Miyoo flip v2

Just got it yesterday, its my first handheld whatsoever. Always wanted a gameboy when i was little, but never could have it.

Memory card crapped out of the box, luckly i had one at home so i installed MinUi and i love it. Its so portable, cant even see it in my pocket. I couldnt be happier.

I also ordered Anbernic RG40XXV for my wife so we could game together, but she thought i was childish, so i also vot the Anbernic RG40XXV for when im not on the move :).

Should I avoid grey?

My friend has become obsessed with my flip v2 and I’m gonna get him one as a surprise. But Ive heard the grey ones are more brittle for some reason? I have a black one so I was gonna get him another color. Is there any truth to that or what?

Proof the Flip can run any N64 game

A lot of discussion about N64 performance lately, and I disagree with it not having enough power from my own experience, since it’s what I got the system for and play the most of. Out of the box, most OS don’t even run medium titles well. I’ve gotten every N64 game at least at native resolution in the past, but I decided to really push the limits today and even surprised myself. At this point, I feel the entire N64 catalog is not only playable, but it is also a good experience.

So here is 3 minutes of non-PortMaster Banjoo Tooie gameplay at 2x resolution. I’ve only tested the first several minutes for stability, but my experience with this device the past few months suggest it should hold through an entire playthrough. I’m on SpruceOS 4.4.1 using Mupen64Plus Next (Retroarch with Glide64 Core). Of course I’ll do more testing and then post settings in the future.

Banjo Tooie definitely in the top 5 hardest N64 games to emulate in my opinion due to performance demand and graphic glitches. The bottleneck has been audio/GPU, so I feel there is still CPU room left for the other games in the top 5 to also perform well. I’ve also had no issues with Jet Force Gemini and DK64.

FlipOS

Something new is coming to the Miyoo Flip.

Built from the ground up specifically for the Flip.
• No forks
• Emulators built from source
• Fast sleep and wake
• Proper lid support
• Game switching
• Clean, lightweight and native
• A simple, console-like experience
• Built with AI assistance

Built around the hardware, not adapted to it.

Still a work in progress, but it’s coming together.

More soon. 👀

Spruce to knulli

I currently have Spruce OS on my Miyoo flip but wanted to try Knulli OS. What is the best way to do this? I have tried to follow the instructions online regarding gamma bootloader but that will not install. Is there anything special I would need to do to get this started?

Knulli N64 Emulation with Miyoo Flip

I switched over to Knulli to try out its N64 emulation but I'm running into a problem. I want to see if anyone else is having this experience or if they're not.

Libretro Mupen64Plus core with GlideN64
Miyoo Flip V2
Latest Knulli version

Playing Starcraft 64, performance is pretty great until it's not.

For example, I start the first mission, I move the marines and SCVs across the map to Jim Raynor. Once they reach Jim Raynor, usually a slight stutter begins then the performance suddenly tanks and the system locks up. Sometimes I'm able to get past this point without issue, but inevitably the game will lock up when some type of interaction happens between units.

What could be causing this behavior? I'm hoping to find some setting I can adjust that the emulation is tripping over. I can't figure why the game would be running so well then completely lock up.

With Spruce OS, Mupen64Plus-Next Standalone was able to play the game fine, but N64 emulation on Spruce seems like it needs a bit of maintenance. Knulli Libretro Mupen64Plus actually runs better until it locks up.

The other cores don't seem to work.

Libretro: Parallel N64 = Black screen with audio then extreme artifacting
Standalone Mupen64Plus: Glide64MK2 = Black screen with audio
Standalone Mupen64Plus: Rice = No boot
Libretro: Mupen64Plus-Next = runs great but freezes

Edit: So I've formatted and put Spruce OS back on the card, but I had the game lock up in the Standalone Mupen64Plus like what was happening with Libretro Mupen64Plus in Knulli.

I was able to play pretty far before without any lock ups so I'm not sure what I could have done to make it lock up in the standalone with Spruce OS. I've reset the settings and will be testing it more but these system freezes might be unique to my situation somehow. N64 emulation actually isn't too shabby on the device. Not perfect but definitely good enough for a bunch of games.

Do you play N64 on the Miyoo Flip? What's your configuration?

I'm most interested in Spruce OS, but experience with other OSes is welcome. What core are you generally using? What plugin and what settings?

With Spruce OS, it seems like Mupen64plus standalone with the Rice plugin has the best performance, but it's not great a lot of the time and has a lot of graphical artifacting.

Lookin for a bit of advice.

Edit: I'm actually running libretro mupen64plus with glideN64 and performance is actually decent. Tested rogue squadron and it surprisingly runs well. I'm mostly just having trouble with a specific game it seems.

Anyone Customize Their SpruceOS Scripts?

One of my favorite parts about SpruceOS is that it’s all written in Python/shell scripts. Because I’m a coder, I take the opportunity to add my own quality of life changes. I’m looking for more ideas of things to change and was curious if anyone else had modded in their own things? Below are some examples of things I’ve done.

Currently implemented:

  1. Change it so other controllers beside the Flip can navigate the PYUI menus.
  2. Spruce backup will automatically send it to my GoogleDrive
  3. Automatically perform a cloud save sync to my GoogleDrive on emulator launch and shut down.
  4. When launching a NDS game in Drastic, it automatically converts a .sav to .dsv and then back on shut down.

Other future plans:

  1. Make startup script detect if I’m docked or not and change settings accordingly. For example, auto enable Bluetooth, disable lid closer, change auto sleep settings, etc.
  2. A input mapper closer to SteamInput functionality to help make certain games more tolerable.
  3. Have Spruce restore allow me to select the backup I want to restore and also do a backup before overwriting.
