Lemuroid: Easy all in one emulator app for Android (quick setup / tutorial)

[@MrSujano]

Lemuroid has come a long way, and continues to get better! Definitely keep your eye on this one!

[@hyper_6546]

I have to agree , though even if it is simplistic , the customizable talent of Retroarch is better and useful for users who want *pro stuff.* Besides , it has been some time since an update came to Lemuroid. But it was good , that it made me fight myself to choose which to go with : Lemuroid or Retroarch. Not every emulators / frontends make us confused. I think that it is a quality of its.

[@Gawdkiller]

Thanks for the review.

Only problem with Retroarch is the sound issue in DS

[@thiagoribeiro6840]

Great video, great work! Some time ago I tried emulators running on android. Now I can see it has improved a lot!

[@blutarheel1]

Thank you so much for this video. I'm going to try Lemuroid on my older phone right now. Oh, I'm way intimidated of Retroarch. I've tried it 4 or 5 times and end up deleting it after getting confused. I guess I'm not too smart.

[@Durkhead]

It's not you there's a lot of settings and there all in weird places the thing I hate the most is changing controller settings it drives me nuts

[@Agostoic]

Your not alone there pal, I get the gist of RetroArch but it can be totally a chore to setup

Totally love using Lemuroid. I just hope that the devs will eventually put up an actual "frontend interface" like Daijishō.

Even though I prefer retroarch because I'm used to it, it's nice to see a alternative.

Too bad that it does not have a cheats feature

[@polrusstomakriss9001]

Big also, I loved the presentation that was displayed and will be following leemuroid updates and thank you for this and this sounds like a good app to have it all in one than scramble on a hunt for different emulators

Pro tip : if your going to play ds games switch immediately to the melon ds core and thank me later

[@bojidarmartinov5949]

Or get drastic

[@cleanserious09]

@@bojidarmartinov5949 yeah but it cost money but thats kinda fine

[@sakataslays]

@@cleanserious09 definitely worth the price. Be aware that there is currently an issue with Android 11 scoped storage though. It prevents you from browsing ROMs. I got it to work by transferring files to the Drastic folder on my internal storage. It seems kind of hit or miss though.

[@eternalburn9613]

My rom won't show up on melon :(

[@iamsheel]

@@cleanserious09 what? I already got it for free from google play

[@0rdnajela664]

I really love this app, weirdest thing though, on the DS emulator I honestly find it runs smoother on 2x speed, but I encounter lag running it normally. Not a huge issue for me because I pretty much only use 2x but still a weird issue

[@Tofu3435]

In settings from the main menu switch the core to melon ds, faster than desmume.

[@Lilyp4dz]

How do u put it on 2x?

[@0rdnajela664]

@@Lilyp4dz In game you can tap a little gear for options, one of which is 2x speed

[@henrymora2960]

I wish the developer update it soon improving the graphics quality and also the ok screen buttons to be able to move the R and L buttons in any part of the screen

[@ZaneDragonBorn]

The app is really good, but honestly, I want a highly powerful emulator that had good UI. And I meant modern UI like Material You. Hopefully Lemuroid will someday get more advanced and optimized. Wish they had a place to submit feedback tho

[@Thuglife-nm1kt]

Thanks a TON for letting us know about this amazing & simple emulator... watching the retro arch tutorials... I had understood that I will never be able to play retro games on TV or PC... this app works fine on Android TV as well... obviously, the graphics r pixelated but still, one can play them on TV... first the app was not detecting any of the game files...& i thought that this app is a waste but then as soon as I organized all the game files in one single folder & directed the emulator to search in that specific folder...BOOM....all of the games appeared & r running... now I am planning to add some more sega games

[@squeakyknee]

Honestly, it's the best emulator for android. It looks pretty, it functions with nearly no effort, no ads, good controls. While Retroarch is fantastic on PC, I've never been able to manage getitng it working properly on my phone. It's always just such a slog to get it semi-functional. So till now, I've been using a bunch of individual emulators for each system. Some of which aren't great, have ads etc. Having everything have a matching UI and control scheme, plus the auto application of system filters is just 😩😩🙌🙌 Hopefully in the furture they get 3DS Citra support and (loftie goals) Aether SX2 support for a truly all in one on mobile.

[@toninhopavan2]

It lacks a fast forward button on screen though

[@deepflake5851]

Thanks for the video ! I tried it, it works great but has some flaws : - I can only set ONE path for the ROMs, but as I have some roms on the phone and others on the sd card, I can't access all of my ROMs, so it is a big flaw - it did not detect a single one of my arcade or neo geo roms, and I have thousands of those. I have several folders, one for CPS, one for MVS, one for the rest, doesn't matter, not a single ROM is detected. - there is a video filter set by default for each emulator, that I cannot turn off, as this video filter is checked by default as "none" in the video filters options. It is a very promising solution and if there was a way to correct the flaws I mentioned it would definitely be the ultimate emulator on Android !

[@fraenzchen85]

How about putting your rom folders in one folder then?

[@inakicaubet]

Deep flake? Salut mec 😂 pour les roms arcade, l'emulation est un peu light. Beaucoup de jeux ne passe pas. Concernant la neogeo, je n'arrive a rien faire tourner sur lemu. Pour la localisation des roms, j'ai mis tous mes dossiers sous un meme dossier, lemu filtre et classe les jeux par support. Voila ou j'en suis

I make a folder and I put a zipped pokemon emerald in it, and then on lemuroid I pick that very same folder containing Pokemon emerald, and it just doesn't seem to work for me. What am I doing wrong?

[@renaldyhaen]

I don't like the position of "setting button" at bottom-right, it's annoying and I'm always worried if I will push this button accidentally when playing games. And for other control button too. I hope I can move them more bottom, because the control button too high for my thumbs and it will cover some display too. But the other things are great. I know that NDS, PSP, and other new consoles can't run properly because my low spec phone. But I feel it more fun to play GBA or SNES in this emulator than other apps. And most important, I love the UI, very fresh and beautiful.

@@MrSujano Actually incorrect. Lemuroid is a fork from Retroarch, if you read the app description you'll see that. In any case there's no in game option to change controls. I'd love to use it but without a gamepad it's useless.

It was a very good and informational vid overall but i was trying to figure out how to add ds games onto lemuroid

[@sumit92artist]

It doesn't let the users remap all buttons (like the sticks and D-pad) which is a huge problem. I generally don't recommend this emulator to people for this specific reason. Often, it's better if people have a choice of whether they want to play with the D-pad or Joystick. I can't suggest Retroarch to beginners either, which leaves only the standalone apps like Broglia's.
