FPse update for Xperia Play ?

Postby Melidian » Mon Apr 03, 2023 10:30 am

Hi,

I am using FPse on my Xperia Play since 2012 when I bought this app and it is running great !

I modded the XPlay a long time ago to get a smooth experience in games using the ROM AuroraPlay 2.0.0 under Gingerbread 2.3.7 and a custom Kernel (Lupus in my case).

It is still running perfectly after so many years and, thanks to FPse, I managed to finish Tomb Raider 1 after an interruption of 24 years (My first run on an old PC was stopped close to the end by a corrupted savefile !) and many other great games...

I see that FPse cannot be found anymore on the Playstore when accessed from the XPeria Play (I hopefully see it using more recent Android phones).
For this reason, my version is stuck at the 11.212.

As XPlay is definitively the phone on which FPse has to run,
Is there a way to benefit from the latest update on XPlay ?

Thanks,

PS : I understand that XPlay is very old and I do not use it anymore as my daily driver. But this is such an amazing emulation machine with this "Slide it open and play!" that I am hoping FPse can be updated a bit further for it !

Google has chosen to not support android version under 5.0.
We have to follow sdk upgrade
And if we want to keep compatibility what we did since 2 years to be align with google rules have to be reversed which could take long time

But I can try to take a look to see if it s still possible to do it quickly in that case I ll update it but on our website

Bonjour Schtruck,

Thank you very much for your answer. I fully understand now why it is not updating anymore.

If you can find some time to have a look at it, it would be great.
If you need a beta tester, my XPlay is still working great and I can help.

Merci beaucoup !

Hi,

I double post to give some useful info.

The SNES emulator SNES9X EX+ of Robert Broglia was just updated on the XPlay, at same version as on my Samsung S20.

Thanks to this example,
It seems that it is possible to continue updating Gingerbread.
Maybe you can contact Robert Broglia and check with him how he proceeds...

Thanks,
