Thank you very much, dear Nagaa! NetherSX2_nx also performs amazingly well!

I wanted to make the same request I mentioned for DrasticDS_nx: would it be possible for standard forwarders that pass the ROM to the emulator to work the same way they currently do with your Dolphin port and with RetroArch?

With forwarders created through https://nsp-forwarder.n8.io/, NetherSX2_nx currently opens the game selection screen instead of launching the selected PS2 game directly.

Could NetherSX2_nx accept the ROM/game path directly through argv, as Dolphin does?

Many thanks in advance!

Best regards
 
NetherSX2 - Nintendo Switch port

This is a wrapper/port of the Android version of NetherSX2.
It loads the original Android emulator core, patches it and runs it.
It's basically as if we emulate a minimalist Android environment in which we natively run the original Android binary as is.

Features​

  • Cover art — auto-download from SteamGridDB (one game or the whole library)
  • Region flags (US / EU / JP) and a sortable library
  • Per-game settings — override any option per title; rename and delete games
  • Full controller remapping, stick config, deadzone, and vibration
  • Resolution scaling up to 6× (4K), aspect ratio, widescreen / no-interlace patches,
    shade boost, CRT/TV shaders, and the full graphics / enhancement / audio option set
  • Experimental network adapter (DEV9 / Sockets) — off by default, opt-in in Settings → Network

Renderers​

Choose in Settings → Graphics → Renderer:
  • Vulkan (NVK) — recommended; best compatibility and performance in most games
  • OpenGL — alternative if a game misbehaves under Vulkan

Cores​

Choose in Settings → Emulation / System → Core version:
  • Patched (4248) — The most recent one
  • Classic (3668) — an older build; Can get better performance on less powerful devices

Silent hill 2 runs fantastic but use the older legacy core 3668 core for full performance with EE cycle skip off and EE cycle rate at 100%

You need a OC between 1750-2093mhz and GPu is fine between 3-400+mhz and ram 1600mhz.
