Fex – FEX Release FEX-2512
๐จ FEX-Emu v2512 just dropped โ and itโs a GAME CHANGER for retro & modern gaming on ARM! ๐ฎ
Say goodbye to “FEXInterpreter” in your task manager โ now your real game names show up! ๐ฏ
JIT crashes? Gone. We auto-restart with a bigger buffer if things get tight โ smoother gameplay, zero panic. ๐น๏ธ
Code caching? Foundationโs laid. Soon: lightning-fast game launches after the first run. ๐
CPU core count? FIXED. Retro emulators and multi-threaded apps now see the real number of cores โ massive speed boosts.
io_uring? Temporarily disabled (ABI issues), but Node.js and SteamRT4 work again. ๐
LRCPC2 instruction errata on Neoverse CPUs? Patched โ no more memory ordering bottlenecks in old games.
Plus: x87 stack fixes, glxtest bugs squashed, alloca leaks sealed, and deps updated (fmt, xxhash, catch2).
FEXConfig GUI? Smoother than ever. RootFS setup on Ubuntu 24.04+? Easier than ever.
Think of it as QEMUโs cooler, faster cousin โ built for gamers who want to run DOS, Windows 98, or modern Proton titles on a Pi 5 or M1. ๐ฅ๏ธ๐ฅ
