Sat Jul 11, 2026 4:11 am

Useful for people who want to play from their mobile devices like compatible cell phones, AYN Neos, tablets, etc. A use case example is those who use Samsung's DeX desktop mode when their phone is attached to a keyboard, mouse, and monitor/tv. Best performance experienced so far is on the Adreno GPU based Samsung devices using Turnip based gpu drivers.

FAQ Section
1. GPU driver changes can be sought by clicking the app's main setting button, navigating down to Driver Manager, and select the dropdown from Available Online Drivers. Do not install a driver that is unsupported for your chipset. For S25/S26 try first the Turnip-Gen8-v23 and move up from there for performance and stability changes.

2. MangoHUD permits visibility into FPS, other statistics. On the device swipe from the left side of the screen to view the quick menu where you can assign the FPS limiter (suggested at 32), Performance Hud, Frame Multiplier (set to 2x). Keep in mind DeX hard caps at 60 FPS despite the device's ability to push 120+

Highest settings in NWN2 EE with full Shadows, LSFG4x, S26U I get about 120 - 160 FPS at the FAI on a cell phone :

Here is a low watt FPS limited iteration in battery saving mode that permit the runtime around 8 - 9 hours at around 1.6 Watt draw.
