Recording note: FPS dips slightly while recording this video. Without recording, this test runs at a stable 60 FPS, with only occasional drops.
I’m releasing BOTWRecompAndroid 0.2.2 beta, and the biggest addition is Native Mode. The game’s ARM64 code now runs directly on the phone’s CPU, so this mode skips the lengthy game-code compilation during setup. You can choose it when adding your game files, or switch to it later if you already set up the recompiled mode.
This update also adds an experimental 60 FPS option for in-engine cutscenes and fixes the white water and Link sinking into the ground while standing still.
Native Mode is still experimental. I’ve tested it with game versions 1.0.0 and 1.9.0, including saves and restarts; 1.6.0 and 1.8.2 still need testing in this mode. Expect bugs and performance differences across devices. The video was recorded on a POCO F7 Ultra with an Adreno 830 and a Turnip driver.
No game files are included. You’ll need your own legally obtained game dump. Download and details: BOTWRecompAndroid releases. If you encounter a problem, please open an issue and attach a log.
