Winlator Guide COMPLETE 

How do I get the controlls to work or how do I install your controlls? :O if I use the template I can move but cant interact as it says "press E" and only the move buttons work 😢

@@misterfisher8862 my co troll scheme is for fallout specifically. There is an "E" key on my co troll scheme as well.

Hermano podrias pasarme por drive o lo que sea el archivo de fallout es uno de mi sueños poder jugarlo pero no encuentro el archivo porfavorrr

Hey I try halo combat evolve but when I started the game I just not wanna start and then I try again but the game say " Halo is running" Can you fix that?

Yessir

How do I run games in windowed mod on winlator?

@@Soresu_68 most games have a popup that lets you mess with settings before it starts. You could also look for the games' ini file in the my games folder

You're welcome =)

Make sure your graphics driver is the right one for your device, just try them all, and also make sure you only have one drive. Dont try to make a new drive. Let me know if you get it to work!

Or maybe you're doing something wrong as there is literal video proof that it works

I literally just downloaded version 1, and it's working. The new updated winlator does not work. Version 3.1 the one I tried the first time, isn't working only version 1

@@omarfa4337 could be that an update broke something for you. Either way, glad you got it working. Enjoy!

😂

Apparently this happens when either the wrong driver is selected or when the I talked was faulty. Try reinstalling or changing drivers to see if it loads.

Yeah if internet support ever gets added this app is gonna explode way more than it already has

And thanks!

Are you using the gog version of the game, and if so, are all the setup files located in the same folder as the exe?

Might be using incorrect settings for your device, not sure

For me it says that i need .net framework 3.5 but when i tried to download. .Net framework 3.5 the download took long and wasn't actually downloading.

Where did you go to download gog fallout 3

Could be a number of things. Could you provide some more details?

its much easier now just download the file and launch it

This happened to me one time when I tried to add an additional storage drive. Just leave the downloads folder as the only drive if you didn't already. Also, make sure the right graphics card is selected. Try going between turnip and virgl, and see if that works. Let me know if this solved it!

One thing you can try is which application you're using to extract, like a file explorer app, and also try extra ting to a different folder, then copy/move to the correct one. Let me know if it works!

Some games aren't supported

Yessir, I love this thing

Did you add an additional drive in the storage options of the last page? Happened to me. Just leave the d drive as the only one if so. If something else, you might have the wrong settings selected for your phone. I think gog games .com is good.

yup....

It might not be in the right spot. Make sure you have it in the correct folder.

​@@demontongue9893all caps

Did you try to add any additional drives besides the default one?

Could you be more specific as to when it's going black

What phone do you have and what graphics driver are you using?

Perhaps some settings need to be changed for you.

Did you use the gog version of the game? If so, did you leave all the setup folders in tact when installing?

Yes I want to find out too

He's using older version of Winlator. Try Winlator AFEI Mod.

You might be installing on a drive that's incompatible. Make a new folder on the "D" drive, aka your phone's download folder. Also make sure the game is the gog version. Let me know if this helps please!

Sounds like you might be using the wrong graphics driver

@@Second_Wind Which driver should I use? You can download the game and try if it works

@@Simone22d91 depends what phone you have

@@Second_Wind samsung galaxy note 10 plus

@@Simone22d91 if it has Qualcomm processor then use the virgL

Change the screen size on games main menu options

Not familiar with that game. As long as theres a gog version for the game it should run

its an old social life platform, was more famous around 2005/2014@@Second_Wind

In the compatibility options, change to windows, not wine for the sound. I talk about it in the video. Let me know if you get it working!

maybe the launcher just lagging remember this is just a beta version

As long as u can find the gog version online, just download the installer, put it in your downloads folder, and then run the installer inside of Winlator. Should work fine!

The dude Finn Dalby left a link to a website with gog games. Check and see if u can find it there maybe. If not, just look up free gog games and I'm sure you'll find a website that has it

Any game exe files .. Bonkheads.exe Bookworm adventure setup.exe Claw.exe

You need games from gog games . Com and you just have to download, then run the setup.exe in Winlator to install

@@Second_Wind thx

Mafia 2 is awesome. I'm not sure exactly whats making it crash, but you could try clicking on all 8 of the CPU cores in the container menu. Also try changing the allocated ram/memory to 4096 instead of the 2048. If that's doesn't work, make sure you're playing the game on the lowest graphics settings to test it. Also, is there a specific part of the game that it always crashes at or something? Let me know!

