good enough for melonDS? It's pretty fast on Snapdragon devices, it's just Mali that it really runs like crap on.

was thinking of this

also, no idea how GLES maps to desktop GL. melonDS runs on GL 3.2, so it could be ported to GLES, I guess.

Apparently this build has been updated recently and it improved its speed by a good amount already, dunno why this thread got abandoned.

The unofficial Android port leaves out libslirp again like the Retroarch port (as far as i can see) even though its based on the latest melonDS codebase.
Seems like the only way to get WFC working for now is just using the official melonDS for now.

Great work so far on the Android Port!

Thanks @MAGNUM_PT.
I can't wait to see the WIP OpenGL/Vulkan renderer in the future.

Hi, anyone here using this on a Redmi Note 6 Pro or similar device?
Trying to play Final Fantasy Tactics Advance A2 Grimoire of the Rift but getting about 40 fps and wondering what I can do. Are there settings outside the default menu I can try fiddling with to get better speed? In a .cfg file or some such?
Any recommendations at all in general? I am drawing a blank after fiddling with what's there in the menu.

edit:
tf are points for lol. That took me by mild surprise.

Unfortunately, there's not much that can be done. There are no additional options that can be adjusted besides the ones provided in the Settings menu and the default values should provide the best performance. The only thing I can imagine that might improve performance is fiddling with the sound settings (increase latency or disable sound), but even then the gains would only be marginal (if there's any at all).