I encountered this on PC before. Basically, you require the setup files in the disk to be mounted. Just mount the disk with a virtual disk tool (such as deamonTools lite). Then it should work. This does, however, require you to mount the disk every time before you start the game. You'll need to do a but more googling to see how to get it working without having to mount the disk every time, if it even is possible to do so.

There might be missing files. Make sure you are installing the gog version, and make sure you leave all setup files in tact.

Did you install the gog version? Winlator doesn't use internet

What 3d game are you trying to run. If the game is super recent then it's probably going to crash on any device, let alone the 888. Not sure specifically, but I know the turnip driver is for snapdragon

@@Second_Wind American Mcgee's Alice and Half Life 2

@@borjie2727 where did you install the games? Did u put them somewhere other than the d drive?

@@Second_Wind just the downloads folder. D drive

@@borjie2727 weird then, I'm not sure. Maybe it's the games themselves that just dont wanna work? Try fallout 3 if you can, just to see if it'll run. That'll be a control to see if it's your phone/Winlator settings, or the games you were trying to run.

What exactly isnt working?

@@Second_Wind when l open the game they out by herself

@@2Dabi. You probably have the wrong graphics driver selected. Happened to me also u til I had the right one

You just put the four way d pad and make it wsad

That's what happened to me when I was trying to run fallout 3. At first I was using VirGL, but then the author came out with update 1.1 that added support for the newer adreno processors with turnip. Maybe try switching the graphics driver?

No you dont, that's just my game launcher that came built into my phone.

Might not be saving it correctly

Fr 💀

Try switching your graphics driver

Yes you can. Controller or mouse and keyboard

You can make a custom one yourself or just build off the one I have linked in the comments

ive heard somewhere say you can get them from GOG

Gog version

@@Second_Wind Thanks Boss

For now Winlator, depending on what you're playing. Winlator is cool because you get wine and box64/86 all in one package

@@Second_Wind I was just curious if I can play 3dfx era games

Could be that you're phone isn't supported yet. What phone do you have?

@@Second_Wind samsung a03 core

@@thatonesorbetfanofficial that phone isn't really meant for gaming. Might just be that the ram/processor can't keep up. Also try the software graphics driver as it's open source. Let me know how it goes!

Just download the gog version of whatever game you want to your phones download folder, then install using the installer. Try gog games .com. let me know if you get it working!

Normally zip, but you need to extract the setup files first

Probably not. Depends how mid range lol

Gog games .com

​@@Second_WindIs it safe? cause im scared of getting some virus.

@@BaiterMeter was safe for me. All of this is subject to viruses but it's been fine for most people

Did you add any additional drives besides the default one?

@@Second_Wind no i kept the D drive one

@@clarkjade6415 what else happens? Have you tried changing around resolutions and graphics drivers. Hard to diagnose with no details man.

Search gog games .com

Has to be the correct driver. Winlator has directx built in

@@Second_Wind yes ..with LLVMPIPE it runs nice 👍

You might get it to boot up, but I doubt you'd get incredible frames. Let me know if you try it!

@@Second_Wind eh too bad my phone not strong enough to run it, it won't even booted up :')

@@edradscavendgarr5819 oh damn sorry

Gog games .com, download NV, run setup file

@@Second_Wind what exactly do i need to do after i download, i find Fallout NV in "D folder" but it's a file that i can't open

@@zeba_iacb run the setup.exe file to install it

@@zeba_iacb you also have to extra t it first, might be easier to extract before you open winlator

What other settings did you change? Did you add extra folders? If so, don't. Did you try the software driver?

@@Second_Wind i changed everything in every way(except the storage driver) and nothing seems to work

@@kittens0010 could be the device you're using. I'd try reinstalling honestly. Sorry man!

Red magic 8 pro, 12gb ram snapdragon 8 gen 2, adreno 740 I think?

Please explain your question with some detail about your specific problem

drive.google.com/file/d/1fE_3gmQdxEr9-RAi0waB6YBSCHk9_gD7/view?usp=drivesdk

I think the sd 8gen2 beats the dm 9200 in all categories. The 9200 is really close though if money is tight. Check out red magic 8 pro. Pretty cheap for the specs. If you're emulating older games, even a sd8 gen1 would work honestly. Asus rog phones are also pretty solid.

@@Second_Wind thanks man, much appreciated 👍 right now it's either redmi k60pro(sd8gen2) or iqoo neo8 pro(dm9200) and the price difference in my country is 100usd(thats 20 percent cheaper) so perhaps 9200 would be a better choice.

@@johndemi7588 either seem to be a good choice. Although when I looked at the redmi k60 pro, the specs are the same as the red magic 8 pro, but the redmagic is 300usd cheaper. Between the two options you have, go with whatever is cheaper. Also, if you can find a phone with built in gamer triggers, they're great to have for emulation. Good luck, and let me know what you get once you decide!

You should try to set it up when you're not running the container. Before you start the container, look on the side at the touch controls and there should be a 12 button template. Make a copy of that, and then customize to however you need. Let me know if it works!

@@Second_Wind it work thanx

@@Second_Wind but i have other problem the mouse stop clicking when i actif the keymapping

@@AMEGO so you can make two buttons and have one be the right mouse click, one be the left. Copy the setup I use in the video if you want

@@Second_Wind the mouse stop clicking and stop moving around 😅

In the side menu on the left there's a shortcut option. Let me know if it doesn't work!

Im not sure what you mean here.bare you saying use a flash drive to transfer a game?

@@Second_Wind I have a 256GB Sandisk USB. I connected it to my phone. I want to play games off the USB because I don't have enough storage space on my phone. When I try to add the folder in the container, it doesn't work. Not transfer.

@@logicstone1661 for some reason it doesn't work rn to add new drives before the container loads up, at least for me. In the container options, you can scroll all the way to the right where it shows the drives, and then try to add the flash drive as it's own drive, but idk if it'll work. Best best is to take whatever game you're trying to play and copy it to your phone's downloads folder

You might need to change how much ram the phone is using. In the options before you load up the container, the video memory size is set to 2048 by default I believe. You could try and change this to 4096 if it lets you. Usually video memory means ram, especially if you're sure that you have enough storage available. Let me know if this works!

@@Second_Wind i actually followed through your video but the results were still the same, tried change the files directory and copying the game into a different files, same message popped up

@@sakusai7748 maybe when you are installing the game, u can change where it's installing? Like pick a different directory that's still in your downloads folder?

Thanks! Try gog games .com. or just Google free gog games. Good luck!

Thanks man, clear video just like and subscribe hehe

It's night so im just gonna ask that my gpu is Mali G57 Mediatek how to fix black screen I try using the virgl but it didn't work how? It was just black screen and sounds but when it come s to software glitchy and laggy :(

@@Poverty09 u can try the basic software driver, but even if it runs it'll probably be crappy. If VirGL and tru up both don't work, you might need to install the Microsoft vc++ redistributables. There's an offline installer I linked in one of the other comments on here. You could try that!

Try a different graphics driver and let me know!

Black screen also i try any graphics driver but it didnt work

If you wanna play cuphead, I'd suggest trying Skyline. It is a Nintendo Switch emulator that I use for games like Shovel Knight and Hollow Knight so I'm sure it'd run Cuphead.

(Note: Use Custom Drivers and Mess with Options)

As previously mentioned, getting yuzu or skyline will yield better performance than Winlator for cuphead

If you have a phone from the future, yes

You can, I tried games like Darkest Dungeon and it works perfectly.

Depends what kind of phone you have, and if it's available on gog

Snapdragon 8 Gen 2

ive heard GOG works

Yes it works

You just delete the actual file with the file explorer

Hard to navigate the software as it's not like a typical windows os. I'm not sure but please let me know if you figure it out!

@@Second_Wind I gave up, which means playing PC games is pretty much not available. Unless you actually buy them from some place. The majority of us who use emus use ISO. Sadly seems this app won't be worth using for me. Maybe in the future but not today.

Download gog version of game, then install. A desktop shortcut will appear in Winlator, then launch the game like normal!

Usually games have the redistributables in the install package. What game are you trying to install and what phone / CPU chipset

@@Second_Wind nothing too exciting ,I've tried Bioshock, dead island (those are the main two) but no success, BioShock stops installation at about 63% My phone (and I feel this maybe the kicker) is the S21 ultra UK variant exynos chipset.

@@jshakseby2279 Yeah there might not be support for that chipset yet. However, the graphics driver wouldn't affect if the game can install or not, more like if it can render graphics. Are you installing the gog version of these games? Also, does your phone have enough room? If yes to both, is your screen turning off maybe? Happened to me during install of fallout 3 and I have to restart the whole thing.

@@jshakseby2279 also with the gog version of games, sometimes there's multiple setup files that need to be in the same folder the setup.exe program is. Maybe you accidentally deleted one of the setup files? Or, simply got only part of the game when you downloaded it? There's a comment on the video with a website to download games. Its actually the same one I used. Could try that as well.

@@Second_Wind thanks mate I'll take a look into all that , my phone has the storage but (and pardon my ignorance) but what's a "gog" version. I'm good with emulators but PC always has me beat.
